Enchanted By His Charm-Chapter 692 692: What Kind Of Grudge?
Roy looked at him, raising his eyebrows. "Uncle, you want to say that Joseph killed my father? Is there any evidence?"
"I think there must have been someone else who heard the two arguments, and more importantly, your father was not in good health, but why was he so vulnerable? He experienced the Sexy Photo Accident, so it's reasonable that your father's psychological endurance is extreme. How can Ruby's affair directly lead to his death?"
Shirley opened her eyes widely. "Do you mean Joseph put medicine on Henry? Oh, my God, I remember. Joseph came to the Lake's house before Henry's death. And the bowl with food was brought by him to the study room that a housekeeper should do."
William nodded heavily, "There's absolutely something wrong with that."
Roy listened to that, annoyed, "That's impossible. Joseph can't do such a thing."
"Do you know the feud between Joseph's family and the Lake family?" William asked.
Roy was surprised, "Feud? What kind of grudge?
His words made Shirley and Kelly also puzzled.
William said in a heavy tone, "I also accidentally learned about it in my early years, and then your father made me swear that I would never tell anyone else about it for the rest of my life. I swear, so I never mentioned it to you. But now, I suspect that Joseph has ulterior motives. He has stayed in the Runestone Group for so many years because he wants to get the things of the Dover family back." 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
Later, William said what had happened between Lake and Dover's family at that time, and finally, he added, "Morally speaking, the Lake family was sorry for his family, but for the business growth, this is inevitable. At that time, Joseph's family was already in that kind of situation. Even if the Lake family did not come forward, other companies were eyeing it covetously. This is a cruel rule in the business world, and no one can help it."
Roy sat in his chair and could not say a word for a moment. All he knew was that Dover's family and the Lake family were friends. He knew that his father treated Joseph as his own son and paid for his education. He could not have thought that there was a secret behind that.
Shirley could not resist, "Joseph must have done it. We have to call the police. We can't just let him go! Oh, my God, it is horrible! It turns out we've been raising an ungrateful man!"
Lilith couldn't bear it anymore. She put the fork on the table, "How can you think of him like that? He has been taking care of the company all these years. If he wants to swallow the Runestone Group, he doesn't have to wait until now."
"Silly daughter, you don't understand what's going on in the business world." William did not yell at Lilith to shut up but explained with great patience, "Joseph was right, he has stayed in the Runestone Group for many years, but he came back from abroad suddenly and sat in the position of the general manager. He has not been in power all the time. Think about it. As soon as he became general manager at the beginning of the year, he began to be bold. The first unlucky thing was Jack, who owns Lake's shares. He has been our original shareholder since the Runestone Group was founded. What just occurred? He questioned Joseph's management ability on the board of directors, and he was kicked out. And Joseph gave us an account that Jack used his position to make money. I do not know if you believe or do not believe. I really know what kind of person Jack is. The Runestone Group is not so easy to annex, so Joseph has to find an opportunity. During this time, he constantly accumulated contacts and channel resources, and his motive was to silently remove the people of the Lake family from Runestone Group and change into his people. He will not openly seize the company because everyone will know that. What he wanted was to force the Runestone Group to be unable to leave him and let everyone know that he is the real master of the Runestone Group."
Roy opened his mouth for a long time. "Uncle, even if the relationship between his family and the Lake is true, the following are speculation. We have no evidence that Joseph killed my father or that he has been trying to annex the Runestone Group."
William looked helplessly at Roy. "I think you have become stupid. Who can tell the truth, whether it is true or not, in the business world? What you see is all superficial harmony. Take the current Runestone Group as an example, it looks quite normal, the stock price is also stable, and the drilling and mining side is also good. But Roy, you can go to the company to see if there are shareholders on the board of directors are the Lake family. You can ask the staff who is the hero of the Runestone Group in their hearts. I think you also understand that when a soldier's glory covers the emperor's, the soldier will conspire to usurp the throne if the emperor does not eradicate the soldier."
"Roy, your uncle is right. You can't take it lightly. Now the Lake family is counting on you." Shirley got angry at the thought of being driven out of the Lake's house by Irish. She would like to find her and slap her.
Roy sighed.
"It doesn't matter if you question me. Why don't you go back to the company for a while and watch it yourself?" William persuaded him painstakingly.
Roy was silent for a long time and said, "I can go back and see what's going on." Then, as several of them turned happy, he added, "but I have one condition."
"Oh, my son, what are the conditions for you to go back to your own company?" Shirley said in a hurry.
Roy frowned. "If you don't say yes, I won't go to the company." At the end of the conversation, he got up and prepared to go.
William hastened to reach for Roy, "What is the condition, say it."
Roy's eyes fell on Shirley's face. "Don't set me up with Lynn Siewert. We are impossible. I already have a woman I like. Mom, I'll marry her this May. The condition is that you can't object to us."
"What?" Shirley stood up as soon as he heard it. "Son, are you going to marry? That's a good thing, why do I object? Who is the woman, and how about her family?"
