Chapter 13
Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
“Huh?” Harvey was stunned for a moment and forgot to swallow the steak in his mouth. Why did he not know when this was going to happen?

Xynthia was even more disgusted when she saw Harvey gobbling. She said coldly, “I’m not afraid to tell you. Brother Don has officially proposed marriage to the Zimmer family. He will send the dowries tonight. If you are smart enough, just don’t do anything. If you aren’t…”

Xynthia sneered when she said this. Although the Zimmer family ran a legitimate business, they still had a few bodyguards in the family. If this loser wanted to cause trouble, they would surely knock him down.

“Well, everyone, keep quiet. Senior has something to announce!”

At the top position, Senior Zimmer reached out his hand and knocked on the table. He anticipated and said, “You should all have heard about the news, right? Not sure why, but the president of York Enterprise has suddenly changed. The new president has terminated all the investments that have been negotiated before. An additional 5 billion dollars will be funded to invest…”

“I don’t know how mysterious the new president is, but his appearance is a great opportunity for the Zimmer family!”

“Many families and businesses in Niumhi have been affected. It can be said that there’ll be a major reshuffle in Niumhi…”

“The Zimmer family has been considered a wealthy family in Niumhi over the years. But let's ask ourselves honestly, we are just a second-class family…”

“If we want to have greater influence in Niumhi and want the Zimmer family to grow further, what we have now is insufficient…”

“If we—the Zimmer family want to become a first-class family, and even a top-class family with influence in South Light in the future, then we must not miss this opportunity!”

“As long as we can cooperate with York Enterprise, as long as we could get on with the new president, as long as we can get a share of the 5 billion dollars! Then, we will be able to do whatever we want in Niumhi!”

The members of the Zimmer family looked at each other in silence after Senior Zimmer had finished speaking.

Cooperating with York Enterprise? Getting on with the new president?

Everyone knew that this was an opportunity, let alone the Zimmer family. Who in Niumhi did not want to cooperate with York Enterprise? Who did not want to get to know the new president?

However, York Enterprise was backed by the Yorks in South Light. They would surely look down upon a second-class family like the Zimmer family.

The Zimmer family wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to grow. However, they seemed to be daydreaming because the possibility was too low.

Senior Zimmer’s face darkened seeing that no one responded. He said with displeasure. “Why? You are all so active when you are taking bonuses. Now when it’s time to run errands, all of you are backing out like cowards! A bunch of losers!”

The eldest son of the Zimmer family, Mandy’s uncle—Sean Zimmer knocked on the table and said, “Father, what you said is good. But the problem is that we have never succeeded in getting York Enterprise’s investments for so many years. Furthermore, they have changed to a new president now. How could things be so easy?”

Senior Zimmer looked at him and said coldly, “If things are so easy, I can just solve them with a single call. Do I need to discuss with you all?”

Zack’s eyes suddenly brightened. He stood up and said, “Grandfather, Don must know who the new president is since he is working there. He should be able to help us get this investment.”

“Didn’t he just propose marriage to Mandy? We will be a family as long as Mandy marries him. Although we may not fully get the 5 billion dollars, we can still aim for a few hundred million. If we get it, then wouldn’t we be well-developed?”

“Don Xander…” Senior Zimmer slightly focused and was very satisfied with Don.

He then looked at Mandy and said in an unquestionable tone. “Mandy, Don has always been in love with you. Moreover, we—the Zimmer family need your help. Marry him.”

Mandy was startled and did not know what to say. So, was he forcing her to divorce? But…

Other members of the Zimmer family had already spoken before Mandy could say anything.

“Mandy, we need this investment!”

“Yes, without the investment, we would probably go bankrupt!”

“This is a good opportunity to get rid of your useless husband. You have to seize it!”

“It can bring investment for the Zimmer family. You will also have a rich and handsome husband.”

Mandy was speechless.

At this moment, the members of the Zimmer family stood up one by one, trying to persuade Mandy. In their opinion, this was the best way to get the investment.

They heard that Don was quite prominent in York Enterprise.

If he was willing to help the Zimmer family, it would be excellent.

With this money, the entire Zimmer family could advance to the next level!

Lilian then stood up and said, “Father, what a coincidence. Don called me yesterday and said that he wanted to come over to make an announcement. I have invited him for dinner today.”

“Really?” Senior Zimmer stood up with excitement. “Bring him here!”

Lilian was pleased to see Senior Zimmer’s expression. It seemed that she had done nothing wrong. Her daughter could finally get rid of that useless husband. She could also enjoy the glory and wealth. Thank God!

Suddenly, the lights in the hall dimmed. The lamp near the door lit up, and then a chic figure walked in.

