"So, are we still betting on James Reed?" Old Mrs. Wilson understood Old Mrs. Wilson’s meaning.

"Yes." Old Mrs. Wilson nodded and said, "We don’t need to flatter James Reed; that would be too demeaning. Just treat Benjamin Walton a bit better."

Old Mrs. Wilson immediately understood. Now that James Reed is cooperating with Benjamin Walton, Benjamin Walton certainly wouldn’t let go of Reed, who is such a strong ally.

In this way, as long as they give Benjamin a little goodwill, if Benjamin becomes successful, he surely won’t forget about them.

After all, they are family.

"What about the company affairs..." Old Mrs. Wilson asked tentatively.

"Let Benjamin handle it for now." Old Mrs. Wilson sighed lightly. Actually, he really still hoped his son would come back. Unfortunately... Sophie is involved, preventing their father and son from reuniting.

If Mason were to return, why would he need to take this path, come up with such a solution?

Sophie clearly has a better and more convenient way, yet she stubbornly won’t let him take it.

This granddaughter, how could he possibly grow to like her?

In the training camp, three people sat in the office, all around fifty years old. Although their faces bore varying degrees of age, the spirit and vitality of these three were quite evident; they were clearly capable individuals.

"These two young ones have finally come together." The slightly burly branch chairman said with a smile, his tone affectionate as if discussing younger family members, revealing a kind of indulgent comfort in his words.

"The girl once had her memory erased, yet after all the twists and turns, it still ended up this way. It’s their fate." The vice-chairman, who seemed slightly more refined than the branch chairman who appeared to have a martial background, had a calm and composed demeanor, much like a teacher.

"I’ll head back first." Frederick Cole stood up and said.

Among the three, he was the youngest, yet also the most serious.

"Okay." The vice-chairman nodded, watching Frederick leave.

After the door closed, the branch chairman couldn’t help but say, "His return will certainly stir up chaos at home."

The vice-chairman shook his head, saying helplessly, "If he doesn’t go back, it’ll be even more chaotic."

The branch chairman was left speechless, finally remarking, "You know, with a sister-in-law with such a good nature, how could her daughter be so... clueless?"

After all, it’s the sister-in-law’s child, and as the older brothers, it’s not their place to say too much.

That Hayley Cole is more than just clueless; she’s downright unreasonable.

"Takes after her father, I suppose." The vice-chairman sighed and shook his head. "Cole is good in every way except being too dull and stubborn. If he hadn’t disregarded everything to marry her back then, there wouldn’t be so much trouble now."

"He just didn’t want to reveal his identity, which is why her family looks down on him."

"Hey, I don’t agree with that." The branch chairman interrupted the vice-chairman. "Oh, so marriage requires considering the family? Back then, Cole had a bright future in the training camp. He was a good guy. Why rely on the family?"

"He had money and property. It’s her family’s shallow nature if they were willing to break them up just for a bit of money." The branch chairman snorted, feeling it was unfair for Frederick.

"Stop it, will you." The vice-chairman couldn’t help but counter, "You’re still defending Cole? Look at this, hasn’t he been regretting it all these years? If not, why would he be so indulgent with Hayley Cole?"
