Andrew and Darian discussed for a while, and then they decided to go to Samuel. They thought it was a matter of importance, so they had to get Samuel involved.
After discussion, the two hurried to Samuelâs residence.
Seeing his two sons coming in with worried expressions, Samuel, who was lying in a rocking chair and listening to the radio, immediately realized that something must have been wrong.
âAndrew, Darian, is there anything wrong? Just say it.â Samuel said as if he had seen through his sons.
Andrew smiled, âWell, itâs exactly that no one knows a man better than his own father. Father, you are right. We do have problems we canât solve, and we need you to help us solve it personally.â
âYou ask me to solve it personally? I can only deal with the family business. but canât manage the company business.â Samuel closed his eyes.
âItâs kind of family things. When Marcus quit the company previously, Darian and I took back their shares with one million dollars, then Victoria left the company. Father, I guess you know it.â
âWell, I do. There is nothing wrong with what you have done. You are kind enough to give Marcus a million dollars.â
Samuel had some grievance of Marcus, so he was content to see them withdraw from the family business.
Andrew looked at Darian awkwardly, pouted his lips at Darian, hinting him to continue.
âDad, Itâs about the business Victoria used to be in charge of. After her departure, the buyers canceled the orders one after another, and the situation in the company now is getting worse day by day. But Victoria has become the president of Topyuan Group!â
Samuelâs closed eyes opened suddenly, and there was a surprise in his eyes.
âWhat did you say? Has Victoria become the president of Topyuan Group? Are you serious? She is not mature and old enough to be a president.â
âItâs true. It was broadcasting on TV just now and many leaders in H City have participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Victoria must have had a shady deal with the boss behind the scene, so she can become the president of Topyuan Group.â
âAhem.â Hearing Darian straying from the point, Andrew coughed a little, âThatâs not important. What matters is to ask Victoria to give us some orders on behalf of Topyuan Group so that our company can pull through this period.â
Samuel contemplated for a while, then he figured out the purpose of his two sons.
âYou want me to persuade Victoria?â
âYes. Weâre afraid she wonât listen to us, so we have to let you get involved. She will definitely do as you say.â
Darian echoed, âItâs said that keep the goodies within the family. Victoria is cultivated by our family, and she should be grateful to us.â
Listening to this, Samuel sighed and nodded slowly at his two sons who were kind of pitiful, feeling that what they said was right.
After all, Victoria was a member of Griffith family and they were related in blood. It didnât violate the law and morality to ask her to offer some help to their business.
âAsk Marcus to come here first.â Samuel said.
Andrew and Darian were delighted, and then called Marcus immediately.
At this time, Marcus was at the ribbon-cutting ceremony in Topyuan Group. After confirming the time of the ceremony, Maximilian sent someone to pick up Marcus and Laura. Maximilian wanted Victoriaâs parents to witness her highlight moments.
Marcus and Laura were sitting on the sofa excitedly. Many businessmen who couldnât find a chance to converse with Victoria gathered around the couple and flattered them after they knew the couple were Victoriaâs parents.
The couple was surprised at the crowdâs flattery, and they just giggled. Then Marcusâs phone rang.
When he took out his phone, the crowd around became quiet immediately.
Marcus enjoyed this feeling very much. In a trance, he felt as if he was an emperor. Marcus crossed his legs and shook his leg triumphantly. Then he raised his head and said, âHello, whoâs that?â
âShit! Iâm Andrew, you elder brother!â Andrew said angrily.
Marcus put down the pone and saw the caller ID was indeed Andrew.
The unexpected call from his eldest brother on such an important occasion made Marcus feel that he had been splashed with cold water.
âWell, Iâm busy outside, and I didnât see the caller ID when I answered the phone. Andrew, whatâs up?â
âItâs not me who is looking for you, but our father. Come here quickly.â Andrew said coldly.
âOur father? Whatâs wrong with him? Is his health...â
âShut up! Our father is in good health. Just come here!â
Marcus was relieved at this time. He thought Samuel was in a bad health. Marcus felt it was strange that Samuel asked him to go back this time.
âAll right. Iâll be back now.â Marcus hung up, and then walked quickly to Maximilian.
âMaximilian, Andrew just called me and asked me to go back to your grandpa.â Marcus said straight to the point.
Maximilian raised his eyebrows. He kind of guessed the situation, âThen Iâll take you back and visit grandpa.â
âWell...â After some hesitation, Marcus felt that it was good to be accompanied by Maximilian, as he could solve some problems for him.
âWell, letâs go now.â
âOkay.â
Maximilian and Marcus left together and drove to Samuelâs residence.
They arrived soon. When saw Samuelâs cold eyes of after entering the house, Marcus felt his heart jolted.
Forcing a smile, Marcus walked quickly to Samuel, carrying some gifts he had just bought.
âFather, Iâm here.â
âHump! You should know when to come back and see me.â Samuel said with a grim face.
âI...â
âShut up! I heard that your daughter has become the president of Topyuan Group. It seems that our Griffith family is too insignificant for your daughter to care about.â
Marcus broke out in sweat immediately.
