Chapter 1692
“Harvey York.”
Before Tamara Ebony and the others introduced Harvey, he calmly continued talking.
“I’m a security guard at Fragrant Hill clinging onto Xynthia Zimmer for food.”
Kait Walker froze, then showed a hint of interest in her eyes.
‘Someone actually dared to name their career in this day and age where everyone loves showing off. Truly interesting.’
Xynthia was speechless for a moment. She did not know what to say.
Her brother-in-law was always like this. But since she knew that Harvey must have other plans, she did not expose him then.
Tamara, on the other hand, had her face turn beet red. She felt extremely embarrassed. Tamara was the one that brought Harvey in after all. Harvey tarnished her reputation when he declared to Kait that he was just a lowly security guard.
Bryan Holt coldly exclaimed at that moment, “Lady Walker, I feel like we should just throw people who cling onto someone else for food like this out of here.
“This circle doesn’t welcome people like that.”
“Young Master Holt, I’m the one hosting a birthday banquet here. Everyone that comes here are my guests. That means that they’re my friends, and they’ll be allies in the future.”
Kait did not disdain Harvey because of revealing his occupation and stopped Bryan, then generously extended her right hand toward Harvey.
“My name is Kait Walker, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Xynthia aside, Kait was the only one that looked Harvey straight in the eye while talking.
Harvey then calmly replied, “It’s nice to meet you too.”
Harvey also reached out his hand to hold just the right amount of Kait’s hand after he replied. He had no intention to take advantage of Kait whatsoever.
An odd look flashed on Kait’s eyes. The so-called handshake was also just a test for Harvey.
But Harvey’s reaction far surpassed Kait’s expectations.
Her eyes lit up for a moment, naturally doubting Harvey’s identity. She then smiled and said, “Alright, since this is my birthday banquet, please don’t hold back on the food and drinks!
“There’s also quite a lot of fun activities here in the Paramount. Please join in on whatever activities that you fancy here, it’s on the house!
“All in all, please have fun with your stay here!
“If you don’t, I’ll only have my poor hospitality to blame!”
The crowd was cheering. Even though no one here was in need of money, they felt more excited playing with free stuff.
Harvey did not join in with those people though. He casually looked for a glass of apple juice and drank it while leaning in a corner.
Harvey’s gaze would sometimes shift toward Kait. He thought that she seemed quite intriguing.
Kait’s father, Justin Walker, was the only person that could contend against both Aiden Bauer and Rachel Hardy. And judging from Kait’s impression, Justin also might’ve had the upper hand.
Harvey thought about dealing with Mordu’s Longmen branch through Kait first.
But since Aiden and Rachel did not ask for support and were only relaying various intel, this proved that their alliance was able to hold off the opposing forces for the time being.
That was why Harvey was not in a hurry to take action just yet.
Harvey’s priority was to protect Xynthia that day. So, unless he had a clear opportunity, he would not deliberately cause more problems.
Looking at Xynthia, who was passing through groups of people talking to all those big characters in the entertainment industry, Harvey showed admiration in his eyes.
Xynthia was all grown up then, she was not the little girl that Harvey knew anymore. She had her own ambitions and career to pursue. Harvey felt gratified.
“Harvey, we were being too rash earlier. Sorry…”
Bryan, Steven, and Tamara, all came up to Harvey at that moment and spoke with an apologetic tone.
