Jeffrey was taken aback when both his father and Keh pped him simultaneously for questioning Charlie’s identity.
He could somewhat ept Keh’s aggression since he knew he was the reason Keh was in this state—the very medicine he had given Keh had led to his current situation. Thus, it made sense for Keh to harbor resentment towards him.
What truly shocked Jeffrey, however, was his father’s unexpected response. Jordan had rarely raised a hand to him throughout his life, yet here he was, delivering two swift ps!
Covering his face, Jeffrey looked at Jordan and pleaded, “Dad! Why did you hit me again? Did I do something wrong?”
“Shut up, you idiot!” Jordan snapped, ring at him. Inside, he was frustrated. Why couldn’t his wayward son just understand the gravity of the situation?<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
With Anthony acting on Charlie’s orders, it was clear that Charlie was the only hope for the Weaver family. Even if Charlie was perceived as worthless, it was unwise to offend him!
After scolding Jeffrey, Jordan quickly turned to Charlie and said, “Mr. Wade, I apologize for my son’s behavior. Please don’t take it to heart…”
Keh, feeling anxious, kicked Jeffrey and coldly warned, “Jeffrey! Stop talking nonsense. If you offend Grandpa Wade and he refuses to help me, I swear I’ll make you pay!”
Jeffrey cried out in pain as he was sent rolling about three meters away from the force of the kick.
After delivering the kick, Kehughed derisively at Jeffrey before turning to Charlie, saying, “Grandpa Wade, please ignore this garbage. He’s not worth your time. Just focus on treating me!”
Jeffrey was utterly dumbfounded. Charlie, a mere son-inw of the Wilson family, was often dismissed as a loser who relied on Feng Shui tricks to deceive the wealthy. Yet here he was, facing punishment for merely stating the truth!
Charlie regarded them with a cold demeanor and dered, “If Liam hadn’t begged me, I wouldn’t even be here. So remember, it was Liam who resolved your family’s crisis today. He deserves all the credit.”
Jordan, hearing Charlie’s words, quickly praised Liam, “Liam, you did an excellent job! I’ll definitely remember this.”
Liam felt a rush of excitement, believing that if Charlie could cure Keh’s affliction, he would rise to be the chairman of Weaver Pharmaceuticals!
What Liam didn’t realize was that Jordan had ulterior motives.
To Jordan, Liam was merely a mistake from a brief fling with a vige girl from Mount Golmin, someone he had no intention of marrying.
Jordan’s im that whoever resolved the family crisis would be the chairman was merely a way to motivate Jeffrey toe up with a solution. Instead, it was Liam who brilliantly managed to invite Anthony and Charlie to help Keh.<fnc633> This content belongs to fin?novel</fnc633>
If Jordan fulfilled his promise, he would have to make Liam the chairman of Weaver Pharmaceuticals as soon as Charlie cured Keh. But how could he possibly do that?
Liam was just a worthless nobody who should never have existed!
Initially, Jordan had stumbled upon a beautiful girl in the vige at the foot of Mount Golmin. He had deceived her, intending to have a little fun without any thought of marriage.
Unexpectedly, she became pregnant!
Even more shocking was that she chose to give birth on her own, despite Jordan having refused her marriage proposal and leaving Mount Golmin without looking back.
Upon learning about Liam, Jordan’s wife nagged him incessantly, causing him considerable unrest. As a result, he had developed a deep-seated dislike for Liam even before meeting him.
Jordan was, at his core, a very selfish individual who had several illegitimate children he refused to acknowledge.
In his eyes, those children were the result of their mothers’ck of self-respect, and he felt no obligation to take responsibility for them.
