Ch. 411..415: Stay Around You Now And Forever (Hunter Jackson) Chapter 411-415

Chapter 411: A Murky Conspiracy

Pregnant!

She and Joseph?

Emily looked at the pregnancy test on her phone and was so scared.

Just as the car stopped in the Gale's garage, Joseph immediately grabbed her phone.

It was Emily's pregnancy test report.

His face darkened and he used the phone on the car. "What's going on? I asked you to change the medical records to gastroenteritis, did I?"

"I have changed it to gastroenteritis. Joseph, this pregnancy test report is fake. Look carefully."

The assistant had read the headlines and was about to call Joseph, but he didn't expect that the Joseph would call him first.

"Fake?" Joseph frowned and looked at Emily, "Where is your report?"

"I have it." Only then did Emily remember and immediately took out the report that she had meant to destroy from her bag.

Compared to the report in her hands, the one spreading online was indeed fake!

It was not the same report at all!

It looked exactly the same, and even her examination time and her payment account number were the same.

However, the data were different!

Its progesterone data was fake!

In other words, the report online was fabricated.

"Have someone check this Weibo account."

"Joseph, we've already checked. It is owned by a popular star. However, she denied and claimed her account was hacked."

Joseph clenched his palm tightly.

This matter worsened.

"Joseph, Wendy and Young Master Hunter are still shopping. Do I need to keep following them?" the assistant asked.

"Yes." Joseph hung up the phone and got off immediately.

"Emily, I'll take you back first."

"No, Joseph, you must be hiding something from me."

Emily got out of the car. Under the great invisible pressure, she was almost out of breath.

"Can't you explain this to me?"

If she didn't sort it out, she would be more frustrated.

Then she looked at him with a serious look. "Wendy came to see you, didn't she?"

"Emily, it's impossible for me to collude with Wendy. Don't doubt me."

"I'm not suspecting you. I'm just afraid that Wendy has played some tricks on you."

Emily thought for a moment and frowned, "Why did you ask me this morning if I was injured more than a month ago?"

A lot of things were crossing her mind.

More than a month ago, she was knocked down by someone at school for no reason and got injured.

More than a month ago, Patriarch Gale went to the Bentson City to look for his own granddaughter.

More than a month ago, Wendy was not the granddaughter of Patriarch Gale, but their paternity test showed that they were related by blood!

Could it be...

"But, that's impossible. I've done the test. That's impossible!"

Emily shook her head and clenched her fists, "Impossible...'

Joseph knew that this girl was intelligent, so she could figure out the connection between many things.

In this case, he couldn't conceal it anymore.

"Yes, we met before. She told me that the blood sample she sent to the test in

Bentson City was yours more than a month ago."

"Mine?" Sure enough, it was exactly what she thought!

However, something was wrong!

"I had someone test me..."

"Is it possible that that person lied to you?"

"Impossible. Joe won't lie to me unless ..."

The more Emily thought about it, the more frustrated she became.

"At that time, I put our hair samples at the front desk of the hotel. As soon as we

left, Joe went to take the samples away."

As she looked at Joseph, her heart began to beat faster.

"Joe won't lie to me, unless my hair and Grandpa Gale's were swapped at the front desk."

But who was there by her side?

Only, Hunter!

If someone had controlled all of this, then that person must be Hunter.

But why? Why would he help Wendy and do this to her?

No, it wouldn't be Hunter.

Maybe it was Wendy again...

"When did this happen?"

"Yesterday."

"It can't be Wendy. Yesterday, she devoted all her energy to plotting against her injuries. She didn't have the time to meddle in those matters."

Actually, Joseph was not unaware of Wendy's hypocrisy.

However, he shared the same feeling with his Grandpa. Because of Wendy's identity, he did not expose her lie.

Grandpa said that the company belonged to his uncle's daughter.noveldrama

As a Gale, if he were to expose Wendy's lie of being injured, others would think that he wanted to compete with his uncle's daughter for family property.

He didn't intend to compete with Wendy at all.

Therefore, he could see through her like his Grandpa, but he was unwilling to reveal anything.

"Moreover, Wendy did not know that Hunter was here. She was surprised to see Young Master Hunter last night. It's true."

