Chapter 972

Yvonne Xavier tilted her head up after a moment of dead silence to look at Jesse Xavier. “Cousin Jesse, I’m not marrying anyone.” Jesse chuckled, not saying another word. Ivan Xavier then exclaimed, “Yvonne, you don’t have the right to speak in front of our great grandmother!” “You’re but a collateral relative. You’re already lucky enough that the prince of the Leo family isn’t disgusted by you. What right do you have to give him the cold shoulder?” Rita Lawson scolded Yvonne with an expression as cold as ice. Yvonne coldly glared back at her aunt. “Aunty, I’ll decide what happens to my own body. None of your opinions matter.” Slap! Rita Lawson walked up toward her and gave her a slap across her face, then exclaimed furiously, “How presumptuous! I can’t believe you’re this disobedient! Are you not even going to listen to what our great grandmother has to say?” After Yvonne was slapped, Harvey York, that was standing at the entrance, could not bear to see the sight any longer. Harvey stormed into the dining place with a horrible expression, then said coldly, “Since she said that she doesn’t want to marry, she shouldn’t need to marry! She’s my subordinate, after all! “I cannot believe that somebody would actually threaten one of my men in South Light!” Yvonne trembled shyly and subconsciously looked at Harvey. “CEO York, you must leave. You shouldn’t be here. Even you can’t be provoking the Xaviers from Wolsing.” Naturally, she did not want to let Harvey know about this because the Xaviers from Wolsing would take their anger out on him. The Xaviers from Wolsing was one of the top ten families in Country H. Their wealth and power were immense. Harvey was the CEO of Sky Corporation and was named Prince York. But in Yvonne’s eyes, he still was not an opponent for the Xaviers from Wolsing. Harvey gave a smile toward Yvonne and said, “Is it really that important whether I can provoke them or not? You’re one of my subordinates. Nobody can force you to do what you don’t want to, no matter who they are. “If I can’t even protect the people around me, then I’m not even worthy of having the title of Prince.” “Who are you even? Which prince are you again? Aren’t you the prince for the rundown family, the Yorks?” asked Rita coldly, and she frowned while looking at Harvey. Harvey nodded. “Yeah, I am Prince York.” Slap! At this moment, a middle-aged woman stood up and furiously slapped Harvey across his face. Harvey was caught off guard, not being able to come back to his senses at that moment. After the middle-aged woman was done slapping Harvey York, she then glared at him coldly and exclaimed, “You’re the married man that still let my daughter be your secretary, right?!” “I’m warning you. You stay away from my daughter from now on. If not, I’ll slap you ten times every time I see you!” The crowd coldly glared at Harvey after hearing this. Everyone knew that Yvonne had been working for a married man as a secretary. This was utterly shameful for the Xaviers from Wolsing! And at this moment, the man dared to show up in front of them? He was looking for his own death! Jesse Xavier then chuckled and clapped his hands. The Black Tea Diner’s doors immediately shut tight along with his signal. Some of the bodyguards that were in the corner of the dining place all walked to the front at that moment, then looked at Harvey intently. Those men’s temples were raised slightly. There were obviously not regular bodyguards. As described in Country H’s legends, they might be professionals practicing the so-called ancient martial arts. Harvey slightly frowned after seeing the bodyguards. With his expertise, he did not have the need to be scared of those people. If he really faced off against them, he could come out unscathed. But if he did fight them, things might just get worse. That was why he did not do anything at that moment. He only glared at the crowd while being dead silent.
