Chapter 642
Among the four, he was the happiest one.
Lucian stood up and said, "Mission completed. Why don't you treat us to dinner?"
Victor squinted at the time on the computer, and it was time to get off work.
"Maybe some other time. I'm too busy recently." He got up and turned off the computer. The kids would start school soon, so Eden must also be very busy.
Lucian nodded slightly and said, "Fine. I've also been pretty busy these past few days. Let's take a rain check. By the way, Mr. Rubio has already left River City. If you want to meet him, I will arrange an appointment for you next time."
He was also very tired. He had not had a good rest since the fair had begun.
"OK!" Victor nodded. He had thought that Loomis would make some requests since he had helped Eden and the Alwynn Group. But unexpectedly, he had left after signing the contract, without saying anything.
Lucian stood up and walked towards the outside. As he walked, he said, "I'm glad that I don't have to work overtime today. I'm taking off now."
"Fine!" Victor responded softly. He picked up the coat beside him and followed Lucian out. He would go straight to Eden's office, intending to go home together with her.
Lucian looked back at him, saying "By the way, don't forget to thank Kenny when you get back. I heard that the computers of the Jotham Alwynn Group all crashed. Kenny is really amazing."
Victor proudly curled up the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were deep and dazzling. He said, "I know." Kenny was his son, and naturally, he was extraordinary.
When it came to pride and arrogance, no one could defeat Victor.
Lucian smiled slightly. Indeed, Victor was justified to be arrogant, and even Lucian admired Kenny's ability.
In fact, he was more impressed by Eden's ability to educate the children so well. The three children were all very self-disciplined. Some adults might not be able to do better than them. Suddenly, a wicked smile appeared on Lucian's face as he said, "Victor, don't you feel ashamed to be proud of Kenny?"
Victor,
What did this guy mean?
"You shouldn't get any credit for his excellence." Lucian looked at him.
Victor understood now.
The corners of his lips twitched slightly, but he still looked quite proud, saying, "I'm the one who has contributed the most. Can't you see how good my genes are?"
"That's all you've got. You contributed nothing to his education," Lucian said.
Hearing this, Victor was too embarrassed to speak anymore, and he could find no words to refute. He had never done anything for the kids, but he was glad that it was still not too late.
In the future, with his company, the three children would grow better.
The computers of the whole Jotham Alwynn Group were still out of service.
Although Justin was very capable, after a day, he still hadn't cleared the virus.
It made Vincent suspect his capability.
This matter had been reported to Phillip. After learning what had happened, he flew into a rage.
Jaxon asked Vincent to go to Phillip's office.
Seeing his furious father, Vincent signed in his heart. His father had known what had happened, and he was dead meat this time.
The old man was still caring about Victor, that son of a b*tch.
Victor's brilliant accomplishments in the past few years had always been Phillip's pride. After all, he had never had such achievements in his younger years. Victor had made everyone look at him with new eyes in the fast three years.
This was also Vincent's greatest pain point. In the past three years, he had tried to work hard, but now he had made no improvement.
He felt that there had always been an insurmountable gap between Victor and himself.
"Pa!" Phillip slapped Vincent in his face and looked at him angrily. "Vincent, look at the mess you've made. Is that all you have? Do you only know playing tricks behind? This company will be finished by you sooner or later."
Vincent had been slapped, but he kept his head down and said nothing.
If he argued about it, his father would definitely drive him out of the company.
His mother had already been thrown out. If he were also kicked out, he and his mother would be doomed.
"Why don't you talk?" Phillip glared at Vincent.
Vincent blinked slightly and kept his head down silently. Whatever he said now would be regarded as sophistry.
As long as this old man believed one thing was wrong, no matter how he tried to explain it, it would never work.
He used to bully Victor when they had been young, and when Victor had tried to fight back, he would cry and look for Phillip. Phillip had always believed in whatever Vincent had said and never given Victor a chance to explain.
It was also because of this that Victor hated Phillip more and more.
Now, their relationship was completely broken. Victor had not returned home for a long time.
Phillip saw that Vincent still didn't speak, and he felt as if his blood pressure was rising with anger.
"Vincent, who is Victor? He is your brother! How dare you do such a shameless thing to his company. Because I owed you and your sister, I've given Victor's and Graciella's shares to you. In these years, I have always felt guilty. When you spend the dividend of his shares on beer and skittles, haven't you ever thought about where this money came from?" Phillip was angry. Thinking of his daughter's harsh words, he felt a heart-wrenching pain.
It was almost one month. Graciella had given him a month to return the shares.
At the thought of his daughter's sharp tone, he knew how much her daughter hated him.
When Vincent heard this, he looked up at his father unbelievably. Phillip hadn't mentioned this for more than a decade.
Back then, in order to snatch Victor's and his sister's shares, his mother had spent a few months persuading his father to change his mind.
Victor and his sister had once owned half of the company's shares. When Jaida had left, she had left all her shares to her son and daughter.
When his mother had entered the Alwynn family, she certainly would not allow Victor and Graciella to get the shares.
In order to drive Graciella out of the Alwynn family, his mother had deliberately let Graciella hear about this matter. Graciella had been so angry that she had gone abroad to study.
As for Victor, after high school, he had barely gone back home. There were only four of them at home, and Vincent felt quite happy.
And his father had never mentioned it either.
Seeing Vincent staring at him without saying a word, Phillip was even angrier. "What are you looking at? Do you know what the hell I had done for you three? I ignored Victor when he was so young and sent Graciella abroad. I've given everything of them to you and your sister. But even so, they are living better than you."
"You're such a disappointment. Look at the current situation. Are you worthy of my efforts of educating you?" Phillip was so angry that he slumped to the sofa.
He had a blackout. Seeing this, Jaxon quickly handed him a glass of tepid water.
