Chapter 1298 I Won’t Do This Job

“Hmph!” Rosaline huffed. “Adrien and Adam are good kids, unlike some people who have no sense of humanity!”

Julianna retorted, “You!”

“What about me?” Rosaline snapped back.

“Both of you, quit it!” Oscar snapped. “Listen to me, not each other!”

“Of course, Dad!” Julianna quickly tried to appease him, shooting a disdainful glance at Rosaline, who returned the gesture with an eye-roll, neither of them willing to back down..

Oscar spoke up. “As you all know, there’s a longstanding feud between the Ryker family and the Adelmar Clan. Coincidentally, Emmeline is from the Adelmar Clan!”

Landen and Julianna exchanged a knowing look, keeping their thoughts to themselves, believing the matter had already been confirmed.

“If it weren’t for what happened five years ago when someone drugged Abel, and he got into that embarrassing situation,” Oscar continued. “I would have suspected that Emmeline might be a spy planted by the Adelmar Clan!”

You certainly have an active imagination! Abel thought, and Emmeline proposed, Should we consider reviving Alana Lane to testify on my behalf?

“Fortunately, Abel and Emmeline’s affair came first, so I won’t pursue whether Emmeline is a spy,” Oscar continued to rant. “But while you can escape capital punishment, you can’t escape guilt. I initially intended to cast Emmeline out of the Ryker family, and that matter could have been settled. However, Abel refuses to give up on this woman. He’s willing to forsake the Ryker Group for her. It’s truly disappointing!”

Julianna’s eyes suddenly lit up, almost exclaiming, “Wonderful!”

Landen tugged on her clothing and whispered, “Steady yourself!”

At that, Julianna quirked her lips in dissatisfaction and composed herself.

“So, I’ve summoned Landen’s family for a meeting,” Oscar continued. “Since Abel is willing to relinquish Ryker Group, I won’t beg him to stay. The current issue is who will take over the Ryker Group!”

“Of course, it should be Adam!” Julianna couldn’t hold back any longer. “Dad, you’ve always had high hopes for Adam, haven’t you?”

“Silence!” Oscar slammed the table. “Nothing good will come out of being forced. If Adam doesn’t want to do it, I won’t force him. The job will fall onto Adrien!”

“What?!” Adrien jumped up. “Grandad, please take back your decision. I’m not fit to be the CEO of Ryker Group!”

Slam! Oscar slammed the table again, this time with great force. “Are you expecting me to come out of retirement and raise you spineless bunch?!”

“Or you can have my dad or Uncle Lewis do it…” Adrien mumbled hesitantly.

“Hmph!” Oscar sneered. “Your dad and Uncle Lewis?”

Adrien nodded. “They are only in their fifties, are they not? Isn’t it just right?”

“You sure are confident in them!” Oscar insinuated and pointed at Landen and Lewis. “These two, ask them what they’ve been up to in their teens, the prime years for studying!”