At the very least, he could see this clearly.

He looked at Emily and couldn't help but say what he knew he shouldn't talk about.

"You... must be on guard against Hunter."

Joseph admired this man and felt very sympathetic towards him before.

However, after knowing his cruelty to Emily, his impression of Hunter was greatly changed.

In addition, it was very likely that Hunter and Wendy were working together to do something.

If it was something that endangered the Gale family, he would never allow it! "Emily, now, let's find Grandfather first, and then I'll take you guys to do a test."

"You want to tell Grandpa Gale about this?" Would grandfather be angry after being told about it all of a sudden?

"No, Grandpa has heart problems. I can't say it until I know for sure."

"What do you mean? Doing a paternity test first?"

Now, even Emily suspected that the hair Joe had sent for test yesterday might

have been swapped.

If, she really was Sawyer's granddaughter...

She felt her heart ache, as if being hit by someone.

"What should we do? Last night, everyone saw we slept together. Also, Grandpa

said those things to the reporters this morning..."

Heavens, how could it become so complicated?

If she really was one of the Gale family, what would Grandfather do? How should

they explain their relationship? How should they explain it to the media?

Most importantly, with such a big scandal of the Gale Group, the shareholders would lose faith in the Group for sure.

At that time, the Gale Group's shares would be directly affected!

Heavens! What a ruthless conspiracy!

Ever since last night, it had got worse!

"Don't worry, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Things will get better."

Joseph held her hand and quickly walked towards the hall.

"Now, find Grandpa first and give you a test. Don't tell Grandpa before the report

is available. I'm afraid Grandpa won't be able to withstand it!"

Chapter 412: Have You Done Anything

"Young Master Joseph." Milo had been waiting in the hall ever since he received the call.

Seeing Joseph return, he came to welcome him.

"Emily, you are also here."

"We met outside." Joseph glanced at the hall.

There were a few servants working separately in the hall.

This family used to be very quiet and peaceful, but now, for some reason, he felt that it was filled with ulterior motives and dangers.

He whispered, "Milo, can I speak to you?"

Milo took them directly to Patriarch Gale's study.

Normally, other than Patriarch Gale, only Milo could enter the study room. Even

the servants didn't dare to clean it up without permission.

Milo had to keep an eye on them every time they cleaned the study.

So, the study was of great significance.

"Young Master Joseph, what exactly is going on?" Milo asked after closing the thick door.noveldrama

"Is something wrong at the family?"

Although Joseph hadn't said anything yet, he could feel a great sense of unease.

"Milo, there's still no news of Grandfather?"

"Not yet. I've sent someone to look for him. There's no news yet."

"Where's Sasha?" The headlines in the morning were all about the Gale family.

At that time, the one who was with Grandfather was Sasha.

"Sasha can't be found either. I heard that she went out for fun with Patriarch Gale."

Where did she go? She didn't tell anyone and couldn't be contacted at all.

"Neither of them can get through." Milo became more and more worried, "Joseph, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Others didn't say anything. In this way, Milo, the old butler became more and more frightened, afraid that something bad would happen.

Joseph hesitated a little. But with the help of Milo, they might handle this matter more easily.

"Milo ..."

"Joseph, don't suspect me. You can trust me."

Milo felt sad when he saw that Joseph was in a difficult situation.

"I've worked for Patriarch Gale for so many years. And I have known you since you were a child. You know what I am like."

Joseph comforted, "It's just that so many things happened all of a sudden at our family. There's just a lot going on in my heart."

"Milo, don't blame Joseph. He ... he is in a difficult situation right now."

Emily, who had been silent all this while, also helped console Milo.

Milo sighed, "I won't blame him. Actually, I'm panicking too."

He looked at the two of them and said helplessly, "The more you don't tell me, the more I panic."

Joseph did not intend to hide anything and said, "Wendy is not Patriarch Gale's granddaughter. I believe that Emily is."

"What?" Milo was so frightened that he almost had a heart attack.

"I... I'm not sure." Emily didn't want to deceive others. She was really not sure.

"I've asked someone to do a test before. The results show that I'm not Grandpa Gale's granddaughter."

"I told you, it might have been tampered with by someone. If we do it again, we will know the truth."

