Chapter 435 - Aida Family Downfall (2/2)
”Even if I have all the money in the world, I can't possibly buy time,” Aida Family Head refused calmly. ”I'll just use the little time I have to clear up the mess caused by the youngsters. As for my children, I can only leave them to their own devices. They have already grown up.”
”I… I understand,” the secretary bowed down. He was holding back his emotion as he spoke out. ”Please excuse me, Sir.”
Aida Family Head looked at his loyal secretary. ”Thank you very much for all the time you spend serving this family. I hope you can have a better life in the future.”
”It has been my joy to follow after you, Sir,” the secretary answered before walking away.
Aida Family Head sighed as he looked at the ceiling. The numerous assets that he had should be enough to cover up for all the debts that piled up in front of the door of their Aida Family. Originally, he wanted to use them for his children, to allow them live a wealthy and comfortable life, but it couldn't happen anymore.
'What have I done wrong in my life?'
He truly wanted to have a normal and enjoyable life with his children. If it was possible, he wanted to see his grandchildren before his death. However, right now, all of them were nothing but mere dream.
His aged hand reached up. He built the Aida Family ever since his young, determined to grow this family to be big enough for his family. Now, all his hard work has gone to waste because of his children.
”I'm tired,” he whispered to himself. It was already too hard for him to keep on doing this all these times. What he wanted to do the most was sleeping; sleeping for a long time and never woke up again. That way, he didn't have to face the trouble that occurred on the door of his place anymore.
At this time, his secretary was busy to take care of the debt. His eyes held complicated gaze as he looked towards Aida Family Head's room. For decades, he had been following this man. He had seen for himself the power behind this man, and how he carved his way up during his youth.
The Aida Family was in slump when this man took over, making it trail behind the other three families. It was this man who rejuvenated the companies, pouring all his time and effort to build companies. Slowly, the Aida Family become more powerful and no longer at the very end.
It was amazing.
In his eyes, this man would always be his idol and his best friend. However, the glory didn't last long. Time has caught up with them, forcing them to move behind the screen and pushed the youngster to come to the front.
”If only his children can be as great as him,” the secretary lamented.
Vena was amazing, but she was too reckless in her way of doing things. The power she had caused her to be blind towards the small schemes of others, causing her fall. Jon has his own good points, but he never wanted to use them as he spent his time to enjoy himself.
As it was not related to business, there was no need for him to say that the young man would never want to inherit the business even if he could. That young man has backed off from the very start from the competition.
Making a call to Jon, he sighed to himself. ”Young Master, all of the assets in Aida Family is gone, including your house. You have to move.”
A series of curse was all he got from the young man and his wife, yet his face didn't change in the slightest.
”You have to move within one day, or there will be people who force you to move.”
Finishing the call, the secretary sighed. He looked around using gaze filled with sadness.
'After today, Aida Family is no more.'
