Amelia let out a sigh. She looked at Monica and gave her a small smile. "My child, why are you so impatient? It doesn't matter whether he's a member of the Hayes family or not. He's just a twenty-something- year-old boy. How long can he run the family? You don't have to worry. Some people are more unwilling than you are to let him take charge of the Hayes family. Some people are more eager to see him in trouble than you are."

Monica was dumbstruck. She then looked at Amelia. After being silent for a moment, she opened her mouth and said, "Mom, do you mean someone will do something?"

Amelia smiled, the very picture of gentleness. "The Hayes family's business is big. It's not only us. Your uncles have been waiting for your father's funeral to take the opportunity to cause some trouble. Don't worry, just take good care of your company. Your brothers will be back soon. Your father did say that they should come back and help Tobias out in managing the company. You're still young and still have a long way to go. Don't wear yourself out unnecessarily. A quarrel only benefits the third party. There's no need for brute force!"

Monica nodded as if she understood Amelia's words. She looked at Amelia and said, "Mother, I'm lucky that you remained calm and reminded me. Otherwise, if I actually made a scene, I'll be the one sticking my neck out."

I looked at the mother and daughter with an uneasy feeling. This was not an uncommon battle among rich and powerful families. Money was a great motivator.
