Chapter 309: News About Annie

On the other side, Liliosa returned to the Emerson family from the Reed family, her anger almost burning her up inside. She was fuming as she opened the door and saw Mack playing games in the living room. She was taken aback, "Mack, why are you back?"

Mack didn't even lift his eyes from his game, "My dad bailed me out."

Liliosa was stunned and then snorted coldly, "At least he has some conscience." She then said to Mack, "Since you're back, pull yourself together. Don't forget there's a bastard child eyeing our family now."

Mack was engrossed in his game and didn't respond. "Mack!" Seeing him playing games at this critical moment, Liliosa was furious. "How can you still have the mood to play games? The entire Emerson family is laughing at us! You need to pull yourself together and show them that you are the rightful heir of the Emerson family!"

"Mom, stop nagging. They are just making trouble for no reason! In the end, the Emerson family's assets will be mine; that's indisputable!" Mack replied impatiently, gripping his game controller.

As the eldest son of the Emerson family and the primary heir, he believed no one could take his place. Even if others had different ideas, it wouldn't change this fact.

Liliosa was livid. If Mack hadn't been so useless and embarrassing, Hawk wouldn't have brought Lysander back home. Now that the bastard was being raised in another house and Hawk was showing him off everywhere, it was clear he was planning for the future.

"Yours?" Liliosa snatched the controller from Mack's hands and threw it on the ground. "If you don't shape up immediately, your dad will give everything to Lysander!"

Hearing that his father might give everything to Lysander finally made Mack look up, but he still seemed skeptical. "Give it to that bastard? How is that possible? He's just some unknown guy who only knows how to play esports. The Emerson family won't agree!"

In the past, the elders of the Emerson family might have had objections, but seeing how incompetent Mack had become, their opinions were changing. They would rather choose Lysander, who was young, smart, and had achieved success in esports.

Liliosa poked him hard with her finger. "Do you want to watch our family's assets being taken away before you wake up?"

"Lysander is not easy to deal with. Who knows if he's plotting something behind our backs? If your dad listens to him and leaves everything to him, it'll be too late for regrets!"

As she spoke, Hawk returned home. Seeing the game on TV made his expression darken.