Joseph's hand landed on her shoulder and grasped it gently.

"I believe you are. Based on my instincts, I believe you are."

"However, this is not something that can be determined by instinct," Milo said hesitantly.

He was in a mess.

Wendy was not Patriarch Gale's granddaughter, but could Emily be?

"But back then, we brought Wendy to do the test with Patriarch Gale. You were also present."

"Someone tampered with the test. Wendy admitted that the blood sample she used for the paternity test was Emily's."

Hearing what Joseph said, Milo's head went blank.

What the hell was this?

Suddenly, he frowned, "You mean Wendy ... Did Wendy say it herself?"

If it was true, Milo would be even happier.

Since Wendy returned to the Gale family a month ago, she had made a mess of the family.

He didn't like Wendy at all.

In the Gale family, Patriarch Gale had no choice but to like Wendy because of his guilt towards Harley.

Other than him, none of the others really liked Wendy.

Especially those who knew some inside story of the family.

After Wendy returned, she had caused so many fake accidents and the family was on tenterhooks all the time.

However, Wendy told Joseph that she was not the granddaughter of Patriarch Gale. Wasn't that strange?

"I took her hair and grandfather's hair for identification. She found out, so she admitted it."

"Then she ..."

"Milo, you probably didn't pay attention to the entertainment news. Grandpa has spread the news that Emily and I are getting engaged."

Milo immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.

It worsened. If others discovered that Emily was Patriarch Gale's granddaughter,

the Gale family would definitely lose their reputation because of Joseph and

Emily.

Was this why Wendy was so unscrupulous?

"Joseph, what should we do now?"

Since that was the case now, it was very difficult to deal with!

"Find Grandpa first. After identifying Wendy, I'll settle the scandal with Emily when

it dies down."

"But... But, what's going on?"

Milo accidentally flipped through some news.

His gaze involuntarily fell on Emily's lower abdomen.

"Emily, you ..."

Emily felt guilty. Although she knew that he had misunderstood her, it was true

that she was pregnant!

"Fake news!" Joseph did not feel burdened when he said this.

Even if others knew that he had concealed her pregnancy later, it would be his responsibility, and it had nothing to do with Emily.

"But last night..."

"Emily and I have been drugged!"

Joseph looked outside the door. "Some drugs were added to the snacks Kira sent us last night."

"Kira?" Damn it! In this family, under his eyes, she dared to make such a mistake!

"It doesn't have to do with her. I saw that she had a natural expression when she came in."

Perhaps even Kira did not know that someone had added drugs to the snacks. "Then you ..."

Milo was worried that they had been drugged. Then ... did they have sex...

"No." Joseph secretly heaved a sigh of relief. "People came before they could make a mistake."

That person seemed to be an experienced drug expert.

That person used an appropriate dosage of drugs. So when everyone came, they were frightened and the effects of the medicine faded.

This was to give them a chance to explain themselves, but it was also an invisible step that worsened the matter.

The point was, Joseph didn't know that Emily was his cousin last night.

If he knew, he would rather make the matter public and thoroughly investigate at

home than allow it to worsen!

Joseph's phone rang and he immediately picked it up.

Emily and Milo looked at him anxiously.

At this moment, a sign of disturbance or trouble was enough to cause one's heart

to tremble!

Most importantly, where did Patriarch Gale go?

After hanging up the phone, Joseph pursed his lips and said, "Grandfather has gone out to the sea, but for the time being, I don't know where he is."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "Also, Young Master Hunter and Wendy have got rid of our people!"☐☐☐☐☐☐

Chapter 413: You Cause It

Hunter wasn't that kind of witless person to be easily tracked.

Therefore, Emily didn't feel surprised that Hunter got rid of their people.

However, he took Wendy away ...

Emily and Milo immediately felt uneasy.

Wendy also disappeared. What exactly was she going to do? Where was grandpa

now?

"Joseph, have you located the dock?"

What concerned Emily most was her grandfather's safety.

If Wendy just wanted to defraud Sawyer of his money, Emily would let her go as long as her grandpa was safe.

Emily hadn't heard from her grandpa for so long. She couldn't help but worry about the possibility of him being murdered by Wendy already.

Her grandpa had a heart attack, so he wouldn't stand it.

