The First Son's Revenge 9
All the way home from the restaurant, Reid continued to smile. This was the first time he tasted the sweetness of revenge. The dessert he ordered earlier tasted many times more delicious."You don't need to report this matter to Grandpa," Reid said to Charles when they arrived at Arison's residence."Yes, Young Master," answered Charles obediently, even though Reid thought that because Charles had expressed objections to Reid's attitude earlier, Charles would report this to his grandfather and make Reid's movements restricted. But Reid's guess was wrong. Reid became increasingly pleased with his personal assistant's attitude."Sorry if I bothered you earlier," said Reid. So far, Reid has been used to being obedient to all orders from Liam and Abigail. In fact, Reid has no other choice but to obey because he doesn't have any strength.But now that Reid had finally moved into the Arison residence and knew what kind of power he truly had, Reid couldn't help but remain silent. He wanted t

10Reid had never met Brian or the other members of Raynold Clark's family, but Reid had seen photos of each of them. That's why Reid immediately recognized who the figure who had just arrived was.Charles seemed panicked by Brian's arrival. He didn't expect that they would immediately meet Raynold's son before Reid even had a chance to talk to Amanda Waverly.But when Charles saw that his young master remained calm and inconspicuous in his disguise as a bodyguard, Charles' panic faded. He also tried to act calmer.“Wow, look, who's here? Dear Mr. Jacob's accomplice. Why did you come here alone, Charles? Where is your master? Shouldn't dogs walk with their masters? Or perhaps Master Jacob has untied you and let you roam as you please in search of a new master? You can join me and my father if you want," said Brian arrogantly."Sorry, Sir, but I'm not interested," Charles replied.Brian snorted, then he turned to Amanda Waverly. “What about you, Amanda? Will you also remain loyal to Mr

"Are you sure you will discuss this with Mr Jacob?" Charles asked on the way home.Reid, who had been silent all this while looking out the car window, sighed.Compared to what Charles asked, Reid's mind was more focused on other things."Do you know the reason why Amanda is still able to remain in office? Haven't most of Grandfather's trusted people been removed by Raynold?" Reid asked, finally voicing his curiosity.“Because Amanda is very good at her field, young master. Even though she is still quite young, she always has mature calculations and also very extensive connections," answered Charles.“Extensive connections?” Reid repeated.Charles nodded. “The Waverly family is quite an influential family and has extensive connections going back generations. That's why Raynold couldn't—actually didn't want to—just fire Amanda. In fact, as the young master saw earlier, Brian is very enthusiastic about recruiting Amanda to his side," Charles explained at length.No wonder, Reid thought.

Or was what happened that night just a coincidence? It just so happens that members of the Arison family came to this city and chose the same restaurant as Liam?Considering how rich this family is, Liam wouldn't be surprised if the man ordered the entire restaurant for himself.Yes, that's definitely it. Everything is just a coincidence. It was impossible for members of the Arison family to do it on purpose because Liam had never had any dealings with members of the Arison family before, let alone offending them. How could Liam be brave?

Three days laterThat morning in a very spacious and luxurious meeting room. There was a long table in the middle of the room with a row of chairs around it. The ceiling was gray with a long rectangular lamp and a projector screen at the end of the table. The walls of the room are made of glass so that it shows the dense and never-ending urban buildings and streets outside.Several people had arrived first and filled the chairs at the meeting table.Today there was an important meeting at the Arison company, and those present this time were a number of company officials and also the highest shareholders.Because the meeting hadn't started yet, they took the time to chat among themselves. Until someone's presence stopped their conversation."Good morning, gentlemen," said a middle-aged man with a sturdy body and a neat navy suit and gray tie. An expensive watch was around his wrist. He walked with confident steps and a firm look. That man was none other than Raynold Clark.Behind Rayno

"Regarding the change of CEO, of course there will be an inauguration ceremony later. Now it's better if we return to the previous topic, isn't this meeting discussing Arison's new big project?" then Jacob Arison turned to Amanda Waverly. "Miss Waverly, has there been an agreement regarding this project?"Amanda swiftly answered, "Not yet, sir. This project is too risky and we are still considering whether we should continue with it or not. In fact, we were actually thinking of leaving the final decision to the leadership of this company."“Company leaders, that means it's your job, Reid. What do you think? Do we launch this new product, with huge risks, or choose to continue dealing with previously marketed products and play it safe?” Jacob asked, glancing at his grandson.Everyone's gaze in the meeting room was focused on Reid. Staring appreciatively at the young man whose presence today caused quite a stir among the Arison company officials.They saw that the young man moved calmly

Even though Reid had been introduced to company officials, he did not immediately work at the office that day.In fact, Reid could have gone straight to work that very day, especially since it was also to take advantage of the momentum when many company officials were curious about his figure.But Reid chose to go home because he was worried about his grandfather's condition. Even though his grandfather had looked fine in the meeting room, Reid knew his grandfather's capacity. It had been two hours since they left Arison's residence and since then his grandfather had been pretending to look fine. This cannot continue any longer.But of course Reid didn't tell them that the reason he left was because of that. The people at the Arison company—especially Raynold and his allies—must not know that Jacob's condition is not fine, even though it is not as serious as the rumors suggest.Reid covered up the reason for his departure by saying that he wanted the CEO's room to be cleaned first so
