Supreme Mars

Chapter 288 The Story of the Richest Man

Lane sent them downstairs in person. After watching them go away, his lips curled a cold smile and

returned to his office.

He showed a dark smile when sitting on his seat as the chairman.

“Hahaha…Hahaha!”

“Idiot, what an idiot to fall in my trap!”

Gradually, the sound of his laugh turned from dark to high. He even laughed out tears. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The elder in white hair observed him quietly and asked with a smile, “What thing is so funny, Mr.

Watts?”

“Reggie, you’re the alien minister of the HY Business Association. Can’t you tell the secret in it?”

Lane got enough laugh and turned to look at the elder in white hair with a delighted smile.

Alan and Justin must get astonished if they found out the identity of this elder man because alien

minister was even more prestigious than a senior member.

Those people took activities alone and they didn’t belong to any association. They could enjoy all

members privileges by simply adding their name in HY Business Association. Besides, it was rare to be

an alien minister. If one didn’t own a great power, the association wouldn’t entitle them as alien

minister.

“Reggie, this game looks fair, but I have an approach to win.”

Lane carried a wry smile and noted, “Although I don’t know the original members of the board, my

grandfather really has a close relation with them. It is extremely easy for me to gain their support with

my grandfather’s introduction. Leo won’t get any vote!”

However, Reggie showed a calm smile and remarked, “Mr. Watts, it’s a good thing to be confident, but

don’t look down upon anyone. This is my piece of advice for you.”

“I get it, Reggie.”

Although Lane agreed with his words, he still didn’t take his advice seriously in his mind.

What could a man who relied on his wife do?

Leo went back to the car with Justin and Alan followed him to get on.

However, Justin and Alan were carried with anxious look and both seemed to be confused.

“Boss, why do you promise him to play the game? You can directly take over the position.”

Alan also remarked, “Yes, boss. This game must be advantageous to him if he puts forward to play it.

Maybe he will cheat…”

Leo knew what Alan and Justin tried to convey. However, he still smiled calmly and replied, “I

understand your meaning.”

“Then why do you…”

Both Justin and Alan got confused.

Leo didn’t reply but looked at the direction of the gradually darkening sky with meaningful smile.

“Alan, you must hate Lane a lot.”

Alan got startled when hearing his words. Justin also showed Leo a strange look and didn’t say

anything.

Alan changed into a serious and gloomy look.

Through the dim reflection of the back mirror, Alan could notice Leo’s deep gaze was resting on him.

After a long time, Alan finally nodded.

“I hate him.”

“I can provide you with a chance to take revenge, but the perquisite is that I have to understand your

reasons.” Leo replied calmly.

Alan was absorbed in a long time of silence. His expression was struggling. However, when meeting

Leo’s calm eyes, he still sighed helplessly.

It seemed he had to tell him the truth today.

“Mr. Cohen, thank you so much.”

Alan showed a complex expression when looking at Leo, “You are the must considerate boss I have

ever met.”

Alan could tell Leo agreed with Lane’s bet because of him…It was true that Leo could force Lane to

leave the J Group. However, in that way, Lane would only be chased out from the J Group without

receiving any punishment.

However, Leo decided to get into Lane’s trap. As long as he won the bet, he could make Lane pay a

blood price. Leo was taking a revenge for Alan.

Leo still looked calm with no fluctuation in his eyes, conveying that he accepted Alan’ thanks.

Alan sighed when looking at the scenery outside and remarked, “My past experience is complex.

Hence, I will try to make it brief. The problem is that I always treat the Watts family as my family, but

they never regard me as theirs.”

“What do you mean?” Leo slightly frowned.

“Mr. Cohen, I think you must understand this feeling…There exists no family love in the prestigious

families.”

Alan showed a complex look as he noted, “The Watts family’s doctrine was different with other families.

They encouraged us to compete when we were little. We had to win everything on our own and we

would get beaten if we failed behind…It happens from our childhood to our working days, and even our

life.”

“The one who runs slowly will have nothing to eat for dinner. Our parents won’t blame the one who is

bullied, but will praise the bully for being more powerful. Meanwhile, they will also beat the losers and

blame for their weakness.”

“This thing happens among children and also among adults. Everyone will try their must to eliminate

others to win the limited resources in the family. There is no love to maintain our family. It is common

thing for siblings and even brothers and sisters to frame up each other.”

“I use to be the weakest person in my family and got bullied the worst.”

Hearing Alan’s words, both Leo and Justin showed sharp and sympathetic look.

They never expected the richest man in Emerdale would have such a miserable past.

A sentence suddenly emerged in Leo’s mind: To be strong is your fortune and to be weak is your sin.

“Then what happened?” Justin asked.

Alan smiled in a self-mocking manner as he continued, “The weak don’t even have the right to choose

their own life. My life is given out as a trading stake by my family. They let me to leave without providing

me any fortune and send me to marry into a prestigious family.

“At that time, I already found my love. For the first time, I went against their decision and left the

Hopkins with my wife sneakily, but we got assassinated on the way.”

“What happened next?”

Leo asked in a deep voice. His tone was carried with a sense of killing intent.

It was his first time to have murderous intent to a family he didn’t know much.

Alan looked calm and continued, “How can I go against the Watts family alone? Soon, we got chased.

Not only did I get hurt, but also my pregnant wife was injured.”

“Luckily, our child didn’t get hurt. I tried my best to save my wife to run to Emerdale. However, my wife

died after she gave birth to the child. On the moment she died, I swore I would take revenge to the

Watts family.”

Alan’s tone was calm, but Leo could sense that it was carried with a great hatred.

The Watts family was pathological. Not only did they manipulate his life, but also killed his wife.

Although he was born and grew up in the Watts family, he still held a huge hatred towards it.

“When my daughter was three years old, the Watts family found me again. I got lost with my daughter

when I was running away. However, I haven’t found her until now. My career started surging at that

time. I was picked out by the HY Business Association, but it was not what I wanted. My biggest wish is

to find my daughter.”

Speaking of this, the rims of Alan’s eyes turned red and he started to choke.

Justin didn’t say anything but petted his shoulders with great strength to comfort him.

Leo suddenly asked, “Do you have your daughter’s photo?”

It was easy for Leo to find someone with his power.

“Yes.”

Alan took out a wrinkled photo and remarked, “She is my daughter.”

Leo took over the photo and found this little girl looked familiar.

After thinking for a while, Leo suddenly called out a name, “Lizzie?!” lightnoveldaily.com