Joseph saw her through easily.noveldrama

Rubbing her hair, he said softly, "She won't."

"Don't be afraid. Wendy doesn't dare to do anything to our grandfather. Grandfather is, after all, a big shot in City L. If she hurts him, her life won't be spared. In no way will she leave Bentson and City L alive."

Their grandpa should most probably be safe now.

After all, Wendy's roots were here. She wouldn't uproot herself and head for somewhere else with a false identity.

Having picked up his phone, Joseph glanced at Emily and Milo.

"Milo, Emily doesn't feel well. Stay at home with her. I'll go out and continue looking for grandfather."

"No, I want to go with you."

Emily tugged at his sleeve. "Whether he is my biological grandfather or not, in my heart, he is my grandfather!"

She wouldn't let her grandfather suffer.

Sawyer was at the sea.

He didn't even know where he was.

As soon as he boarded the ship, he felt a little dizzy. Thus, he went into the room

to sleep, and he just woke up.

Looking around, Sawyer was greeted by boundless blue water.

"Sasha, why did Wendy send us here?"

Although he liked to go to the sea for fun, he didn't find it interesting without Milo and Emily around.

"I don't know. Your granddaughter arranged it. I'm following her instruction." Seated opposite him, Sasha was having the hot drinks prepared by the chef. It was very cold today. The sea breeze, which blew on her face, was chilly. Therefore, both of them wore thick coats and were covered by blankets.

It was unfit to sail in weather like this.

It was off-season on all the islands.

Why did Wendy send them to the island at this time? Was it fun?

"Are we going to continue like this?"

Sawyer had been sitting for half an hour, and he got impatient.

Looking at his phone, he found that there was still no signal. Thus, he couldn't even contact Emily.

He missed Emily.

He left the house early in the morning, and he didn't know how Emily was in his house.

Did she eat well or get used to living there? Did the servants serve her well?

He was worried about Emily, who completely occupied his mind.

Sawyer cared about no one but Emily.

"Does it have Internet on board?" He asked.

As he couldn't contact Emily, he felt more eager to.

"No, it doesn't work. I tried it just now, but I cannot get access to the Internet."

Sawyer would never expect that his daughter, who had been with him for so many years, would lie to him.

The ship was moving faster and faster. Sawyer had no idea where he was.

Another half an hour passed. Sawyer became even more anxious.

"Sasha, how about us going back?"

It was boring out here.

"The banquet will be held tomorrow. Things are yet to be settled. How can I leave at this time?"

"Dad, I don't have the final say in this matter. Your precious granddaughter has." Sasha completely shirked her responsibility.

She spread out her hands and shrugged. "You know Wendy's temperament. She's overbearing."

"She..." Sawyer sighed.

Sasha tilted her head, staring at his face.

A thought flashed through her mind.

"Dad, I really want to ask you why you are so partial."

"What?"

He thought that she was talking about Wendy, so he felt frustrated.

"Sasha, you're an elder. Pass over Wendy's rude behavior. Daddy also loves you, but Wendy lost her mother and father since she was young. She has never been cared by anyone. I ... just want to make up for her lack of love for Harley."

"Dad, I am not referring to Wendy."

Wendy was Harley's daughter. Sasha knew they bore no comparison with her. Thus, it was better not to bother.

"Not Wendy? Then ..." Sawyer frowned, a little puzzled. "Do you think that I treat you worse than Lottie?"

He didn't admit this, convincing that he had always been impartial.

Sasha's face darkened slightly as she said indifferently, "Dad, you treat me very well, and I will never compare myself to anyone else."

"Then ..."

"Francis is good, although Joseph is better. Have I been too strict with Francis in company?"

"Sasha, do you think that I'm biased towards Joseph and treat Francis like hell?" Sawyer was shocked. How could she blame him for that?

Sasha hung her head, having her hot drink with silence.

Her son, Francis, also graduated from an elite school.

Yes, she admitted that her son was not as outstanding as Joseph, but Francis was a talent.

Even if he couldn't be the president of the Gale Group like Joseph, he was quite qualified to be the vice president.

At the very least, he could be a general manager. Then, he would be in charge of

a few production and sales lines, as well as some big projects.

