Of course, he also knew how powerful his grandpa Zachary was. If it came to confrontation, he would surely be defeated.
But, he still had a bargaining chip: himself.
No matter how great his grandpa’s influence was or how strict he was with him, the only thing he could not overcome was their blood relationship.
Fifteen years ago, Zachary lost his beloved wife and son overnight. It was Baron Stuart and his granddaughter Bella who supported him and helped him survive. At that time, one of them was thirteen years old, and the other was only three.
Facing the sudden shock, Zachary almost collapsed. In the end, for the sake of his grandchildren and the Futuren Group, he picked himself back up.
These years, he fought hard for his only grandson, Baron Stuart. If he lost this grandson, he would definitely collapse completely!
This sentence clearly threatened Zachary as well.
After leaving this threat, Baron Stuart took Emily Walker and left the office.
He didn’t want to threaten his beloved grandpa, but he couldn’t help it. He didn’t want to lose the woman in front of him.
Zachary was stunned by his words, and for a while, he couldn’t find words to say, just watching his grandson leave.
“You—Baron!” This time, he was really feeling pain in his chest from the anger.
“Grandpa!” Seeing him holding his chest, Camila Walker quickly stepped forward to help him. “Grandpa, what’s wrong?”
Zachary took a deep breath and somewhat calmed down. He waved his hand and said, “I’m fine.”
He couldn’t help looking up, wondering how deep his grandson’s infatuation with that little girl was, to the point of defying him?
Although he had handed over the control of the Futuren Group to his beloved grandson, he should also know that with just one word from him, he would have nothing.
Was he really willing to risk everything to protect that girl?
Zachary’s line of sight remained fixed on the direction of the office entrance as he seemed lost in thought.
Emily was dragged by Baron Stuart out of the office. When she looked back, she noticed Zachary holding his chest.
Baron was 28 years old, so his grandpa might be in his seventies or eighties, right?
From the moment they stepped into the elevator, leaving the Futuren Group, until they sat in the car, Baron was deep in thought, his face expressionless.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Emily glanced at his emotionless face and remembered Zachary still in the office. When Baron had dragged her away, it seemed to have angered him.
Looking at him, she spoke softly, “Baron.”
Only when he heard her voice did he regain his thoughts. His hand gripping the steering wheel, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye and replied in a low voice, “Hmm.”
“It seems like your words just now angered your grandpa…”
Hearing this, Baron didn’t care. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth, looked at her, and said, “Don’t worry about him. He may be old, but he’s always been strong. There’s no need to be concerned.”
As his voice fell, Baron’s brow furrowed as if he had suddenly thought of something. He turned to look at her and asked, “Are you… worried about my grandpa?”
Realizing the implication of his words, Emily’s face turned red in an instant. She quickly averted her gaze and said with guilt, “No! I just… just… ”
She was worried about him because he was an old man, not because he was Baron’s grandpa.
Seeing her suddenly blushing face, Baron slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, but didn’t tease her any further.
“He’s your own grandpa, after all. I just feel that you don’t have to—”
“Squeak”
A sudden brake sound, and Baron slammed on the brake. He turned his head, looking serious, and said, “Emily.”
