Chapter 703

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Grandma York’s banquet had officially begun. The guests all sat on their seats in order.

Grandma York sat in a box on her own, looking noble yet mysterious.

The guests, on the other hand, have their own own seats in the venue.

The invitation that Xynthia Zimmer had received did not enable her to sit that far ahead, but a seat back in the middle row.

Harvey York did not mind that much. He went ahead and sat down beside Xynthia Zimmer.

As for Rosalie Naiswell, Bruce Cloude, and the rest were sitting in the middle seats that were near to the front rows.

The front most seats were reserved for the people with the highest statuses.

The people that attended the banquet that day had come from different types of businesses and backgrounds.

Government officials, mob circles, people in the military, and even the people in business circles were there. All of them had high statuses.

This was enough to prove how terrifying the Yorks’ connections and influence were.

    The front row seats were almost filled up when the big characters were all introduced one by one.But there was still a spot empty in the middle.Everyone knew that there was only one man capable of sitting there from previous events.And that was the legendary Prince York!However, today, it would be different.This day, the seat was for the head of the four Gods of War in South Light!The man that could work side by side with the first-in-command, Lieutenant Colonel Ethan Hunt’s seat!Even though Ethan Hunt was just a lieutenant colonel, his authority had far surpassed expectations.Yonathan York looked at the crowd’s faces full of anticipation, then smiled and exclaimed, “Everyone, please give your loudest applause to the head of the four Gods of War, the lieutenant colonel of the Sword Camp, Ethan Hunt!”Clap, clap, clap, clap!The crowd’s applause sounded like lightning striking the ground.‘Ethan Hunt is here!’‘His status in South Light is too high!’‘The Sword Camp

    Joel Flynn carried the gift box with both hands and walked to Ethan Hunt’s side with a look of awe on his face, accompanied by the cheers of the crowd.Yonathan York then introduced the gift.“This is a gift for Lieutenant Colonel Ethan. It’s a limited-edition Patek Philippe antique sports watch.”“This watch has a history that spans a hundred years, and this is one of a kind. It’s truly priceless!”“For the Yorks, we feel only something like this could fit Lieutenant Colonel Ethan’s status!”“Please don’t misunderstand us, Lieutenant Colonel Ethan!”“Everyone who attends the banquet tonight will receive an expensive gift!”“These are the rules in South Light, and also rules for the Yorks. Even more so, it’s the main goal for this birthday banquet!”“This has nothing to do with anything else.”“Rest assured, people won’t spread word about you keeping this gift. Just treat it as a souvenir.”Naturally, the Yorks were paying their fullest respects for Ethan Hunt.Whether there

    For Yonathan York, the fact that his own blood-related son was noticed by a big shot like Ethan Hunt was definitely something to be celebrated.There might even be a possibility for his own son to take over his position as the family head in the future.But it was not good news at all for Quinton York on the other hand.In his eyes, Ethan Hunt was someone honorable who’s invited through Yonathan’s connections.And now that Ethan specifically mentioned Wayne York, so what could this possibly mean?However, those were just thoughts that just briefly flashed across Yonathan and Quinton’s minds, they felt more excited than ever at the present moment.Now that Ethan said something like that, no matter who he was going to support amongst the Yorks, it’s already certain that he’s showing support to the York family.The spectators down the stage wouldn’t care about the internal conflict within the York family.What they saw was just the Yorks showing off right that moment.Showing off

    Not long after, with Yonathan and Quinton York at his side, Ethan Hunt reached the middle seat which was left vacant specifically for him.Yonathan spoke up with a smile, “Lieutenant Colonel Hunt! This seat is specifically reserved for you, no one apart from you in this whole room is worthy to sit here.”“Have a seat, Lieutenant Colonel Hunt!” The South Light’s second-in-command also made a gesture of welcoming him to sit down with all smiles on his face.For him, it was necessary to maintain a good relationship with Ethan Hunt.Hearing their words, however, Ethan remained silent and knitted his eyebrows together.He didn’t sit down right that instant nor moved an inch of muscle, he set his eyes on the seat before him with an unpredictable gaze.At that moment, everyone became a bit panicked.Especially the Yorks, who couldn’t really comprehend the situation before their eyes already.A big shot like him had to be treated with care, the same goes for the York family.Which was

    Ethan Hunt chuckled. “The only one who deserves to sit here in this room is definitely not me…”“Is it someone else?”“Who is that person? Please enlighten us, Lieutenant Colonel Hunt!” Yonathan York asked.“Hmm, if that person doesn’t stand up himself, I wouldn’t dare to speak his name at all.”Ethan had a mysterious look on his face.“Moreover, he’s already in the room and I can see him!”“What?! There’s someone whose status is even higher than Lieutenant Colonel Hunt in this room?”“And the key point is someone who holds a position as high as Lieutenant Colonel Hunt doesn’t even dare to inform us who he is?”At that moment, the whole scene turned chaotic, even Grandma York who was in the private room couldn’t help but peeked out of the gaps between the windows.She also wanted to know what kind of big shot had arrived at Buckwood.It wouldn’t be someone important from Wolsing, would it?“Lieutenant Colonel Hunt, pardon for my rudeness but may I know what kind of title doe

