Thomas already got permission to stay, but he still deliberately asked Richard, “Richard, should I go out or stay?”This made Richard angry.David had already told him to stay, so what else could Richard say? Thomas was purposely embarrassing Richard.Richard gritted his teeth and said, “Harvard, you guys go out first. Thomas, you stay here.”Thomas shrugged and said to Donald, “You heard it too. It’s not that I don’t want to go out, but I really don’t have any other choice. Donald, you guys go outside and take a walk first. After I finish the conference, I’ll join you.”Donald’s eyes were red. He stamped his foot, turned his head, and left.When Donald came to the outside of the meeting room, he shouted at the bottom of the stairs. After that, he frantically hit the stair railing.“Thomas, you jerk! I’ll kill you one day!“I’m so angry! I’m so angry!”Harvard quickly came up to persuade him and said, “Donald, don’t get angry. Thomas can only be smug for a while. Believe me. H
Richard was surprised and happy. He was surprised that the other party could hand over three hundred million dollars in startup funds so easily, and he was happy that the money problem was finally settled.However, representatives of the other nine companies were not satisfied.If all the credit was taken by David, how should they explain to the chief officer in charge?If they could not explain themselves, they would lose their benefits.The general manager of Pocky Entertainment said, “No, I won’t sit with Mr. Williams providing the money alone. If a company has to provide it, it will be our company. I can provide the whole three hundred million dollars as well.”“Haha, why should Pocky Entertainment provide it? Do you think that Evergreen Group can’t afford it?”“You guys, stop fighting. In my opinion, the Sign Manufacturing Company should provide the three hundred million dollars. After all, the Hill family and us are both in this industry.”These bigwigs were quarreling on
Donald said cheerfully, “Okay, very good! Then we have a reason to expel Thomas from the Hill family. Without Emma defending him, I would like to see how Thomas will still be able to cause trouble?”The three of them walked into the conference room and coincidently saw Richard standing in a daze. They thought Richard had lost his mind to rage after being humiliated.Jade hurriedly stepped forward and patted Richard’s back. She said, “Grandpa, what’s the matter with you? Calm down. Forget about those people who don’t want to invest, we can always find someone else.”Donald said, “Today, the Hill family was embarrassed immensely. We invited a bunch of freaks over. We were humiliated by others without making a single cent. Haha, if this news spreads out, won’t we become a laughing stock?”At one side, Harvard pointed at Thomas and cussed, “This is all due to the bad idea from a trash like you! Look at how angry Grandpa has become?“If anything happens to Grandpa, I will be the first
Donald was completely speechless. Not only did the representatives of the top ten companies come in, but they had also invested a total of 3 billion dollars. This would very much likely help boost the social standing of the Hill family.It was almost impossible to seek revenge on Thomas now.His face was full of disappointment.The old man, Richard, was also quite helpless. Initially, he should have been very happy about the outcomes. However, he panicked when he thought of the bet with Thomas, and he was hesitating on how to apologize to Thomas.At that moment……Harvard coughed deliberately and said to Thomas, “Thomas, can you get lost from the Hill family now?”Everyone in the house looked at each other.Emma asked with a look of confusion, “The investment has already been secured. Why do you want Thomas to leave?”Harvard laughed, “It’s great that the investment was secured. But don’t forget that Thomas also made another bet to Grandpa at the time in addition to this. He kep
He smiled and said, “Actually, the culprit behind that incident was not my granddaughter Emma, but my good-for-nothing son-in-law, Thomas. Mr. Kennedy, if you are really unsatisfied, I can expel Thomas from the Hill family immediately. It’s up to you on how you’re going to deal with Thomas, okay?”Lambert ignored him and still asked, “I just asked if Emma is here?”Richard no longer knew how to open his mouth.At this time, among the crowd, Jade intentionally gave Emma a push. Emma stumbled forward two steps, and Lambert noticed her at once.Lambert immediately pushed Richard away and walked towards Emma.When she saw the other party charging at her menacingly, Emma was so frightened that she took two steps backward. She was a little nervous and turned to glance at Thomas beside her. She realized that Thomas was not intending to protect her at all by having his hands in his pockets, and his lips curled into a smile.Emma was so angry that she wanted to kick his ass.‘When his wi
Cold sweat kept rolling down Lambert’s face, and he could only pray that Emma did not ask for too much.Emma said, “I will punish you... and everyone in the Kennedy family to send breakfast to the cleaner uncles and aunties for free every morning.”‘Uh……’Lambert did not know whether to laugh or cry. ‘This was a punishment? This should be considered a charity event, right?’For the Kennedy family, this was not a problem at all. On the contrary, this might come useful when it came to restoring some reputation for the Kennedy family through such activities.He breathed a sigh of relief, and repeatedly bowed to Emma, “Ms. Hill, you really have a generous and forgiving heart. I wish you a prosperous and long life!”Upon hearing that, Emma felt goosebumps all over her body, “Okay, okay, I’ve already punished you. Folks, please get up and you may take your leave now.”“Alright!”Lambert stood up and beckoned to everyone, “Get up, all of you. Let’s prepare food together. Starting tomo
Thomas asked rhetorically, “Imagine if I didn’t complete the terms in the betting contract today, would you guys, including Grandpa, be lenient to me? Wouldl he just leave me alone? Would you put the betting contract aside and ignore it?”‘Of course not.‘If I can’t fulfill the terms, I will definitely be expelled immediately.’Everyone lowered their heads, and they knew very well what the result was.Thomas continued by saying, “If I lose, you will definitely fulfill the betting contract strictly. If it was the case, why do you want me to forget about the contract? Is this the house rule of your Hill family?!”Everyone was speechless.If Richard did not apologize today, it seemed that the matter would not be over.“But...” Thomas chuckled, “When I think about it, it’s too much to ask Grandpa to serve me a cup of tea. I can’t take that as a junior.”“As the saying goes, a father’s debts should be paid back by his son. Since Grandpa can’t do it, let the grandson and the grandson
On the way back, Emma drove in silence the entire way home. Thomas stared at her for a long time. He let out a drawn-out sigh and said, “Sorry.”Emma was taken aback for a moment. “Hm?”“Sorry. I promised you I would not pick a fight with the old man. I couldn't control myself today. It’s my fault.”Emma laughed bitterly. Was there any meaning in saying this now?In fact, all this was not even Thomas’s fault. Richard, Donald, and the rest were just big bullies. If Thomas did not retaliate, he would have been chased out of the Hill household a long time ago. Thomas was not the only one affected. Even Emma had been ostracized. And it was just because she was a woman. Just because she did not marry a powerful and affluent husband. Even though she was a member of the Hill family, the old man had not regarded her as a proper human being. Emma said, “I don't blame you. Anyone would be mad at what happened today. Take Lambert’s apology, for example. Back then, my eldest sister p
