Chapter 801 Don't Get Too Ahead of Yourself
Zeke's eyes swept across the room as he nodded. "You're right. There's nothing shameful
as long as it's good for the family. Also, what's wrong with two single people getting
married?’ He gave Julian a pointed glare, clearly expressing his displeasure with his
remarks. Julian wanted to retort, but Isabelle restrained him. Zeke had made his thoughts
clear. He didn't care about Luke's intentions as long as they benefitted the Fausts.
Frustrated, Julian turned to Alec, asking with his eyes, "They’re talking about your ex-wife.
Why are you so calm?’
Alec didn't react. He silently ate his food, considering himself uninvolved in the discussion.
Zeke didn't look at him but said to Luke, "If you're interested in her, go after her. However,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdon't use any underhanded methods because I won't clean up after you.’ He knew Luke's
character, so he had to remind him not to cause any trouble. Although the Walters were
not on the same level as the Fausts, if there was a falling out between the families, the
Fausts wouldn't benefit from it.
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I know what to do." Luke smiled, feeling confident now that Zeke
had given him the green light.
Zeke didn't dwell on the topic. Instead, he turned to Alec and said, "You've been doing well
lately. That company you're in charge of has grown rapidly, and the people under you are
all praising you.’
"You're joking. Those people are just trying to butter me up because I'm associated with
the Fausts," Alec replied with a small smile, not seriously taking Zeke's compliment.
"You've proven yourself. Why don't you start working at the headquarters tomorrow? We'll
put you in the business development department first. Is that alright?" Zeke asked.
Although Alec was stunned, he understood what was going on. "Of course, sure. I'll follow
your arrangements."
Zeke nodded and reminded Alec to report to the headquarters the next day. Without
another word, he got up and went upstairs to his study room.
After he left, Alec immediately felt several murderous glares landing on him.
"Alec, you have some skill," Xavier said. He didn't take Alec seriously at first because he
believed that Zeke wouldn't hand the Faust family over to an outsider. However, Alec
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmanaged to obtain a position at the headquarters, whereas Xavier had to work at a
smaller company for several years before being able to work there. If word about it got
out, everyone would think Zeke had decided to hand the Faust family over to Alec, which
would not be good news for Xavier.
Upon hearing Xavier's words, Alec simply smiled and said, "It's mainly because Mr. Faust
values me and gives me opportunities. Otherwise, how would I manage to do this?"
Alec never treated Xavier and Yakov with the same reverence he reserved for Zeke
because he was not afraid of them as he knew the power to make decisions within the
Fausts did not lie with them. He even hoped that they would take action against him soon
so that he could seize the opportunity to deal with them. Otherwise, who knows how long
it would take for him to take control of the Faust family.
"Don't get too ahead of yourself. After all, you're just an outsider. Do you think my father
will hand over the family to you?" Xavier sneered, believing that Zeke would not make
such a mistake.
Alec put down his utensils and chuckled. "Who knows?"
