Chapter 619 A man stepped out of one of the luxury cars, treading on marble steps. He was followed by a few suited bodyguards carrying briefcases, and entered the courtyard.
Walking through the winding corridor, and passing round archways and corner stone statues Through the lavish entrance hall across the cloister, and straight into the living room.
The living room was all glitz and glamour. The wooden tables, chairs, sofas, and countless decorations of various shapes and colors highlighted luxury The elder members of the Laurence family were already seated all over the living room, fervently discussing the purpose of this meeting 1 bet hes pissed that we didnât show up to his proposal ceremony âThat Ms Shultz, is she even worth our time?â
Exactly, a woman who canât even compare to us in status, is not even worthy enough to polish my shoes, why should we go?â
âRight, even if heâs the familyâs head, we donât have to bend over backwards for him Not just the proposal ceremony, we wonât go to the wedding!â
Yeah, we wont go to the wedding either, letâs see what he can do to us...â
Apart from these elders, the younger generation of the Laurence family was also present. Upon hearing these discussions, their faces turned grim.
They all remained silent. Only the youngest, Sigrid, looked quite discontent and scoffed âYou guys think he cares whether you attend or not? If he didnât want to show complete sincerity to Eleanor, you probably wouldnât even have received an invitation. You say you wonât even go to his wedding, have the guts to say it to his face. Letâs see if he would invite youâ
Being accused by the younger generation, made the uncles uncomfortable and they started pointing fingers at Sigridâs parents Look at this, this is the excellent student youâve raised. Doesnât even have basic manners, and you dare call her an excellent student)â
1think either sheâs become stupid from studying abroad, or sheâs been corrupted by Chaseâ
Im sure its Chase who corrupted her, thatâs why she doesnât show respect to her elders.â
âIf she respected her elders, she wouldnât have let Cedric take her to the hospital for an abortion....â
âAbortion? Whose child?â
âWho else, Chases child of course!â
Upon hearing these words, Sigridâs face turned as cold as ice. She was unable to utter a word.
Veronica, heard the conversation becoming increasingly inappropriate, picked up her phone and slammed it on the table She was about to blow up, when a group of people walked in through the door.
The moment Bernard appeared in the living room with his bodyguards, all discussions ceased. The room was so quiet that it was as if there was no one there. The man who walked in from the outside didnât even glance around He walked directly towards the head of the room with a cold expression Blake, leaning on his cane, was sitting at the head. His face turned to an ugly grimace as he saw Bernard enter. But he invited him to sit down.
Bernard gave the old man a cold look. He didnât greet him, and sat down next to him. The man leaned back on the single leather sofa, his long legs spread out lazily under his suit pants. His posture and demeanor were like a kingâs He relaxed casually One hand supported his chin. He lifted his icy eyes, and looked at the relatives sitting below one by one.
What were you just discussing? Say it again, let me hear it.â
Those who had been accusing Sigrid fell silent immediately, not daring to speak. They all lowered their heads, disappearing into the crowd.
âI gave you a chance to refute Since you all choose to stay silent, then listen to me!
The man sitting at the head, slightly tilted his head, revealing a face of clear contours under the dim light.
Those who slandered my wife and blamed my sister, donât have to come to work at the Laurence Group anymore. As for the shares...â
Bernard paused, his cold gaze landing on the third oldest, âKendrick, you handle the cash out.â
Kendrick Laurence, received his older brothers order and nodded immediately. âAlright, It arrange it right awayâ
Kendrick, who was efficient in doing things, quickly left the living room to make arrangements Seeing that Bernard was serious, the Laurence familyâs relatives couldnât sit still anymore, they all objected âWhy should we cash out? We donât want to. We want to stay and have shares in the Laurence Groupâ

Their shares might not be much, but the dividends were not small. With those little shares, they could live for several generations âOn what grounds?â
Bernard scoffed With his scarred hand, he flicked the snowflakes off his sleeve, and slowly began.
âSince the establishment of the Laurence Group, youâve not contributed anything You just rely on the family name, youâve got a quota of shares. You sit quietly and enjoy the benefits, I could turn a blind eye, but what have you done behind my back? Accepting bribes, manipulating the stock market, selling projects, one after another. All are destroying the Laurence Group, why should I keep you?*
