Those who went to the airport were cousins his age. His eldest cousin, Sarah Quirk, came with her husband and child, as well as her bachelor of a brother.

"Sarah, Alexander's condition seems to be pretty good this time. Do you think we can replace an opportunity to discuss the matter of investment with him?" Bennett Eaton, Sarah's husband, ventured while driving. Sarah frowned and said, "Didn't we already do so last time? He felt that it wasn't suitable."

"You two only communicated remotely previously. Now that you've met in person, maybe some drinks and a warm welcome might do the trick. It's truly a great project. Perhaps Alexander just doesn't understand it well enough yet," Bennett couldn't help arguing. "It's already rare that Alexander could come and attend Grandfather's birthday party this time. Let's not put him in a difficult position," Sarah chided impatiently.

Bennett couldn't help but grow slightly anxious. "How can it be considered putting him in a difficult position? You can't be so unbothered just because it's not a subsidiary of Quirk Group. At the end of the day, it's an investment company we both worked hard to establish." "What did you mean by that?" Sarah immediately demanded in displeasure. "If I'm so unbothered, I wouldn't have sought advice from Alexander back then. Grandfather said that in the Quirk family, no one surpasses Alexander in business acumen. He is a genius! Bennett's expression stiffened a touch. He couldn't help but grouse, "Your brother is a genius too."

Sitting at the back, playing a musical game with his niece, Carlos looked up, a faint smile gracing his lips.. "I can't compare with Alexander. I may have some talent in music, but he's genuinely intelligent. I still remember that he was already solving my math problems meant for an eight-year-old when he was just four."

Sarah was tickled pink. "The nerve of you to mention that. You couldn't finish your homework because you were too busy practicing the piano, so you asked Alexander, who was four years your junior, to help you with it. You're the only one who'd do such a thing." "Were you that stupid, Uncle Carlos? You fell short of a four-year-old child?" Sarah's daughter, Nina, asked that lethal question.

Carlos tapped Nina's nose lightly and said with a chuckle, "You're seemingly a year older than the new kid, but I heard he's pretty smart. So, if you have any difficulty in doing your homework, don't come to me. Go to him instead and let him crush you with his intellect," "Get lost. Don't lead my daughter astray," Sarah immediately interjected with a laugh.

"Exactly. I'm not stupid. I want to compete with him. But even if he turns out to be smarter, it's fine. I can always ask him to teach me what I don't know. As long as I've understood, I won't be considered as having lost to him!" Nina declared proudly. "Awesome!" Carlos immediately chuckled and pinched her cheek.

Just when the atmosphere in the car seemed to be improving, Bennett brought up business again. "Carlos, do you also think we shouldn't ask Alexander for help? We simply want to accomplish something personally. Being part of the Quirk family's company means always being under Alexander's control.

As Carlos noticed the palpable disappointment of Nina beside him, his gaze fell on the back of Bennett's head, a slight frown creasing his brows.

Sarah was about to interject in displeasure when Carlos replied, "Bennett, you know I don't involve myself in Quirk Group's affairs. Nor do I understand them. But I trust Alexander's judgment. If he says something isn't feasible, it can never succeed in the end. At the very least, under his leadership, not a single new project in the vast Quirk Group has ever gone wrong. Is it that hard to accept someone else's negative opinion?"

With a single sentence that sounded gentle, he imperceptibly rebutted Bennett.

He then asked, "Don't you have your own judgment, Sarah?"

Taken aback, Sarah recalled her initial assessment of the matter and immediately said, "You're right. Hubby, I had doubts about your project proposal from the very beginning. But you wouldn't believe me and insisted that I consult Alexander. Alexander also said the same. Why wouldn't you just take us for our word?"

At that, Bennett's expression darkened even further.

Glancing at the man through the rearview mirror, Carlos found it amusing inwardly. This brother-in-law of mine truly doesn't know his place. When it comes to business acumen, he can't even hold a candle to Sarah, let alone Alexander. Why is he so persistent? Anyone in the industry whose idea was rejected by the two members of the Quirk family would have the sense to switch to a different project. It's not like we're forbidding him from pursuing other

ventures.

"Okay, fine. I won't lecture you anymore." As Bennett's temper flared, Sarah immediately ceased talking, giving her husband a bit of respect.
