Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 2585
Chapter 2585
“That item is mine! I’m buying it for seven hundred and fifty million right now!”
“According to the auction hall’s rules, the highest bidder always wins.”
“Even if you’re confirming the bid, you need to call three times before slamming the gavel!”
“But you locked in on the lower bid without giving the others any chance to bid?”
“What’s the meaning of this?!”
“Are you conspiring with The Empire of the Sun that Never Sets to sell them something that belongs to the people of Country H?!”
“You people should know what this item represents!”
“This belonged to the Head Coach!”
“You’re already disrespecting him enough to auction something like this…”
“But now, you’re even deciding who gets to buy it?! Are you insulting the Head Coach?!”
“How dare you, you brat?!” The middle-aged priestess screeched back, livid.
“Do you know the consequences of smearing the Five Virtues Temple?!”
Young priestesses of the Five Virtues Temple appeared from all directions, all shooting Harvey cold glares.
If Harvey were to spout any more slander, they would take action with haste.
“Smearing you, you say?” Harvey scoffed, repulsed.
“Do you honestly think others would go through the trouble when you’re already doing that on
your own?”
“Give me a good explanation, then. If it’s good enough, I’ll turn around and leave right this instant!”
“Of course… I am not the only one who has to be satisfied with your explanation. The same goes to all the participants here! Am I right, everyone?!”
Harvey tried to use the crowd in his favor.
But since the Five Virtues Temple was involved in the situation, nobody dared voice their support.
Harvey’s name had become quite well-known at this point. Everyone knew of his achievements during his stay in Hong Kong and Las Vega. They were sure he wasn’t just an ordinary man.

Yet… Despite his status and identity, there was no way he could even be close to challenging the
Five Virtues Temple.
He didn’t have the right to do this.
Murphy and Sharon laughed derisively at Harvey’ s bold words.
‘Has this man lost it?’
‘He’s demanding an explanation from the Five Virtues Temple?’
The Five Virtues Temple would always do as their hearts desired. Everyone could only abide by their rules, and the temple had never needed to explain anything to anyone.
“Forget it, Sir York! We can’t go against them!”
Leslie was getting anxious. She was worried that Harvey would try to challenge someone way out of his league.
“We have no need to explain anything to anyone.”
The distant voice could be heard once again.

“But seeing as you’re Mordu’s Longmen branch leader and the prince of South Light, I’ll make it an exception!”
Teal’s cold tone lost its composed quality and was brimming with anger.
“Number one, you didn’t come here to buy anything from the auction. You’re here to cause Murphy and Sharon trouble!”
“You bought absolutely nothing since the beginning, and you got Leslie Clarke to speak for you only after Sharon made sure that the item belonged to the Head Coach.”
“Only after Leslie’s rights were revoked did you start bidding!”
“As a man, you wouldn’t even dare do it yourself when you’re scheming others. Yet, you’re fine
with standing behind a woman!”
“As one of the Yorks, you lot really are just as the rumors say: a family filled with kept men!”
“I don’t like you, nor do I want to see you succeed with your pathetic tricks!”
“We’ll sell our items to whoever we want, regardless of the price!”
“I won’t allow a kept man like you to buy anything here!”
“Now, are you satisfied with my explanation?!”
