Harvey York's Rise to Power



Chapter 95

The Zimmer family were displaying such hospitality and although Wendy Sorrell and Yvonne Xavier were both embarrassed, they politely sat down. They were not intimidated by the Zimmer family. However, they remembered that the CEO's wife belonged to the Zimmer family, so they needed to show some manners. Else, if word gets out that people of their standings were being rude, they might even lose their future meals.

Yvonne and Wendy sat at the center seats of the main table. Beside them, Senior Zimmer, Sean Zimmer, and Zack Zimmer all sat in turn. On the other side, Yohann Stone, Zachariah Brooke, and the rest of the family heads sat down too. These people all had high standings in the city of Niumhi. Senior Zimmer did not dare to be discourteous.

However, when the younger generation of the Zimmer family saw this scene, their eyes were about to burst with rage. This b*stard, Zack, had prosperous luck indeed. He did not only manage to have Wendy come along, he even got Yvonne to attend the banquet.

"Two beautiful women came hand in hand today. You really gave me some face today. I will not be modest about it anymore, let's first offer a toast to these ladies!" Zack laughed in elation. He was ecstatic with delight. If he could grab both ladies tonight, he would be over the moon.

When he thought about this, he instinctively glanced over Mandy who was seated at the last seat. He was pleased.

'Mandy, did you think that you are really capable? Did you not say that you're able to win over the investment contract from York Enterprise? Just wait and see. You will be kicked out of the Zimmer family soon.'

"Senior Zimmer, are you not going to introduce us?" After three rounds of wine, Yohann Stone exclaimed this out loud. His eyes never left Yvonne from the beginning.

Yvonne was just like the new CEO. Both of them had low profiles. It was hard to meet her, let alone invite her for a meal.

Yohann himself needed the investment from York Enterprise. Hence, when he heard news that Yvonne was coming to the Zimmer family, he sprinted over immediately. He was now shocked to see the capability of the Zimmer family. The fact that they were able to invite Secretary Xavier over already spoke volumes. This really proved the competence of the Zimmer family.

Senior Zimmer had to return the favor, so he chuckled and said, "Secretary Xavier, this is the family head of the Stone family of Niumhi. The Stone family also handles real estate. The Zimmer family has collaborated with them for many years now."

Yvonne was quite speechless, but she politely replied, "I see. Nice to meet you, Manager Stone."

"There's no need to be so polite. Here, this is my business card. We would like to invite Secretary

Xavier over to our humble abode for a meal whenever you are free. We would be extremely honored," Yohann smiled and said.

Yvonne did not accept the card but frowned instead.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Stone. Our company has rules that we are not allowed to casually attend dinners."

Yohann's expression changed that instant but he quickly smiled and replied, "Of course, of course. Your company has strict rules. People like us have lots to learn from you!"All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

When he was saying this, the expression in Yohann' s eyes changed as he turned to look at Senior Zimmer. Who would have known that the Zimmer family had found a pot of gold! Yvonne would not give Yohann any face yet was willing to come over to visit the Zimmer family. This in itself really said a lot.

Yvonne's face was twisted with irked frowns. They had only come today to return some things and did not expect the family heads of different families would turn up. It was Harvey York who made the decision to cancel their project collaborations. She would not dare to come and meet these people on her own initiative and without permission. She felt like she was sitting on a cushion with needles and wanted to just stand up a couple of times.

Wendy felt wronged too. If she knew that the situation would escalate to this scale, she would not have asked Yvonne to tag along.

At this time, Zachariah Brooke laughed out loud.

"Old Man Zimmer, I heard that your business center won some investments from York Enterprise. What good news! Don't forget that when you earn some money in the future, to give us some of your scraps when you have meat to eat!"

Senior Zimmer replied modestly, "We actually have not had their agreement. However, the contract is indeed in the middle of negotiation. Of course, whether we would obtain the contract will depend on what the Yorks think."

Senior Zimmer was humble, but the people around him did not think so. Everyone's eyes turned toward Yvonne. He had specially invited the secretary to the CEO over, and he was telling them that the contract was not written in stone yet. Who was he trying to cheat?

Before Senior Zimmer could continue, Yvonne could not stand it anymore and stood up. "Dear family heads, please do not misunderstand. We did not come over here today to discuss matters pertaining to the contract with the Zimmer family. We came due to private matters. Anything related to contracts, please come to our company to discuss. This has been stipulated by the company."

There were too many people present at the time. Yvonne could not directly tell them about the private matter. The Zimmer family was after all the CEO's wife's family. They needed to show some respect in this regard.

Senior Zimmer smiled when he heard this.

"Secretary Xavier is right. We're here just to talk about casual topics. We're not here to discuss business!"

Wendy tugged on Yvonne from the side. The chatter stopped once again.
