Chapter 695: Chapter 691: Internal strife in the Lewis Family, siblings in conflict
After looking at Roy’s data, Mason Lilliput had basically made up his mind to cooperate with him.
However, he still had some doubts in his heart.
“I’ve heard before that the management of Lewis Group and The Lewis’ Village is separate, with no interference or involvement with each other. In other words, the village’s industries are the village’s source of income, and as descendants of the Lewis family, you usually don’t get involved in the operation of the village industries.”
Aldo Lewis handed the iPad in his hand, “Mr. Lilliput, isn’t this the best evidence?”
Mason Lilliput was always cautious, so he shook his head.
“One shop does not represent much.”
Aldo immediately replied, “That’s why I brought Alexander Lewis over, isn’t it?”
Mason Lilliput laughed, “Both Alexander Lewis and you have the same status. The natives won’t be willing if you take their source of livelihood away.”
Aldo was in no hurry.
“Alexander and I are indeed different. He knows some real skills. If it weren’t for my second brother being harmed by the doctor, and having a grudge with the doctor, he would’ve eventually been promoted by my father.”
Mason Lilliput had also heard that Alexander Lewis had been removed from the line of inheritance by Mr. Lewis.
But he didn’t take it seriously and didn’t inquire about the truth.
“Was Alexander really removed by the old man?”
Aldo smiled, “Yes, he was removed, so I say, heaven helps us! With his help, I’m not worried about the affairs of these hundreds of shops.”
Mason Lilliput was not familiar with Alexander Lewis, so he thought he should inquire more about him later.
“Can he really make peace with the villagers?”
Aldo nodded, “The villagers are not foolish. They will not refuse profitable businesses. But such businesses need a leader whom they can trust, and Alexander is that person.”
After listening to his long speech, Mason Lilliput’s heart began to grow hopeful.
“Alright, let’s find a day to discuss the follow-up matters together.”
They continued talking in the club until late at night…
…
As for Mr. Lewis, he was finally discharged from the hospital after nearly a week of recuperation.
Richelle Dunn went to the hospital early to pick him up and bring him home.
However, the old man insisted on returning to the old house.
Richelle couldn’t understand, “Grandpa, how can we feel at ease if you go back to the old house?”
But the old man was very persistent. He raised three fingers and said,
“Three days. I will only go back for three days. Once I settle some matters, I will return to join my little great-grandchildren.”
Richelle couldn’t convince him, so she had no choice but to call Roy Lewis.
She thought Roy would agree with her. Instead, he said after listening to her,
“If Grandpa wants to go back for three days, let him. We will pick him up again after three days.”
Richelle had no choice but to let Mr. Lewis return to the old house with the old housekeeper.
Once Mr. Lewis got home, he told the old housekeeper,
“Call my second daughter-in-law and tell her to come back with Alexander!”
It was naturally known to the old housekeeper that Alexander had been beaten up by Richelle’s bodyguards.
“Mr. Lewis, I’m afraid it’s not convenient for Alexander right now, is it? ”
However, Mr. Lewis knew that Richelle was always very measured in her actions.
“Don’t worry, I’m sure he’ll survive!”
The old housekeeper had no choice but to make the call.
A little later, the second Mrs. Lewis pushed Alexander back to the old house in a wheelchair. As soon as she saw Mr. Lewis, she fell to the ground and started crying.
“Father, you have to support us. Sebastian has been arrested, and now Alexander has been bullied like this.”
With tears and snot running down her face, the second Mrs. Lewis complained about Richelle’s “evil deeds.”
Mr. Lewis gave the housekeeper a glance, and the nanny came over to help the weeping second Mrs. Lewis to a single sofa.
Alexander pushed himself in, not addressing Mr. Lewis, and stubbornly looked at the old man with resentment and anger in his eyes that he didn’t bother to hide.
“Sister-in-law, Sebastian’s arrest was taken by the police with evidence. Alexander used to live a comfortable life, but he insists on bullying others. As a grandfather, I saw him harming his own family with my own eyes. If I don’t stop him, it would be my fault.”
The second Mrs. Lewis was normally less talkative, but in her heart, she was even more hateful and resentful toward others.
“Father, what kind of family does that little doctor belong to? She and Roy haven’t even gotten married yet, how can she be considered a member of the Lewis family?”
Mr. Lewis heard her words, which were the same as Sebastian and Alexander’s arguments.
Some strictness appeared in Mr. Lewis’ eyes.
“Sister-in-law, have you forgotten that you were pregnant with Alexander before you got married? If I were to go by your standards, I could have easily kicked you out.”
Out of Sebastian’s siblings, only Roy’s father was a committed and faithful person, while Sebastian, James Lewis, and Aldo all had promiscuous tendencies.
At the time, Sebastian had more than one girlfriend.
It was the second Mrs. Lewis who, while pregnant with Alexander, found Mr. Lewis and convinced him to make Sebastian marry her!
But the second Mrs. Lewis was thick-faced, having been a daughter-in-law for so long, she felt superior to others.
“Father, how can this be the same?”
