Ken clutched his face and looked at Jason in disbelief. It was the first time he had ever been hit. “Dad…”

“Im not your Dad! You’re no longer my son if you don’t apologize to Mr. Tate now!” Jason was firm.

He could tell that George had a soft spot for Milly. No wonder he had been waiting at the door without leaving.

If he couldn’t get Ken to give up, the Fitzgeralds might as well file for bankruptcy first thing in the morning.

However, Ken, who was in his rebellious stage, didn’t see it that way. Apologizing in front of the diva would make him die in embarrassment.

“I won’t do that!” He yelled and ran away.

“Get back here, brat!”

Jason tried to chase after him, but Ken was already out of sight.

At this point, George’s eyes had turned cold, his earlier good mood was completely gone.

He was in a good mood because Milly had said that she liked him. It was a melody to his ears regardless of

the truth.

Now, he felt furious as someone was eyeing her.

Jason wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, instinctively knowing that what was about to happen would be unbearable.

He had to save the Fitzgeralds. He couldn’t let his family’s legacy end in his hands.

Suppressing his fear, Jason pleaded with George. “Mr. Tate, it’s my fault for not raising that brat properly. Don’t worry, I’ll send him abroad tonight to a boarding school where he won’t get to come back these few years! He’ll never bother this young lady again.”

It was strange. Even though he was two decades older than George, he was utterly crushed by his presence.

George coldly raised an eyebrow. “These few years?”

Seeing George’s dissatisfaction, Jason quickly added, “Mr. George, it’s not an issue. During these years, I’l! expand our market abroad and keep him there. If he insists on coming back, I’ll hire bodyguards–no, special forces to follow him around. If he even thinks about approaching this young lady again, I’ll break his legs immediately, including his third one!”

The third leg too?

Milly was shocked at Jason’s will to keep his family business,

It worked! George’s expression improved significantly, and he nodded reluctantly. “Mhm.”

To Jason, it sounded like music from the heavens.

was cold but caring.

Milly slung her backpack over her shoulder and tried to walk past him. “No thanks. I’ll take a cab.”

Every time George spoke, she remembered those embarrassing statements she had made earlier. She wouldn’t hold back and choke him to death if they stayed together.

She hadn’t even started college or won any acting awards yet. She didn’t want to go to jail before achieving those things.

Milly sighed in relief as George didn’t stop her.

She hadn’t walked far when she heard him say, “Mr. Fitzgerald, does this room have surveillance cameras? Please send me a copy of the footage.”

Jason immediately responded, “Yes, I’ll contact the securities right away.”

Milly stopped dead in her tracks. She bit her lip as she cursed George in her heart.

He was blatantly threatening her. By asking for the surveillance, he clearly intended to use it to show her grandpa and parents. She wouldn’t be able to explain herself at all when that time came.

“Are you threatening me?” Milly turned to glare at him like an angry pufferfish.

George didn’t seem to notice her anger, explaining as a matter–of–factly, “Are you kidding me? The Tates and the Fitzgeralds are business partners. Understanding each other’s operations and checking surveillance is a normal part of our cooperation. Right, Mr. Fitzgerald?”

Jason didn’t dare disagree. He said while nodding furiously, “Yes, exactly. You might not understand our business customs. Checking surveillance is a standard procedure before signing contracts.”

Milly was at a loss for words.

Liars!

Although she hadn’t been a CEO, she’d acted in many corporate dramas and worked in several companies. She knew enough to know that no one checked surveillance before signing contracts.

Do they think that I’m an idiot?

George glanced at her and urged Jason, “Mr. Fitzgerald, I’m on a tight schedule and have a video conference coming up. Please get the surveillance footage quickly.”

“Of course, right away.”

Milly gritted her teeth and said, “Take me home instead of doing that.”

Since it was a free ride, why not enjoy it? It might be awkward, but it’s alright as long as I’m not feeling embarrassed.

George’s expression finally softened a bit.

Just then, he noticed the small gift box on the table. It was a long box, wrapped in old–fashioned wrapping

paper.

Recalling Milly wishing Ken “Hanny Birthday” just now, it wasn’t hard to guess what this was.

George walked over, picked up the box, and tore off the wrapping paper.

A silver fountain pen was lying inside the box. It wasn’t anything fancy. It looked plain and simple but he

wanted it.

Before he realized it, he’d already pocketed the pen and swapped it with the gold one he usually used to sign documents.

“You…” Milly frowned at his actions. “That was Ken’s birthday gift!”

George’s expression turned cold again. “You gave it to him?”

Milly didn’t even have the time to nod before Jason cut her off, “Haha, my son can’t even write properly. It’s a waste to give him a pen. Mr. Tate, you should keep it. That silver fountain pen suits you much better.”

Milly was speechless.

Even Danny, who had been standing silently aside, couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.

Jason’s flattery was amazing.
