Chapter 49 Raymond was momentarily stunned. After that, he mumbled, “What the hell was that for? Is it
because it‘s late now, so she‘s inviting me to her place? How can she be so shameless?”
After that, he turned around and looked at Kayson fervently.
“He‘s so strong... He didn‘t even give his all when he was fighting me just now! If he hadn‘t pulled his
punches, I wouldn‘t have even lasted for a round!”
Kayson was not aware of the thoughts in Lindsy and Raymond‘s minds.
In the meantime, he had already arrived at Mansion No.8.
The person who opened the door was Sadie‘s mother, Beatrice. “You‘re back, Kace! Are you hungry? I‘ll
make something for you.”
Beatrice hoped that Kayson could call her “mother,” but Kayson had never once called her that,

wedding yet. When they got married, she was confident that he would change his mind if she gave him a
gift.
Therefore, she was not worried at all. Even though Kayson did not call her “mother,” she still treated him
like her own son. “I‘m not hungry, Mrs. Wolfenden. Is Grandpa Hugh home yet?” “Yeah, but he‘s
discussing something with Sadie and his son upstairs.”
“I see. I‘ll wait for him downstairs then.”
Kayson sat on the couch, and Beatrice peeled apples and cantaloupe for him.
Meanwhile, in the study upstairs...
Hugh, Sadie, and Liam were discussing something important, “You want me to talk to Johnson?” Hugh
asked reluctantly. “That old fox is a hypocrite! “He should thank me for not looking him up for what
happened last time, and now you want me to beg him?”
When Hugh and the others attended Tyrone‘s birthday banquet last time, they thought it was Johnson
who had helped them and solved their problem of wanting the project from Dickinson International.
Later, Daniel said that neither Johnson nor his son had the power to do that. However, Johnson had not
explicitly denied it when they approached him, and it was only now that he realized that Johnson was just
trying to confuse himself with an ambiguous reply!
He did not want to interact with such a shameless and hypocritical person anymore.
“Dad, if we don‘t find a way to meet Mr. Queen, then Trevor will get Westcity Plot No. 8. At that time, it‘ll
be very difficult for us to answer to the shareholders who support us!” These shareholders cared about
nothing but profits. They would support the one who could
bring them the most profits. Sadie did not want to put her grandfather in a difficult position. She said,

easily.”
During the last meeting between the executives, everyone was shocked when Trevor claimed that he
had gotten Westcity Plot No. 8 from Jason. Liam darted a disapproving gaze at his daughter. They had
already decided to work together to persuade Hugh, but he did not understand why she suddenly
changed her mind. Hugh let out a sigh and waved his hand. “Forget about it. I‘ll try again.”
“Grandpa–” Hugh stopped her and pulled his phone out to make a call to Johnson. “Yeah? Who am I
speaking to?” Hugh wore a smile on his face and acted as if nothing had happened as he said, “Johnny,
it‘s
me.”
Johnson fell silent for a while before replying coldly, “Ah, Mr. Wolfenden Sr.!” Hugh had a bad feeling,
and his heart sank when he heard how Johnson called him. However, he still calmed himself down.
