Chapter 57
He should have seen this coming. Why would William and the family take this lying down? After suffering for so many years, they would not quietly continue to tolerate.
In fact, they might have been observing Palmers for a long time, and were doing all sorts of things to the detriment of Palmers profits. They have helped a group of animals!
"Diane said that her family was her family, and had nothing to do with our family."
Steven angrily continued, "This ungrateful Leech, I must be blind to have given them a chance!"
Gerald said nothing and just kept panting so he wouldn't faint from anger.
After a while, his breathing became more normal. He looked at Steven with red eyes, disappointment and anger written on his face. He really wanted to slap Steven hard for not being able to protect what belonged to them.
But when he saw how Steven's eyes were red and his face was so tired, he couldn't stand it.
"When they had that ungrateful child, I should have drowned him!"
Gerald clenched his fists and roared.
He took another deep breath to help himself stay as calm as possible.
There's no point in saying this now.
"Hmph, even if they have captured it, we must get it back!"
Gerald continued, "Steven, listen. I don't care how much we pay, but you have to make sure they regret doing this. Understood?"
"okay!"
Steven nodded seriously.
He hesitated again. "There's something else Dad. I'm not sure if I should say it."
"Regulate!"
Is there anything worse than this?
Gerald was almost mad with anger.
"Tomorrow, William and the family will start a new Palmer Group, and they have invited me to the opening ceremony."
Steven's face was red extinguished due to the humiliation and anger he felt.
"New Palmer Group?"
Gerald's blood pressure had just returned to normal, and was now soaring again.
Suddenly everything went black. Gerald cried, then his face flushed red, and opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood. He was so angry, he fainted and fainted on the floor!
"Dad daddy!"
Steven's face was deathly pale and he was holding Gerald. "Someone! Call ambulance! Now!"
The ambulance arrived shortly and took Gerald away.
Steven followed the ambulance and clutched his father's hand with worry written on his face.
"Dad, don't worry! It's gonna be okay, nothing's gonna happen to you!"
Gerald's mouth tilted slightly to one side, his speech was vague, and his hands and feet trembled violently. He wanted to say something but could not.
Gerald suffered a stroke.
The news reached William quickly. He just shook his head and said nothing.
Diane and April also said nothing. The Palmers have nothing to do with them anymore.
For Gerald, their family was no longer part of his family long ago.
The next day, William woke up early, shaved and styled his hair well.
He was wearing a new suit, a new tie, and leather shoes.
April personally helped William put on his tie. Her eyes became slightly teary as she looked at this charming and handsome husband.
He hasn't seen William this naturally in years.
"Honey, I promise, I will work hard so that you and Diane can live well" William said earnestly.
April nodded. "I know, I always believed that."
Ethan takes the family to the office.
The night before, Tom Foster had arranged for someone to change the nameplate from Foster Group to Palmer Group. He has also arranged for people to renovate the office.
All the workers in the office were waiting in the hall for the arrival of the new chairman and general manager.
Nobody expects a company to change its owner overnight. And even more surprising is that Tom Foster was the one who saw it in person.
Ethan stopped at the entrance. Tom Foster immediately went to take the wheelchair out of the trunk and put it in front of the car door.
"Come on, Dad, I'll help you."
Ethan helps William into a wheelchair while Tom Foster holds the wheelchair steady. After William sat down comfortably, he gently pushed the wheelchair.
"CEO Palmer, everyone is waiting for you" Tom Foster told William with a smile.
"Thank you!" William answered with great sincerity.
He doesn't know how all this happened, but he does know that if Ethan says there's no problem, then there really isn't a problem.
This could be the only chance he has to prove himself in this life, so he would appreciate it.
