Chapter 199
It was late autumn and winter was coming soon. H City was getting cold. It was only about ten degrees
in the evening. Ordinary people had to wear coats to stay warm.
But Tom was still wearing a short-sleeved shirt. He didn't feel cold at all. He walked alone on the street,
attracting a lot of people's attention. Most people thought he was pretending. He was wearing thin
clothes in such a cold day.
He taught Zion a lesson today. It was an accident. He didn't expect to meet Zion there. It could be
assumed easily that Zion must sneak to Owen by now.
He had no feelings about this. Originally, he and Owen were already against each other and there was
no possibility of reconciliation. Even without the issue between him and Zion, there would be a war
between him and Owen sooner or later. And it was likely to happen at this family meeting, so he didn't
care about Zion at all.
He took a deep breath and let out all the gloom in his heart. Then he inhaled deeply and suddenly felt
refreshed.
At the same time, in the Howards's yard, a group of people from the Howards were plotting.
"Master, are we really going to invite Tom back to the family? He probably hates us to death now."
"That's right, Master. After what happened four years ago, we kicked Tom out of the Howards. He
would never forgive us."
"Besides, Tom is now the uxorilocal son-in-law of the Scotts. If we take Tom back, it will ruin our
reputation."
Tomorrow was the family meeting, and all the influential members of the Howards would gather
together to discuss many issues. The main topic was whether to take Tom back to the Howards. Most
of them were against the decision, and a small number said they should take Tom back.
"I think it's still necessary to take Tom back. In any case, Tom inherited more than 50 billion dollars from
the Old Master and took 70 % assets away, which made us seriously hurt!"
"Yes, as long as Tom is back to the Howards as the Second Young Master. I believe that Tom is still
willing to give that 50 billion dollars if we reason him with heart. No matter what, he's the blood of the
Howards."
"As long as the 50 billion dollars Tom owned comes back, we can still kick Tom out if we want."
"Are you kidding me? Don't you know how capable Tom is. Even Owen Howard has been no match for
him since he was a child. If we take him back, I'm afraid it's not easy to get rid of him."
"Hoho, your worry is not necessary . No matter how powerful Tom is, so what? He is alone. We have
the entire the Howards. How can we be afraid of him? Besides, we could have chased him out of the
Howards like a dog four years ago, and why could we do the same thing four years later!"
They had a heated discussion. The conservatives didn't think it should be that haste to bring Tom back.
It was bringing disaster upon ourselves, and Tom would most likely turn against them. There were also
quite a number of radical people who felt that they could totally take Tom back. Tom should not to be
afraid at all. When they had "tricked" Tom to get that 50 billion dollars, they could still kick him away.
There was no problem at all.
The same thing was that none of them treated Tom as their close family, full of hostility and rejection.
At this moment, a voice rang out, "Why can't we take Tom back? After all, he's also the Howards's
blood, and Tom is a pure child. As long as we apologize to him sincerely, I believe he won't hate us."
With a swish, everyone looked at the elder in the corner.
Everyone frowned and expressed their displeasure. Michael said in a low voice, "Third uncle, are you
too old and confused? Tom was born to be rebellious. He's very much like his dead mother. If we really
let him back, after he grows strong he will destroy us."
Then, Michael's face darkened in a deeper tone, "Everyone, don't forget who Tom's mother is! Now
Tom doesn't know his mother's real identity, but once he finds out, do you think Tom will still regard the
Howards as his home?"
As this sentence fell, everyone held their breath. When they thought of something, fear flashed across
their faces...
At this moment, a tall figure strode in from the door and followed a few people behind him.
"That weak Tom could scare you guys like this? Hmph!"
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes looked towards the door. It was Owen who had walked in arrogant
manner. His face was flamboyant and disdainful, and his eyes swept across everyone, full of strong
aura.
When everyone saw him come in, they all quieted down, including Michael. His originally vigorous aura
suddenly weakened a lot, and was suppressed by Owen.
Owen walked in quickly, directly to Samuel and called out respectfully, "Father!"
Originally, Samuel was only his uncle, but after his father, died, he was adopted by Samuel as his son
and then Owen became the Eldest Young Master of the Howards.
He was also the first in line to inherit the next head of the Howards.
Samuel looked at Owen, who was respectful in front of him. The corner of his mouth rose slightly and
he gave a proud smile. He liked Owen in his bones and was proud of him.
"Owen Howard, it's good that you're back." Samuel took Owen's hand and let him sit down beside him.
He was very thrilled. Even to his own son, Michael, he had never been that happy.
Owen said, "Father, Tom is too weak to be afraid. Tomorrow is the family meeting. If he really dares to Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
come over, I will let him obediently give up the 50 billion dollars inheritance!"
"Okay! I trust you!" Samuel patted Owen hard on the shoulder, full of confidence in Owen.
Indeed, in the past two or three years, Owen had never let him down.
With Owen's words, the expression of dozens of people present were obviously much more relaxed.
Not only Samuel was happy with Owen, but they were the same. There was no other way. In the past
two or three years, Owen acted too dazzlingly, completely shadowing Michael. Now Owen was worthy
of being the Eldest Young Master of the Howards.
Next, a group of the Howards members discussed some details and then the meeting was over.
The next day, Tom came to the family meeting on time.
