Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 240

The atmosphere became a little awkward for Casper, who felt a chill run down his spine as he considered inquiring Winston about his sexual orientation.

Could he be gay?

Casper was in some perturbation before Winston continued, “As the eldest son in the Lanes, I’ve to follow my father around for authentications and appraisals, but cannot for the life of me grasp the gist of it. I could only work hard in other areas, but overall, the results had been underwhelming in spite of my best efforts. And before I knew it, my two younger brothers had both grown and started families of their own while I remained alone.”

Winston’s words roused a bit of sympathy from Casper who was similarly saddled with such expectations from birth to learn and excel in various aspects.

The only thing which set them apart was that one of them came away successful, whereas the other did not.

“I suppose that your father treats you all the same,” Casper said in consolation.

“Deep down, I’m aware that my youngest brother is most favored. He’s the brightest one between us, and also the one person best suited to lead our family into the future.”

Winston stopped his car before a traffic light and suddenly turned to Casper. “I’m older by a few years, but could we just address each other directly?”

Casper nodded in agreement. “Of course we can.”

“Could I make a request of you, Casper?”

“Ask, and I’d be sure to do my utmost.”

“Help me persuade my little brother to come back as our family needs him. I figured that it’ll be much more convenient since you both are active within the same school, and with the trust Alfred has in you, I’d like to ask you for this favor.”

Casper gave that due consideration in view of Winston’s tremendous sincerity. “I’ll do what I can. Mr. Lane’s sentiments are hard to grasp and he won’t be easily persuaded, so I can only try to convey this message tactfully.”

“That’s good enough. Thank you so much! Just let me know should you be in need of anything in future,” a delighted Winston said before he left Casper with a string of numbers which he was welcome to call at any time.
