When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 658 Drag Someone Down With Him

Cecilia couldn’t help but find it strange that they were going to Rainsworth Manor for dinner.

“Why so sudden?”

“To watch a show while getting a free meal,” Nathaniel replied without elaborating further.

Upon hearing that, Cecilia didn’t ask any more questions. She helped to change Elliot’s clothes. Then, the family of three went back to Rainsworth Manor by car.

At Rainsworth Manor where Niel resided, the man sat at the head of the room, his face as black as thunder.

Were it not for the fact that his great–grandson, Felix, was sitting next to him, he would have long since thrown a punch at Adrian.

Inside the living room, Derek and Velma were seated on either side of the room, while Adrian and Miranda were lectured while standing.

“Grandpa, I genuinely didn’t expect Imminence Corporation to give me a hard time at every turn. If it weren’t for it, I would have already dominated most of the market in Tudela long ago, Adrian continued to boast.

Niel was incredibly shrewd. Upon discovering that he had incurred losses of over a billion and was in debt, he immediately ordered an investigation.

While the new group buying was considered a novel project, there was absolutely no guarantee.

It was all about investing money into it.

“Back when Nathaniel managed Rainsworth Group, all the companies in Tudela sabotaged him. Why didn’t he suffer losses to the point of filing for bankruptcy? At the end of the day, it’s all because you’re incompetent!” Niel didn’t mince his words with Adrian.

Adrian’s expression darkened.

No matter how capable Nathaniel is, what good is he now that he’s blind? Could he still run a company in his condition? Even if he could do it, no one would respect him or be willing to let a blind man manage the company, no?

“I’m not the only one suffering losses, Grandpa. Why don’t you ask Nicholas? After he has taken. over Rainsworth Group, the company seems to be improving on the surface, but in reality, it’s also being suppressed by Imminence Corporation.”

Adrian was resolved to drag someone down with him if he were doomed.

Niel hadn’t been involved in the management of the company for over a decade. Hearing that, he frowned slightly.

“Nicholas has only been taken over the company for less than half a year, so it’s already achievement that he managed to gain the trust of the old–timers. How many years have you been in the company in comparison? Do you think you can compare to him?”

Adrian was rebuffed once again.

“From now on, just be a manager in Rainsworth Group. Stop establishing branch companies and making yourself a laughing stock,” Niel asserted.

While he would be a manager in title, in reality, he would be nothing more than an employee. Ast such, Adrian and Miranda would never be content with that.

Immediately, Miranda shot Felix a look.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Felix tugged at Niel’s hand. “Don’t be angry, Great–grandpa. When I grow up, I promise to earn the money back.”

After Niel heard his great–grandson’s confident voice, his mood improved significantly.

“Okay. I’ll wait for you to grow up, Felix. His face was a picture of affection.

Seeing that Niel’s mood had improved slightly, Miranda shot her parents a look.

Only then did Derek and Velma start in slight embarrassment, “Old Mr. Rainsworth.”

Niel turned to them and signaled them to speak their minds.

Velma shamelessly pleaded, “Could you please have Nicholas lend us a hand, Old Mr. Rainsworth? Recently, a lot of our stock sources have been cut off by Imminence Corporation. Even with money, we can’t get any goods. If this continues, we won’t be able to hold out for much longer.”

In actual fact, she didn’t speak the whole truth.

Not only were they unable to purchase goods, but they also had no money to buy any.

Besides, it wasn’t that they wouldn’t be able to hold out for much longer. Instead, they were on the brink of bankruptcy.

Niel was just about to respond when Nathaniel, Cecilia, and Elliot unexpectedly arrived.

When Cecilia walked through the door, she happened to overhear Derek and Velma’s words. Just a few days ago, they were beyond arrogant, demanding that their Eli kneel and apologize to their grandson. And now, they’re here to beg the Rainsworth family for help?

“Grandpa,” Nathaniel and Cecilia greeted.

Elliot also obediently did the same. “Great–grandpa.”

Although Niel was biased, he knew that he still had to keep up appearances.
