Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 86

“Tassach, you’re my favourite grandchild. I raised you. I have four sons and one daughter. Your dad likes drawing. Your second uncle, though a bit business-minded, is too honest and not courageous enough. Your third uncle only likes being a director. Although his movies aren’t bad, working in the entertainment industry isn’t a proper career. The industry is filled with actors. This job is considered embarrassing in ancient times. As for your fourth uncle, he likes teaching. In contrast, your aunt is a gifted business person, but she’ll get married eventually and won’t be considered a member of our family anymore. So I can only entrust you with Conduibh Group.”

There was a touch of the vicissitudes of life on Old Mr. Conduibh’s face. “Tassach, I’m old and I’ll pass away eventually. Promise me that you’ll come back to inherit the family business. As for your wife, your mom will help you find someone nice. That woman really isn’t suitable for you.”

It was also difficult for Tassach. He was raised by Old Mr. Conduibh, who was smart and wise. Old Mr. Conduibh loved him and taught him hand in hand at the same time, so he had deeper feelings for Old Mr. Conduibh than his parents.

“Grandpa, I respect you a lot. I can promise you everything else. It’s just that Ophelia is the only woman I’ve ever loved. I can’t abandon her.” Tassach said sincerely, “Grandpa, you also said that I’m your favourite grandchild, so let me do what I want and be stubborn for once.”

A haze flashed across Old Mr. Conduibh’s eyes. He said, “Fool! Tassach, you’re smart, but you can’t let things go emotionally. Sooner or later, you’ll suffer the consequences. If you want to succeed, you can’t be restrained by your emotions.”

“Grandpa, work is work. Personal life is personal life. I’ll take care of both,” Tassach said seriously.

“Tassach, listen to me. That woman isn’t worthy of you. Forget her and try spending some time with the daughter of the King family.”

Tassach stood up suddenly and said, “Grandpa, if you keep saying this, I don’t think we need to talk anymore.”

“Stop!”

Tassach stopped.

“Tassach, you’ve grown up, and you’re independent now. I don’t want to use such strong means to force you to come back either. But I hope that you can be more mature. The Conduibh Group will be yours in the future, so don’t be so self-willed.”

Tassach turned around and said, “Grandpa, I respect you, but I want to be the one making decisions about my relationship.”

Old Mr. Conduibh said, “Okay, I won’t force you. It’s time for dinner.”

Tassach only said, “Grandpa, I still have some work to do. I’ll…”

“Tassach, you’ve grown up that you’re even using this excuse to beat around the bush in front of me.”

At this point of the conversation, there was nothing Tassach could say anymore.

Gracie opened her mouth to speak. Her voice was very soft and sounded coquettish, which made it music to the ears. “Tassach, mom and dad have always said that you are successful, so I’ve been very curious about you. If you don’t mind, I can work at your company. I also happen to be very interested in design.”

Tassach gazed at her.

“It’s rare for someone like Gracie who has achieved the highest level of academic mastery to not mind working at your shabby company. Tassach, now that Gracie has spoken, don’t make up any more excuses,” Mrs. Conduibh said with a touch of warning.

Tassach took another bite of the food and said, “Well, Miss King has spoken, and I also value talent. But we do things according to the rules at my company, I hope Miss King wouldn’t mind showing me your resume first.”

Gracie smiled gently and said, “Of course I don’t mind. I’ll have my resume ready tomorrow, and I’ll personally deliver it to your company. I’ll be in your care then.”

Mrs. Conduibh said sneakily, “Tassach, Gracie grew up abroad, but she didn’t develop any bad habits. When she arrives at your company, you should take care of her. Don’t let Gracie feel aggrieved.”

Tassach nodded and said, “Yes, mom.”
