Chapter 602 - 601: The Father-in-Law Wants to Meet Ethan Grant
The Sterling brothers, Eldest Master and Second Master Sterling, suffered their first defeat. After falling asleep, James Sterling was called to bed by First Mrs. Sterling, leaving the two brothers sprawled across the living room sofa. The next morning, Ethan Grant emerged from Serena Sullivan’s room in high spirits, causing the brothers to grit their teeth in anger.
Could it really be that Ethan Grant had spirited away their sister!
Yes, although she was already in his grip! However, not being resigned to it is still not being resigned!
It was the eldest master who came up with a plan and called the old man.
Without much ado, he simply informed the old man that Ethan Grant was brazenly sleeping in Nancy’s bed.
He also took the opportunity to make a call to Simon Sterling.
After Mr. Sterling hung up the phone, he rose and stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking.
The Sterling Tower loomed high among the many low-rise buildings and skyscrapers, but looking out through the glass, he did not feel almighty; instead, an intense loneliness crept in!
After finishing a cigarette, Mr. Sterling took another from the pack on the table. As the cigarette ignited, who could have imagined that the man who once insisted on teaching at a university, hoping to live peacefully with the one he loved, had become the Mr. Sterling everyone aspired to but couldn’t reach!
With the flame out, lighting up again, smoke filled the surroundings, and Mr. Sterling pondered James Sterling’s words over the phone.
Ethan Grant moved into Deepwood and was sleeping with Serena Sullivan!
What kind of feeling is this!
Agitation! Unrest!
He was not satisfied with Ethan Grant as a son-in-law, never satisfied.
Four years ago, when Ethan Grant came to Solaria with Mr. Grant, he and Mrs. Sterling personally hosted them—not just because of The Grant Family’s status in the city and their intent to collaborate—but more importantly, he wanted to see what kind of person Ethan Grant was!
Upon meeting him, in his view, he was nothing special.
A bit handsome, from a good family, carrying a kind of rebellious air, in every way, he felt unfit for his daughter!
After dinner, Mrs. Sterling sang praises of Ethan Grant in his ear, but he remained silent, finding Ethan Grant increasingly disagreeable.
However, having abandoned Serena in Solaria, he had no right to interfere with her or arrange her marriage.
When something happened to Serena, he abandoned the anniversary event with Mrs. Sterling and raced to Solaria that night.
When Serena returned to Solaria, Ethan Grant set a trap to marry her, and he was constantly worried and apprehensive.
Even if he had no right to control her, he couldn’t watch her get hurt by Ethan Grant again.
A knock on the door pulled Mr. Sterling back from his thoughts. Wyatt Sterling came in with documents for him to sign, noticing Mr. Sterling standing by the window smoking again.
To Wyatt Sterling, his father seemed perfect!
In the business arena, he could outmaneuver opponents with ease; he was patient, never losing his temper with anyone; he was disciplined, never indulging in extravagance with alcohol, money, or women.
However, recent events made Wyatt feel that everything was only superficial.
For instance, the gentle and elegant Mrs. Sterling, plotting against Serena but still claiming it was for the family’s good and Felicity’s sake.
And Mr. Sterling, smoking more frequently, and his dealings with Claire Sullivan left Wyatt shocked and baffled.
"Dad!"
Wyatt called out, and Mr. Sterling spoke first, saying, "Arrange a private room."
"Didn’t you assign a vice president for tonight’s dinner?"
Mr. Sterling disliked social gatherings, so Wyatt assumed he’d changed his mind and was attending today’s meeting with other companies.
"No."
Mr. Sterling replied, almost finished with his cigarette, looking at Wyatt.
"Arrange a meeting with Ethan Grant."
"What for?"
Wyatt frowned, speaking displeased.
"He moved into Deepwood, living with Serena Sullivan." Having said this, Mr. Sterling watched Wyatt’s temper flare instantly, and he promptly responded, "Dad, I’ll arrange it."
