Chapter 536: Sincerity
"Okay." James Reed smiled at Ethan Seymour, then softly advised, "Dad, we’re doing this for the company."If James hadn’t mentioned it, it might have been better; bringing it up made Ethan’s expression even worse.
The opportunistic shareholders of the company all agreed to let that little brat go represent the company on the Peace Group project.
"All your hard work, and now he’s getting all the credit. It’s really... giving him too much!" Ethan grumbled, disgruntled.
"Dad, it’s also to reassure the other shareholders. It’s okay, as long as we can reach a deal with the Peace Group, everything will be fine." James’s calm demeanor had always been what Ethan admired; his son knew the bigger picture.
"Alright, you’ve been wronged, and I will make it up to you in the future," Ethan promised, then pressed the doorbell of Charles Seymour’s villa.
After the housekeeper opened the door, the two walked in.
Upon seeing Charles sitting in the living room, Ethan was visibly stunned, "What are you doing here?"
Charles looked at him as if he were an idiot, and calmly said, "This is my house."
This arrogant attitude made Ethan furious, his stomach churned; could this brat even speak like a normal person?
"It’s the middle of the morning, and you’re not at work, just lazing around at home. Look at yourself, what kind of example are you setting? Wasting away the prime of your life like this?" Ethan couldn’t help but scold.
Charles’s gaze fell on Ethan’s face without any emotion, bluntly giving him three words, "Because I want."
Ethan: "..."
Son of a... Does he really think I won’t dare to hit him?
"Dad." Seeing Ethan’s reaction, James knew it was bad, and he quickly stepped forward to block him, advising, "Dad, my brother is just taking a few days off after his engagement, he might be going back to work soon."
Sophie Wilson sat on the sofa, watching James’s performance with a smile, but there wasn’t the slightest warmth in her expression.
James really had a skill for this, subtly reminding Ethan of the humiliation from the engagement party, ensuring that Ethan hated Charles even more now, right?
No wonder Ethan was so displeased with her Mr. Seymour, James was certainly to blame for that.
"Resting? What’s there to rest for an engagement? Didn’t you go back to work the very next day?" Ethan’s face indeed turned a bit more unpleasant, feeling Charles was even more disappointing.
He really couldn’t understand how his parents favored this little brat.
His James was so much better, if his parents had always supported James, his achievements would surely be even greater now.
"See them out." Charles unceremoniously gave the order to leave.
If Ethan thought he could wreak havoc in his house, he was sadly mistaken.
Uncle Warren quickly walked over and said to Ethan and James, "Gentlemen, please."
A son kicking his father out?
Charles must be out of his mind!
"Charles Seymour!" Ethan’s fierce gaze pierced from Uncle Warren to Charles, "Do you think you can do whatever you want just because your grandparents are biased towards you?"
Charles looked at Ethan expressionlessly and gave a single-word answer, "Yes."
Decisive and infuriating, without killing them outright.
Sophie sat nearby, holding back her laughter, her Mr. Seymour was just so frank.
Such a straightforward person, never beating around the bush, except when it came to her, where he was a bit shy and hid his feelings; otherwise, his reactions to others were always this direct!
