Chapter 612

A snigger escaped Amos' mouth. "I didn't visit any of the shareholders like you did. The people whosupport me are doing so willingly. I guess there's a scale in those shareholders' hearts, and they knowwho will do best for the company's development as the president, unlike you, who tries to get thingsdone by saying a few words!"

"Don't you have any shame at all?" Edward hollered in anger. "So, you didn't visit them and they'rewillingly supporting you? Aren't you boasting a little too much? Who was the one who walked out ofRichard's house last night? Say Richard, wasn't Amos at your place last night?"

"I was just dropping by to say hi. What's the problem if I went to his place for a drink? Do I need yourpermission?" Amos snapped.

"Do you even believe the things you said yourself?" Edward retorted. "According to your saying, thenwhat I did was also dropping by to say hi."

Wearing a helpless expression, Richard tried to intervene. "Stop arguing. As long as it's for the good ofthe company, it doesn't make a difference who the president is!"

"I just didn't think that he could say something so heartless," Edward grumbled. "The shareholders whoare supporting you must be blind!"

Then, Amos slammed the table and sprang up as well. "How can you say that? The ones supportingyou are blind too! For your whole life, you've been a wimp, and besides this woman in your heart, whoelse is there? Don't forget that your son is still in the hospital!"

As Merlin watched his sons argue, he was glad that he was living in modern times and not in ancienttimes. Otherwise, he might end up witnessing a scene of his sons fighting over a throne.

Just for the sake of a mere company president position, they were willing to throw their brotherhood outthe window along with the relationship that they had as father and son.

What a sad situation it is, he thought, his eyes staring into the distance with a touch of melancholy. Iftheir mother is still alive, will she be heartbroken to see this?

Suddenly, Amos turned to Merlin. "Dad, are you going to support a person like Edward?"

"Do you think he'll support you instead of me? You still have no idea about this at your age now?"Edward argued.

The shareholders in the room shifted their gaze from one man to the other as though they werewatching an interesting debate.

Sure enough, there were a lot of arguments within an influential family! The Nolan Family was reallycomplicated with its load of dark secrets. Eugene was still alive, but they were already arguing witheach other so badly.

If he had really passed away, there would be more people involved and fury would probably sendMerlin to an earlier death!

In fact, that wasn't so far from the truth now. Livid from the anger, Merlin slammed the table and roared,"Stop arguing!"

In an instant, Edward and Amos shut their mouths and the conference room fell silent.

Merlin took deep, heavy breaths as his chest rose and fell with the rhythm. Even though Eugene hadwarned him about this and he knew that the situation was within his control, he was still so mad that hehad no words to say for a long while!

Curtis hurriedly stroked his back and assured him in a soft voice, "Take care of your health, MasterMerlin. The doctor has advised you not to get too worked up."

Hearing that, Merlin gradually calmed himself down. That's right! Both of them are ingrates, and Ishouldn't waste my time getting angry at them.

Lifting his eyes, he scanned the faces bearing different expressions before he finally fixed his gaze onEdward. "Is it really worth it for the position of the company's president? Is this a throne where you candisregard your brotherhood, ignore your sick child and nephew, and embarrass yourselves in front of somany shareholders? Is it really worth it?"

Sitting down sheepishly, Edward answered, "Dad, I'm just being kind, but I didn't know that Amos hasso many opinions about me."

Richard threw him an indifferent look. "Shut up. You sound so rhetoric, saying that it's for the sake ofthe company and that you're being kind. If you're really thinking for the company, you should just do thejob as it's supposed to be done. Why do you need to fight for the position of the president?"