But, he got nothing.

As the director of the Human Resources Department, Francis didn't have any real power in the company.

Thus, he didn't even want to go to the company, keeping muddling along.

He must have suffered a heavy blow, which was why he became like this.

She didn't believe that Francis was born to be a prodigal!

After a long time, Sasha said coldly, "If you haven't deprived him of his power, how will he hate going to work?"

"Didn't Francis told you why he was appointed as the director of the Human Resources Department?"

Sawyer stared at his daughter.

Sawyer didn't expect that after spending so many years together, his daughter

had been nursing so many grievances against him.

"Sasha, you should ask him about this, not me."

"Even if Francis does something wrong, you can discipline him. Why did you

deprive him of his power?"

Sasha gave full vent to her grievances, which had been nursed over the years, in

a violent outburst on hearing Sawyer's words.

She firmly believed that Sawyer's bias against his son discouraged Francis!

She stood up abruptly, and the blanket fell down from her.

Staring at Sawyer, she blushed with anger.

"Dad, Francis is excellent in character and learning. If you haven't deprived him of

his power, with his ability, he would make an achievement!"

"Because of you, he loses confidence in himself, and hates working at the Gale

Group. Thus, he keeps muddling along!"

Sasha became more and more emotional as she spoke in a choked voice.

"Dad! Francis becomes like this because of you,!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐

Chapter 414: The Atmosphere Was So Strange Today

"Sasha, you should talk to Francis about this matter."

Sawyer didn't want to explain too much, for Sasha wouldn't believe him.

"I want to tell you that I attach equal importance to my two grandchildren. I will never be biased against anyone."

"If so, then let Francis be the president of the Gale Group!"

Sasha stared at him with a gloomy expression.

As the wind blew, Sasha looked terrifying.

"Joseph has been the vice president for three years, and the president for two years. It's Francis' turn now. Then you'll see if he is able to make profits for the company."

If Sawyer agreed, Sasha would believe that he was impartial!

Sawyer got angry. "Sasha, you are talking nonsense."

"Do

you I think the Gale Group is a small private company, and that the president and vice president can be casually changed?"

"Dad, although the company has been listed, you have most of the shareholdings."

Sasha knew that she was a little impulsive. But for her son's sake, she decided to vent her grievances!

"You have the absolute right to change the president of the company. Even if a board meeting is needed, as long as you agree, all shareholders will listen to you."

The so-called shareholders of the company were just insignificant ones.

Sawyer wielded enormous power, the rest of which was also in the hands of the Gales.

Unlike ordinary listed companies, the Gale Group was basically a family business. Sawyer had right to appoint the president.

But he hesitated. Wasn't it because he didn't want Francis to be the president so as to protect Joseph?

Sawyer coughed in a fit of temper.

He coughed a little hard, his breathing gradually becoming heavy. He was out of breath.

Sasha thought that he was pretending so as to avoid discussing this matter with her.

However, her father's face turned completely red, and gradually, it turned a little purple.

Sasha panicked. She hurriedly went over and patted his back.

"Dad don't! I just want to tell you my thoughts. Don't bluff me."

...

However, having not got his breath back, Sawyer was unable to continue talking to her.

He coughed himself hoarse.

"Dad, I'll stop. Don't cough. We're at sea. It'll take quite a while to go back."

"Dad, stop coughing. I won't talk about it anymore." she said as she patted him on the back harder.

Sasha thought the wind outside might be too strong.

"Dad, let's go inside." She supported Sawyer and hurriedly returned to the cabin.

As expected, after returning inside, Sawyer's cough was better.

His puce face gradually returned its' normal color.

Sasha poured a cup of warm water. After Sawyer had it and stopped coughing, she let out a sigh of relief.

However, she still felt wronged.

Sawyer avoided talking with her about this topic.

Thus, she felt bad.

After having some water, Sawyer calmed himself down, and then turned to look at her.

Sitting at the side, Sasha checked her grievances with a grim look.

He wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't.

"You should talk to Francis. It won't be too late to talk to me after that."

Sasha ignored him. She took out a magazine, starting to read it on the sofa. Sawyer found gravely that there was no signal.

Looking at Sasha, he said, "Let them sail back. I want to go home."

