CHAPTER ONE
“Good morning, Claire” Samuel greeted his wife. Coming down the stairs, Claire bump into her husband who happen to just come out from the kitchen.
“Morning, why are you up so early in the morning?” she asked her husband
“Preparing breakfast so that you will not be late for work” he replied
She felt warm in her heart, for the past five years, he had not make a single achievement but had always care for her which make her unable to deny that she did not have feeling for him. “Thank you” she replied before having her breakfast.
After eating, she stand up to go to work but stop at the door before turning to her husband who is clearing the table.
“What’s your grandfather situation?” she asked him
His face change slightly and he look dejected but he’s feeling happy partially because his wife care about his father.
“The surgery will be done in two days’ time and a deposit of 500,000 yuan needed to be deposited” he sighed heavily
“The company situation is not good but I will give you 100,000 yuan” she said
Samuel felt warm in his heart and his eyes were slightly red to know that his wife really care about him “I will find a way to raise the money so that the surgery can be done” he said amidst tear.
By the way, tomorrow is the family annual meeting and I will like you to go with me, his wife said and left without waiting for his opinion.
He stood in the same position as emotion came running through his mind, he thought about when he was from the Lincoln family ten years ago when he was 18 years after the disappearance of his parents and grandfather. He met his adopted grandfather during this period when he was on the verge of committing suicide when he was expelled from the Andrews family, old master Hannigan, Samuel’s nominal grandfather is a medical genius who is also the master of white paragon in the city capital of Eastcliff. He had no heir and that was one of the reason why he treated Samuel as his own child so that he can inherit his medical skill but he live a poor life and Samuel never know of his great deed. Now, the man who treated him as his own is in need of money for surgery but he can’t provide it, how can he not be worry.
“Perhaps, I can only ask the old lady for her support tomorrow, even if I have to kowtow to the whole of Andrew family” he said and finally continue his housework.
At the Andrew’s company
In the vice president’s office, a young man of about 25 years of age sat on the vice president’s sit, he wore a luxury blue suit and carry the aura of a rich second generation. He is Harvey Andrew, Claire cousin and the heir to the Andrew family, he is favored by the old lady Andrew and was appointed as the vice president of the Andrew’s company. A young lady of about 23 years of age is sitting on his lap now and playing with him, she’s Harvey’s personal secretary and she’s very arrogant in the company because of her relationship with the vice president.
Tomorrow is the family annual meeting, what can I gift the old lady? Harvey suddenly asked his secretary.
You can just give her a jade pendant since she loves jewelries very much, she replied
Oh! That’s really a good idea and I never thought of it, that’s very thoughtful of you, he said flatteringly
It’s my duty to share your worries with you, and by the way, when are you kicking that b***h called Claire out of your family so that I can have a breathing space, she asked looking pitifully
Don’t worry I will definitely find a chance to kick her out of the family tomorrow at the annual meeting in front of everyone, he replied with a smile
You know I never liked her for once since the beginning, she replied feeling angry
I promise you she will never return to this company, he said slapping her on her buttock and move her closer to himself planting a kiss on her lips. There were both turned on immediately but were interrupted by a slight knock on the door.
Come in, the secretary replied looking unpleasant
At this time, Claire come in holding a file in her hand, looking at the situation, she realized she come in at the wrong moment and bound to be insulted by these shameless beast.
As expected, Harvey said at this moment, don’t you know when to come into the office?
The financial department reported that 100,000 yuan was transferred this morning from the company’s account and the company did not purchase anything during this period, so I came to report if you know anything about it? She explained
All you know how to do is to interfere in other people’s affair, just because you are a supervisor, you think you can interfere in the company’s financial department? He asked
I’m only doing my job by reporting the unusual transaction, she retorted
Seeming to be getting angry, he replied “don’t worry, by this time tomorrow, I will kick you and that your foolish husband out of the family”
Do as you wish, anyway, the suppliers have cut off our supplies, she dropped the file in her hand and walk out of the office angrily.
After leaving, Harvey laughed out loud and said “by this time tomorrow, you will accompany young master Cooper to sign this contract again, I want to see the look on that bastard husband of yours after learning about it”
Jessica, Harvey secretary looked pleased and praised her lover heartily,
Feeling happy with each other, they went out of the company together.
