Honorable Hubby Behind Me

Chapter 4

Inside the presidential suite of The Peninsula Hotel.

A woman with exquisite makeup sat opposite Samuel. Gold and silver adorned her, while her gestures were all very feminine.-

"Samuel, I'm very happy that you're willing to come and see me." The woman's name was Gina Grant and she was Samuel's mother. Facing his biological mother whom he had not seen in three years, Samuel's heart had no fluctuations; he did not even look at her.

"Who would've thought that I, the Hannigan family's neglected youngest son, would one day be put to good use? I didn't expect it and neither did you." Samuel curled his mouth into a faint smile.

"Samuel, I know that what happened three years ago was very unfair to you, but your grandma is the one who decided it. My hands were tied," Gina said emotionally.

Samuel shook his head and said, "Three years? I see. So in your eyes, the unfairness only started three years ago?

"Thirteen years ago, when he was twelve years old, his name was only one on the birthday cake. You were all happy for him, but you forgot that I was only five minutes younger than him. It was from then that the injustice began looming over my head. For thirteen years, he won over all of you with his mouth. And me? No matter how hard I tried, no matter how good my school grades were, none of you have ever taken notice of me.

"Would you have come to see me if he wasn't in jail?

"If it wasn't for the Hannigan family becoming heirless, would you realize that there's one extra person named Samuel in this world?

"She isn't worthy of being my grandmother, and you're not worthy of being my mother."

Gina hid her face and wept when she heard those irrefutable statements.

"The Hannigan family owes me too much. I want to get back at them one by one.

"She said that she no longer wants to be looked down upon, and she doesn't want to be a joke in everyone's eyes."

Gina took a deep breath, calmed her emotions, then said, "A new company will be set up in Cloud City. You'll be solely responsible for it.

"Hehe, is she testing me with this? She still has doubts over my ability even when the Hannigan family is unable to make ends meet?" Samuel had a luminous gaze as he looked at Gina. Regarding the new company, the nicer way to put it was to say that Samuel was allowed to be the boss, but Samuel knew that it was merely a test set by his grandmother. His chance to become the Hannigan family's heir could only come if he did a good job in managing that company in Cloud City.

Gina nodded and said nothing.

"Alright then. I'll show her who's qualified to become the Hannigan family's heir and let her know the consequences of underestimating me. But whatever I'm doing isn't for the Hannigan family. It's for her." When Samuel left the hotel room, Gina took out her phone.

"Mom, he agreed." 1
