Because of his young age and because he had always been favored and pampered at home, Zeno had always had a strong desire to prove himself.
However, he used to only show off and prove himself i n front of his parents, and he never had the opportunity to show off in front of his grandfather before. He finally decided to seize and take advantage of this opportunity today. He was thinking of discussing and debating his grandfather's idea and proposal with him so that he would have the opportunity to show off his extraordinary talents and wisdom. Zeno never expected that he would make Lord Schulz angry just because of what he had said. 5
He was about to open his mouth to explain himself, but before he could even do so, his father, Stefan, had already stood up. Stefan raised his hands and gave Zeno a few tight slaps across his face, left and right in turns. Stefan slapped his son until the corners of his mouth were filled with blood. Then, he roared in extreme anger, "What is the point of you studying so much when you are not any wiser, anyway? You actually dare to question your grandfather's decision here?!" 5
"I..." Zeno held his face in his hand, and he felt so aggrieved and seriously wronged that he genuinely wished that he could just die here.
He had never been beaten up like this before. He really could not understand why his father, who had always doted on him and spoiled him, would actually slap him so badly just because he had angered his grandfather by saying the wrong thing. 8
Besides that, his father had actually slapped him in front of the entire family.
Meanwhile, Stefan was especially furious and frustrated with this good-for-nothing son of his!
He understood how overbearing the old man could be. Even his elder brother, Sheldon, would not dare to stand up and go against the old man, let alone his young and incompetent son? 3
Even if he wanted to steal the limelight, this was not the way to do it! 2
It was also very likely that the old man would truly cast him aside, and he would fall out of favor with the old man in the future. After graduating from university, Zeno might not even be allowed to come back and work for the Schulz family!
The reason why Lord Schulz was so domineering, overbearing, and had such an autocratic behavior, was greatly related to his experiences when he was growing up. 3
Cadfan had had many brothers when he was young.
Back in the past, Cadfan's father not only had one legal wife, but he also had six other mistresses. He
had had seven wives in total, and all of them had given birth to more than thirty children for him. He had had twenty-three sons out of these thirty children! s
And Cadfan was just one of those twenty-three sons!
His life had been just like the ancient times where princes would be fighting for the throne. Cadfan had also been secretly fighting and competing with his twenty-two brothers ever since he was a child. After fighting for more than fifty years, he had finally inherited the position as the head of the Schulz family.
Besides that, we will have to force these two families t 0 give us as many resources as they can!" 5
At this time, the eldest son, Sheldon, blurted out," Father, I wonder who you are planning to send over to deal and work with the two Japanese families this time?"
Lord Schulz was silent for a moment before he said," Jaime, you are the eldest grandson of my eldest son. It is also time for you to take charge. This time, you will take the lead in this matter!” 3
Jaime was Lord Schulz's eldest grandson, and he was also Sheldon's eldest son. He was twenty-eight years old this year, and he was the most outstanding male heir of the Schulz family. 7
As soon as he heard that he had been selected to take the lead, Jaime stood up as he said firmly, "Grandpa, you can rest assured. I will definitely go all out to get this done for you!"
Lord Schulz nodded slightly before his eyes fell on the beautiful and glamorous girl sitting next to Jaime. 2
It was also at this moment that the old man's eyes were not so sharp and cold anymore. Instead, it was replaced with a somewhat pampering and doting look. He smiled as he said, "Sophie, you will also be graduating from Yale soon. It is time for you to go out and develop some skills and gain some experience as well. You can go with your brother this time. You should watch and learn more from him so that you can accumulate some experience too!" 5
The beautiful and glamorous girl stood up before she bowed slightly. She had a lukewarm look and expression in her eyes as she replied indifferently," Okay, grandpa. I understand."
