Harvey York's Rise to Power

Chapter 99

"What!?"

The audience were shocked to the core. He had lost millions worth of interest to buy luxurious items? Had he gone mad? When they looked at his mannerism, they thought that he could not have faked it.

It was no wonder he was able to win over Wendy Sorrell, having splashed that much money on her. Was there any woman who would be able to refuse that?

"H-He is willing to use millions to woo a girl? That truly is astonishing!"

"That's right. It is one matter for a man to be rich, whether he is willing to spend the money on you is another!"Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"How admirable. If my husband treats me this way, I would even be willing to die!"

Numerous women were talking! Millions worth of luxurious items? That would mean that all the classic items and in season trends have been gathered? Any woman who claimed to not admire this move would be lying!

Many women were currently wishfully gazing at Zack Zimmer.

Senior Zimmer nodded profusely. His grandson was too outstanding. He knew how to capture a woman' s heart. He knew what to say and what not to say. The Zimmer family would be worry free in the future with such a bright heir!

"Look at you! Now look at them! You are truly an embarrassment!" Lilian Yates could not help to scold Harvey York. She almost spat at the sight of her live-in son-in-law. She was not concerned about the standards that he had, but of the comparison between the two men. Lilian felt that her live-in son-in-law was utterly useless. "Mandy, I'm warning you. You better get a divorce after this.

I will look for a better husband for you! I don't believe that we cannot win the limelight from that b *stard Zack!"

"Mom, why are you still talking about this!" Mandy replied half-heartedly. She looked at Wendy with admiration. Which woman would not anticipate such a scene?

Harvey did not say a word. He looked forward and felt awkward.

Had Zack gone mad? Why would he suddenly propose to Wendy? Had the water flooded the brain of this lunatic?

It was then that Zack knelt on one knee in front of

Wendy. He gently said, "Wendy, I've personally picked this engagement ring for you. Please marry me!"

Zack pulled out a ring box from his pocket and opened it.

"Wow..."

All the people present started to surround them at that instant. A string of continuous incredulous gasps was heard.

"F*ck, this... Isn't this the rumored pigeon egg ring?"

The crowd could not believe their eyes. The ring was not eye-catching, but the moissanite diamonds on it was the fabled pigeon egg. That was worth at least ten carats.

"T-This was the pigeon egg that was auctioned three years ago?" The family head of the Brooke family, Zachariah Brooke, walked over with his mouth wide open.

Anyone from the upper-class society of Niumhi would recognize this item. It appeared in a secret auction three years ago and was bought over by a mysterious buyer with the high price of thirty million. Who knew that it would make its appearance today? It was too shocking!

Zack was overdoing it. How could he take this item out, all for the sake of Wendy?

"What? Pigeon egg?"

Harvey stood up from his chair at that moment. His face was twisted with curious frowns.

The pigeon egg that was bought from the auction in Niumhi three years ago?

If he remembered correctly, he was the person who bought this diamond three years ago. Although he left this item with the York family, how was it possible for them to take this item out to sell when it was considered as the property of the York family?

The real thing was with the York family. Which meant that this supposed pigeon egg...

"This is fake, isn't it?" Harvey subconsciously blurted out.

"What did you say, you loser?" Zack jumped up from his kneeling stance and pointed at Harvey with fury.

All eyes turned toward Harvey at that point.

"I'm sorry that I didn't hold back my words."

Harvey shook his head. "That pigeon egg looks too fake."

"What nonsense are you spewing!" Zack's face and neck were flustered red as he bellowed out in nervousness.

"Harvey, don't simply say things like that." Mandy lightly patted on Harvey's hand. If Harvey continued to enrage Zack, he would surely be in dire consequences later.

As expected, Zack coldly chucked. "You're just a live-in son-in-law with a daily pocket money of a hundred. What do you understand about diamonds? Are you kidding me? Today is my big day, so I will not be calculative toward you. However, you need to leave immediately!"

"May I have a look?"

Yvonne Xavier gently shoved over and glanced over at Harvey. Her voice was rife with restlessness.

She was deeply shocked as well. She was the one who personally helped Harvey to buy this pigeon egg three years ago. How could it end up here? 

Senior Zimmer stopped Zack from continuing to go mad when he heard this. He waved at her and said, " No problem at all. Be my guest, Secretary Xavier!" Yvonne dashed to the front; her beautiful eyes blinked while staring at the pigeon egg. She then instinctively took out her left hand. She wore a ring on her delicate finger. However, this ring was worn on her index finger. The diamond ring she wore was worth one carat at most. When compared with the pigeon egg, it was like a child meeting its mother.
