A concerned frown appeared on Jeffrey's forehead. He turned to his father, Jordan, and huffed, "Dad, why don't we just sell off our property and run away with the money? If Kenneth really wants to attack us, we'll be dead!"

Jordan roared, "B*stard! Sell off our property?! If we sell it in a hurry, my billion-dollar empire may cost only 200 million! Do you know that, you idiot! This is my hard work!"

Liam nodded. "Dad is right. Jeff, Weaver Pharmaceutical is dad's precious creation, how could we sell it just like that?"

Jeffrey raised his hand and slapped Liam. "Shut up, b* stard! Do you think you have any say here?" 4

Liam stumbled a few steps back because of the force of the slap, covering his face. He pouted in dismay, but he spruced up and said firmly, "Jeff, I'll still say it even if you slap me. The company is dad's hard work, we cannot sell it!"

"I'm gonna f*cking kill you!" Jeffrey's face turned into an ugly shade of red. He was about to jump on Liam when Jordan, who had always looked down upon Liam, stepped up and stopped him. "Your brother is right! We must replace a way to solve this! You can't just sell everything and take off! It's my legacy that I worked for my whole life!"

Then, Jordan breathed a deep breath and said, "Listen carefully to what I'm about to say. Between you two, whoever can solve this crisis will be elected as the chairman of the Weaver Pharmaceutical. The person who fails in this mission proves that he is unable to lead and manage my company!"

Jeffrey burst out frantically, "Dad! How can this illegitimate b*stard inherit your company!"

Jordan growled, "B*stard or not, he is still my son! If you, as the eldest son, are not capable, you'll be abdicated!"

Liam, who was quietly listening to their commotion, heaved a sigh of relief.

He had been under duress in the Weaver family for so many years. After all the humiliation and insults, it was finally his time to rise! 1

Frankly speaking though, Jordan would not hand over his family business to an illegitimate child.

Unfortunately, his eldest son, Jeffrey, was incompetent. He had to replace a way to stimulate his enthusiasm and force him to replace a solution to the current crisis. 4

While the entire Weaver family was anxiously searching for a cure for Kenneth all over the world, Charlie entered his room after taking a shower. 2

Claire was lying on the bed in her nightgown, kicking her fair and smooth legs casually while browsing her

Twitter. 1

On the usual days, she was very busy with her work and was mounted by enormous pressure. Thus, watching nonsensical things on her phone and reading novels in bed had become her greatest leisure. Charlie was just lying down on his makeshift bed on the floor when Claire suddenly screamed and threw her phone away which landed on Charlie's face.

Ignoring the pain, Charlie asked nervously, "Dear, what's wrong?"

Claire's face twisted into a grimace. "Yikes, I just saw a video on Twitter, it's very disgusting..."

Charlie asked curiously, "What is it? Let me see how disgusting it is." He went to grab her phone that had fallen on the floor. 1

Claire shrieked again, "Argh, don't look! It's disgusting"

"How disgusting could it be? You've made me very curious."

Then, he turned on the screen and glanced at it, and he was stunned by what he saw. 2

It was Kian Webb, the creep who loved to psychologically manipulate girls...

Looking at his hysterical reaction in the video, it was confirmed that Charlie's hypnosis had worked!
