Chapter 392
“Tiffany…? Tiffany?! Doctor? Where’s the doctor?!” Joey cried out desperately.
It was not long until the doctor came, and after examining Tiffany, reported, “She’s incredibly lucky to have been saved right on time, or else, her skin would’ve been burnt. She’s suffering a minor fracture to her spine it seems, but it could’ve been worse and fatal. She’s lucky to have
survived.”
Joey and Adam let out a sigh of relief and sat down.
At that moment, Robert rang them up and excitedly gushed, “Dad, I’m going to Kansas! Uji Quin has agreed to teach me, and he even said he’s going to train me to become the next king of gaming! I’ll leave after attending my sister’s wedding, and I’ll make you all proud when I come home!”
Adam grimaced. What was that? To Kansas, he said?
Adam was drowned in his work, sorting out things and businesses for the family, yet Robert was going to Kansas?
“Are you trying to piss me off? Do you know what’s happening right now? Your sister is keeping the company together, and yet an adult man like you is doing nothing but gaming! What is even in that thick skull of yours?!”
“What’s so bad about gaming? I can still have a bright future from it! Do you think businesses are the only source of income there is? As I said: I’ll bring pride to Burlington, and I’ll make a name for myself one day! One day! You’ll all be sorry!” With that, Robert hung up on him.
Beep, beep, beep! Adam’s face turned darker than it already was. “Useless! What a piece of trash!” he growled.” A sorry excuse of a son! What have I done wrong in my life to deserve such a useless son?!”
“Unbelievable! I can’t believe he’s getting worse day after day! Not only is he addicted to gaming, but he’s even going to Kansas? We shouldn’t have given birth to him! He’s nothing like Tiffany-not even a fraction!” Joey scowled as she simmered in anger, pausing for a moment as she gazed at the unconscious Tiffany on the bed. “Adam, we can’t count on Robert anymore, and Charmine is adopted. Let’s transfer our shares to Tiffany. She gave us her word that she’ll still help you take of the company even after marrying Julian, and we all know she’s capable of it. If we transfer the shares now, it’d count as her asset before marriage, so that the shares would belong to her instead of Julian’s.”
After a long moment of silence, and after glancing at the document burnt on the outside yet
retained intact internally, Adam nodded. “Alright.”