    Not long after, rows after rows of people stood up automatically with the hope that the one man mentioned by Ethan Hunt was someone they knew.Even Rosalie Naiswell and Bruce Cloude were amongst them, they too stuck their heads and looked around, wanting to see who’s that person!The whole room of people became restless, especially the last few rows of people when Ethan marched past the middle rows.Harvey York was the only one looking indifferent, as steady as a mountain, and as motionless as a rock.Seeing this, Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t help but jest, “Brother-in-law, don’t tell me that the person Lieutenant Colonel Hunt was talking about is you.”Harvey said with a carefree tone, “Mhm, you’ve guessed it right.”But Xynthia simply chuckled, thinking that her own brother-in-law was actually messing with her.In a short while, the group of people reached the last few rows.Those people sitting in the last rows all became excited as they all stood up.The Yorks all seemed restle

    Was Brother-in-law really the one?!At this moment, Xynthia could feel nothing but amazement and shock and also utter disbelief.All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes were looking over toward them in unison.Harvey York and Xynthia Zimmer became the spotlight of the whole room!Xynthia felt as though she couldn't breath.It was as if the time had stopped and the air turned frozen.All reasoning escaped her brain leaving nothing but an empty void.Xynthia thought she was already trembling all over, she wanted to ask Harvey again but could not even muster the energy to open her mouth.This man was simply too mysterious!Thunk, thunk, thunk… Ethan stepped out suddenly at this moment, the army boots creating a rhythmic marching sound against the thick carpeting.The sound hit everyone instantly, and it felt like a hammer hammering on their chest.This sound reeled everyone back to reality from their absent-mindedness.Looking at the only man and a young woman left in the back row,

    Shocking!Thrilling!Incredible!This was certainly the most memorable thing in the lives of those people present at the birthday ceremony!Yuna Shaw, Yvette Yanes, Carter Coen and others never expected to see Harvey York here.Moreover, he was the one true ruler in their midst!Ethan Hunt did not give others a chance to be impressed. Instead, he bowed and said, “Chief Instructor, please go to the seat at the forefront with your subordinates!“That seat is yours!“Only that seat is worthy for you!”Harvey slightly nodded, and said nonchalantly, “Alright.”At this moment, almost everyone came around eventually.Ethan slowly turned around, looking at the people from the Yorks, and said, “Yonathan York, Quinton York, don’t you want to know who this is?“I’ll enlighten you!“This person had temporarily left Buckwood three years ago.“At that time, he held the title, Prince York!“He finally returns three years later. If he’s willing to hold the title, he would still be Princ

    "Once everything was ready, Lord Howell then stood on the hill overlooking Lord Felipe's camp across the Red River. He believed his victory was at hand. "Suddenly, a cold breeze blew and the flag of his army hit his face. Only then did he suddenly realize that Lord Felipe's ships were coming from the North, while his own ships were stationed in the South. This was during winter, and the wind was blowing the Northwest. Using a fire attack would not only spare Lord Felipe's forces, but his own ships would also be burned."Lord Howell fell sick and he couldn't be cured. All the generals and soldiers were very nervous. At this time, Lord Kye's chief strategist Lord Albion came to visit him. He said to Lord Howell, 'I have a prescription to cure you of your disease. To defeat Lord Felipe, flame is the best weapon. Everything is ready now except for the Divine Wind.""The wind changed direction as soon as he said that, and Lord Felipe was defeated. And that wind had decided the national

    Thanks to everyone's cooperation, the ambulance quickly appeared and took Dan and everyone away. Whether they had truly fainted or pretended to faint, they all cooperated throughout the ordeal.At the very least, fainting was better than being humiliated.And that was how a political move ended quickly before it could even officially begin. Everyone watching this was somewhat speechless. Their attention finally shifted to Harvey for a while before disappearing.Harvey couldn't be bothered by them. He smirked and then turned the streaming app on his phone off.After this, Lapis had become much more careful. She quickly arranged for more personnel to defend all the residence's entrances and exits. At the same time, she also sent more personnel to keep an eye on Dan so that something like this wouldn't happen again.Harvey simply shrugged and said nothing. He believed something like this wouldn't occur again. Dan was no fool. He would know that the same trick wouldn't work twice.

    Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!Stickers of rockets filled the chat on the phone's screen. Harvey looked at the stickers and happily said, "Looks like you can attract quite the attention, Dan! You're almost as popular as a small YouTuber! The rocket sticker is one dollar, I think. There are so many here, meaning you've already earned around 60 dollars by kneeling a minute here! This is so worth it!""You…" The prideful Dan could feel himself choking. Suddenly, he coughed out a mouthful of blood.He was the scion of Grand City. The scion of Parkerville! Yet to Harvey, he had just become a YouTuber who could earn 60 dollars a minute. Most importantly, Harvey was streaming him kneeling in front of numerous netizens. He ground his teeth, infuriated.Not that far away, Clarion and Neve quickly left. The moment Harvey appeared, they had a very bad feeling. When they saw Harvey fix his phone on the selfie stick, they could feel a chill down their spine. Realizing they weren't part of the st

    Hearing Dan's justified tone, Lapis's expression became even colder as she glared at Dan. She bit her lip before saying, "Dan. Everything regarding Silvan has already been passed on to Heaven Hall. Whether any mistakes have been made, they will give us an accurate answer by tomorrow."As for you bringing so many people here, claiming you want to take responsibility for your mistakes… Fine. Go to the Earth Hall and give your testimony. You can explain everything clearly. Once that's done, you can come here for your punishment. "Otherwise, with all of you saying that you've committed crimes, how would I know if what you said really did happen?"It was obvious Lapis wasn't someone ordinary, either. She knew what Dan was planning, so she took advantage of the opportunity instead.Dan smiled faintly. "While I have indeed committed a crime, it's not the kind of major crime you're thinking of. My crime is that I didn't take good care of Grand City as the acting scion of Grand City. I

    Harvey could think just how much of a headache Wenzel was having right now. Wenzel had just returned, so the first thing he should do was to recover his influence in Grand City after his decade-long absence as soon as possible. Unfortunately, he hadn't even started to do anything yet when Dan had already arrived to humiliate him.All Harvey could say was that Wenzel was already disadvantaged in this political game.Harvey glanced at a café not far from him. He had his guesses, but he said nothing.Very quickly, Lapis walked to the gate of the Foster Residence with a slight frown, staring at Dan coldly. "Mr. Dan. Don't you know that the mayor has just returned and needs a few days' worth of good rest? What are you up to making such a commotion so early in the morning? What would you do if you affected his rest?"Lapis's expression became even colder as she spoke.Dan straightened his back. He narrowed his eyes at Lapis, then said with a gentle smile, "You must be Lapis. I heard

    Dan stood up and took out a history book, then flipped open a page. It was a story about a king walking barefoot to a cathedral where he was whipped as penance.King Henry the Second!-The next day, a row of luxury cars suddenly appeared. Among them were Ferrari, Bugatti, Maybach, and Rolls-Royce.All the luxury car brands that could be found in this world appeared, and it was very noisy.Harvey, who had just finished his morning training, was just walking past the entrance. He didn't leave in a rush. Instead, he moved a stool over and sat down curiously.Very quickly, the doors opened, and many figures got out of the cars. The men and women wore high-quality outfits, and all of them bore the imposition of someone of high status.When the guards of the Foster residence saw these people, they were instinctively rattled. It was obvious that these were heirs of the large families in Grand City. They were either scions or ladies of their families. In other words, none of them wer

    Coco was slightly stunned when she heard that. "You already knew Wenzel's coming back? Is that why you made all these preparations?"Dan shook his head. "How should I know when he's coming back? What I do know is that there's going to be consequences no matter if we're able to arrest Tina, hence why I made preparations. While it wastes some resources and can be quite a handful, we now know it's the right way."At the very least, we won't be trapped in a corner. Since this happened before Wenzel came back, no one can accuse us of falsifying this evidence. Sometimes, it can be quite lonely being the best," Dan added calmly.Seeing his composure, Coco held his arm and gushed, "You're the best, Dan! Without you, I might have already died plenty of times. "But even if we can stop this from worsening, what about Silvan?"He's not one of us, but he's also a member of the Seven Families. The Jacksons would want us to give them a proper reason. At the very least, we need to help him take

    "I really didn't expect Wenzel would come back…" Dan said, pouring himself a cup of tea and taking a sip.When Coco saw that Dan could still remain so calm, she wasn't sure what she should say. Her face, drained of color, spoke much of her state."Coco, now that things have reached this stage, there's no point in being anxious," Dan said as he put down the teacup and consoled her. "While Wenzel's return is a huge problem, it's not exactly all bad. Just wait and let things settle down first…"Coco finally recovered after hearing that. She looked at Dan and forced herself to calm down. "Dan, I know you've always been good at planning and winning without lifting a finger, and you don't really care about a lot of things. You probably already have a plan to deal with this."But it's really different this time. Don't forget why we told Silvan to go to the Foster residence in the first place. If Wenzel got his hands on the recordings, you'd be labeled a criminal for acting against your

    A lounge at the Foster residence.Wenzel walked in with his hands behind his back, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment. He knew very well just how hard Vaida had worked to stop everything from falling apart in the ten years he had been absent. That was why he wanted to console her first before saying anything else.However, he didn't expect to see that she had already prepared a pot of tea for him when he stepped into the lounge. Seeing Wenzel come in, Vaida stood up, pulled the chair opposite her, and greeted him with a gentle smile. "You're home, Dad."It was as if Wenzel hadn't been gone in the last decade. He felt like Vaida was treating him as if he had just gone to work in the morning and had come home after a long day.Wenzel was slightly taken aback, then gave Vaida a gentle smile. "Yes, I'm home."He originally wanted to say something along the lines of "Thank you", but seeing her expression, he knew those words were meaningless. There were many times when the p
