Chapter 48: Chapter 48

In fact, Redsprings didn't know what really happened. However, Gary's hostile attitude, and the family's sudden video meeting was enough to give him a bad feeling.

"Sir, there are definite signs of an internal power struggle within the family,and the situation seems to be escalating...”

"I don't know the details, but the elders are waiting for you to return and do a video conference. I also got this news just now," Redsprings explained,his worried look becoming more evident.

“Westfield,you really have no manners to return so late. Don't you know the elders are waiting for you?" Gary

scolded Westfield arrogantly.

Ever since Westfield walked in earlier indifferently, Gary had been holding back his anger.

"Who do you think you are? If I have to use my status as a cousin to suppress you, I don't really care. You're nothing in my eyes!” Westfield responded expressionlessly.

Gary didn't expect him to have the audacity to fight back, his face darkening. Afterward, he thought of the upcoming video conference and smirked maliciously before saying,“Fine,enjoy your arrogance for now.

A few minutes later,you'll be crying!"

"Christiant's enough, Sir. Let's start the meeting quickly so the elders don't

have to wait any longer," Redsprings said,not wanting Westfield to fight with Gary anymore. Otherwise, it'd make things difficult, even for Westfield.

Before Gary could retort, Redsprings had already pressed the control button,switching the video to the conference room.

In the center of the video was an old man with a white beard and eyebrows. His thin and wrinkled face was red, his sharp eyes emitting a formidable aura.

This old man was Brian Sanchez, the Jeremy family's current head and Gary s grandfather.

On his left and right were two other elders,both with cold and stern

expressions at the camera.

Seeing these vaguely familiar faces,Westfield couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Ever since he was banished three years ago, he'd never expected to meet them again like this. They never contacted him until now, as if they had completely forgotten about him.

“Mark,respected elders!" Gary immediately bowed and greeted the video with a smile, showing a stark contrast to Westfield's calm and unaffected demeanor

“Westfield,why didn't you greet the elders when you saw them?”Jonathan narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice.

“Don't you already have Gary to be your good grandson? Since you wouldn't really care about me, I won't join in this lively scene,”Westfield replied calmly.

“I initially thought you were just being mischievous and you'd still redeem yourself, but now it seems you're not even willing to fight for your last chance." Jonathan angrily sneered in a low, menacing tone.

“Stop beating around the Jason and get straight to the point. Don't you have something to discuss?" Westfield responded nonchalantly.

“I'm extremely busy right now, and I don't want to waste anyone's time.Therefore,you should stop labeling me as someone who doesn't know

better!" Westfield urged impatiently.

“Westfield,what's with this attitude?

How dare you talk to the elders like

this?“One elder immediately

slammed the table and angrily

questioned.

"Alright, let's get straight to the point.

I'm asking you, will you accept being

the family's heir? This is your last

chance,so think carefully before

answering.

Otherwise,you will lose everything

you have now and be banished

completely from the Jeremys!” Jonathan

waved his hand, signaling the elder

beside him to calm down.

Westfield furrowed his brows. Whenever

things don't go as he expected,there

was probably something suspicious

going on. Was Jonathan so eager to

change his attitude and make him the

heir just because of his business

abilities?
