Chapter 253

Cedric always had a bone to pick with his good–for–nothing” younger brother, Jason.

He felt Jason spent his days catering to women, fetching their shoes and massaging their feet, like

some kind of butler. With no ambition, there was nothing remarkable about him! But who would have

thought that Emeric, a prominent figure in Skyrim and a top–tier tycoon, would openly declare Jason as

his godson? It was an Indirect way of showing his support for Jason.

What added insult to injury was Emeric’s lavish praise for Jason in front of everyone.

Was he trying to subtly mock Cedric through Jason?

The Ashbourne siblings wore varying expressions. Evadne’s lips curled into a smirk, barely

suppressing her laughter.

Emeric, true to form, was scheming as ever.

Cedric must not have imagined his evening would turn into a veritable lion’s den.

“Mr. Emeric, you’re too kind to my boy!”

Mr. and Mrs. Dempsey were flabbergasted. Dave felt a mix of shock and happiness, but still tried to

demur.

Jason isn’t worthy to be your godson! It’s inappropriate! Let him just keep working at the company. We

don’t dare to ask for more!” “We’ve known each other for years. I wouldn’t lie to you. If Jason weren’t a

good kid, I wouldn’t have chosen him. You agree, right?” Emeric’s praise for Jason was a slap in

Cedric’s face.

Cedric clenched his fists under the table, his eyes red with anger!

Just as he was about to find an excuse to leave, Emeric casually said, ‘Evadne, let Cassius know

something when you see him.”

“What is it, daddy?” Evadne asked, propping her chin on her hands, her voice soft and sweet.

“The proposal he submitted to me recently, to acquire Pinnacle Ventures, I’ve approved it. He can start

the acquisition plan anytime.” Cedric was shocked.

It was like a bolt from the blue, hitting Cedric right in the head!

Pinnacle Ventures was the biggest shareholder of his law firm!

If Emeric acquired Pinnacle Ventures, wouldn’t that mean he’d have full control over his law firm?,

That was when it dawned on him.

Cedric clenched his teeth, his eyes bloodshot with hatred. The cold sweat on his back seeped through

his suit.

He didn’t dare to look up at Emeric and Evadne, but he knew their gazes were as sharp as knives,

ready to dissect him from head to toe!

Emeric’s invitation for dinner under the guise of catching up was actually a veiled threat.

He wanted to make it clear to Cedric what would happen if he crossed his beloved daughter.

After dinner, the Dempsey family didn’t rush to leave. They chatted in pairs in the living room.

Evadne was catching up with her brothers, while Arnold and Ivan, who were colleagues, were having a

lively conversation. They even started playing a board game, Ticket to Ride.

In the midst of the fun, Evadne accidentally knocked over a glass of red wine.

The crimson liquid stained her dress and trickled down her slender fair legs, even staining her feet.

“I’ll clean it up!” Arnold scrambled for napkins.

“Let me do it!” Aaron also fumbled around for something to wipe it with.

“Well should I?” Ivan thought he should also lend a hand, considering the situation.

Just as the three men were vying to help, a handsome man arrived just in time, kneeling before

Evadne.

It was Jason, who rushed to her side, pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, and gently began to

wipe away the stain on her foot. His sincerity and innocence made it seem like he was merely

performing his duty as a secretary and there was nothing more.

Everyone around them was dumbstruck.

Nydia, who was chatting with her mother, saw the scene and felt a chill run down her spine.

Her clear eyes welled up with tears, her heart shattered. She felt a sharp pain in her chest.

“Mommy, I’m not feeling well. I’ll go up and rest.”

Saying this, Nydia lowered her head, using her long hair to hide her teary eyes, and hastily left the

room.

“Jason, I’m going to wash up.”

After saying this, Evadne turned to leave, leaving Jason standing in the spotlight.