"I'm afraid that they won't listen to me. Wendy sent those people here." Sasha continued reading the magazine without even raising her head.

Sawyer was puzzled. If he wanted to go back, would those people disobey him?

He stood up, wanting to talk to those people in the control room. Unexpectedly, Sasha said, “Dad, don't waste your time. We'll get the destination soon in at most half an hour."

"But I..." He had no interest to go there. He wanted to go home.

"You always say that you owe Harley, and you want to compensate Wendy. You aren't even willing to meet your granddaughter's request, how are you going to compensate her?"

Sawyer could clearly feel that Sasha was in a very bad mood today.

However, considering what she said just now, her rude attitude was understandable.

Sasha misunderstood him.

Sawyer was a little depressed. This problem was too complicated to be solved in

a few words.

He agreed to wait another half an hour.

He sat on the sofa and drank half a glass of hot water.

Then he felt dizzy, falling asleep again.

"Grandfather, Grandfather, wake up." A girl's voice rang in his ears.

Grandfather?

Sawyer opened his eyes slightly.

The light in the room was too dazzling for him to see everything clearly.

He vaguely felt a girl by his side was calling him grandfather.

Grandfather ...

Without thinking, Sawyer said, "Emily

Wendy's face darkened.

11

She knew this old man liked Emily, but she didn't expect him to be this loving.

He was supposed to be in the dark about Emily's real identity.

His whereabouts were under control today, so he didn't have the chance to know about this matter at all.

"Grandfather, it's me."

The girl's voice turned cold. Sawyer realized that this girl was not the one who he missed, but her voice was familiar.

"Wendy?" Sawyer finally saw everything clearly in front of him.noveldrama

He slowly sat up.

"It's me." Wendy nodded and helped him sit up.

Sawyer felt dizzy. Looking around, he found himself in a room.

However, the floor shook slightly. Even though it wasn't anything violent, he was

aware that he was still on a boat.

However, compared with the previous ship, this one was much more stable. It should be a vessel.

"Wendy, where are we? Where's Sasha?"

Sasha got angry with him. Why did she disappear? Did she hate him?

After he slept for a while, Wendy appeared while Sasha wasn't around. For some reason, Sawyer suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Aunt is resting in the next room." Wendy smiled sweetly, which relaxed people.

But Sawyer was still a little uneasy.

"Wendy, why did you take Grandpa here?"

What worried him most was that he slept so soundly that he failed to realize that

his boat was changed.

Even if he was old, he was not weak, and he never slept so deeply.

Normally, he slept lightly. Any movement in the room would wake him up.

What was going on today?

He looked at Wendy in confusion. Unexpectedly, he felt rather ill at ease with her.

"Wendy, why do I feel ... you guys are very weird today? What exactly are you doing behind my back?"

Chapter 415: If You Want to Compensate Me

Fully alert, Sawyer could sense something usual.

Considering Sasha was his daughter and Wendy was his granddaughter, no matter how uneasy he was, Sawyer wouldn't suspect that they were ranging against him.

With a sweet smile, Wendy employed a cold tone of speech.

"Grandfather, didn't you say that the Gale Group belonged to me?"

Sawyer was surprised, failing to understand what she meant.

"Grandpa, the banquet will be held tomorrow. But I am still a nobody."

"You are my granddaughter!" As his granddaughter, how could she belittle herself as a nobody?

"But others will think that I'm just an adopted child."

"Who dares to think so?" With a grim face, he said unhappily, "Who is talking nonsense?"noveldrama

Seated beside the bed, Wendy looked at him calmly.

Her look made Sawyer feel worried. "Wendy, if you have anything to say, feel free to tell Grandpa."

"Grandpa promised me to give me the shares." Since he wanted her to be straightforward, she would make herself clear.

Sawyer returned hurriedly, "I did promise you. I plan to make an appointment with the attorney and transfer the shares to you on Monday."

"Tomorrow, you will announce openly that I am your granddaughter. Everyone will know that I am one of the Gales."

Wendy was obviously not satisfied with his arrangement.

She snorted with a scowl.

She was completely different from the girl who used to be gentle in front of him.

"How do you think I should answer if someone asks me tomorrow how many shares of the Gale Group I have?"

