Harvey York's Rise to Power

The Lamborghini sped onto the highway, blending in with the endless stream of vehicles.

Harvey was enjoying the scenery on the side. Shortly after, he noticed that all the skyscrapers and high-rise

buildings were slowly disappearing from view. Even the signature building of Wolsing also slowly receded from

his vision.

The buildings around him are slowly becoming more classical. It was not long until an estate cinto his view.

Brick roads separated the estates here, and statues on both sides guarded the entrances of many of the estates.

It was obvious that this place was where the nobilities of the past dynasties used to stay.

In ancient times, this place was where the nobilities lived their daily lives. All the buildings he saw right now were

beyond the reach of most commoners.

Of course, it was the sfor this era as well. Commoners did not even have the right to apply to become

household staff or even cleaners in this place.

The car quickly stopped outside a huge estate located at the outer rim of the other estates. Swiftly, a household

staff cover and opened the gate to the estate when he saw the car plate. He then switched with Journi to

park the car.

Meanwhile, Journi gave Harvey a look, and the two of them slowly walked into the estate.

The estate was surrounded by a huge garden dotted with gazebos, artificial streams, hills, and all sorts of flowers

and trees. It was akin to them entering a botanical garden. House staff wearing clean uniforms would walk past

them every once in a while. Each had their own tasks, but they all worked silently like robots.

Harvey was unsure what Journi was thinking as she sighed, looking at the house staff. Then, she led Harvey

through the passages and into a hall next to a pond garden.

The hall was lavishly built. A huge glass pane was set up on the side facing the pond garden instead of a wall.

That would ensure the pond garden's wetness and insects would not enter the hall while the residents and

guests enjoyed the view outside.

The wooden statues in the hall were all from a bygone era since many had already lost their colors. However, it

felt like someone had intentionally stopped them from being repaired. With all the antiques scattered around the

hall, those who chere would think everything inside was probably worth more than a typical museum in one

look.

Inside the hall, four women wearing traditional garbs were sitting around a table playing cards. They all looked

very relaxed, either holding a smoke pipe or a glass of red wine in their hands. They would occasionally play a

card on the table as they sat relaxing.

While they looked like they were busy playing cards, it also showed how empty their life was. noveldrama

The one hosting the gwas a woman with her hair tied up. She was beautiful and had an attractive figure.

The chips in front of her also proved she had quite the luck today. When she sawjourni, the beauty played a card

from her hand, assuring her victory. Only then did she straighten up her back and turn to look at Journi with an

empty smile.

The other middle-aged women simply took a few chips and tossed them at the spot in front of the victorious

beauty. Each of them also turned their attention tojourni.

Of course, all of them had completely ignored Harvey. It was as if he was just an insignificant insect. He was a

waste of their tand not even worth a single glance from them.
