Chapter 320
Feeling humiliated just then, lan snapped, “What do you think you’re doing. Dad?!”
Having an affair at his age?
Quincy would flip out if she knew!
In fact, lan himself was already losing his mind!
Still, he worked hard to cool his temper and stopped himself from getting in the car to drag the woman out. “Tell her to get out of
your car right now!”
Kathy York was startled right then, and promptly threw herself into Greg’s arms.
Greg naturally felt protective seeing that his sweetheart was frightened, and shot his son a glare, “Don’t think you can order me
around just because you became CEO of Light Group. I’m still your father-and you don’t ever get to talk to me like that!”
With that, he shut the door in lan’s face and snapped at his chauffeur to drive, leaving lan shaking with rage.
Robin walked up to him gingerly, and tried to assure him, “Maybe it’s not what you think...”
“What, does it only count if I catch them in bed?!” lan was wheezing, feeling down in the dumps just then.” I think you should go. I
don’t think I can take you home today.”
“Okay...” Robin murmured.
She was certainly reluctant since it was a rare chance for her to meet lan’s parents. Even so, her feelings did not matter after
what just happened, and had to accept that as reality.
As for lan, he headed straight home... but could not say a word when he actually saw Quincy.
He knew his mother’s temper, and that if she found out, she would definitely go to war with Greg.
And at the moment, they had yet to rein in Light Group back on the right track, and he would rather not have family troubles on
his plate too.
Light Group was lan’s priority... but as things go, the more you care, the more you would lose it.
Just two weeks after the 80 million dollar investment into James Cross’s Eastdawn, the man called him, saying. “Sorry, lan, but
we ran into a snag. We’re going to need more capital.”
lan had been in a bad mood since learning about Greg’s affair, and James’s request for additional capital left him even more
annoyed.
“I thought you said the development is in its final phase?” he asked with an edge in his voice. “Are you saying that the 80 million I
injected isn’t enough? What happened?”
“Yes, we wouldn’t have needed a second injection if things had gone smoothly, but there’s an issue now. It’s alright if you’re not
interested-we have other interested parties..”
“We have an agreement,” lan growled, cutting him short. “It’s stated in black-and-white that we’re your sole partners. You’re
breaching the agreement if you find someone else!”
“Yes, but my company is this close! Am i supposed to just give up on all the capital spent on the development instead of finding
solutions? James became harsh and direct as well. “I didn’t want to say it, but you definitely don’t have Isaac Jefferson’s mettle.
Do you remember how everyone only had praise
for him back when he was in charge? He’s even famous for throwing money into risky projects-”
“What is that supposed to mean?” lan was already upset, and the mention of Isaac only worsened his mood. “Are you calling me
stingy?”
James, however, was not afraid to provoke him with an agreement signed. “Yes, you’re stingy,” he said shortly. “Your company is
worth billions, and we’re just asking for 150 million, but you’re already getting cagey. How is that not stingy?”
Ian frowned. “What was that? 150 million?”
