2024-12-14 17:29:29Winsor quickly took Kenneth away from Ramona's house, not wanting Rosaline to go on an even worse rampage. They immediately got into the car that Winsor had brought and left the Ramona house area.
The car began to take Kenneth to the neighborhood where the rich lived, he couldn't believe he could get into an elite neighborhood like this.
Kenneth tensed up even more when he saw the car start to drive towards a house with a tall, wide fence. Kenneth even had to swallow when he saw the front of the house.
It seemed that Kenneth could not call this building a house. He would not be exaggerating if he called this building a modern-style palace.
Kenneth could see that the car he was riding in had stopped in front of a very grand entrance, and he had even forgotten to get out of the car.
When Kenneth realized the car door on his side had been opened from the outside by Winsor, who was waiting for him to get out of the car,
Before getting out Kenneth caught his breath to calm down, then he got out of the car and walked towards the magnificent entrance.
How surprised Kenneth was when he saw the big door open from the inside and saw an old man who was much older than Winsor coming out from inside the magnificent mansion.
Kenneth panicked inside when he saw the old man walking towards him with a big smile on his face.
“I finally found you, my grandson!”
Kenneth was surprised when the old man who walked with a cane in his hand called him his grandson. He immediately thought that this old man was the person Winsor referred to as his grandfather.
“I'm sure you still don't understand the situation, we better go in, I'll explain it to you,” said Robert, the old man who called Kenneth his grandson.
“I'm sorry, it's just that I still don't believe in all this,” Kenneth replied as he followed the old man into the luxurious mansion.
“Don't overthink about it. It's natural that you're confused because your pickup was very sudden.” Robert smiled warmly as he glanced at Kenneth, who was walking beside him.
Robert also took Kenneth to the living room where Kenneth didn't expect that there were already quite a few people there, he didn't expect that there would be other people.
There were four other people there of which there were three men and one woman who looked at Kenneth with curious eyes.
“Is he Keith's son, grandfather?” A fairly young man asked as Robert walked towards the sofa there.
“Yes, he will be part of our family from now on,” Robert replied, nodding his head and smiling brightly.
Kenneth couldn't help but stand there as he didn't know where to sit since the people sitting on the sofa were all rich, world-famous people.
“Are you sure he's Uncle Keith's son? No matter what, we still have to do something to confirm that he is Uncle Keith's son,” said the only woman there.
“It's not that we doubt you, grandfather. It's just that there have been many impostors claiming to be Uncle Keith's son; we have to be more careful,” the other young man chimed in.
Cold sweat began to emanate from Kenneth's body because he was very anxious at this time, considering that he did not know how he could convince them that he was the person they were looking for.
Finally, Robert spoke again after clearing his throat quietly to attract everyone's attention.
“If you want it then we will do it here. Kenneth, if you are indeed the son of my son Keith, then you must have a red lotus silver necklace on you, can you show us the necklace?” Robert asked Kenneth to produce evidence.
The other four people who were there also looked at each other because they understood what Robert meant because they themselves also had the red lotus silver necklace from their parents.
Hearing that, Kenneth frowned and took a box from his pants pocket; it was the only legacy from his parents given by the orphanage when he was old enough to receive the item.
Kenneth slowly opened the shabby box, and he could see a silver necklace inside the box. It had a lotus-shaped pendant adorned with a bright red ruby.
“I don't know if this is the necklace you are referring to. But this is the necklace that the orphanage gave me; they said it was the only thing my parents left me.” Kenneth showed the silver necklace to the others.
“One thing you should know, I don't know anything about my parents because I've been in an orphanage since I was a child, so I don't know if I'm the son of the person named Keith that you said,” Kenneth continued after gathering all his courage.
The people gathered there sighed when they saw the silver, red lotus necklace because it was already proof that Kenneth was indeed the person their grandfather was looking for.
“I knew that you had that necklace. With that being confirmed that you are indeed my grandson, I'm sorry that it took me so long to bring you home,” Robert explained as he exhaled heavily.
“But, why are you so sure? I'm still not even sure that I'm part of this conglomerate family,” Kenneth replied while looking down, he was still not ready for this change.
“Grandpa, it looks like you have to explain what happened to Uncle Keith; no wonder he looks so confused like that.” This time, it was the woman again who spoke up.
“Then you four go, I have to spend my time with him.” Robert waved his hand to shoo away his four other grandchildren.
For a split second, Kenneth could see that the four looked unhappy, and he realized someone was looking at him with displeasure, but it all disappeared so quickly that he thought he had misinterpreted the person's gaze.
“Welcome to the family. I'm Tyler, I hope we can be brothers who get along,” a young man said to Kenneth, then waltzed out of the living room.
“We'll see each other often, you can call me Stuart.” This time a man slightly older than Kenneth greeted him with a voice that sounded cold.
And the last man also walked past Kenneth coldly without saying anything, Kenneth also felt that he didn't really like his existence in this family.
“Just ignore Jack. He's like that. I'm Ivonne. Just look for us if you need help,” said Ivonne, the only woman in the room, waltzing away while patting Kenneth lightly on the shoulder.
After the others left the room Robert called Kenneth to sit on the sofa beside him. Kenneth obediently did what Robert said.
“So, what do you want to know from me?” Robert turned to Kenneth with a warm smile on his face.
“Before you explain my past, there is one thing that is bothering me right now. Why are you bringing me back now after all this time? What do you want from me?” Kenneth seriously looked at Robert.
Robert grinned as he heard Kenneth's question, “You do resemble Keith. The reason I brought you here is only one. I want to pass this family down to you,” Robert explained casually.
“Wouldn't those four people not accept it if you suddenly said that I would inherit your entire fortune?” Kenneth furrowed his brow in confusion.
“Besides the fact that I feel bad for Keith, I recently found out that there is a traitor in my own family.” This time, Robert's voice sounded sharp, not as warm as before.
Kenneth also fell silent when he heard Robert's words, not expecting that there would be a traitor. He regretted coming here because he felt a bad premonition at this time.
“I want you to be my heir and find that traitor for me,” Robert said while looking straight at Kenneth.
“From now on I will give you whatever you want and give you a significant position in the company, use all those benefits to help me, that's why I brought you back, Kenneth.” Robert with a serious face explained his true intentions.

