A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 831

Lillian's voice dripped with sarcasm as she sneered. "Oh, please. What's there to be so smug about? So, his company's worth hundreds of billions—big deal. Mommy and Daddy handed it to him on a silver platter. It's not even in the same ballpark as our Knox building his empire from the ground up!"

It was obvious she still believed Jack's success was entirely due to Quintis and Emily's support.

The relatives and friends nearby all nodded. The idea that Jack built a company that big on his own seemed like pure fantasy.

In their minds, Quintis' influence must have played a role. After all, the Sandalwood Group was a powerhouse, and a little help from them wouldn't be surprising. But no matter how it came about, such an achievement was astonishing.

However, Tatiana shook her head and said, "You've got it all wrong. Jack built this company on his own. Aunt Emily and Uncle Quin only reconnected with him about a year ago.

"By then, Genesis Games had already taken the world by storm. So yes, Jack is the real self-made success behind this 200 billion empire. If you don't believe me, just ask Aunt Emily if she ever invested a single cent in Genesis Games."

Samantha, Lillian, Josie, and the others immediately turned their gazes toward Emily. She looked just as bewildered—clearly, she knew nothing about Genesis Games.

Tatiana's words weren't baseless. No matter how much envy and bitterness festered in their hearts, they had to face the truth. Deep down, Samantha, Lillian, and Josie knew Tatiana wasn't making this up.

Samantha regarded her grandson, the one she had once written off as a useless thug. A complicated expression crossed her face, soon giving way to a quiet sense of awe.

When had this grandson, cast off and forgotten, managed to shine so brilliantly?

The older generation had a deep-rooted belief in official ranks. Even with Knox's company on the verge of going public, the family still had other plans for him.

They wanted him to leave the private sector and move into a state-owned enterprise. After gaining experience there, the plan was for him to enter politics. He would start as a local official, with the ultimate goal of securing a position in the central government.

But that didn't mean they didn't value success in business.

The business world was a battlefield. The fact that Knox had carved out his own path without relying on the family said a lot about his talent and leadership.

The Lycan family had every reason to be proud of such a remarkable talent in their midst.
