Chapter 31 Kiss Me (1/2)
”It is true, so what?” Jacob glanced at him, dismissed him for being too naive and said, ”I am the majority shareholder.”
Jack found it difficult to understand why Jacob would want to invest in Victor's company. If Jacob was interested in jewelry, it would have been much easier for him to run a jewelry company on his own.
”Uncle, do you know that Victor...”
Jack couldn't even finish his sentence without feeling nauseous. It was really hard for him to admit that his own woman and Victor were having an affair.
”What about Victor?”
Jacob looked at him blankly. ”He is like a brother to me. You should also address him as uncle according to his seniority.”
”Uncle?”
Jack was about to spit blood when he heard Jacob.
Jack was only willing to call Jacob ”uncle”, after all, Jacob was his senior in the family. But who was Victor to him?
Why should he call him Uncle Victor?
Not to mention that Victor was Emily's paramour!
How could he ever accept that!
”Jack, do you really think I don't know what you've been up to lately?”
The cold and dreadful voice of Jacob brought Jack back to his senses. Jack wanted to defend himself, but in the end he decided to tighten his lips and shut his mouth.
'Turns out he knew everything about Victor and Emily, and still he chose to invest in LA jewelry, regardless. ' Jack was furious.
”You have not paid any attention to our family business lately, instead you've been wasting your time on a woman.”
Even from his chair, Jacob had a stronger commanding presence compared to Jack who was standing there, motionlessly. ”You have been given a good position, but if you don't excel at your work, there are lots of people who would want to replace you in a heartbeat.”
Jack's facial expression changed drastically. He knew what Jacob said was not only a warning, but also a fact. After all, it was a large family business with multiple branches and many people from his family who would gladly take Jack's place in the company.
Family love had always been the weakness in a wealthy family, while strength was the only thing mattered.
”Uncle, I...” Jack tried to defend himself, but he was abruptly interrupted by Jacob.
”I will transfer you to the M Country branch. In the next term, I want you to focus your mind on your work, rather than women, understand?!”
