The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 81

Chapter 81

The moment Richard finished speaking, the private room fell into a deafening silence.

This stunned not only the Hawthorn family but also the Ellington clan.

The first to snap out of it was Ryan Ellington. He suddenly stood up, his face stern as he asked, “Dad! What the hell are you doing? The succession is a big freaking deal. You just made the decision without discussing it with us?”

Richard glanced at him and responded nonchalantly. “Discuss what? The success the Ellington Group enjoys is because of my blood, sweat, and tears. I don’t need to discuss choosing my successor with anyone.”

The Ellington Group was his own blood and sweat. He turned the Ellington family into the most prosperous family in Rivenwood, and only he knew the struggles he had gone through.

However, ten years ago, the Ellington Group started to decline. He was getting old and couldn’t keep up with the times. Without innovation, the Ellington family would soon be surpassed by other families.

At his age, he was pretty chill with the fame and wealth, but he had to hold onto them. Money was a pretty sweet thing, and it ensured the Ellington family’s peace.

The Ellingtons only saw the prosperity in front of them, but they didn’t see the downhill road the Ellington Group was on. And when the Ellington family was about to go under, it was Percival who brought the Ellington Group back from the dead.

Everyone knew Percival was disabled. They looked at him like a useless person, but they didn’t know that he was a genius.

A long time ago, Richard decided to let Percival take over, but for some reasons, Percival had to pretend to be disabled and not draw attention to himself.

Now that Percival had voluntarily announced that his legs were healed, it proved that he could now carry on with some of his plans. So, it was high time to hand over the Ellington family to Percival.
