Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte)
Regret H 453

Chapter 453

The living room remained silent.

Although Luke had left, Frank was still around.

The Smith family had long been wary of him, and with the current situation, their apprehension only grew.

Madam Smith gave Frank a reproachful look. "You unruly child, aren't you going to see your grandfather? He's been looking forward to your return!" Since Sir Smith's heart attack two years ago, his health had deteriorated significantly.

He rarely made appearances at family dinners.

Knowing that Frank might come back today, Madam Smith and Mrs. Smith had kept this information from Sir Smith, fearing he might clash with Luke again. That was why Sir Smith hadn't attended the family dinner.

Frank's previous hostility had vanished,. He quickly stood up and said, "Alright, I'll go now."

Megan, who had been standing aside, immediately said, "Frank, I'll go with you." In the study of the Smith family's residence.

As soon as Luke entered, he kicked Lucas away!

He was filled with frustration. "What are you standing around for? Hurry up and contact the RF Group to clarify the situation!"

"I'm on it!" Lucas, seemingly unbothered by the pain, swiftly got up and took out his phone to make a call.

He wasn't calling just anyone. He was calling Gary.

It didn't take long for Gary to answer. "Who is this?"

Hearing this, Lucas gritted his teeth but kept his tone even, "Gary, this is Lucas from the Smith Group." Chapter 453

It wasn't the first time Lucas had contacted Gary.

Gary had been by Ryan's side for many years, and as an assistant, he had refined his skills in human affairs.

Yet, every time he received Lucas's call, he would always ask, "Who is this?"

Could he really not remember? Naturally, that wasn't the case.

It was simply that he didn't regard him highly at all!

Gary, influenced by Ryan's demeanor, was also accustomed to speaking in a cold tone. "Hello."

Lucas restrained his emotions and kept a polite demeanor. "I heard that you're thinking about working with SZ Technology?"

He didn't directly ask if they were already cooperating because, in his mind, it was impossible.

"Looks like the saying walls have ears is true." Gary smiled. "It's not just an intention. The cooperation has already been established. A press conference will be held in a few days to officially announce the news." After hanging up, Lucas's face paled, and he didn't dare to speak.

Luke demanded angrily, "What's the situation?"

"What Frank said is true."

Slap-

Lucas was slapped so hard that his glass fell off!

Luke glared at him fiercely. "Don't take on jobs beyond your capability. What did you promise me before joining the Smith Group?"

Luke had always felt that Frank's actions were too flamboyant and

unpredictable, so he had supported Lucas's rise to power.

Lucas, tasting the blood in his mouth, looked grim. "I might have failed this time. Give me another chance..."

He would never lose to Frank again.

"Another chance?" Luke spat angrily and interrupted. "Go ask Frank if he'll give you another chance! You're just useless! How can you be so different from him, even though you both share the Smith family's blood?" Leaving this heart-wrenching accusation behind, Luke stormed downstairs!

For now, he had to use that unfilial son to stabilize the situation. Once the Al project was steady, he would kick him out just like two years ago.

Frank had finished visiting his grandfather and sat leisurely on the sofa, watching Luke coming downstairs, smiling as he asked, "Mr. Smith, have you confirmed everything?"

Luke was still unwilling to embarrassment himself. "I agree to what you said earlier."

"You agree?" Frank cocked his brows slightly, stood up, and adjusted his cuffs. "Mr. Smith, hasn't anyone taught you how to ask for things properly?"
