Harvey York's Rise to Power

Chapter 131

"I'm okay, sir, but you..." Yvonne Xavier was worried. How could a CEO with a high status be wronged in this way, at a degrading place such as this to boot?

Harvey York said faintly, "I'm fine. Let their president come and see us. We'll stop using this bank for my accounts, the company's accounts, and the company's investment funds."

"Yes, sir!" Yvonne agreed immediately. When she looked into Harvey's eyes, she became filled with determination. There was no doubt that the CEO was indeed the CEO. One simple command from him alone would determine the life and death of this bank. She thought that this decision was irreversible, even if the president did come.

"Are you still pretending? You still have the guts to play pretend? It really is a pity that you didn't go on to become actors!" Sheri Wilson chided. "You! Take the card!"

At her behest, one of the security guards quickly grabbed the Amex Black Card from Harvey.

Harvey chuckled coldly. He offered no resistance and simply allowed them to take the Amex Black Card away.

At the office of the bank, Sheri was beaming with pride when she handed the Amex Black Card to the chief manager.

The chief manager patted on his beer belly and smiled widely. "Lil' Sheri, you've performed well this time. You are prudent and meticulous, true to the nature of our business. You relentlessly protected our client's assets and kept them safe. I will report this to the president and will surely commend you for this. I'm confident that you will be promoted soon. Don't forget this old man when that time comes!"

Sheri respectfully answered, "What are you talking about, Chief Manager? Isn't this practice of protecting our client, your everyday lesson for us? This success can be attributed to you too. We should bear that in mind when someone from the head office comes over."

"Hahaha, not bad, not bad. I knew that Lil' Sheri here is a smart girl. If that's the case, rest assured I will evaluate your performance highly during the appraisal. You don't have to worry about the year- end bonus too. Whatever I gain is also your gain!" The chief manager laughed out loud.

"Right, you better get going first. I will report this to the management at the head office."

"Yes, sir!" Sheri bent over slightly and retreated from the chief manager's office. When she had left, she held her head high instead. She did not expect to reap such rewards when she was merely on duty that day.

At the chief manager's office.

The chief manager quickly made a call. Although they were only on the phone, he nodded and bent over while speaking. "President, it's me. Pardon my rudeness for disturbing you, but I need to report a matter of high importance. A thief robbed one of our major client's Amex Black Cards and attempted to conduct business with us here..."

"Yes, yes, yes. The card number is..."

"Sure! We will welcome your arrival!"

After hanging up, the chief manager was brimming with pride. He could hop on this opportunity to get to know a major client whose net worth is billions. This was an opportune moment for a bank manager to be promoted. He had heard that there was a vacancy for a vice president at the head office. He was hoping that this major client would recommend him for the position.

The chief manager almost salivated at this thought.

At the security room of the bank.

Harvey's old-fashioned phone suddenly rang. He glanced over and noticed that the number was from the bank's private customer service number. He was about to pick his phone up when Sheri walked in and snatched it away. She did not bother to look at the caller and said, "Hey you br*t, do you think that you're in a park? You're being detained and still have the guts to secretly pick up your phone? What's this?! An old-fashioned phone! You poor b*stard!"

Sheri flung it away with powerful force, and Harvey's old-fashioned phone was hurled to a corner of the security room. The rapid rings of the phone stopped abruptly.

"You've gone overboard..."

Harvey's initially unperturbed face changed drastically, and his expression took on a ghastly appearance. That phone was the only present he had ever received from Mandy Zimmer. Yet it was ruined by this b*tch who looked down on others?

Bang!

Harvey stood up. His one kick sent the table in front of him flying.

"How dare you!"

Without any warning, the nearest security guard charged forward furiously and prepared to hit Harvey with his electric rod.

Harvey did not even bother to glance at the security guard, and kicked him from the side.

Thud!

The security guard was sent flying backwards and crashed into the corner of the security room. He winced in pain, unable to rise.

Harvey's eyes were raging with fury. No one saw this coming. The docile lamb whom the security guard arrested moments ago had suddenly turned ferocious.

Another security guard instinctively went toward Yvonne and grabbed her, intending to use her as a hostage to threaten against Harvey.

Harvey struck out his right hand and gripped hard at the security guard's fingers. "She's mine. Who allowed you to touch her?"

Crack!

A crisp crack rang in the air. Harvey had broken the security guard's fingers.

Kick! Thud! Punch! Thud!Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

The rest of the security guards rushed forward to attack Harvey. However, his kicks and fighting skills sent each and every one of them flying to various corners of the room. None of them had the strength to get back up afterwards.
