Slumdog billionaire husband novel (Gerald Kenneth) novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270 The Gratitude From the Maddox Family

Hearing what Harland said, Leo and his family changed their expressions slightly. They looked at Gerald and did not ask much.

Harland looked at Gerald and said, “Gerald, don’t mind it. It just happens that we encounter such a thing.”

Gerald quickly replied, “It’s fine. I’ll leave you to your business. Actually, you don’t have

to take it to heart. Moreover, these things are what I should do. It’s a win-win

situation.”

Seeing that Gerald wanted to leave, some people frowned slightly, including Leo.

Harland frowned and said, “Alright, since you are determined to leave… Irvin!”

“Okay, Dad!” Irvin answered, then stood up, and said to Gerald, “Gerald, come with me.

I want to talk to you alone.”

Gerald nodded, got up, and followed Irvin out of the dining room.

Through the living room, Irvin led Gerald into a huge study. Irvin said, “Sit down!”

“What’s the matter?” Gerald asked.

Irvin nodded and said, “Do you know why Blood Lotus and Dark Phantom want to deal

with us and attack Ingrid?”

Gerald pondered for a moment and said, “First, they want to rope you in. Second, they want to get something from you. If I am not wrong, it should be bones or something like that.”

Irvin nodded and said, “Indeed. Previously, Saul secretly visited my father. However, he was chased away by my father during the discussion with my father.

“Most of the time, it is just a matter of choice. Whether it is Watchmen or other factions…” Irvin then continued calmly, “We do a lot of things out of the consideration of the inheritance and continuation of our family, including letting Ingrid marry Leo!”

After a pause, Irvin added, “I know. Although you didn’t say it just now, your eyes and demeanor seemed to be a little disdainful. You think that we are quite rich, but we still sacrifice the happiness of our children.

Gerald was noncommittal to Irvin’s statement.

For this kind of family, the inheritance of the family was of utmost importance at some point in time. No matter how powerful the family was, there was a possibility that it would decline one day.

For the sake of the family’s continuation, they would make the family bigger and

bigger.

Under the circumstances, love seemed less important.

Gerald thought for a moment and said, “But you have to consider Ingrid’s feelings. Can’t you see that she doesn’t like Leo and even has some aversion to him?

“Of course, this is only my opinion. I know what you are thinking about.” Gerald continued calmly, “Besides, no one can tell what will happen in the future. If your family and the Clay family unite by marriage, it seems that both families will get

how you

choose. stronger. But it is hard to say what will happen. It depends on you how Ingrid is my friend. I hope that she will live a better life. At least, I want her to be happy.

“This is your family business. It’s up to you how you will decide.”

“Okay!” Irvin nodded and then looked at Gerald. He opened a lockbox. Gerald glanced at it and found that besides two small iron boxes, there were many documents and the like

in the lockbox.

Gerald’s

gaze fell on one of the iron boxes, and his gaze turned slightly gloomy!

The iron box was a rectangular box with some carvings on it, looking simple and classic.
