Chapter 51

Huxley had been bottling up frustration all day and had nowhere to vent. He asked Winona for Jason's phone number and asked to meet at Lesoville Private Winery after work. This private winery was Jaxon's property, named after his and Mikayla's last name, symbolizing his love for Mikayla.

Jaxon pulled out a bottle of red wine he had been saving and sat opposite Huxley. "What's wrong! You look pretty down"

Huxley hesitated, debating whether to open up to Jaxon. He thought about the people around him but couldn't think of anyone else to talk to. Jaxon Huxley slowly opened up, recounting everything that happened at the company.

Jaxon swirled his wine and listened. He didn't think highly of the hotheaded Huxley, but Hugo had told him to keep Huxley close for future benefits. In the business world, there were no eternal friends or enemies.

"That is indeed too much. Salvatore Group will be yours someday, but Jorge is making you start as a low-level employee," Jaxon commented. Hearing this, Huxley angrily gulped down his wine like it was water. Jaxon, what position did you start with when you joined your company?" asked.

Jaxon was slightly annoyed seeing Huxley empty his glass. He wouldn't have offered his good wine so freely if he'd known.

"I started as a manager" jaxon had studied financial management in school and had Hugo's support when he returned. Although Hugo was ambitious, he only had one son who pursued business. Brantley was no threat to him in this regard.

"No wonder. It's all because I'm not Uncle Jorge's child," Huxley said.

Jaxon poured another generous glass of wine for Huxley. "Is Jorge planning to let Mikayla inherit the company?"

Huxley dismissed the idea outright. "No way! In our family, the eldest son and males are always prioritized."

"But didn't Jorge take the inheritance from your father?" Jaxon asked again.
