The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 270

Chapter 270 Recalling the Past

"Emily, the servants will take care of buying everything on schedule, so you really didn't have to go through all this trouble. Plus, you've got so much on your plate, and your mom just got out of the hospital. It's really not fair for the Smith family to burden you like this," Mason said, trying to be polite but with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.

Emily replied, "Grandpa, this is what family does. Why are you being so formal with me? Stuff bought by outsiders never feels as homey as what family arranges. Besides, we should all be together for New Year. Aren't uncles and aunts coming back to see you?"

"We can't let them think we, the younger generation, aren't taking good care of you. What if they get mad and take you abroad? Then the Smith Mansion would lose its heart and soul."

Mason had two sons and a daughter. Unlike other big families, his love life was pretty straightforward. All three kids were with his wife, and the eldest son was Michael and Veda's dad.

But everyone had their own way of seeing things.

Mason treated all his kids well, but he had a soft spot for Michael's dad. He stuck to the tradition of passing the company to the eldest son and made Michael's dad the president of Smith Corporation.

Sadly, even though Michael's dad was the eldest, he was also the most rebellious.

He married Scarlett and had a son and a daughter, but their marriage was rocky. The stress got to him, and he fell ill, spending his days between the hospital and home until he eventually passed away.

And what about Michael's uncle and aunt?

Michael's aunt, Faye Smith, loved her freedom and didn't want to get tangled up in the Smith family drama, especially with Scarlett. Growing up in that environment, she felt there was nothing worth fighting over.

Faye knew that no matter how much they bickered in private, they'd still have to put on a show of family unity, which was exhausting.

Michael's uncle, Peter Smith, rarely came home. After the presidency went to Michael's dad, there wasn't much for him to do around here. So Peter moved abroad, running a small business and staying out of the Smith family's affairs.
