Everyone had their eyes on Zephyr as soon as he showed up.
Liam’s cold and strict face finally eased a little bit.
“You’re back?”
Zephyr nodded. “Yes, grandpa.”
Liam raised his chin, signaling him to sit. However, Zephyr walked slowly to the middle of the meeting room. He stood there and glanced through everyone coldly. The powerful aura he exuded was almost suffocating.
Matthew looked at him, stunned. The corner of his lips twitched as he forced a smile.
“You’re back, Zen?”
“Seems like you don’t want me here, uncle?” Zephyr smirked.
“What! I just—”
“You’re just worried that I’d steal my cousin’s and your thunder, right!”
Matthew’s face turned pale from the rage. He stared at him fixedly.
Zephyr walked over calmly, looked at his seat, and chuckled. “I think you’re in the wrong seat. This is mine.”
“You…”
“Although I’m lacking in gathering funds, you don’t have to worry about that, uncle.” Zephyr’s eyes were deep as he enunciated each word. “I’ve solved it!”
Matthew was in disbelief. Apart from relying on his grandfather, what could he have done to gather the astronomical sum!?
Meanwhile, it was Liam’s biggest taboo to get outsiders to interfere with their family matters.
Matthew smiled. He found the perfect opportunity to instigate the grandfather and grandson.
Zephyr remained calm. There was a subtle, cold smile on his chiseled face.
The old man said in a deep voice, “The project requires a rather big fund and the interests of many. We’ll have to be careful. I can’t assign it to one person.
“Yale and Zen are outstanding. Let them work together on the project. That’d be good for the company!”
“Dad, what—”
“No need to work together. I can handle it on my own!”
The deep and cold voice stunned everyone. Many of them watched them fighting in a gloating manner.
Liam looked at him and lowered his voice. “Zen, what your uncle said makes sense. It’s terrible to keep using the funds from Chaiseland!”
“It’s my money.” Zephyr smiled and signaled Robert to give out the documents.
