Alex looked at Cheryl. The woman winked at him.
Fine. The beautiful doctor loved him deeply. They had even kissed and hugged. If he were to deny it at this time, it would hurt her feelings. Moreover, it would also embarrass her very much. How could he possibly do such a thing?
After about of chatter, Alex learned that Hubert’s family was in dire straits.
“My Gordon family in Missouri was also a top notch great family before. But, a major event happened some time ago and caused my Gordon family’s business to meet its Waterloo. If we can’t survive this crisis, our Gordon family might have to face the danger of bankruptcy. Therefore, my grandpa has made an announcement. Whoever in the third generation of the Gordon family can help the family to earn a billion dollars first will be the next patriarch of the family.”
“And my father ranks the youngest in the family and is the least pleasing to my grandpa’s eyes. He is also at odds with a few of his brothers. Once he fails this competition, my family will end up in an even more difficult situation. We might be kicked out of the family without any rights of inheritance.”
Upon hearing that, Alex sighed silently.
It was another drama of struggling for power in an aristocratic family.

In reality, he had already experienced it twice in the Assex family and the Rockefeller family.
Cheryl said, “What major event happened in Missouri that could make your family so miserable?”
Hubert said, “I wonder if you guys have heard of the eight great royal families of America before?”
“Uh..?” Alex was slightly startled.
At this moment, Thea could not help saying, “He’s just a down and out young master who lives in such a small place like California. How could he possibly know about the eight great royal families? You have overestimated him.”
Alex sneered and thought, ‘You woman, do you even know anything? If you were to know that the Stoermers revere me and the Colemans would die for me, you might wet your pants out of fear.’
However, he did not plan to show off his capability.
Hubert said, “The eight great royal families of America are the eight supreme families passed down from ancient times of the Golden Era. In our Missouri, there’s the Coleman family of Missouri. It’s one of the royal families. But, the Colemans of Missouri had a major incident some time ago, and they were almost annihilated! Now, most of the properties have fallen into the hands of the Stoermers of Michigan. And, my Gordon family has ties of kinship with the Coleman family. Many of our businesses rely upon the help of the Coleman family. Now the Coleman family is powerless to fend for themselves, our Gordon family suffers a great catastrophe.”
Alex touched his nose.
To his surprise, the Gordon family and the Coleman family were related.
The current predicament of the Gordon family was tantamount to an indirect cause by himself.
