Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 1048: And what exactly is that?

William's smug expression dominated his face as he nodded at Jonathan as if offering a gesture of "you're welcome." Initially, William had trusted Jonathan because he believed the latter was capable. However, Jonathan's failure at the family gathering showed that he still had a long way to go.

Taking that as a rookie mistake, William made it his mission to show how it was done.

Jonathan smiled subtly at William and slowly sat down. "Thank you, Uncle," he said quietly. "I'll surely repay this in the future."

"You better."

Dean laughed in ridicule, receiving the same message as everyone else. Snapping his eyes up at the meeting room, he didn't have to wonder because the expressions on everyone's faces said it all. His gaze then shifted to William's seat and then to Jonathan, who was still standing beside William's chair.

"He really is dedicated, huh?" A glint flickered across his eyes, and his expression hardened into one of danger. He watched Jonathan sit down beside William, stretching his neck as he observed the two laughing together.

At the same time, Benjamin also received the message and checked what it was. The moment he saw the article-which was released even before the meeting commenced he rushed to Zoren's seat.

"Sir, you have to see this!" Benjamin quickly showed his phone, displaying the article about the illegitimate child of Enzo Pierson.
