Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 5520

Chapter 5520

Harvey squinted, staring at the man for a moment. “I don’t think I know you.”

“Of course you don’t. But I know you.” The man smiled.

“Let me introduce myself. I am Shepard, of Evermore’s twelfth branch.”

He then gave Harvey a name card.

“Here’s my card. Please take it.”

Harvey stared at the card, seeing all sorts of well-known titles in the medical world.

It was clear that this man was well-versed in the medical field. It was only normal that someone like him was involved with Evermore.

“Aleah sent you here?” Harvey asked. “If that’s the case, I can tell you that there won’t be a map, nor there will be a map in the future. Even if there is, I won’t give it to you anyway. Give up already.”

“Heh! Her Holiness threatened you for it?”

Shepard looked at Harvey politely.

“Looks like she’s just asking to die at this point!

“How dare she do something like this to a prominent figure like you in my territory?

“This is quite vexing indeed…”

Harvey frowned, “Your territory?”

Shepard sat casually on a chair, pouring himself a cup of tea and sipping it.

“You don’t really understand how Evermore’s structure works, do you?” he said, smiling.

“Other than the Lord, there are the Ten Revered and the Twelve Earthly Branches. I’m at the bottom of the list.”

Harvey got Castiel to bring some tea and pastries.

“Since you’re that accomplished, why aren’t you able to rise still?” Harvey asked.

Shepard smiled.

“Normally speaking, the promotion would come sooner or later.

“But a man named Hog had been in that position for many, many years now. That position has not changed for a long time. And since I’m the youngest of the twelve, I’m naturally at the bottom.”

Harvey sipped his tea. “And then, what?”

“Evermore is all around the world. The Lord has always been an unfathomable being. Nobody knows who or where he is right now.

“The Ten Revered and the Twelve Earthly Branches all have their own territory.

“The Coraal Revered, Aleah, operates in Wolsing and the northern part of the country.

“This part of the city belongs to me. Because of this, Aleah had already broken the rules.”

“Speak clearer,” Harvey said.

“You’re a straightforward man.”

Shepard smiled.

“I love working with people like you.

“I’ll be frank, then. I came here to talk to you about Ms. Zimmer’s situation.”

Clang!

Harvey threw his cup to the ground, revealing a cold glare.

“What did you say to me? Which Ms. Zimmer are you talking about?!”

Shepard ignored Harvey’s rage, still smiling.

“Obviously, I’m referring to the head of the Jean family’s ninth branch, who’s residing in Wolsing right now,” he said.

“Right! I almost forgot, she’s also your ex-wife…”
