Chapter 1836
"Grandpa, | know you are an expert at weighing pros and cons. | have laid out my cards. Please take your time to consider yourchoice." After that, Landon slowly rose from his seat and rubbed out the cigarette on the tabletop.
"Stop!" Cornelius called out to Landon. In a shaking voice, he obliged, "| agree... | agree to your conditions!"
"Dad, | sacrificed so much for the Harper Group. How could you do this to me to protect yourself?" Preston's eyes bulged fromsurprise.
"That's enough. Don't flatter yourself." Shameful and enraged, Cornelius growled, "You and | know who's the one who made realsacrifices for Harper Group. It was Bill—Landon's dad—your brother!
“Even without these scandalous photos, | have plans to kick you out anyway. Did you really think | was clueless about yourcrimes behind my back? | was merely turning a blind eye because | couldn't be bothered.
"I'll take the chance today to get rid of a thorn in my side. You do not have to report to work at Harper Group anymore. From nowon, you have nothing to do with the board of directors and the annual shareholders’ meeting.”
Cornelius was great at giving himself an out.
"You're turning your back on me?" Preston stomped in anger. Despite his age, he reverted to a child whenever he threw a fit infront of his father. He seemed truly agitated and worried this time.
Cornelius barked at him, "Get lost right now!"
Preston knew that no amount of argument would turn his situation around. He had no choice but to glare at Cornelius beforeleaving in defeat. He slammed the door behind him as he left.
Landon asked flatly, "When are we issuing the official notice of Preston's termination?"
"Within this week."
Landon cast a dangerous squint at Cornelius, who immediately changed his mind. "It'll be done tomorrow morning!"
"Great. | shall wait for the good news." Landon left the meeting room in great strides as Jordan followed closely behind him.
“Landon, | watched you grow up. Even your mom does not know you as well as | do in this family!’ Cornelius rasped from behind."You're not a good match with Lauren, be it in family status or your personality.novelbin
“Lauren is too timid. She cannot take charge of the family, not to mention reigning you in. Without a capable woman to supportyou and take care of the company, you will suffer in your career. Sooner or later, your useless feelings of love will wear out underthe test of reality."
Landon paused in his tracks but did not turn around. He stated, "I choose the woman | love. Save your worries. | am capableenough to shoulder everything. All Lauren needs is to stay by me."
Alyssa had been approving documents for the entire afternoon in her office at the KS Group headquarters.When she was done, she sighed and stretched.
At that moment, she received a call from Silas.
"Hey, Silas, | thought you forgot about me ever since you're with Rose. What makes you call me?" Rose lounged on the couch.“Lyse, | have a question." After a pause, Silas whispered, "Have Landon and Lauren broken up?"
The look in her eyes grew vacant. "Why the sudden question? And how did you learn about it?"
"Wait. Is it true?" Shocked, Silas mused, "Seems that the incident dealt a huge blow to them."
"Stop going around in circles, Silas. Get to the point."
