Chapter 2429
"Ouch!" Just as Nicole finished, Jared gently knocked her forehead.
Then, he reminded her, "If he truly is Mr. Ellison's grandson, how could Mr. Ellison have ended up the way he did?"
"What happened, exactly?" Nicole asked, getting more curious about the situation.
"To be exact, all of this happened because of the bad blood between Harvey's parents and Mr. Ellison. Mr. Ellison didn't like Harvey's mother, and that's why Harvey's parents had not returned to the Ellison family for so long. It was not until Harvey's family passed away that Mr. Ellison took Harvey home," Jared explained with a look of indifference.
"So Harvey had a bone to pick with Mr. Ellison?" Nicole queried, beginning to understand what was going on.
"Yeah." Jared nodded. "Mr. Ellison wanted to raise Harvey peacefully and allow him to inherit all of the assets in the Ellison family. No one expected him to come back just for revenge."
Without waiting for Mr. Ellison to relinquish his position in Ellison Group, Harvey had brazenly seized all of the equity in the Ellison Group and coerced the board of directors into relieving Mr. Ellison of his position as chairman. Although Mr. Ellison was heartbroken, he did not make a fuss about it and quietly went back to teaching at Royal Creek Institute, and had never stepped foot in the Ellison family ever since.
"Sheesh, I never knew that there was such drama between them," Nicole lamented.
As it turned out, this entire fiasco was the reason as to why Mr. Ellison had an air of sorrow when she met him yesterday. It was a rather sad story.
"But then, Mr. Ellison seems to be doing relatively fine. His intention was to hand over all of the family assets to Harvey anyways," Nicole stated.
The only thing that had upset him was that Harvey had achieved his goals through means different from what Mr. Ellison had planned.
"How should I put it? Although the results were the same, Mr. Ellison's heart must have been thoroughly shattered," Jared explained bitterly.
At this rate, it was hard to put a finger on who was the one in the wrong.
"Don't bother too much with other people's affairs. But do put your guard up when you see Harvey next time," Jared said with a frosty look.
He was not concerned about the affairs of others, but due to the fact that Harvey had a dark and twisted mind, Jared thought that it was something Nicole should take note of.
"Alright," Nicole agreed with a solemn look.
