Chapter 976

The family servants are doing a sloppy job. It seems like I'm the one responsible to discipline them as their new young master!

Gale walked into the living room but there was nobody in there. It looked rather deserted instead of a well-decorated venue for an engagement party.

"Where did all the servants go?" he roared. "You people have no respect for me!"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming from upstairs.

Gale raised his head and looked in the direction where the footsteps echoed. To his surprise, Paul was standing on the staircase on his right side.

For a moment, he was taken aback by the other man's presence. He gaped at the man for a while, looking as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Is Paul's ghost coming back to haunt me?

The change of expression on Gale's face irritated Paul. Gritting his teeth, Paul began, "Gale, you're an important man now, aren’t you? I bet things are going fine for you, eh?"

Gale's expression changed when he heard the man speak. At that moment, he realized the man standing at the top of the staircase was indeed alive. "You're not dead yet?"

"All thanks to you, Gale. You only stabbed me once that time. If you stabbed me twice and or even three times, I doubt I would have survived." Paul was sarcastic.

However, his words didn't affect Gale. "So, why are you back now? You want the company back, huh? Sure, I'll gladly return it. After all, there's nothing left. You can have it all back."

He didn't give Paul any chance to answer because he couldn't help but show off his wits.

"To be honest, the Heidelberg Family is unfortunate to have you as their heir. The family fortune only lasted a few generations until you. I feel bad to see it go. It's unnecessary to hold a grudge against me, though. It's only fair for me to take back my hard-earned money after I worked for your family all these years. It's a win-win situation."
