Always Been Yours

After that, he handed a file to Nicholas for a final check.

Nicholas looked through it, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Contact my uncles. Tell them to come over and sign this contract."

Edward swiftly carried out the task.

Zachary, Calvin, and Felix showed up in Nicholas' office in less than half an hour.

When Nicholas saw them, he waved the drafted contract in his hand before handing it over. "Have a look and sign it if there's no issue."

They exchanged a look with one another, took the contract, and checked it for any loopholes.

However, their facial expression drastically changed the moment they read through the contents of the contract, especially Calvin. His volcanic temperament instantly erupted, and he criticized, "Are you not afraid of drowning yourself to death in the gigantic pool of wealth profited from all these companies?!"

"We can't hand over all these companies to you," Zachary also immediately expressed his disapproval sullenly.

It turned out that the management rights indicated in the contract were all branch offices that Nicholas had picked out long ago, and they were the most profitable companies in Europe.

As Nicholas had expected that his bullheaded yet foolish uncles would not agree to his terms, he wasn't surprised when he was confronted with their rejection. He merely intoned calmly, "That's fine with me. But you have to think twice, no? We can pretend that our previous discussion never took place if you do not wish to agree to this deal."

After that, he rose to his feet and stared them down coldly as he instructed, "Edward, kindly show these three uncles of mine the way out."

Zachary, Calvin, and Felix were about to explode when they were faced with such disrespect.
