Harvey York’s Rise to Power
Chapter 236

Chapter 236

Senior Zimmer smiled faintly, but he did not spare Zack the slightest glance. He continued, “Mandyis an exceptional person among the Zimmers. She’s holding two posts concurrently, as both theproject manager of the shopping centre and the finance manager. It’s rather difficult for her. As shehas heavy responsibilities, I decided someone should help her shoulder some of the burden.”

“Zack. After much thought, I feel you are the most suitable person for this position. From todayonwards, you are the Zimmers’ vice chairman. You must work hard and help Mandy to handle allkinds of issues, and contribute to our Zimmers. Do you understand that?”

All of the people present exchanged helpless glances with one another, stunned. It never occurredto them that Senior Zimmer would promote Zack at such a critical moment.

The problem was, lately Zack failed to perform well. To top it off, he repeatedly burdened theZimmers. Because of him, the Zimmers fell on the verge of bankruptcy several times. Witheverything that had happened, how could he be the vice chairman?

It seemed Senior Zimmer was quite persistent in giving Zack a chance for power.

He claimed that Zack was there to give Mandy a hand. In truth, he wanted Zack to suppress herpower and monitor her actions. There was the possibility of future complications with the companyfinances and the shopping centre project, after all.

Mandy gritted her teeth.

Senior Zimmer said everything perfectly well. Besides, he had fulfilled his promise. The rest of theZimmers couldn’t say anything as he didn’t go back on his word.

‘In truth, he doesn’t trust me. He’s afraid Zack might lose the opportunity to be future chairman if Igain the power in the company.

‘No matter how much I contributed to the Zimmers, no matter how much I did for them, SeniorZimmer always thinks that I’m less than Zack!’

One by one, the Zimmers overcame their shock and began to smile.

They understood the reason behind Senior Zimmer’s decision. He just made up an excuse in orderto achieve dishonest aims. He wanted to lessen Mandy’s influence and power within the Zimmers.

From the beginning till the end, Zack was the only heir of the Zimmers. The more power Mandypossessed, the more others would fear her.

Zack smiled as well. It never occurred to him that there was a silver lining to this whole fiasco.

He flashed a smile and said, “Chairman, thank you for your trust in me. Starting from today, I won’tdisappoint you. I will certainly fulfill my responsibilities with the best of my efforts!”

“Mandy, you need to cooperate with Zack closely in the future. All of us are family.” Senior Zimmersaid, smiling in delight. “If there’s any complications, just discuss with each other and resolve ittogether. Would that be a problem?”

“Alright, chairman!” Mandy was reluctant, but this was all she could say.

Soon, the meeting ended. Senior Zimmer took the lead and left first.

Zack folded arms across his chest and approached Mandy. He said arrogantly, “It seems like nomatter how much you struggle, you’ll never gain the upper hand. For grandpa, your position isincomparable to mine!”

“Don’t be so smug. From now, I’ll oversee every little detail in the company finance reports. I don’tcare how you embezzled the funds before. Starting today, don’t dream of taking a single cent

without my sign!” Mandy replied coldly. She couldn’t be bothered with Zack, and strode out of theconference room.

The Zimmers were furious. They did not rely only on their mere salaries from the company tosurvive. Without their tricks, how could they survive? It seemed Mandy was determined to ruin all ofthem.

“How could Mandy do as she pleases without taking our welfare into consideration? Even SeniorZimmer doesn’t care so much about these things. She thinks she has a say now that she’s inpower?”

“She thinks she has the right to do that because she’s now the finance manager? We have the rightto take what’s ours, and we won’t settle for anything less. Let’s see what she can do about that!”

Sean smiled and stood up. He folded his hands in a salute and said, “Everyone. From now on, Zackis the vice chairman of our company. Mandy is just a subordinate under him. How would she daremake things difficult for everyone?”

“I’ll make a stand here. As long as you support Zack like always, you'll definitely get the money youdeserve. You won’t gain anything less!”

Zack grinned and added, “You don’t need to worry. We’re both Zimmers. We won’t be so cordialwith each other. Since I’m in power, I won’t treat any of you unfairly. If she wants to oppress us justbecause of that small bit of power she has, I’ll make her pay!”

“Zack, we’ll count on you in the future!”

“Senior Zimmer values you highly. Who the hell is Mandy? She’s just a nobody.”

“That’s right! She’s just a useless woman. How could she compare to Zack?”

…

Mandy returned to her office, an ugly expression colouring her face. While Senior Zimmer did fulfilhis promise, she never imagined he would do such a thing.

How shameless!

He even claimed she had to discuss every single matter with Zack. He was being ungrateful.

Mandy sighed. “Grandpa, when exactly will you understand? If things go on like this, our family willfall!”

When she reached home in the afternoon, she was filled with resentment

Harvey, who was mopping the floor, became curious. “What happened?”
