Chapter 729 - Alfred’s Determination
Hearing these words, Kenny understood the threat.
He smiled sarcastically. "Mr. Alfred, please don't worry. I'll say exactly what you said. I'm sorry that our president is really busy. Then… Do you still want to book an appointment for next month?"
Alfred wasn't angry, he just smiled deeply while looking at Kenny. The guy didn't speak anymore then turned around and left the Genesis company.
On the stairs outside the building, Alfred closed his eyes and sighed. The bodyguard beside him could clearly see his boss' mood and muttered, "Young master, do you want to teach them some lesson? I can plan something for you."
"Not!" Alfred raised his hand and refused the bodyguard's suggestion. "The time I crashed their car... Have you asked someone to fix it?"
The bodyguard was taken aback, then quickly replied, "No, that woman keeps saying that there is no time, so this matter is postponed!"
Alfred turned slowly, then shifted his gaze to the bodyguard's panicked eyes, and said meaningfully, "Since this is our fault, the maintenance must be done as soon as possible."
The guard looked coldly at Alfred. He quickly understood his intentions. "Young master, don't worry. I'll do this tomorrow!"
Alfred descended the stairs, his angry face turned a little bright.
In just one afternoon, his Galaxy real estate lost more than two billion on the stock market.
The stock has almost dropped to the limit!
He wanted to settle this account with the Widjaya family as quickly as possible!
...
Starting today, Galaxy Real Estate's shares in the real estate industry suddenly experienced a large amount of retail sales, which caused panic among the shareholders who were still holding positions.
Galaxy Real Estate's reputation was questioned from all sides overnight.
At the same time, financial news specifically reported on the incident and said it would continue to follow up on the report.
The war between Jean and Alfred looks set to start today.
That night, Alfred hurried back to the Ricardo family in Yogyakarta.
Approaching eleven o'clock in the evening, he got out of the car a little rough.
Entering the door of the house, he saw his brother Ricky sitting with Florence drinking tea? in a brightly lit living room.
When he saw Alfred, the brother folded his legs and casually threw a sarcasm. "Alfred, I heard that the market value of Galaxy Real Estate has evaporated today. Have you come back here to tell me this?"
After hearing his brother's taunts, Alfred's face looked ugly.
But the Iron Lady's sharp eyes stared at him, and her brows tightened. "My grandson, what's wrong?"
Alfred glanced at Ricky indifferently, not answering his scorn.
He walked towards Florence and whispered in her ear, "Grandma, come on in and talk, I need to talk to you alone for a few things!"
Florence's favorite grandson is Alfred, so of course she doesn't refuse. "Alright then. Ricky, it's late at night, you better get back as soon as you can."
Ricky's expression changed. He sat here with this old woman and chatted all night. Now Alfred came back and he got kicked out right away?!
Alfred approached and helped his grandmother to get up, they then went to her study right after. Before he left the living room, he looked back. "Since you have time to worry about my business, you better think about what you can do for our Ricardo family!"
Then he disappeared into the corridor of the back hall.
Ricky gritted his teeth and stared at their figure, his throat swallowing his anger.
He was so furious that he immediately smashed the teacup on the floor.
'Alfred... It's too early for you to be proud of yourself!'
When Ricky got back to the car, he became more furious than ever. He took out his cell phone and called without hesitation. "Are you sleeping?"
"..."
"I'm sorry to trouble you, but could you help me to introduce myself to Jean Widjaya?!"
After Ricky hung up, he rolled down the window and smoked.
His brows furrowed, making stripes hanging over his gloomy forehead.
Did Alfred think that he could do whatever he wanted with the inheritance rights of the Ricardo family?!
If he thought so then he's so silly!
And that old woman, she had a special preference for Alfred since he was a child, and didn't see any other children in her family.
Since those grandmother and grandson thought they could cover the sky with one hand, he wanted to see if his Ricardo family could stand tall after the attack from outside or rather, from the Widjaya family who was much stronger.
... ....
That night, Alfred Ricardo left the family's home at 2 AM.
Standing in the courtyard in front of the door, he looked at a foggy night, his eyes sharp as a knife.
Here, the guard who was waiting in the car lifted his eyelids with a sleepy face. Seeing Alfred's figure, he quickly opened the car's door. "Young master, are you leaving already?"
Alfred's expression was cold. Before he could speak, a call from Florence came from behind him. "Alfred, wait!"
It was already past two, and old Florence was actually very tired. But the expression on her face was still full of energy.
Alfred turned around, walked towards his grandmother and lowered his head. "Grandma, why are you still not sleeping?"
Florence raised her hand and tapped him on the shoulder. "Alfred, even though I agreed to help you, you have to remember that this is the last time! No matter what, once we do this, we and the Widjaya family will fight it out and our relationship will never be the same. If you lose, our Ricardo family will definitely perish. Sometimes, keeping anger and resentment in your heart is necessary for a long and peaceful life, do you understand?"
His grandmother's sincere advice made Alfred's eyes become heavy.
He pursed the corners of his lips, and said lightly, "I'll consider it, grandma."
Florence looked at the man's brows and sighed softly. "Son, your mind has been burdened by many things and you've been taking all the stress yourself all this time. I feel that you are very depressed. But don't worry, as long as it's what you want to do, I will definitely help you. And as for the future… Let's talk again sometime. By the way, that girl named Lilia... Do you have any other plans? Remember she's married, so even if you have a thing for her, you have to give up. "
Alfred's eyes shook, and he nodded softly. After all, he didn't say anything about Lilia.
Florence stared at him a little, and in the end, she just shook her head and sighed. "Don't disappoint Grandma..."
"Don't worry, I won't."
Florence advises a few more words. After that, her servants helped her back to the main building.
Alfred remained in place and saw his grandmother's back moving away, the expression on his face came out dark as the night sky.
...
The next day, two o'clock in the afternoon.
In the underground parking lot, Jean saw a familiar car and Chris' figure leaning against the car and smoking a cigarette.
The man looked down and looked at the ground, around four cigarette butts falling right at his feet.
Chris came in, half a cigarette in hand, joking, "Do you want to come back?"
He has been coming to his company for a long time but he finds out that this boy ran back to his house just to cook for Lilia during the day.
This guy is amazing indeed!
"What's wrong?" The man closed his car's door then Chris handed him a cigarette box. "Someone wants me to introduce you to him!"
The man took the cigarette box and took a stick. "Who?"
Chris didn't want to hide it and said bluntly, "His name is Ricky, the third son of the Ricardo family. You should've known him."
After hearing this name, Jean's eyes flickered. "What does he want?"
