Chapter 489:

Bryan added, “By the way, here’s another piece of news. When I married Eileen, several properties and vehicles under my name were transferred to her—gifts with no strings attached.”

That was another bombshell.

“You’ve given her all your properties?”

“Are you serious?”

“Shame on you!”

The elders’ faces turned red with anger.

But Bryan remained completely composed, as if the matter were a golden opportunity.

One elder could no longer contain himself, clutching his chest and gasping for breath. What Bryan had done was truly a disgrace!

“If you all find this so shameful, then let’s talk about me, as the eldest son, inheriting the family fortune today.” Bryan turned the tables, thwarting Brandon’s attempt to take control of EB Group and setting his sights on Apex Group.

Even scrap iron had value, let alone Apex Group with its solid foundation. Bryan knew this well. Even if things went south, he could sell his shares and give the profits he had earned to Eileen.

Bryan continued, “If you agree, I’ll return to Apex Group and guarantee its revival within three years. The family dividends will be paid in full, and—”

Brandon couldn’t take it anymore. He interrupted, “Stop talking nonsense! You did all of this and still think you can demand Apex Group? Stop embarrassing us!”

Brandon then turned to the elders and said, “Bryan has tarnished our family’s reputation, so Apex Group must not be given to him. And there’s definitely money from him in EB Group, just not publicly visible. We must make him return it all. It belongs to us!”

“It doesn’t matter if he feels ashamed; we shouldn’t let his actions tarnish the entire Dawson family’s reputation. I say we sever ties with him and expel him!” Brandon declared with conviction.

gⱯlnσν𝓮ℓs﹒𝚌o𝗺 is where stories live Bryan met Brandon’s gaze with cool detachment. “After you disown me, your eldest son, do you plan to have another son to take my place?” he asked, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

The sting of his words left Brandon sputtering, like a cat suddenly stepped on its tail. The elders, unaware of Brandon’s undisclosed illness, mistakenly thought Bryan was ridiculing Brandon’s age and his ability to father another child.

“That was uncalled for, Bryan,” Lydia chimed in. “Even if you’re not here, Travis will be. He just finished college and is more than capable of taking on responsibilities. He was educated abroad from a young age and could greatly benefit the Dawson legacy.”

“Yes, and Travis is already recognized as a member of our family. If you’re out, he’s my only heir and will inherit the Dawson family’s wealth,” Brandon said, fixing his eyes on Bryan.
