Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad novel Chapter 46

Suddenly, the lights are dimmed and Claire Bennett is frightened. She quickly grabs Leo Howard’s arm next to her.

Leo Howard frowns in the darkness but does not push her away.

“What’s the matter? Is it a power off?” Claire Bennett asks in surprise, which makes Leo Howard feel helpless.

Leo Howard says coldly, “Although I am the host, today’s party is hosted by Bryce Family. The leader of Bryce Family is very old now. It is high time that he chose heirs. They haven’t said anything about it. I’m afraid he’ll announce his successor tonight.”

Leo Howard has just finished talking when a light comes on the platform. Claire Bennett sees an old man standing in the middle of the platform. Although he looks old, he is in good health.

He is standing on the platform and begins to speak to the microphone.

“First of all, thank you very much for coming to today’s banquet. On behalf of Bryce Group, I thank you for your support and love. Secondly, the main purpose of today’s banquet is to announce Bryce Group’s next successor, Bryce!”

Hardly has the old man finished his words when a young man comes up on the platform. Claire Bennett is shocked when she hears the name. When she sees his face, she freezes.

The young man on platform is Bryce who grows up with Claire Bennett!

Claire Bennett rubs her eyes again. She can’t believe Bryce is the heir of Bryce Group.

At this point, after the announcement of the successor, the whole scene is brightly lit. Leo Howard looks at her and finds Claire Bennett’s anomaly. He frowns and with some doubts he opens his mouth and asks, “What’s wrong with you? What’s going on?”

“Nothing...” Claire Bennett is shocked and shakes her head violently. Her heart beats fast and she stares at Bryce on the platform.

Bryce on the platform also happens to see Claire Bennett. They look at each other and Claire Bennett bows her head hurriedly, daring not look at him again.

Claire Bennett remembers her past with Bryce...

She remembers that when they were young, they always played hand in hand. Adults made fun of them when they saw it.

Once Claire Bennett’s aunt asked Bryce, “Bryce, you and Claire are always playing together. If you grew up and Claire married another man, how would you play together?”

At that time, Bryce said without hesitation, “Claire is mine. I won’t let her marry another man!”

Claire Bennett remembers Bryce’s promise to her. “Claire, I’m serious. When I grow up, I’ll marry you. I’ll be good to you all my life.”

Then Bryce disappeared and Claire Bennett got the news that he was forced to go abroad.

In fact, Claire Bennett was not so sad after Bryce left that year because she always thought they would meet again even if she was told that Bryce had no longer wanted her. It was not until Jade Patton asked her to marry Leo Howard that Claire Bennett finally gave up.

But she doesn’t expect him to come back. He appears again...

Bryce...

Claire Bennett is a little upset. Leo Howard watches her reactions coldly, thinking that she is not happy because she thinks the heir of Bryce Group is handsome.

Leo Howard says sarcastically, “What’s wrong? Did you just stare at Bryce to seduce him?”

Claire Bennett shakes her head violently, ignoring Leo Howard’s gloomy face. She looks pale. “I’m not feeling well. I’m going to the bathroom!” When she finishes, she hurries to the bathroom.

Leo Howard looks at Claire Bennett’s anxious figure, confused and slightly worried.

Just then, he finds that Bryce, the new heir on platform, has disappeared. Only the old chairman of the board of directors leads the elders of the family to toast all the people present.
