Chapter 1298 I Won’t Do This Job 

“Hmph!” Rosaline huffed. “Adrien and Adam are good kids, unlike some people who have no sense of humanity!” 

Julianna retorted, “You!” 

“What about me?” Rosaline snapped back. 

“Both of you, quit it!” Oscar snapped. “Listen to me, not each other!” 

“Of course, Dad!” Julianna quickly tried to appease him, shooting a disdainful glance at Rosaline, who returned the gesture with an eye-roll, neither of them willing to back down.. 

Oscar spoke up. “As you all know, there’s a longstanding feud between the Ryker family and the Adelmar Clan. Coincidentally, Emmeline is from the Adelmar Clan!” 

Landen and Julianna exchanged a knowing look, keeping their thoughts to themselves, believing the matter had already been confirmed. 

“If it weren’t for what happened five years ago when someone drugged Abel, and he got into that embarrassing situation,” Oscar continued. “I would have suspected that Emmeline might be a spy planted by the Adelmar Clan!” 

You certainly have an active imagination! Abel thought, and Emmeline proposed, Should we consider reviving Alana Lane to testify on my behalf? 

“Fortunately, Abel and Emmeline’s affair came first, so I won’t pursue whether Emmeline is a spy,” Oscar continued to rant. “But while you can escape capital punishment, you can’t escape guilt. I initially intended to cast Emmeline out of the Ryker family, and that matter could have been settled. However, Abel refuses to give up on this woman. He’s willing to forsake the Ryker Group for her. It’s truly disappointing!” 

Julianna’s eyes suddenly lit up, almost exclaiming, “Wonderful!” 

Landen tugged on her clothing and whispered, “Steady yourself!” 

At that, Julianna quirked her lips in dissatisfaction and composed herself. 

“So, I’ve summoned Landen’s family for a meeting,” Oscar continued. “Since Abel is willing to relinquish Ryker Group, I won’t beg him to stay. The current issue is who will take over the Ryker Group!” 

“Of course, it should be Adam!” Julianna couldn’t hold back any longer. “Dad, you’ve always had high hopes for Adam, haven’t you?” 

But before Oscar could respond, Adam jumped in and refused, “I won’t do this job! I have no interest in being the thankless CEO, working my *ss off to get nothing in return!”. 

Slap! Julianna smacked Adam, scolding. “You worthless thing!” 

“I won’t do it. Not even if you beat me to death!” Adam continued. “I used to think being a CEO was prestigious, but it’s just serving the entire Ryker family. So be it that I won’t be appreciated for feeding this large family, but to even face criticism for any minor mistakes?! Not to mention, all sorts of complaints. and grumbles will surface at every end of the year when it’s time to split the dividends. 

“Emmeline and Abel-exhibit A. Grandad already has a world of issues just because she has connections to the Adelmar Clan! Not only that, he removes Abel from his position as the CEO for protecting his wife

and children! Sure, ignore all his contributions and sacrifices for the company! What’s the point of being a CEO when it’s so frustrating? 

“In any case, count me out! Whoever wants to do it, go ahead. I still want to live a few more years and be a hero for a little longer!” 

Adam’s lengthy speech nearly knocked Julianna unconscious, and her countenance turned grim. 

Julianna shivered and pointed at Adam as she snapped at Landen, “Look at the good son you’ve raised! A worthless fellow! I should have strangled him when he was young!”
