Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 2261
Harvey’s gaze was stern and severe.
He bumped into Teresa Thompson at the very place where Lilian was suspected to be held hostage.
Was this just a simple coincidence? Or was this planned all along?
Countless thoughts ran through Harvey’s mind, but he still put on a surprised act.
“Oh! It’s you!
“What a coincidence. Unfortunately, I have something to do though. Let’s talk another time.”
When Teresa saw that Harvey was about to slip away, she stubbornly held his hand.
“Wait! I still don’t know your name, my savior,”
Teresa said quietly.
“I’m Teresa.”
Teresa’s face was so close, it was almost glued to Harvey’s. On her lips was a brilliant smile, and her
eyes were sparkling.
The fragrance unique to a young lady filled Harvey’s nostrils, making him slightly uncomfortable.
Harvey let go of her subconsciously, taking an immediate step back.

“It’s inappropriate for us to touch like this, Ms. Thompson. Also, please just call me Harvey. If you keep
calling me your savior, people might think we’re filming a movie or something.”
Teresa laughed shyly at Harvey’s words.
“Alright. I’ll listen to you.”
“But this is such a wonderful coincidence! After
you saved me, I couldn’t even find you even after sending out so many people. I didn’t think I’d bump into
you here!”

“Do you live here?”
“I’m here in Las Vegas for some business. I\m staying in the presidential suite on top of Sky Casino-
Palace.”
“Why don’t you come upstairs and spend time with me? We can have a chat. I’ll treat you to a meal too!”
Teresa’s passion was obvious. She seemed very
delighted to have bumped into Harvey.
Harvey wanted to decline, but when he heard that Teresa was staying in the presidential suite, his eyes
lit up.
“Since you’re being so generous, let’s have a drink upstairs. After all, it’s a rare opportunity for us to
meet.”
“Do you want just one drink? Or do you want a few drinks instead?”
Teresa leaned close to Harvey’s ear and blew
softly into it.
“My dear savior… You’re not trying to take advantage of me when you get me drunk, are
you?”
Her coquettish tone made Harvey’s head ache.
He thought of how he needed to search the guest room area for Lilian’s whereabouts, so he simply
smiled at Teresa, not giving a straight answer.

“Why? Are you afraid?”
“I won’t follow you upstairs if you’re afraid.”
“I’ll see you next time, then.”
Seeing Harvey acting aso passive aggressive, Teresa held Harvey’s hand tightly and giggled coyly.
“You can’t run away this time! You must come
with me!”
Teresa led Harvey to the guest room area, holding his hand all the way. She then used her
room card to open a special elevator.

Right as the two walked out of the elevator, Teresa’s phone started to ring. She didn’t bother hiding
anything from Harvey and immediately picked up the call.
A man’s voice sounded from the other side of the phone, echoing throughout the empty hallway, S
“This is bad, CEO Thompson!” the man shouted
anxiously.
“Our people are being held hostage again! They said that they want you to show up and give a
satisfactory explanation in person!”
“If not, they’ll cut off our limbs and feed us to the fishes!”
“You have to get out of Las Vegas now, CEO Thompson!”
“I understand. So, these people refuse to play by the rules. Well, let’s just treat this loss as a lesson for
us.”
“And, they’re holding our people hostage again?”
Teresa, who had been acting like an innocent and naive little girl in front of Harvey, now displayed the
wilful elegance common to the rich and wealthy.
“We’re working with them as a show of respect.”
“Not only are they not paying for the supplies, but they’re also holding our people hostage?!”
“How ridiculous!”
“Hold them off! I’ll be there right now!”
“I’ll get the money back! I guarantee it!” With that, she hung up the call abruptly.
