At the Hamerton Group’s top floor, the meeting felt exceptionally solemn and serious due to Liam’s presence.
Liam was seated at the table, dressed in a black silk suit. His silver hair told of the years he had lived. Even with age
catching up to him, his gaze was bright and lively while he exuded a sense of authority.
He looked at Zephyr and asked, “Has the handover procedure with the Baker Group been completed?”
“Yes,” Zephyr answered calmly. “Madam Baker is the largest shareholder of Imperial Media right now.”
“Mm.” Liam nodded with a complicated gaze flashing in his eyes. “I hope this company shows its value under
Madam Baker.”
Even when he had conflicts with the Bakers in the past, he was definitely able to still be tactful with how long he had
been in the business world.
Moreover, the interests of the Hamertons and the Baker Group were intertwined and complicated. Zephyr was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJanine’s son, and that meant that it would be impossible for the Hamertons to cut contact with the Bakers.
In that case, they might as well work together and seek a suitable opportunity in the future.
Liam frowned and looked at Zephyr with a deep gaze. Everything else was great—he was happy with this heir he
had trained, but Cordelia was a troublesome issue!
Liam did not pay much attention in the meeting. It was when it ended that he asked others to leave. He kept only
Matthew and Zephyr, as well as Clark and two other trusted ones.
Matthew glanced at Zephyr with a smirk. The latter knew clearly that he must have instigated something in front of
his grandfather again.
After all, Janine had caused a scene at the Bayers’ party the other day, and Nelly had failed to win any favor.
Instead, because of the “mistress” issue, she dug her own trap and became the joke of a few major families in
Centrolis. She must have whined and complained when she returned home.
This went well with what Matthew wished.
He already had a good relationship with the Tanners, and Liam was supportive of the marriage between Zephyr and
Nelly. As long as Matthew exaggerated and added fuel to the fire, Liam would absolutely be upset about Zephyr.
As expected, Liam toyed with a piece of jade and asked with a grim expression, “Zephyr, I heard that your mother’s
met that woman?”
“That woman?” Zephyr arched his brow. “Who are you referring to, grandpa? I don’t understand.”
Liam scowled. “Stop pretending!”
“Grandpa, you’re not even mentioning that person’s name. How would I know who it is?”
“You—”
Zephyr said seriously, “Grandpa, she’s not ‘that woman’. She has a name. I remember you teaching me when I was
young that we should respect others first before we gain respect from others. Isn’t that right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMatthew snickered on the side. He would love for Zephyr to argue with Liam over that woman. Once the
grandfather and grandson were in discord, he and Yale would reap the benefits of it!
He guessed that Liam would not go along with Zephyr’s request. Who was the old man? His whole life, there were
only people going along with his wishes—never him going along with the others.
Zephyr was still too young. Perhaps, he did not understand his grandfather at all!
Matthew did not even know whether to call him too smart or too dumb for fighting his grandfather over a term of
address. He scoffed and sat up straighter in anticipation of the show.
In spite of it, Liam uttered the name with a huff after being quiet for a moment. “Fine, I’ll call her Cordelia Jenner!”
Matthew was dumbfounded.
He had already thought about how he would instigate things after that, yet this was the show his old man gave
him!?
Was this man really senile that he disregarded his principles? He could not dote on Zephyr like that!
Matthew clenched his fists under the table and gnashed his teeth as he squinted at Zephyr.
