hapter 250

In the study, both Elspeth and Glynnis were present.

Frederic would naturally not let Hamilton over. In his eyes, Hamilton was on Thaddeus’s side.

At this point, the father and son were almost entirely at odds.

It seemed that ever since Cynthia, Thaddeus’s biological mother, committed suicide, they were left with a relationship in name only.

The chasm between them, now aggravated by Evadne, was exactly what Elspeth wanted to see.

Only when they were at loggerheads, each on their own side, could she take advantage of the chaos and profit from the Abernathy Group!

Even if Frederic was the father of this illegitimate child, what did it matter?

“I called you over to inform you of something.”

Frederic, with a cold face, sat on the sofa and casually threw a freshly printed appointment letter in front of Thaddeus, “I have decided to officially hire Cedric as the legal advisor of the Abernathy Group, also as the head of the legal department. This appointment will be issued first thing tomorrow morning. I have already signed it, there’s no need for your signature as the CEO.

Elspeth and Glynnis stealthily revealed a triumphant smile.

“I don’t agree,” Thaddeus spoke without hesitation, his expression cold.

“I don’t need your agreement. Cedric is a rare talent. Don’t you know how important it is for a corporation to recruit an excellent lawyer?”

“Did you clearly hear the conversation between Evadne and Cedric tonight?”

Thaddeus’s eyes were dark, he sneered, “He’s an ungrateful, profit–driven, and unscrupulous lawyer, but you have him over here. Do you want to sink to his level?” “You! You insolent son!”

Frederic abruptly stood up, his vision going dark due to the sudden movement. Fortunately, Elspeth was there to support him jh time.

“Frederic, don’t be angry, it’s bad for your health!” She gently stroked her husband’s back, laughing inside.

“The Ashbourne family has done a great favor to the Dempsey family. They were taken care of by Chairman Emeric, even his younger brother Jason is working at the K Group. Despite this, he still has a rebellious heart, betraying his benefactors for his own selfish desires. Do you think you can control such a person? If someone offers more attractive conditions in the future, do you think he will stay obediently in the Abernathy Group, to be used by you?” Thaddeus hit the nail on the head, not giving him any face.

“Thaddeus! All your words are just excuses to protect that devil girl, Evadne!”

With no outsiders present, Frederic finally lost his composure, his eyes reddening with anger as he roared, “You’re protecting her. Could it be that you’ve fallen for that wretched girl?”

“So what if I have?” Thaddeus’s lips parted lightly, calmly uttering these few words.
