Chapter 5 Condition

912 Words
There are four wealthy families in JIMLAND, namely Logan, Bowman, Larson and Palmer. The Logan family ranks first in terms of wealth and power. The old master of the Logan family, Victor Logan, has three sons. The eldest son, Jason Logan, Herbert's father, is in charge of the production manufacturing and financial industries of the Logan family's industry. He is stable and decisive in the business field, and is the most authoritative person in the Logan family besides the old master. This made Nick Logan, the second son of the Logan family who could only take over the service industry, dissatisfied. In terms of intelligence and tactics, he is not as smart as his elder brother, and only plays dirty tricks to achieve his goals, so he has always been disliked by the old master. He even hates the fact that he only has a daughter and no son to inherit more of the family fortune. It is a good thing that Herbert, Jason's son, has not inherited his father's intelligence and is also a fool, otherwise there would be no position for him in the family. The third son, Ellis Campbell, was the illegitimate son of Victor Logan who was nearly fifty years old and a woman in her twenties. The woman passed away when Ellis was young, she did not marry into the Logan family, and Ellis was not accepted by the Logan family, only let him to follow his mother's surname. The Palmer family's strength is somewhat inferior compared to the other three families, and therefore more attentive to rely on and please the Logan family. After Carolyn's grandfather died, only her nursemaid Aunt Stephanie was kind to her. The second generation of the Logan family saw the situation clearly and changed their attitude, wanting the family's grandson young master Herbert to break off the marriage with Carolyn, who is nominally the Palmer family's first lady but is actually a Cinderella. Now that Carolyn has been schemed by Julian and lost her virginity, she is not qualified to marry into the Logan family. Even if Carolyn has the self-awareness to take the initiative to withdraw her marriage, these snobbish people will only fall on the well. Jason's wife, Herbert's mother, took a sip of tea, skipped over what had just happened and said in a "fair" manner, "Since it has already happened, for the sake of the dignity of both families, we can only temporarily condescend to Carolyn. It's also a good thing that Herbert and Julian are lovers." Nick's wife, who had always looked up to her sister-in-law, agreed, "Yes. If things go too far, it will be Carolyn who will be most humiliated." The old Logan's face is difficult, the family reputation is naturally the most important. The world of people seems to have concentrated into the scene at this moment. Carolyn tilted her head to breathe a sigh of relief, forcing tears back into her eyes, and opened them again already in a determined manner, "Don't worry. I won't make a scene. I just want the appropriate compensation." "What? You are the one who proposed to break off the marriage, and you still want to extort a sum from our family!" Nick's wife looked at Carolyn with a contemptuous gaze, and her sharp voice was extraordinarily harsh. "Shut up!" Mr.Logan finally spoke, with pity in his eyes, "Carolyn, what compensation do you want?" Carolyn was not condescending, "Mr.Logan, I want Logan and Palmer to keep paying Aunt Stephanie's medical bills until she wakes up." When Carolyn mentioned Aunt Stephanie, their expressions changed, and only Mr.Logan was puzzled, "Who is she?" Carolyn said, "She is my maid and the closest person in the world to me. Not long ago she had a car accident and needed high medical and hospital fees. The Palmer is only willing to pay 50,000. Mr.Logan, I have no other demands, as long as you save Aunt Stephanie, I promise not to tell anyone about what Julian and Herbert did." For so many years, no one had ever dared to threaten the Logan family. Carolyn, a freshly graduated girl, actually had the guts to negotiate terms with the Logan family. Except for Mr.Logan, everyone else secretly held a grudge against her. "Her medical expenses are fully covered by the our family." Mr.Logan boldly agreed. Jason's wife turned her eyes and asked the old master for a favor, "Dad, let me take care of this. After all, Herbert is also at fault. And as his mother, I should make up for Carolyn." Mr.Logan nodded his head in agreement. Nick's wife secretly sarcastic: sister-in-law's attitude has changed too quickly. Now she is the only one who is unreasonable and does not know how to sympathize with the younger generation. Carolyn bowed to the old master and was about to leave when Julian and Herbert called her back together. Julian was harboring fire in her heart, but she had to act polite in front of these elders, "Sister, Mr.Logan has promised to pay for the medical expenses, you should also delete the recording in front of us." Herbert added, "That's right. Who knows if you'll regret leaking out when you get the money." Carolyn only trusts Mr.Logan who is the master of the family and no one dares to go against what he says. She thought that there should not be any change in Aunt Stephanie's matter, so she opened her phone and deleted the recording.
