“Grandpa, are you still mad at me?”
Xander entered the house and happened to hear what his grandfather was saying. He pursed his lips in disdain but quickly adjusted his expression and walked into the living room.
Hearing Xander’s footsteps, Old Master Lancer finally found a channel to vent his fury. “What are you doing here? Where is President Lawrence?”
Xander said, “He left through the back door. Are you still expecting to see him? Haven’t you spoken out enough for him?”
“Bast*rd!”
Xander’s words were sarcastic, and Old Master Lancer almost passed out again. He gasped for breath for a few seconds before speaking again.
“I’m not speaking out for him. I’m doing this for you! If Byron got mad, the Lancer family could not hope to fight against him! If the Lancer Corporation perishes, it will not benefit you either!”
Xander pursed his lips and said nothing, but he was annoyed.
Old Master Lancer had lectured him like this countless times since he was young.
Nothing had changed!
He was a stubborn old man indeed.
“What did you do to Dr. Jacobs? She is President Lawrence’s girlfriend. We can’t offend her! She is also a good doctor! How could you do this to her?”
Old Master Lancer slammed the table and barked, “I don’t care how you do it. Go and cure Dr. Jacobs now, or I’ll strip you of your position as the CEO of the Lancer Corporation!”
If he let Xander, who had hurt Rosalie, continue taking charge of the company, Byron would destroy the Lancer Corporation if something serious happened to her!
Since Old Master Lancer could not convince Xander, he could only try to protect the Lancer Corporation by himself!
Xander sneered upon hearing his grandfather’s threat to chase him out of the Lancer Corporation.
“You are indeed muddle-headed to be still siding with them!”
Xander took two pills from the medical kit and fed his grandfather. Then, he said, “I’m not insane! If we can seize this opportunity, the Lancer family will have a bright future.”
Old Master Lancer could do nothing about it now. He said, “Call in all board members of the Lancer family and discuss this matter. It is not something you can decide by yourself.”
“There is no need for that!”
Xander looked at the villa door. “Come in!”
Old Master Lancer looked at the door in confusion.
Then, he saw two bodyguards in suits entering the house.
“Old Master Lancer is not feeling well. Send him back to the Lancer Ancestral Residence in the North City to recuperate for a few days!”
Xander issued the order monotonously.