    All eyes fell on Harvey once more. Everyone wanted to see what the legendary Representative Harvey York would choose to do at such a pivotal moment.In such a sensitive time, a single word or move could decide the fate of Grand City itself.Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at everyone. After a while, he chuckled. "Oh, Emery. Dan. Do you really want to see me openly stand up and try to steal the position of mayor or shrink back in cowardice?"If I choose to fight, I'll have to fight with the Seven Families to the bitter end. One wrong move and I will be completely ruined. If I choose to back down, the Martial Arts Alliance will lose its representative, and Grand City will be none of my concern anymore. But why should I choose to walk the path you lay out for me? Why should I choose at all?"With that, Harvey moved at blinding speed and immediately appeared right in front of Wenzel. Then, in the next moment, the Representative's badge was now in Wenzel's hand.Harvey smiled. "T

    "Did you not hear a word I said?" Harvey ignored the eight priests in yellow robes approaching him and simply gave the Hierophant a calm gaze."If you want my badge, fight me. These nobodies you called to fight me are useless. Why don't you try it out yourself? I believe if you're willing to do it, I might even go easy on you out of kindness."Everyone choked when they heard Harvey's words as they looked at him in disbelief.Go easy on her?Out of kindness?Against the Hierophant?Harvey didn't give a shred of respect to the Hierophant at all! When she wanted his badge, he simply humiliated her!The Hierophant's expression turned cold. "What's the meaning of this? Are you trying to stage a coup?"Harvey smiled. "Don't misunderstand me. It's not that I'm trying to stage anything. It's just that I have been left with no choice. I hope you won't mind this."His words might sound helpless, but the tone was filled with indifference. Every word he said was humiliating the Hierophant

    Or perhaps, Emery was showing submission because there was more to gain.Meanwhile, Wenzel's expression had finally returned to normal after it shifted a few times. He stepped forward with a smile, a decision had already been made.Harvey becoming Grand City's next mayor would be ideal. He had already considered it for some time. It would be even better if Harvey married his daughter.However, just when Wenzel wanted to step forward, the Hierophant spoke coldly. "Self-interest? Public good? What kind of a joke is this? The reason you do all this is so you can disgrace Grand City, so that your so-called Top Ten Families can stand above us at least once. Am I wrong? Well, congratulations. You've succeeded. My birthday celebration is ruined. Happy now?"This matter is now over. For the sake of that man from your family, I won't take your life today. But you will get out of here now! If you speak another word, don't expect me to show you any more mercy!"The Hierophant waved her hand,

    Emery burst into laughter. "Don't worry, Mr. Dan! If I'm bold enough to represent all the Top Ten Families, the Five Hidden Families, and the Four Pillars to support Mr. Harvey, it then means I have both the sincerity and the means to see it…""Enough! This is over!" A calm but commanding voice rang out. It was so overwhelmingly powerful that everyone subconsciously wanted to get down on their knees. Then, several figures emerged as a crowd surged forward.Harvey narrowed his eyes and saw that all of Emery's bodyguards had been struck away by the powerful aura. They coughed out blood when they slammed into the ground. All of their faces were twisted in agony as they struggled.Then, eight figures in yellow robes appeared and surrounded both Harvey and Emery.Then, the voice appeared again when a woman wearing white robe appeared, her age unknowable. Her beauty was impeccable and was one of grace and maturity. There was a red mark between her brows, making her look mysterious and co

    "According to Grand City's rule, whoever is the Representative will be the next mayor of Grand City. Isn't this how you managed to become the mayor back in the day? You're not going to deny this now, are you?"Emery then turned to look at Wenzel, who stood in the limelight."I believe that we should officially name Harvey as the next mayor today and on this very occasion. Only when he has the title will Grand City know peace. There's nothing more important right now than this!"Emery then raised his arms and cried out, "Congratulations, Mr. Harvey York! Congratulations to Grand City as well!"Among the crowd, many of those who represented the Top Ten Families and Five Hidden Families stepped forward."Congratulations, Mr. Harvey!""Congratulations to Grand City!"Wenzel's eyes became sharp as he stared at Harvey, trying to determine whether Harvey had orchestrated all of this.Harvey's expression remained calm, but he was secretly having a headache. This situation today was a t

    Emery smiled faintly as he said to the Priestess, "Normally speaking, the Top Ten Families, the Five Hidden Families, and the Four Pillars all have no authority to meddle in Grand City's affairs. However, I come today bearing their only will."Emery stepped forward and loudly announced, "The Top Ten Families, the Five Hidden Families, and the Four Pillars all nominate Representative Harvey York as Grand City's next mayor. From this moment on, we stand with him!"There was only silence during the moment Emery announced those words.Everyone thought that there would be a showdown today between Wenzel and the Hierophant. Dan's faction might even join in. Truly, it was a game of thrones made real.No one expected that Emery would suddenly appear and present all of them with such a shocking announcement.