Sawyer remained silent.

He understood what Wendy meant.

In fact, he didn't mind transferring the shares to her now.

As he said, the Gale Group, sooner or later, would be hers.

However, Sawyer was disappointed in Wendy, who coaxed him and brought him here for the shares.

He had a feeling that he had been fooled.

Because of deception and the trick, they were estranged from each other.

However, she was Harley's child. What could he do?

"Wendy, what do you want me to do?"

Sawyer sighed sadly.

As expected, Wendy took out the agreement she had prepared beforehand and handed it to him.

"Grandfather, I've already contacted the lawyer. You have 30 percent stake in the Gale Group. As long as you sign this agreement, my identity of being your granddaughter will be perfectly justifiable."

Sawyer became even sadder.

She had even prepared the agreement!

Although he had promised, he felt so bad to be forced to transfer her his shares.

Sawyer kept looking at Wendy, which didn't mean hesitation. He was just so disappointed.

Wendy frowned unhappily.

"What's wrong, Grandpa? Have you been lying to me? You never treat me as your granddaughter!"

"How could it be?" However, these words didn't sound enthusiastic.

"Then why do not you sign?" Today, Wendy insisted on him signing it!

With a sigh, Sawyer took the agreement and picked up the pen.

However, after he read the agreement carefully, his expression completely changed.

"Do you want all my 30 percent shares?"

Hadn't they arranged that he would give her 10 percent?

It was written on the agreement that he would transfer 30 percent to her. What ... what was she going to do?

"What's wrong? Is there any wrong with 30 percent?"

Pretending to be innocent, Wendy tilted her head and stared at him. “Grandfather, are you reluctant to give it to me?"

Sawyer didn't know what to say. She wanted to take away all his stake!

Wasn't her too greedy?

Noticing that he hesitated for a long time, Wendy was unhappy, and her face darkened.

"Grandfather, you said that my father would inherit the Gale Group. But back then,

it was all your fault that my father died!"

In shock, Sawyer stared at suddenly.

Never would he expected that she would say such words!

"Isn't that true? Grandpa, you didn't allow Dad and Mom to be together so that they eloped."

Wendy had done many things during the past month when she was in Gale's mansion.

She investigated everything that had happened back then.

"Do you know what my father's life has been like after he eloped? Grandfather, don't you regret?"

"Wendy, stop talking." He did regret deeply.

Sawyer pressed his hand against the chest, suffering a chest distress.

"Why can't I say it? Grandpa, my parents died because of you. Now, you even forbid me from saying it."

Wendy sneered, showing no sympathy on seeing his pale face.

"Since you've done it, you shouldn't deny it. Grandpa, is it really hard for you to admit that you owe me?"

"I do owe you. Wendy, let it go. Grandpa will take good care of you."

He didn't want to talk about the past anymore, nor did he want to think about it again!

He felt uncommonly painful.

He had a guilty conscience. This was his greatest regret in his life as well as his raw nerve.

"You said that you would take care of me. But how?"

His so-called guilty conscience made Wendy disgusted.

"Wendy..."

He didn't understand why his precious granddaughter suddenly became like this.

Did she hate him so much? Was she reluctant to forgive him?

"Grandfather, since you have feelings of guilt about my parents' death, why don't you sign this agreement?"

Wendy looked down at him with contempt.

"You've ruined my family. If you don't want to pay, it means you don't truly love my father, Harley."

"Don't say again that I am your precious granddaughter and that you want to compensate me for my father's sake!"

"Because in your heart, no one is as important as you!"

Sawyer's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing became heavier.

After taking a few deep breaths, he looked at Wendy painfully.

Looking at the agreement in his hand, he was quite disappointed.

"Grandpa, if you really want to compensate me, then sign it."

Wendy's voice kept ringing in his ears.

It lingered like a devil's voice.

"Grandpa, don't hesitate. You said you would take care of me and wanted to

compensate me, didn't you?"

A pen was stuffed into Sawyer's hand, and the agreement was spread out in front

of him again.

Wendy held his hand and placed it on the agreement.

The nip was pointed at the place where he should sign.

With a smile, Wendy stared at Sawyer's eyes.

"Grandfather, sign it."000
