A Moment in Destiny

Sylvie Mccarthy was so frightened that she immediately shouted, “Take it easy dad, things will work out. Uncle Kasper, please take Uncle Teddie with you and leave first.”

“This… okay!” Kasper Hughes dragged Teddie Hughes out of the conference room.

“Aiden look at yourself, you should stop worrying about them. You’re already in trouble yourself! Aren’t all the worries that you’ve had over the years enough?” Miriam Riley sighed and gently stroked his chest.

“He’s a member of the Hughes family after all. Money is not that important. It’s just that I’ve really indulged Teddie too much. I’m also responsible for who he had become after all these years!” Aiden Hughes said in a slow voice.

Sylvie’s heart was in an indescribable feeling. Money was not that important, her father-in-law valued kinship above all else, but that man didn’t cherish it and never knew when to stop. She didn’t know whether it was worth it or not for Aiden to do so. Some things, perhaps, couldn’t be required with money or general moral standards.

And for patriarch Mccarthy, he funded 1.5 billion to Hughes Group for her, so did he also see money as something that was not important? Did he also see kinship as more important than money? But she had never called him grandpa. Thinking about this, she suddenly felt that she might have been too cruel, and her heart stung all of a sudden.

Sylvie hesitated for a moment and finally spoke, “Don’t worry dad. I’ll go find my grandfather. You can rest assured I won’t sit idly by and do nothing about Uncle Teddie and Ernie!”

“Sylvie?” Both Aiden and Miriam were stunned, turning their eyes to her at the same time and looking at her in disbelief.

Sylvie stunned for a moment and smiled, “Dad, mom, money is not that important. Dad is right, as long as Uncle Teddie and Ernie repent sincerely then I’m willing to try. Just that please don’t tell them about it, and this will be the last time. We can’t keep indulging them anymore!”

“Sylvie, you’re such a good child!” Miriam came forward and held Sylvie’s hand. She had heard Sylvie’s words outside the conference room today. Miriam didn’t know before why she married Marley, especially when the Hughes family was in trouble, and didn’t expect that Sylvie would defend Marley and the Hughes family in every way. If she hadn’t overheard it outside, then she might still have her hesitations. But when she heard that, she was really surprised and touched, her wariness towards Sylvie disappeared at once, “It’s a blessing that Marley married you. Your father and I are grateful to you for being so considerate!”

“Mom, there’s no need to be polite as a family!” Sylvie was a little embarrassed.

“But Aiden, Sylvie is right. Teddie and Ernie do need to suffer a little. We can’t compromise every time, and the amount is so large this time, what is Marley supposed to do if this happens again? You already got sick because of them, I don’t want my son to fall sick because of them too.” Miriam said with a sigh.

“Leave it to Sylvie to handle it.” Aiden stood up, “Let’s go back to the hospital!”

“Dad, mom, I’ll send you off.” Sylvie was a little worried. She even personally called to ask if a specialized car and driver were arranged and accompanied them to the first floor to get on the car.

At the entrance of the building, Miriam held Sylvie’s hand, “Sylvie, I don’t have a daughter, so I’ll treat you as a daughter from now on. Thank you for doing so much for Marley! I can see that you’re truly helping him.”

“Mom, you’re really being too polite!”

When Marley Hughes and Tyler Cooper came back, the two were standing by the car so they saw this scene while sitting in their car. But Miriam had already gotten into the car, so she didn’t see her son’s car drive by.

Besides, Hughes Group is now trying to solve their crisis problem and once several big projects in the pipeline are completed, the return will be quite substantial. Hence, why would they hand over their shares at such a low price. However, I do think that we can let them hand over part of their shares and then have them make an agreement.
