Harvey York’s Rise To Power Chapter 3061
Chapter 3061
Harvey froze after he heard those words.
The reason he had been staying in Hong Kong and Las Vegas for so long was so he could keep the citizens of Country H safe.
That way, the dastardly ambitions of the Island Nations and The Empire would never come to fruition.
This was justice. That was why Harvey had no guilt in his conscience and toward the citizens as a whole. But when Queenie told him Country H would be safer if he sat on the throne…
Harvey was at a loss.
Fate is a fickle mistress, after all!
Queenie studied Harvey‘s dumbfounded expression before narrowing her eyes at the higher–ups of the Yorks of Hong Kong, who were also at a loss.
“The Yorks of Hong Kong had been waiting for a suitable successor for so many years,” she began with a small smile.
“And you are the most qualified person to serve that role, Harvey.”
Queenie then leaned towards Harvey and began to
whisper in his ear.
“If you think I‘m not good enough for you…” “We can just turn the marriage into a show.” “As long as we do a good job acting out the show, the people of Country H will be safe.” “Fair trade, don‘t you think?”
Harvey was rendered completely speechless. As he stood there in a loss, Lexie returned to her senses.
She walked up to Queenie, furious, and pointed a rude finger at the latter.
“Queenie, you f*cking b*tch! Shut your mouth right this instant!”
“Is your brain working?!” “You‘re just an adopted daughter of Lord York! Even if Harvey marries you, do you think he can become the new young lord so easily?!”
“Are you insane?!”
“Let me tell you something! An adopted daughter like you can‘t just spout bullsh*t to the crowd on such an important occasion!” Having reached this point, Lexie was filled with unbridled rage.
She had been planning to get Vince under Marcel for so
many years, just for Vince to officially take the position of the young lord.
How could she accept such an unexpected turn of events?
At the same time, the higher–ups came to their senses as well. Several of them clapped to signal the guards.
“Hurry! Get Queenie and Harvey out of here!” “Don‘t let them shame us! They‘re ruining Grandma York‘s birthday banquet!”
At their orders, the family guards stepped forward and swarmed the place in the next moment.
Queenie was already prepared for this situation. She clapped as well, and the elites of the Yorks of Hong Kong came forward instantly.
A fight could break out at any moment. The tension in the air was so thick, it could be cut with a knife.
As the head of the head house was well as Vince‘s father
– Cory York couldn‘t just sit and watch quietly any longer.
He slammed the teacup in his hand and stood up, furiously. He glared at Queenie with narrowed eyes.
“What are you trying to do, Queenie?”
“You may be an adopted daughter, but you‘re still a part of the family‘s third generation!”
“How dare you try to cause trouble at Grandma York‘s birthday banquet!”
“Who gave you permission to act this way?”
“How dare you!”
Cory‘s words had a different meaning; he was hinting to everyone that someone was guiding Queenie behind the scenes.
Everyone‘s gaze fell on Marcel, who remained perfectly calm from the very beginning.
Many assumed that he was the one who instructed Queenie to say such scandalized things.
