North City.

The Bennetts Group, CEO’s Office.

Philip Bennett sat in an armchair, leaning forward with his index fingers interlocked at his nose bridge. The floor was covered with shattered tea sets, the spilled tea leaves emitting a calming aroma.

Upon learning that his own son had invested fifty million in the Lyle Corporation, he was so enraged his blood pressure rose, prompting him to convene the board to discuss dealing with Melody Harmony.

But what he didn’t expect was that the vote didn’t pass, making him realize his 35% share did not constitute great control.

His father did not support his son but rather his grandson!

Yet what baffled him was how this son managed to acquire 20% of the shares right under his nose. Where did he get the funds for acquisition? Could it have come from the old man?

Perhaps Philip Bennett would never have imagined that Melody Harmony Group was only the tip of the iceberg under Norman Bennett’s command.
