Chapter 50 “Yeah, it's me. Johnny, I'm sorry but-" “Johnny? Who's Johnny? Mr. Wolfenden Sr., please stop callingthat. We're not that close at all!” Johnson interrupted Hugh forcefully.
Since Hugh had put the call on speaker, Liam and Sadie heard what Johnson said and were stunned.
Veins were bulging on Hugh's forehead. However, he took a deep breath and smiled. “I understand, | understand. Here's the thing, Mr. Zigler, | have a favor to ask...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I heard that Mr. Queen from Triumph Land is coming to Clouspring. | hope you can help us . set up an appointment with Mr. Queen. We would like to buy him dinner.” “Hmm?” Johnson scoffed. “Mr. Wolfenden Sr. Mr. Queen is busy, and he would only see the president from the Gillete Group. As for Wolfenden Corp., you guys don’t have what it takes to see him. | suggest you drop the thought.
“Besides, here's sadvice for you. You're no match for the Gillete Group. Surrender the shares early and let the Gillete Group complete the annexation.
“Otherwise... It won't end well for your family! This is my last warning for you!” Johnson scoffed at Hugh before ending the call.
Hugh's face was grim. Liam chimed in. “He’s an ingrate! A dishonorable dog!” Sadie hurriedly went forward and comforted Hugh. “Calm down, Grandpa. We don’t need to get angry at someone like that.” Hugh shook his head. “Did you guys hear that? Wilson is faster than us. He has asked him to invite Jason for a meal.
“Johnson...” Hugh did not want to say anything anymore. He had not called Johnson all these years because if Johnson still remembered that Hugh had saved his life before, he would have kept in touch with him.
Johnson did not really care about it, even if he was branded with the word “ungrateful.” After all, he wouldn't be called “ungrateful” if he was a grateful person.
Since he did not have the intention to return the favor, the word “ungrateful” was nothing to him.
“It’s okay, Dad. I'll look for someone else to help us!” Liam said as he tried his best to comfort Hugh.

After Johnson hung up the call, a cold smile appeared on his face. “The Wolfendens are a bunch of idiots. Don’t they realize that their end is near?”.
Kuhn chimed in sarcastically. “Really, they truly are a bunch of idiots. Do they still want to meet Mr. Queen? Does he not know that Wolfenden Corp. is about to end?” “The people behind the Gillete Group aren’t ordinary. Once they start their attack on Wolfenden Corp., you can offer them a hand,” Johnson said flatly.
“In the future, the Gillete Group will be the only one in Clouspring, so we have to do everything we can to support them.” Kuhn nodded and continued. “I heard that Mr. Queen has arrived in Clouspring. Should | make the call and help Mr. Lawson to set up an appointment with him?” “Yeah, maybe you should make the call right now. After all, we don’t know how long he’s going to stay in Clouspring.” Soon, Kuhn made the call to Jason.
After the call was connected, Kuhn said with a smile on his face, “Mr. Queen, I'm Kuhn from the Ziglers. I'm truly sorry for bothering you at this late hour.” “Mr. Zigler? It's fine,” Jason replied with a smile.
“Here's the thing. We heard you've arrived in Clouspring, so | wonder if you are free tomorrow night? Do you want to have dinner together?” “Tomorrow night?” Jason fell silent for a moment before replying, “I don’t think so. Hmm, wait for a moment. There's one thing | would like to ask you, Mr. Zigler.
“Are you familiar with the general manager of Wolfenden Corp.?” Kuhn was momentarily stunned before replying, “Nope. We aren’t familiar with Wolfenden Corp. Mr. Queen, Wolfenden Corp. can only be considered second in the construction industry of Clouspring. The best construction company in Clouspring is the Gilete Group!”
