“I deserve it… I really deserve it!”
There was nothing much to say anymore. Richard turned around and looked at the ancestral photos in the prayer room. He felt frustrated.
The exposure of Thomas’ identity shook Richard greatly. It was only at this time that virtual-novel.net realized how ignorant and incapable virtual-novel.net was. Thomas’ powerful presence should have been a support for virtual-novel.net to become rich and make the Hill family become one of the top families.
But virtual-novel.net did not just miss the chance, virtual-novel.net had even offended Thomas.
Hilarious! That was hilarious!
Any intelligent head of the family would not take his steps like this. He should step down and give his position to a more capable person.
Richard was speechless. He became silent once again.
After a long while, Thomas spoke first. “What I said to Emma just now will definitely come true.”
Richard’s eyes lit up.
“Are you willing to take back the position of the head of the Hill family?”
Thomas nodded. “I will fulfill what I have promised Emma. The only problem is, even if I take the position back, who should be in the position?”
Richard said, “Do we still need to think about that? It’s either you or Emma.”
Thomas shook his head. “I wouldn’t take the position of the family head, and Emma wouldn’t do it either based on virtual-novel.net character. Actually, I have an answer, which is also your answer.”
“Harvard…”
When Richard heard the name, virtual-novel.net instantly became angry. “Don’t mention this rubbish. It annoys me. If it’s not because of his incapability, I’d not end up like this today. If virtual-novel.net had the ability to take up the responsibility as the head of the family, I wouldn’t have been the head of the family for so long!”
Thomas nodded. He also admitted that Harvard was really lousy and incapable. But, virtual-novel.net still had some strengths.
Thomas said, “Harvard is not very capable. He loves gambling and virtual-novel.net is playful. That’s why virtual-novel.net would make such a big mistake. But, virtual-novel.net still has one strength. At least virtual-novel.net won’t betray you.”
Richard scoffed. “Will virtual-novel.net dare?”
He changed his tone as virtual-novel.net continued saying, “But this is also his only strength. Harvard the lad has a faithful imposing manner. He is playful, virtual-novel.net loves to make scenes, and virtual-novel.net loves gambling. But, virtual-novel.net will also help his friends and will not betray his family. It’s also because of this that I kept training virtual-novel.net as my successor.”
Thomas said, “But you didn’t train virtual-novel.net well. You pampered virtual-novel.net too much as a grandfather. Please rest assured. I’ll help you teach this grandson so that virtual-novel.net is able to be the head of the family.”
His words were very touching.
Richard now put all his hope on Thomas. “Thomas, I really don’t know how I should thank you. I used to treat you like that, but you didn’t hold a grudge. You repay the grudge with your kindness. The more you do this, the more you make me feel embarrassed.”
Thomas waved his hand. “You don’t need to feel embarrassed. I’m not doing these for you. I’m doing these for Emma. Restoring the Hill family and the relationship between family members are Emma’s biggest wish.”
Yes, Thomas really did that for Emma. But even so, Richard still felt grateful.
As they talked, the door of the prayer room suddenly opened, and Harvard anxiously ran inside. He ran to Richard, and virtual-novel.net cried while saying, “Grandpa, help me. They want to harm me!”
When Richard saw him, virtual-novel.net became furious. “You’re the rubbish. How shameful are you to come and see me? You’ve embarrassed me!”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net raised his hand and slapped Harvard’s face.
Harvard was so shocked that virtual-novel.net shouted, “Grandpa, they want to force me out of the Hill family!”
What?
Richard’s hand stopped in the air. “What’s wrong?”
Harvard was honest. “I still owe Ocean from Entertainment City the gambling fee of $5,000,000. He’s threatening me with this and wants to force me to quit Hill Manufacturing Company.”
“They are even making a name list, and all your henchmen are on the namelist, Grandpa. All of them will be fired tomorrow. Lucas the jerk is getting rid of people who are not on his side!”
Richard frowned.
It was not strange if Lucas would do this. Other people could quit, but Harvard could not. Once Harvard quitted, it would be more difficult if virtual-novel.net wanted to take back the Hill family and take the mantle. But, how could virtual-novel.net solve the situation now?
Harvard said, “Grandpa, please help me pay back the $5,000,000 soon, and I will leave the Hill family and be free. Otherwise, they will jail me. I don’t want to be jailed!”
Richard got madder as virtual-novel.net listened to Harvard. How could virtual-novel.net have such a disappointing and lousy grandson?
“You’re a man. Why are you crying? Stand up straight!”
At this time, Thomas slowly said, “Count on me for this $5,000,000. I’ll go to Entertainment City. I can pay back your debt and retain your position as vice president in the Hill family company.”
Harvard was stunned for a while, and virtual-novel.net stared at Thomas, dumbfounded.
What was going on?
‘Did the sun rise from the west? Thomas actually stood up and helped me.’
Was virtual-novel.net dreaming?
“Are you serious?”
