Mr. Grant Treats Me Like a Treasure-Chapter 489 - 488: Illegitimate Daughter
James Sterling didn’t know that old Mr. Sterling had planned for him.
He’s not as perfect as Simon, but he’s straightforward, you can tell he was quite handsome when he was young.
The Sterling Family is a big and wealthy enterprise; the old man initially intended for his younger son to take over The Sterling Corporation, and logically, James Sterling as the eldest should have kicked up a fuss with the old man.
However, he didn’t!
He found a girl from a well-matched family to marry, neither of them worked at The Sterling Corporation, instead they opened a restaurant outside.
The small restaurant business was decent, but couldn’t compare to The Sterling Corporation at all.
At first, the old man asked him to return to the Sterling Family, but after asking several times, he just gave up.
Moreover, James Sterling was afraid of his wife, who was famously a shrew.
When he received a call from the old man, he hurried to drive his small truck over.
The old man waited in the garden, watching his eldest son come over wearing an apron and looking filthy, his brows immediately furrowed.
In the past, upon seeing his eldest son’s unkempt and disgraceful appearance, he would have hit him with his cane.
Today, there’s something he needs to talk to him about, so he can’t lose his temper!
"Dad! Is your health okay?"
On the phone, hearing the old man mention "collecting the body," James Sterling rushed over in fright.
Looking at the old man’s rosy face, where does he look like he’s seriously ill, his spirits are quite high.
"Still okay." The old man replied calmly.
His two sons, one is outstanding among men and married the Ford Family’s daughter, the other is sincere and honest, too clumsy.
Years ago, seeing the differences between his two sons, he wholeheartedly cultivated Simon, this is the reason why Simon did anything and everything he intervened.
In contrast, with James, he didn’t bother, even if he married a shrew and wrecked the home, he could still sleep peacefully.
Perhaps because of this, the old man regretted his actions when he saw the living situations of his two sons.
"I have something to discuss with you, sit down."
"Speak, please."
James Sterling picked up the tea from the table, and downed it in one gulp.
Busy at the restaurant, when does he ever have the chance to sit down and drink tea, let alone pretend to be refined.
"I saved a girl, she’s twenty-four, younger than both of yours."
"Dad, this kind of thing, Mom won’t approve," James Sterling interrupted before the old man could finish.
"What is there to approve or disapprove?"
"And at your age, can you really manage keeping a young one?"
Understanding James’s meaning, the old man angrily lashed out with his cane.
"You brat!"
Really couldn’t hold back from hitting him.
"I’m leaving her to you..."
"Dad!"
James Sterling panicked more, his dad was truly crazy, not satisfied with interfering in his brother’s life, he wanted to meddle in his as well.
"I’m not like Simon, my family will kill people."
Besides, he had a son.
"Shut up!"
The old man gritted his teeth in anger, "I want you to take her as your daughter."
"Daughter?"
James Sterling wanted a daughter, after having the eldest, he hoped to have one son and one daughter, just like Simon.
But they had another boy instead of a daughter.
"You need to treat her like a real daughter."
The old voice stated firmly, seeing James Sterling frozen in place, he got angry again and hit him with his cane, "Did you hear what I said!"
"No way." James Sterling thought for a moment, "What if I brought a daughter home and Lana misunderstood!"
What if she thought it was from outside...
"An illegitimate daughter!"
The old man sneered, taking over the conversation, "That’s exactly what I want, make it seen as your illegitimate daughter from outside!"
