Climbing Up to The Top Summit novel Chapter 266

Harvey York smiled. "Shirley Ryan, why are you behaving like when you’re back in university? Randomly lecturing me on life lessons?"

"Stop joking around! Our university mates had strong opinions about you in our last reunion. Why don't you find a decent job instead of loitering around the whole day?" Shirley was worried and nervous for him. "Do you think that you're happy now? You're willing to be a hustler for the sake of earning a few bucks. Why don't you find a better job like in security to have some peace of mind?"

Shirley treated Harvey exceptionally well. She was still concerned for Harvey although he was at this dejected state.

Harvey reacted the same way he usually did in the past. He stretched out his hand and held Shirley's face in his hand. "Honestly, I do regret not listening to you all those years. I haven't learned my lesson. However, I'm quite well now."

Although he was a live-in son-in-law for three years, h e did not toss this identity away. He had become the CEO of York Enterprise and did not for a moment feel unhappy.

He was happy although he had a bit of conflict with Mandy at the hospital earlier.

"You..." Shirley raised an eyebrow. "You’re not making any progress here."

Shirley was slightly disappointed as she said this. She decided to not advise Harvey any longer and pointed a t the car at the side instead. "Forget it, I won't say more. You’ve scratched Senior Zabel's car. Let's not report to the police. Just pay him some money for the repair."

At this point, Jerry Zabel walked forward. His face had turned unpleasant when he saw Harvey holding Shirley’s face in his hand earlier. He snorted coldly," Harvey, I won't take this to heart as a sign of respect for Shirley. Give me two thousand and I'll bring the car for repairs."

Two thousand? What was he thinking?

Harvey was rendered speechless. His shared electric bike was badly damaged, yet Jerry’s car only suffered a few scratches. Furthermore, he was the one who bumped into him. This was not Harvey’s responsibility.

The total cost of his Honda Odyssey was thirty thousand. There was only some scratch on the paint and he wanted to claim two thousand? This b*stard must have gone crazy thinking about money all the time.

Jerry seemed to have figured out Harvey's thoughts. H e replied in a matter of fact manner, "Harvey, I know what you're thinking. You're thinking that I was the one who hit you, right? However, you do know that this is a parking space for normal cars. This is not the place for an electric bike to park!"

"You don't have a car of your own and you're bringing a beautiful lady out. I understand that you want to show off by parking your electric bike here at your own comfort. However, taking a parking space is not a morally upright behavior. Do you understand?"

Shirley then had a change of thought. Something was amiss. Harvey parked his bike here and brought a beautiful lady along. Could it be...

"Harvey, have you come here for work? I heard that Niumhi Hotel had recently hired a group of people. Are you one of them?" Shirley looked on in admiration. It was not such a bad idea for Harvey to come here to work even if he was just washing plates a t Niumhi Hotel.

It did not come across her mind at all that Harvey was here to spend money.

Niumhi Hotel's western restaurant not only required booking, but their food was also extremely expensive. A normal person’s monthly wage would not be able to pay for even one meal. It was impossible for Harvey to spend money here looking at his circumstances.

She looked at his poor looking appearance and thought that he should be either working as a security guard or was here to wash plates.

"Harvey, if you don't pay that two thousand today, I will make you lose your job!" Jerry stared coldly at Harvey. "I'm a VIP here. All it takes is one call to complain and you're screwed!"