As Robert had said earlier today, Kenneth was brought to Anderson Global Enterprise. Kenneth, who did not expect to be brought to the company so soon, was quite nervous. Not only did Kenneth Robert also bring his other grandchildren, but they were not in the same car as Kenneth and Robert. Kenneth was still not used to the way people treated him at this time. Even now that someone else opened the car door for Kenneth, he just had to step out without doing anything. With confident steps, Kenneth walked, following Robert from behind. As Kenneth stepped inside the company, he could see that there were already some important people waiting for them. "Welcome, chairman. We were surprised to hear that you wanted to have a board meeting today.""Have you decided who will be your heir?" "You will find out later," Robert said with a chuckle.

Kenneth's head hurt even more as he heard all the insults Ramona threw at him. Kenneth's eyes mimicked quickly when he saw Ramona's hand swinging towards his face; he already suspected that Ramona would do violence to him again. No longer wanting to continue to be bullied by Ramona, Kenneth quickly held back her hand, which was already swinging towards his cheek. "I won't let you insult me any further, Ramona." Kenneth looked at Ramona sharply. Ramona, who felt her hand being held by Kenneth, tried to release the grip, but unfortunately, she could not do so. "Damn, bastard! You've dared to fight me now," Ramona growled, her face already flushed with anger at this time. "It's time for me to be more assertive with anyone who insults me," Kenneth replied as he threw Ramona's hand, which he was holding. Because Kenneth threw her hand away, Ramona had to take a step back because she could feel Kenneth using a little force to throw her hand away. Ramona felt very angry at the moment;

Finally, Kenneth was pulled by Selena out of the conference room, and they decided to go down to the 32nd floor, where Kenneth's office would be. And Kenneth thought that Selena seemed very knowledgeable about the condition of this company. "Are you very close to Grandfather?" Kenneth glanced at Selena, who was standing next to him.Selena turned to Kenneth with a sweet smile on her face, "Yes, I've known Mr. Robert for a long time." Selena nodded her head. "Apparently so. It seems that I have to ask you a lot because I don't know anything about this family or about this company," Kenneth replied with an awkward laugh. "Don't worry, I'm here to help you. Mr. Robert personally asked me to help you," Selena replied while patting Kenneth lightly on the shoulder. Then, there was a clunking sound of the elevator, indicating that they had arrived at the floor they were heading to.

