With that, the entire room fell silent.
Amos and Heather were stunned.
The two of them looked at lan at the same time.
“lan, what do you mean?”
Joel looked at lan in confusion.
lan lowered his eyes and said slowly, “Back then, when I handed the position of the family head to Joel, I hesitated to formally adopt Joel under my own name.Now that I think about it, it would have been better to adopt him.This way, at the very least, it would’ve shut your stupid mouths.Not just anyone can mock my successor!”
His domineering attitude stunned Amos and Heather.
In the past, when lan raised Joel by his side, the two of them were worried that lan would not accept Joel.
They had asked for adoption before, but lan said that he was just a nephew.
They were all members of The Smith family.
Whether they went through with the adoption or not was only a formality.
However, the two of them did not expect lan to change his tune now.
Joel was also stunned as he looked at lan in a daze.
lan stared at him.
“Joel, would you like to be my son?”
Joel’s eyes turned red.
After so many years, he had gained a lot of knowledge from lan and learned how to manage the company.It could be said that he was personally taught by lan.
When he was young, everyone told him that lan was only teasing him by bringing him along.
Otherwise, why wouldn’t he go through with the adoption? He had also asked Ian this question.
However, lan said, “Because I don’t need a son.I raised you only because the Smiths lack a successor.”
