Jeff smiled, watching Paula's sad eyes while silently seething with rage. "Damn it, Paula! Don't screwover

after all this!

| better walk away with at least eight or nine billion!"

He already had Frank's company and assets in his grasp.

Gale's holdings were also under his control now.

Eric and Dylan had nothing but shares. What a useless idiots.

The Barnes family had so much wealth! Selling just one building would fetch not just two hundred million dollars

but billions.

"Paula, you're... not staying hagain tonight?" Jeff suddenly realized she hadn't slept at hin ages.

Paula shook her head. "I need to work overtat the company. We have to fill this two hundred million dollar

hole quickly. If we don't, our cash flow will dry up completely.

The economy's in a slump, and our buildings aren't in prlocations. I've listed them for sale, but who knows if

can't live without spending money! How about this? Just givetwo hundred thousand dollars a month for

allowance." Jeff was furious. He grabbed a throw pillow from the couch and hurled it at Eric.

"You worthless piece of trash!" he roared at Eric. "You're a grown man still living off daddy's money. Can't you go

out and earn your living? Do you have any idea how useless you and your brothers are?

"Look at Alexander and Cecil. They're from prominent families, too, but they run their own companies, making

billions a year. Then look at you four brothers... each one more useless than the

last.

"Gale destroyed himself with racing, Frank's gone off the grid, and now you're getting into racing too. Even your

youngest brother's out there somewhere, claiming he's 'chasing his dreams. Who knows what your lot is really

up to? "And you have the nerve to askfor two hundred thousand dollars a month? I'm getting old! Where's

my two hundred

Jeff finished his rant and headed for the stairs.

Eric stood there dumbfounded. So, in his father's eyes, he was just another failure.

"But Dad, Mom always kept us on a tight leash. You're the one who gave us free rein, telling us to chase our

dreams. We've been doing exactly that. So why are you calling us worthless now?" Eric couldn't understand why

Jeff was tearing into him like this. First, Diana had called him worthless tonight, and now his father. The hits just

kept coming.

Suddenly, Jeff spotted an older man in a long black funeral robe hovering at the stairwell, staring at him intently.

Jeff took a closer look. "Isn't that Grandpa?" His jaw dropped.

"Grandpa passed away long ago... how could he be standing at the stairs watching me?"

"Ah... ah..." Jeff jumped in terror.

His reaction startled both Tracey and Eric.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"Jeff, what's the matter?"

They spoke in unison.

Jeff pointed at the stairwell, trembling as he spoke. "Mom, I... maybe Grandpa needs money in the afterlife.

Quick, go to church and tell him stop coming for me. He's scaring me

Tracey was shocked by the terror on Jeff's face.

"Could he really have dementia?" she thought.

"Oh, you silly boy! Even I'm not senile yet, so how could you have dementia?

"There's nothing there at all. How could your grandfather be

here?"

Tracey smacked Jeff on the head, trying to snap him out of it.

But Jeff kept backing away, his eyes filled with terror. "Grandpa, don't cany closer! Stop wearing that creepy

long robe. If you want to visit me, at least put on something less frightening. You're scaring me!" He continued

retreating in panic.

Tracey was stunned!

Eric froze. "What happened to Dad?"

"Grandma, what's wrong with Dad? Why is he acting so

unstable?"

Eric stared at his father in horror.

Tracey spoke with heartbreak. "Eric, the doctors say your father has dementia. With his high blood pressure,

cholesterol, and
