Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 2262
After hanging up, Teresa looked at Harvey apologetically and said softly, “I’m afraid I can’t treat you to a
drink today, Harvey. Something happened, and I have to deal with it right now.”
From the phone call alone, Harvey could tell it was something urgent.
“What happened? Tell me about it. Maybe I can help,” Harvey asked without realizing it.
Teresa’s face changed slightly. She then brought Harvey into the presidential suite and poured him a
cupof water.
“It’s really nothing that serious,” Teresa said, sighing
“I established my own company that’s focused on import and export businesses.”
“This time around, we imported some high quality Red Tea to Las Vegas.”
“Because of historical reasons, people here adore Red Tea. That’s why the sales of Red Tea have
been quite good.”
“Then, we partnered up with a small business here that’s backed up by the Hamilton family.”
“There weren’t any problems during the early stages of the partnership. In fact, they already paid thirty
percent of the payment.”
“But during the final payment, they suddenly claimed that our Red Tea was of poor quality. Not only did
they refuse to complete their payment, they even demanded us to pay them ten times the amount of
the total payment as listed in the contract!”
“I came here today because my two staff, whom I sent for negotiations, were held hostage.”
“I sent out another three today. I wasn’t going to ask for the payment either, as I only wanted them to
release my staff. Sadly…”
Teresa seemed extremely exhausted at this
point.
Harvey nodded silently. He could roughly understand the situation.
Teresa got herself into a typical business fraud.
Such things happen quite often in the business world, especially for newbies who just got into importing
aħd’exporting.
Without a certain level of power and influence in someone else’s territory, losing money was the only
way to learn the lesson.

After pondering for a long while, Harvey suggested quietly, “How about this? I’ll go with
you.”
Harvey’s instincts told him that this might not be a coincidence.
What happened to Teresa might be deeply involved with Lilian’s kidnapping.
Thus, he decided to go take a look and confirm the situation with his own eyes.
Teresa hesitated at first, but she nodded and agreed in the end.
She wasn’t trying to avoid Harvey at all. After changing into her casual uniform, she took Harvey to the
underground garage.
The two headed out in a Porsche with a Las Vegas license plate, to a coastal area in Hong
Kong.
Half an hour later, the Porsche arrived at a warehouse.
The warehouse probably belonged to an old port.
It wasn’t very big, and the buildings there were all quite ancient. That said, the rent was pretty cheap,
and it was built in a good location.
At this moment, about fifty people were gathered outside a green warehouse.
They all wore dark sunglasses and vests which showed their strong muscles and powerful
frame.
Harvey’s eyes lit up in recognition as he stared at them from inside the car. It seemed he was right
about his guess.
These men’s auras and attire were pretty similar
to the ones who tried to kill him before.
Though after thinking about the situation, he concluded that such things were pretty common. Las
Vegas wasn’t that big in the first place. People who dared to do businesses such as this must be from
the underworld.
As it turned out, the men who tricked Teresa were the same men who had tried to kill him.
What a small world!
Harvey put on a face mask, hiding his true appearance, before following Teresa out of the Porsche.
