Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 346

Nell's words caused Old Master Garrett to laugh happily.

"The Leith family's daughter-in-law has a good tongue, but you don't know your Second Uncle Garrett. If you knew, you will know that he only knows how to safeguard the assets, and can’t be expected to do anything else.”

The old man's words were obviously self-effacing and it could not be taken seriously. With that, a group of people also laughed along.

"You must be kidding me. If Second Uncle Garrett only knows how to safeguard the assets, then who have we been talking to?”

"That's right, the Garrett Corp’s achievements in recent years are evident. With Second Uncle Garrett around, you don’t have to worry”

The group of people was talking among themselves and although Joseph was not there, in the eyes of these people, he was already the leader of the family.

At this time, Jim, who was standing behind Old Master Garrett, sulked even harder.

Not that no one had noticed his reaction, but it was just that in this circle, the weak would be defeated by the strong all the time.

Over the years, everyone knew which of the two brothers Od Master Garrett preferred.

Moreover, since Joseph had taken over the company, not only had he turned the former loss-making Garrett Corp into profit-making, but the annual profit has been increasing rapidly as well.

That had become a very competitive matter for the Garrett Corp as they would like to focus on business in the future.

On the other hand, Jim, who was with the army when he was young and later retired from it after being injured had been working for the government.

Jim had contacts but did not have the ability to take the family to the next level, so dabbling in business was the only way to do that. However, Jim who had been involved in politics for a long time was not familiar with doing business.

Therefore, it seemed as if he had a lot less experience than his younger brother Joseph.

Everyone could foresee it. They knew that the two brothers did not get along, and with the Old Master’s health deteriorating so rapidly, they did not know when he would die.

However, when that time came, Joseph would be the heir.

Of course, there was another reason that everyone knew but did not say out loud.

It was the granddaughter who was highly valued by the Old Master and brought home by Joseph.

It seemed like it did not matter if the granddaughter was genuine because, in the eyes of the Old Master, she was real.

Since Joseph was the one who brought her back, she would definitely be on his side. If unfortunately, the Old Man does die by that time, it would be impossible for her to not get a piece of the heirloom.

By that time, if Joseph and her joined forces, Jim, who was isolated and helpless, would most likely not be their opponent.

There had always been a lot of conflicts among the wealthy family. Everyone knew full well what kind of situation it would be in the future, and what the consequences would be for the defeated party.

Therefore, no one would really sympathize with the weak unless the opponent was someone closely related to him. Otherwise, everyone would stand on the side of victory.

The lounge fell into a brief moment of courtesy exchanges.

After a while, there was a knock on the door and Celine walked in.

"Grandpa, you were looking for me?"

She smiled and as she approached him, Old Master Garrett immediately showed a smile and waved at her.

"Yes, come, come and meet your uncles and aunties.”

Celine stepped forward respectfully and said hello to each of them.

Harrison looked at her with satisfaction and smiled. "Celine’s demeanor is not inferior to the wealthy ladies in the capital. Some things are really in-born.”

Old Master Garrett began to laugh out loud as those words had successfully pleased him.

At this moment, Nell suddenly felt that someone around her was pulling the corner of her skirt.
