Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 441 The Heir to the Joneson Family

Seeing the playful look on her face, Michael was slightly taken aback. "Are you still going to be with that brat after all that happened? I seem to recall something—Isn't he going to marry that young lady from the McGrath Family in two days…"

"You're right. They are going to get married in two days, but who could guarantee that the wedding will go smoothly?"

Michael's lips trembled due to anger. "I'm warning you. Don't try to provoke the Winthrops again."

Elspeth raised her head and glanced at him. Being under her icy cold gaze, Michael was shocked.

"I'm not trying to provoke them. I'm going… to seek accountability."

Finally, she was able to tell Michael the truth.

Seek accountability?

Michael never expected that she still wanted to seek responsibility. However, why would she do that?

"What do you think is the direct cause of my mother's death?"

As soon as Elspeth reminded him of those words, Michael understood everything in an instant.

Arthur Winthrop!

He directed that Helena be handed over to Arthur so that she could be treated.

Not only did she not recover, but she even lost her life just like that.

Wasn't it all Arthur's fault?

Michael trembled all of a sudden. The grief he had felt for the past few days had clouded his brain to the point that he couldn't even connect the dots.

Now that he found out the reason, he was eager to smash Arthur, that b*stard, into pieces!

"I'll support you on this matter."

Shutting his eyes, Michael hid the resentment that piled within him.

"I don't need your support. All I need is for you to not cause trouble for me."

"No way. You're doing this for the sake of your mother. I must help you." While saying that, Michael took out a stack of documents under his pillow and passed them to Elspeth.

"These are the agreements that I've signed beforehand. They include 51% of shares owned by our family, and the remaining 49% distributed among Frank and Kenneth. Besides that, there are also some small shares in the hands of a few members of the board of directors. From today onward, I will transfer all the shares I own to you. You will become the largest shareholder of Joneson Corporation, and no one will dare provoke you anymore. You are free to do whatever you want to."

Elspeth merely expected that he wouldn't get involved in her upcoming plans, but she didn't imagine that he would actually offer her the largest share of the company! Wasn't it equivalent to announcing her as the heir to the family business?

"Have you long prepared to do this?"

Elspeth was no longer surprised but in utter shock.

After all, everyone knew that Michael didn't adore her.

Transferring all of his wealth to someone he disliked wasn't something that the seasoned head of a corporate giant would do.

"Yeah, I've had it ready since you returned with your mother's body." Michael shut his eyes tightly, letting a teardrop slip down the corner of his eyes. "I've always known that you were a good girl, Elspeth."

His words caught Elspeth by surprise.

Complicated emotions surged in her chest. Seeing the worn-out look on his face, Elspeth felt her soft spot triggered.

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Hearing that, Michael flung his eyes open immediately. "What did you just call me?"

"Grandpa."

Michael suddenly broke into a smile. That was the first time she saw him sincerely happy because of her.

"As expected of my own granddaughter. I can see that you've inherited my demeanor. You're way better than Frank, that incompetent brat."

With a beam, he reached his hand out to her, so Elspeth followed suit and reached out to place her hand in his.

"You might have to guide him in the future. Frank, that brat, is very playful, just like his brother. He doesn't understand a lot of business principles. Though he is older than you, you are more mature than him. You must discipline him so that he doesn't act impetuously."

His reminder sounded a little strange.

"Why don't you guide him personally?"

At the mention of that, Michael huffed in anger.

"I tell him off every single day until he's tired of me, but I realized later on that he listens to you and cares about your feelings." Michael sighed. "I, on the other hand, should take good care of myself and retire soon."

The soft spot that was triggered deep down in her heart suddenly hardened again. Is he trying to shove his responsibilities on me and retire as soon as he can?

Despite that, she was still grateful that he offered to give her such strong support.

Joneson Corporation was one of the three giant corporations in Blaydal. Their power and authority were immeasurable.

Elspeth chatted a little longer with Michael before she noticed how weary he was. She then bid him goodbye and left.

After heading out of the room, she was surprised to see that Frank didn't go too far. Instead, he stood under a bridge, waiting for her.
