Chapter 23
James knew that Thea cared about her family’s opinion the most.
Over the past ten years, she had been looked down upon.She desperately
wished for her family’s acknowledgment and approval.
“Thea, do you want to go back?” Thea nodded lightly.
“Yes…”
James looked at Howard and his family, still standing at the entrance.
Mildly, he said, “Thea will return under one condition.Kneel and beg her to.”

“James…”
Tommy got angry at once, a vein pulsing on his face.
“You have no authority in the family.Thea didn’t even say anything.Who are you
to make these demands?”
James said, “If you won’t kneel, have Lex come personally.Otherwise, she won’t
be returning.”
Thea pulled on James’ sleeve gently, telling him to stop talking.They were a
family after all, and she did not want things to be awkward.

“Thea, you’re too soft hearted.Since they’re at your mercy, they’d grant all your
requests.”
“R-really?”
“Of course! Think about it.With Celestial terminating the partnership, it’s their
loss.They need you.Just tell them what you want.”
Thea had an idea.Her thoughts had been muddled for the past few days, but
what James said reminded her of something.
All these years, the entire family had looked down upon her dad.He had no
standing in the family at all.
Even though he was the manager, he owned no shares.Her parents had argued
countless times over this matter.She thought about it and said, “I’ll come home if
grandfather transfers ten percent of Eternality’s shares to my dad.If he
disagrees, I guess I won’t be going home.Also, he has to kneel.”
Thea pointed at Tommy.

Tommy had mocked her

endlessly.Even during family banquets, he was always reproaching her dad.
“What?” Tommy widened his eyes.
Smack.
Howard smacked Tommy on the head.He roared, “Kneel and apologize to
Thea.”
“Dad, are you crazy? You want me to kneel before her?”
Tommy shouted.Howard slapped him.
At the same time, he gave Tommy a look.Under his breath, he said, “Kneel.Do
you want Benjamin to get the shares?”
Tommy finally understood.He threw himself onto the ground, putting on a
miserable face.
