âGreatâgrandpa, a classmate pushed me on purpose, and my forehead hit the corner of the table. It hurt so much⦠I bled a lotâ¦â Wilhelm complained.
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, making him look pitiful.
Pedroâs expression darkened as he demanded,What kind of teachers does that kindergarten have? Our family invests so much every year. Are they just sitting around doing nothing?!â
He turned his gaze to Jane and asked, âDid they expel the kid who pushed Wil?â
Seeing Pedro getting to the point, Jane sighed. She feigned a troubled look as if weighing whether to reveal the truth.
âWhat exactly happened? Donât beat around the bush!â Pedro urged.
Jane glanced at the nearby maid and instructed, âTake Wil out to play in the garden.â
The maid nodded and led Wilhelm away from the living room.
Once the living room was left with just Jane and Pedro, she sat opposite him and said, â Grandpa, it might be hard to deal with the kid who pushed Wil.â
à¼à¼
Pedro glared. âHard to deal with? No matter who it is, if my greatâgrandson is hurt, I wonât let it slide!â
âThe kid who had the conflict with Wil is Nylaâs son⦠Heâs also Damonâs biological son,â Jane informed him.
âWhat?!â Pedroâs expression shifted to one of disbelief.
After all, the Wilkies had only moved to Saintornia after Nylaâs accident and were unaware of Damon and Nylaâs past. Even Jane had learned about Damon having a child with Nyla through Rebecca.
â
Jane confirmed with a nod, âIâm telling the truth, and Iâve also sent someone to verify it.â
The living room fell silent. If that child truly was Damonâs, it would complicate matters. They had just offended Damon at the party. Clinging to this issue would undoubtedly anger him further,
Still, Pedro couldnât simply let Wilâs injury go unaddressed!
He looked grim.
Sensing the tension, Jane spoke up. âGrandpa, if this situation escalates, it wonât be good for our family to offend Damon again. But if we let it go, it wonât be fair to Wil, and I wonât stand for that either.â

âSo, what do you plan to do?â Pedro asked, knowing his granddaughter wellâshe must have a plan in mind by coming to him.
âI want to use Wilâs injury as leverage to negotiate with Damon for some tangible benefits for the company,â she replied.
âHave you decided what you want from Damon?â Pedro inquired.
Jane nodded. âYes, thereâs a municipal project thatâs up for bidding soon. If we compete, the Wilkie Group probably wonât stand a chance against Prospectus Technology.â
à¼à¼
A flicker of surprise crossed Pedroâs eyes before he frowned. âProspectus Technology has been preparing for that project for over half a year. Damon wonât easily back down.â Most importantly, once that project was secured, the profit margin would be at least 25%, attracting many eager companies in Saintornia
âI know Damon wonât drop out of the bidding. My plan is to partner with Prospectus Technology. Profit is secondaryâthe main goal is to build a connection,â Jane stated.
Once a connection was established, it would be up to their capabilities to secure future municipal projects.
A hint of approval flashed in Pedroâs eyes. He simply said, âThen, Iâll leave this matter to you.â
Janeâs face lit up with joy as she promised, âIâll handle it well!â
âMm. Make sure to comfort Wil and encourage him to get along with that kid. We will need Damonâs support in many ways moving forward,â Pedro reminded her.
