Chapter 1724

All the board members' sons and daughters who had returned from their studies were dying for Andrew to notice them and call them to work by his side. But now, such a coveted position had fallen into Ryder's hands.

This was unexpected for many people, including Mason himself. He was somewhat puzzled but ultimately expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. Lloyd, for thinking so highly of my son! I'm grateful for your mentorship!"

Andrew waved his hand dismissively, "It's nothing. Well, that concludes today's meeting!"

The meeting ended, and everyone went their separate ways.

Mason walked silently with Ryder, hurrying into the underground parking garage. Only when they were alone did he turn around and slap Ryder across the face.

"You bastard, who told you to leave the military? Not only are you skipping out on your job, but you're even running around without my permission!"

Looking at his father's furious expression, Ryder sneered inwardly but appeared terrified on the surface. "I was only worried about you, Dad, so I took leave without permission. Our family is going through turbulent times right now, and I wanted to help you manage family affairs!"

Mason sneered, "Helping with family affairs is just an excuse. You're really after my position as family head, aren't you?"

Ryder put on a wounded look, his eyes glassy with fake tears. "I didn't think my good intentions would make you so suspicious of me, like I'm some kind of threat. How could I have the qualifications or ability to challenge your position as family head? If you just think about it, you'd realize this makes no sense!"

He added, "Besides, my brothers are still too young to help the family at all. That's why I took it upon myself to come and assist you, Dad!"
