Chapter 39 Fainted From Anger
On the other side
Tony called Samuel. “Dad, have you seen Annalise?”
“Yes.” Samuel’s tone was slightly heavy
“You agree with her being with Julian?’ Tony asked again.
“Yes, Annalise is a very good girl. She and Julian are talented and good looking. They’re very compatible.” Samuel said.
“But she grew up in the countryside. She is incompetent?
Samuel interrupted, “You haven’t got to know her How do you know she’s incompetent?”
Tony thought of Annalise’s arrogant attitude towards him in the cafe and he was about to explode. He then chided, “Dad, don’t be deceived by her appearance. She has nothing other than her looks. It’s bad enough that she’s an incompetent fool who grew up in the countryside Worse, she has no manners at all. Not only is she disrespectful to her elders, but she’s also greedy.”
“Greedy?” Samuel’s eyes narrowed slightly. “You think her choice to be with Julian is due to greed?”
“No, I called her out and asked her to leave Julian. She actually asked me for 1.5 billion dollars. Heh, she’s quite arrogant. I’ve never seen many in my life who’d dare to ask for 1.5 billion dollars like that Tony’s tone was filled with disdain, sneering when he spoke of it.
Samuel narrowed his eyes and asked, “You gave her a check and told her to leave Julian?”
“Yes.”
Samuel said in a low voice, “If someone humiliates you with a check, what will you do then? She was just treating you the way you treated her. Why do you think that she has no respect for her elders and is greedy? Tony, you to this age and you still don’t get it? Respect goes both ways. Lies beget lies. Similarly, humiliation will only result in humiliation.”
When Samuel thought of Annalise’s slender figure, the way she helped him clear his phlegm calmly and skillfully, the prideful way she refused to kneel in the face of his pressure, and the scene of her asking Tony for 1.5 billion dollars, his eyes suddenly became exceptionally kind.
Firstly, he really admired Annalise’s personality. Secondly, he felt that his grandson had really met a suitable person.
She was different from those other young ladies who tried their best to fight their way into the Parks family She was elegant and she had a backbone.
Julian needed such a person to be by his side for the rest of his life. When the storm came, she would accompany him and tell him not to be afraid.
After the storm, she would serve to also remind Julian to stay true to his heart.
“I don’t agree with Julian marrying a woman like Annalise.” Tony said.
“They’ve already registered their marriage. Besides, it’s not like Julian needs your approval,” Samuel said seriously.
“Dad, I’m Julian’s father,” Tony said.
“And I’m your father and Julian’s grandfather.”
Samuel was also someone who brought up Julian.
Samuel refused to budge.
He was the only one who knew how hard things had been for Julian,
Julian saw his mother jump down from the balcony on the second floor with his own eyes. Later, she was sent to the hospital and died.
He saw a pool of blood on the ground and the sausage in his hand fell to the ground. He lost control and burst into tears. He ran and shouted for his mother, “Mom, no, no, no, don’t die, don’t leave!”
“Dad, I’m already in my fifties now. Can you let me make my own decisions about my son? You’re already so old. Can’t you just sit back and enjoy your twilight years? Why do you still want to interfere in the matters of
the younger generation? I know you dote on Julian and want to give him everything, but tell me honestly, is Annalise worthy of Julian?
“Yes, I don’t care if their relationship is good or not. I don’t care if Julian is happy in the future, but I care about prestige. I care about the face of being a member of a wealthy family. I care about my face when I go out there.” Tony complained angrily. “I know that you think that you’re old and you feel you don’t have many years left to live. You think that the last person in this world who loves Julian is going to die. Therefore, you want to find a weaker woman to be with him.
“You think that a woman like Annalise will cling to him for the rest of her life, please him, and take good care of him. But Dad, do you really not care about the face of our family?”
When Samuel heard Tony’s words, he could not suppress his anger. “Do you want me to die now? Face? Are you worthy of talking to me about that now? If you cared about the Parks family’s face, why would you find a mistress outside to give birth to a bastard?”
From the day Tony brought his mistress and illegitimate child back, Samuel asked Tony to step down from his position as Parks Group’s president. Samuel would then personally oversee Parks Group.
He had always known that Tony bore a grudge against him.
However, Tony had brought his mistress and illegitimate son home, which was as ridiculous as it got. He had even caused Julian’s mother’s death. Samuel saw fit to punish Tony.
Samuel didn’t see himself as fit for managing his family, if he couldn’t punish Tony for what happened. However, they were still father and son.
After punishing Tony for three years, he sent Tony to expand the overseas market.
He did not want his family members to gossip and cause internal strife. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
When Tony called him just now, he had already fallen asleep. Looking at the time, it was already past midnight. He was a little angry and felt that Tony did not care about his condition at all.
From the looks of it, Tony had been holding a grudge against him for the past 20 years.
“I never wanted you to die. But Dad, I hope you know that no matter how ridiculous I am, I’m still your only son. Besides, I met my true love outside. What’s wrong with that?” Tony continued, “Dad, are you regretting it now? Are you regretting that you didn’t remarry after my mother gave birth to me and passed away?
“Are you thinking that if you choose to remarry, you might have many sons? That way, you won’t have to put so much effort to nurture a grandson as your heir. If you think that I’m useless, you can just find another son to inherit the family business.
“Not control your son and grandson like this.
“Dad, don’t you understand? You really are all alone.
e now!
“You kicked your own son out. You arranged your grandson’s marriage. Alexander is so capable, but in your heart, he’s still just a bastard you’re too ashamed to call family!”
“Tony, you jerk, how dare you!” Samuel was so angry that his chest heaved. He immediately reached out to hold the table and took deep breaths to calm himself down.
“Yes, I’m a jerk. I’m a playboy. I can’t control my lower body. Dad, you’re about to turn 80 years old. Can you stop being so self-centered? Don’t take everything for granted. Don’t think that everything you decide is right.
“Are all Jadeborough’s socialites dead? Why would a wealthy family like us take in a woman like Annalise? Or could it be that Annalise’s grandmother actually had a story with you when she was young or something?”
“You, you!” Samuel was so angry that his body suddenly stiffened. He fell back and twitched.
