Chapter 170
“Come on, why are you getting jealous of your cousin and his wife? Look at you, you’re a grown-up, but you're still acting like a child.”
“Grandfather, don’t undermine me in front of so many people!”
After the birthday banquet, it was already dusk.
The setting sun cast a fiery red glow across the horizon.
Delbert was ready to take Harriet to have a tour around the Carlson family’s old mansion.
Last time they were in a hurry to leave after the family banquet, and he hadn't properly shown Harriet around. But just as they were about to leave, they were stopped by Mr.
Carlson Sr.
“Harriet, come to my study. | have something to tell you.”
“Delbert, | need to see grandfather,” Harriet said with a smile, looking
at Delbert.
After giving a nod, Delbert watched as Harriet walked away.
Seeing that scene, Kenny, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help
but sneer.
“Kenny, if you’re free, why don’t we take a walk together?”
Delbert called out as Kenny was about to go upstairs to rest.
Kenny was slightly surprised and turned around with a smile, “Why not! It’s rare to see you in such a good mood.” The two once again arrived under the tree from their last visit. The weather in late October was slightly chilly in the evening.
Now that they were alone, Kenny no longer felt the need to hold back. “Delbert, do you remember what happened at the last family banquet? After you left, Grandfather was furious and scolded me. He said if | ever dared to deliberately oppose you again, he would kick me out of the Carlson family!
“But who else in the Carlson family is capable of taking on such
responsibility? | don’t know what kind of tricks you used to persuade Grandfather to hand over the Carlson Group to you, but I'll never give up!” Kenny vented his dissatisfaction with Delbert without reservation.
The Carlson Group belonged to him.
From childhood to adulthood, he had been working towards this goal under his father’s guidance. Therefore, he would never stand by and watch Delbert take away what
he desired.
Upon hearing his words, Delbert remained calm on the surface.
He simply gazed at the balcony on the second floor.
“Oh lly? Then you'd better be careful. The higher you climb, theContent is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
u'll fall!”
s words were casual and indifferent.
what do you mean?”
Delbert’s reply clearly infuriated Kenny.
He immediately walked over and grabbed Delbert’s collar with both hands.
Was Delbert looking down on him, thinking that he would lose to him? Delbert showed no fear of his anger and directly grabbed his wrist.
The next second, Kenny felt a sudden, intense pain in his hand, as if it were about to break.
He looked up in shock at his cousin, Delbert.
In the twilight’s afterglow, his beautiful eyes were as cold as ice.
He held Kenny’s wrist tightly, his eyes icy as he spoke to Kenny.
“Kenny, if | tell grandfather about your father’s dealings with the foreign mafia to assassinate me at my succession ceremony, do you think you all can continue to survive in the Carlson family?
“By then, not only will you lose the Carlson Group, but you all will be removed by grandfather. Oh, it’s also possible that grandfather already knows about this, which is why he treats you and your father so poorly right now!”
After saying that, he forcefully released Kenny’s hand. Kenny's wrist was already in severe pain, and he had broken out in a slight sweat on his forehead. Suddenly hearing Delbert’s words was like a bolt from the blue!