Because of the ruckus they made, a lot of people were gathering around Kenneth and Selena at the moment. However, Kenneth did not think too much about it now because he was going to tell these people that the person he was now was not the person he used to be. Kenneth wanted to tell them that they could no longer look down on him like before. Even so, Kenneth also did not intend to punish them because he did not want himself to turn into the evil people who humiliated him before. And now the man who had fallen down was just as shocked as the others gathered there, unable to believe what Kenneth had said. The man then laughed while mocking Kenneth, “You’re really crazy to hallucinate like that. Aren’t you afraid to confess like that?!” The man got up and grinned at Kenneth. Kenneth, who heard that, shook his head lazily; he was really lazy to deal with this type of person who was only full of himself. “Is it okay if I say that I’m the new CEO now?” Kenneth whispered to Selena, who

Kenneth immediately walked towards the dining table and greeted Robert politely.“Good morning, Grandpa.” After greeting Robert, Kenneth seated himself in the chair on Robert’s right side. “Morning. Are you ready for today?” Robert was actually quite worried about today, given that there were still many people who opposed Kenneth’s current position. “Of course, I won't let you down on my first day of official work,” Kenneth replied with a soft chuckle. Robert glanced around to make sure no one else was around. After he made sure, Robert said something to Kenneth in a low voice. “You still remember my request, right?” Robert said while stil

Kenneth also looked at the data from the file provided by Melody, and he could see that this matter was not as easy as he thought. “I just want to remind you, but you have to be careful from now on,” Melody said suddenly while glancing around. “What do you mean?” Kenneth raised one eyebrow in confusion, not understanding what Melody meant. “You know that there are many people who don't like you being in this position, right?” Melody glanced at Kenneth and Selena in turn. Selena also looked at Kenneth; it was common knowledge that power struggles among the children of conglomerates often occurred, so she did not feel surprised when she heard Melody’s words.

Kenneth could only hope that Selena and the others could find evidence to save him from this detention. "But who is trying to frame me like this?" Kenneth still couldn't figure it out, no matter how he thought he couldn't suspect anyone at the moment. "From an outsider's point of view, I am indeed the most suspicious suspect. But, I really didn't do it, so who could possibly have done all this?" Kenneth raised his head to look at the ceiling above his head. Kenneth was surprised when he heard other people's voices enter his sense of hearing. He forgot that he was not alone in this detention cell.

After Kenneth sat down, Selena immediately asked him to explain what happened. With a gloomy face, Kenneth sighed; he also did not know what was really happening at that time. The last time Kenneth saw Jack, he was still alive, so he didn't understand why he could suddenly die like this. Kenneth shook his head, "I don't know what really happened to Jack either. It's just that I did see him this afternoon and he was still alive at that time, I don't know what happened to him after that," Kenneth explained, downcast with his head hanging. "Do you still remember where you last met?" The lawyer brought by Selena immediately asked the questions she had to ask to help Kenneth later. "Of cours

Kenneth woke up from his sleep when he heard a noise from outside his room. He was confused when he heard the noise because it was rare for this house to be this noisy, considering that his grandfather was not used to the noise. Curious about what was going on outside, Kenneth pulled up his thick blanket, walked out of bed, and pulled out of his room. Kenneth could hear the noise more clearly after he left his room. Kenneth slowly walked towards the edge of the stairs to monitor the floor below. And how surprised Kenneth was when he saw a group of policemen who were arguing with Winsor as the butler of this mansion. Shortly after that, Kenneth saw his grandfather approaching the police.

What exactly did you do to them?” Selena didn't expect to see those people waiting for them like this.Kenneth just shrugged his shoulders indifferently, opened his car door, and got out of there. Selena quickly followed Kenneth out of the car and walked slightly behind Kenneth.“You've finally come. We've been waiting for you.” One of the messengers from a different mine from before rushed up to Kenneth and extended his hand to shake hands.“It's good to see that you can't wait to meet me.

What confused Kenneth at the moment was why Stuart and Tyler did not come with the delegates from this mine, considering that their subsidiary was the contractor at the mine. Kenneth massaged his temples while thinking that something was wrong there. He didn't know why Ethan and Ramona came to find trouble with him instead of Stuart and Tyler. Kenneth was relieved that he didn't want to fight his own cousins. Especially considering that Stuart and Tyler were not necessarily mean to him, although he still had to be wary of them because they could betray him. "Clear my schedule tomorrow, we're going to the mine to find out what they really want," Kenneth told Selena after they got back to his room. "But, your schedule is pretty tight tomorrow. I've already cleared your schedule for Thursday," Selena replied, feeling that she couldn't cancel Kenneth's entire schedule for tomorrow. Kenneth sighed. There were still two days until Thursday. Who knew what the mine would do at that time?
