Chapter 81: The Farrell Family in Uproar Again

As Logan's voice fell, the private room became as silent as the grave. Not only were the Reed family shocked, but even the members of the Farrell family were stunned. The first to snap out of it was Jared's uncle, Arthur, who stood up abruptly, his face cold with accusation, "Dad! What are you doing? Such a significant matter as choosing a successor, and you made the decision without consulting us?"

Logan glanced at him and said indifferently, "Consult about what? The Farrell family was built by my own efforts. I decide who will be the successor, and I don't need to consult anyone!" The Farrell family wasn't an age-old lineage; he had started it from scratch, and only he knew the hardships of elevating the Farrell family to the status of the capital's foremost family.

However, ten years ago, the Farrell family had already declined. He had grown old, unable to keep up with the times, and without innovation, which meant that the Farrell family would soon be overtaken by other clans. At his age, he had long since stopped caring about fame and wealth, but he had to keep these things in his grasp. Money was a good thing; it could keep the Farrell family safe and sound.

The people of the Farrell family only saw the present prosperity but failed to see that the family was on a downward path. And when the Farrell family was on the verge of collapse, it was Jared who had revived the company. Everyone knew Jared as a cripple, a good-for-nothing, but they did not realize that he was a genius! Logan had decided long ago that Jared would be his successor. Jared had to feign disability for some reason, to avoid drawing attention to himself. Now, with Jared openly declaring that his legs were 'healed,' it meant that the things he had been planning in secret could now proceed normally. So, it was time to hand over the Farrell family to Jared.

"Dad, that's not right!" Another one of Jared's uncles, Alexander, stood up, his face unhappy, "It's true that you built the Farrell family, but over the years, us brothers have all worked hard for the company. Even if you want to choose a successor, it shouldn't be Jared. There are still sons of our generation, and you're letting a grandson take over. What kind of sense does that make?"

The rest of the Farrell family echoed, "Exactly, how can a successor be decided so casually? With such a large family, how can we not think it through? Are you joking with the entire family?"

"Jared is unambitious and uneducated, a well-known good-for-nothing. You want him to take over the family business, it's like you want to destroy the family!"
