Chapter 38 There was no way that the Gonzalez family cared about Casper. Brook leaned on a cane, frowning. Brook had four kids, three daughters and one son. His only son, Liam Gonzalez, was his youngest child and Marcus's father. Many years ago, Liam and his wife died in a foreign country. Marcus only had Casper with him. He was in power now, but his ambitious aunt had been wanting to seize power. Even his grandfather, Brook, was secretly planning to take back control of the Gonzalez Group. Brook asked solemnly, "How is Casper now?" "Same as before." "Didn't the experts help?" "No." "No? Casper is my only grandson. He must be healthy." Clara muttered. "Yeah! We must do something. Casper is the only boy in his generation and, technically, the legitimate heir of the family. "But if he can't get better, how can he inherit the Gonzalez Group? Are we going to let a sickly child run the company? Besides, he may die..." Clara hadn't finished speaking when Marcus gave her a cold look and shut her up. Brook also gave her a glare. Clara opened her mouth, but she didn't dare to say anything more. Marcus impatiently looked at Brook. "You don't need to worry about Casper. My patience is running out. Get to the point." Brook furrowed his brows again, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke. "I heard that someone stole several businesses from the company the day before yesterday, causing a loss of billions of dollars. What was that?" Marcus replied coldly, "Business competition." "Over the years, you're always the winner. How come someone successfully stole your business?" "I'm not omnipotent. In business, losses are inevitable." Brook was suspicious. "Do you know that person? Is he a local in Los Angeles?" Marcus knew what he was up to, looking at him with deep eyes. 1327 5.4% < Chapter 38 "Grandpa, you're old. Don't worry about the company. I've got everything in control." Brook furrowed his brows. Clara was angry again. Menu "Marcus, even though you are in charge of the company now, don't forget the Gonzalez Group was founded by your grandfather. He has the authority to intervene in company operations." Marcus looked over. "You must have forgotten that the company founded by Grandpa was gone, and the current Gonzalez Group was built and expanded by me." Six years ago, the Gonzalez Group was in deep trouble. Marcus was brought back from overseas and dealt with the crisis. He single-handedly saved the company. The company founded by Brook was a listed company, but it had long been in decline. However, the Gonzalez Group, established by Marcus, was thriving and truly successful. "Still, your grandfather is the founder of the Gonzalez Group." "So?" "So, he holds greater authority. If your grandfather is no longer around, you'll inherit the company. But since he is still alive..." "So, you want me to step down and hand over the Gonzalez Group, right? You want to kick me out directly, and then you guys can have the company, right?" Clara was speechless instantly. Marcus's expression turned cold."You wish." Brook's eyes showed a hint of displeasure, and he said slowly. "Don't listen to Clara's nonsense. I am indeed too old to run the company, and I don't want to worry about it. You are my only grandson, so you should be in charge. "But the company suddenly lost so much money. You have to explain it, not only to our family, but also to those shareholders." Marcus said flatly, "I've already explained it." "What did you say?" "Business competition." Everyone was speechless. After leaving the hospital, Clara started complaining again. "We shouldn't have brought him back from overseas back then. We should have let him die out there! His mother was no good, and of course, he is no good. "Yes, he is your only grandson. But he doesn't care about the family at all. So, what do we need him for? "Casper is the only boy in his generation, but he is sick! How can he inherit the family business? 1327 < Chapter 38 "To be honest, will he even make it to 18? What if he dies from illness? Menu "Our family always only has one boy in each generation. Marcus won't have any other sons. Bloodline inheritance is important. But we should consider the actual situation. When Casper dies, what will happen to the family?" < Chapter 39
