Chapter 216 Disown Him

His eyes revealed a touch of madness, what he was thinking at that moment, perhaps only he himself

knew

He was already driven to his wit’s end. Ever since he returned from his overseas trip, his phone had been ringing incessantly. Prior to his departure to Corleon, he had made a promise that he would bring back a significant amount of funds to fill the void. But now, he had nothing to show for it, and naturally, people were not pleased.

From the outset, he had incurred massive losses due to reckless land purchases and spending habits. Then, the Fairchild family intervened, leading to repeated defeats. The chronic shortage of funds had forced him into the precarious partnership with Uriah. Now, he was left vulnerable, with incriminating evidence held by others, constantly suppressed by the Fairchilds.

One could argue that he was already ruined. Unless Harvey dipped into his own pockets to cover the shortfall, which was no small sum. Knowing Harvey’s disposition, he was more likely to cut his losses, abandon the disgraced individual, and choose a new successor to start afresh.

Sure enough, Harvey’s call came through.

“Dad?”

“Don’t call me Dad!” Harvey snapped, his tone dripping with disdain. “You promised you’d make money after heading to Corleon. But instead, you returned empty–handed and started avoiding me! And now you’re planning to throw a party? It seems your mind isn’t as sharp as it used to be. The Wolford family doesn’t need an heir who isn’t clear–headed. So, don’t call me ‘father‘ anymore. If you have nowhere else to go, you can still work as a manager in the company. I’ve already been more than fair to you, so don’t accuse me of being heartless.”

Sterling was taken aback for a moment, then scoffed. He sure knows how to sweet–talk his way through. He wants to kick me aside, yet still finds me useful. He’s keeping me around for further exploitation, squeezing me dry, and even using me to pave the way for Quincy.

His expression grew terribly gloomy, and his fingers gripping the phone had started to turn pale.
