Chapter 236
The old master squatted in the flowers to trim them. Adam's eyes flashed a bit when he saw his bent figure.
"Old Master, the Third Young Master is coming." The butler told the old master.
Hearing it, the old master trembled. He turned around and saw Adam was standing in the front.
"You b*stard, how dare you still come here? Aren’t you arrogant last night?" Although he was complaining, there was a joyful look in his eyes.
Adam hadn't been back for many years. The old master had asked Adam to come back many times, but Adam refused to do it every time.
Adam was not joyful at all. He said seriously, "Do you still remember what you said on the phone last time?"
"Wait for me in the study." The old master handed the scissors to the butler. Adam went straight to the study without saying anything.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Sean's mother leaned against the door. She must eavesdropped just now. "I never know that you have this kind of hobby?"
"Well... I wanted to ask you what would you like to drink, but I just saw you were talking with your father, so I didn't disturb you both."
"Really? Ha..." Adam sneered and left.
She actually heard their conversation. "What did the old man promise Adam? Was it about the shares?" She was confused.
Adam and the old master entered the study and locked the door. There was no way for Sean's mother to eavesdrop again.
The old master glanced at the band on Adam's head. "Was that woman worth you risking your life to save?"
Adam snorted and said, "You have never loved anyone in your life. Of course, you don't understand."
"Love? How long have you been together? How much love can you have for her? Don't talk about love to me. I don't believe it." The old master said and put his crutch on the ground hard.
"Whatever. Forget about it. Let's continue on the inheritance topic." Adam sat on the chair lazily.
"I once asked you to come to the company to work, but you looked down on it. Now you want the inheritance? I can consider your qualification, but I have one condition."
"What condition?"
"Marrying Caroline." The same condition again! Adam's face darkened when he heard his words.
"Why should I marry a person I don't love?" Adam felt that the old man was crazy.
The old man changed his tone and said, "Adam, I am doing this for your own good. The Luo family is in the limelight now. If you marry her, her family will be of great help to your business in the future.
"As for the girl you like, I heard that she has no status at home. Ben likes the twins.
You marry her is nothing more than marrying a burden. Since she can't help your career, you don't have to be serious about this relationship. Look, how smart Sean was.
The Nan family only had one daughter. In the future, everything of the Nan family would belong to Rachel, she would help Sean a lot.
As long as you promise me that you will marry Caroline, I will let you be the president of the company and transfer most of my shares to you." Old Master Sheng said.
It sounded that he had made a good plan for Adam, but he never considered that if this decision would really make Adam happy.
"Do you think that I came here today to negotiate with you?" Adam said coldly.
"I am doing this for your own good."
"For my own good? Come on, if you were really for my good, you wouldn't force me to marry a woman I don't love."
"Is love so important? Men should focus on their careers. With a strong career, what kind of women you can’t have?" The old master said. He spent most of his time in the United States these years, of course, he didn't know how strong a career Adam had built now.
"So, do you mean you won’t let me inherit?"
"You can inherit, but you have to marry Caroline." The old master was sticking to this point.
"Fine, if you don't give the inheritance to me, I will use my own way to get it. Don't regret it when I change the name from the Sheng Group to the Xiao Group. I gave you a chance today." Adam said coldly and was about to leave.
The old man was furious. "You are born to irritate me, aren't you?"
"In the past, I had been thinking many times that it would be better for me to die until I met Tracey. Now I’m glad that I'm still alive. Since you are so stubborn, do not blame my cruelty, what I am going to do next may make you uncomfortable. Take care of yourself."
After saying this, Adam turned around and left. Before he came here, he was still with hope. If the old master could understand him and agreed to his request, it would not be a problem for him to make peace with his father from now on.
But he just showed stubbornness as usual. He never considered other's feelings.
But for Adam, it was a good thing, at least, he may not feel so much guilty when someday he implemented his threat. Adam went downstairs directly and saw Sean's mother.
"Are you leaving so quickly?" She asked with a fake smile.
T d better leave soon, otherwise, you may be anxious." Adam sneered. He was clearer about her mind than anyone else.
"Haha, what are you joking! We haven't seen each other for many years. Of course, you should stay longer and tell me some of your interesting stories." "Interesting stories? Well, what kind of interesting story do you want to know? Leaving me alone in the snowfield to make me freeze to death when I was seven? Or pushing me down the stairs to kill me when I was five?"
Each of Adam's word was like a knife flying to Sean' s mom. His life was not much better than Tracey's.
Sean's mom thought that Adam had already forgotten all of this as he was too young then, to her surprise, he remembered so clearly!
"Adam, what are you talking about? I don't know what you meant."
Adam glanced at her coldly and left directly.
When he got in the car, he immediately made a phone call. "Assistant Jiang, do me a favor."
"Please tell me, president."
"Take all the orders away from Sheng Group. Tell our suppliers that if they continue to do business with the Sheng Group, it will be the same as going against me. I will destroy the Sheng family within three months!"
Adam's invisible assets were much more than what everyone knew. If he wanted to defeat the Sheng Group, he would not need to use too much strength.
The reason why he refused his father's request of working for family company was he totally distained this company.
His business had already reached a higher level than the Sheng Group. Then why he should care about the inheritance?
However, it was different for Sean. The Sheng Group was all he could have.
If he lost the Sheng Group, he would have nothing.
"Okay, president. But we need to pay a higher price to get those orders."
"I don't care about the cost. I'm just going to cut off all Sheng's business sources and ruin them."
"I know, president." Assistant Jiang hung up the phone quickly.
As soon as Adam hung up the phone, the old master's phone came in. "I will give you three days to think about it. As long as you agree to marry Caroline, the Sheng Group will be yours. Otherwise,
three days later, I will officially announce that Sean will be the heir and transfer all my shares to him. You can't get a penny."
"As you wish." Adam said and hung up immediately.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
