Chapter 212
Jetti Garden was another high–end villa area in Johnsonville. Although it was not as good as the location of South Maple Garden and had beautiful scenery, it was also a luxurious location that countless rich people wanted to buy.
When Drake brought Jane back to the villa, the lights were on, which made him a bit puzzled.
After both of them entered the room, they saw that the atmosphere in the room was odd, and the servants were also trembling.
As they sighted him, one of the servants whispered back to Charles,
“Sir, Mr Holbrook is back!”
Hearing this, Charles‘ already gloomy face became even darker. He paused, then looked at Jane and said lightly, “You go upstairs first!”
Jane is also a discerning person and understands that Charles does not want her to know about the conversation between him and his father. Nevertheless, she is not particularly interested in knowing.
She had heard about the Holbrook family’s situation before. It’s a mass.
The current leader of this family, Henry Holbrook, was a cruel person. When he was young, he was in multiple romantic relationships and had countless mistresses. Unfortunately, his wife ruled with
strictnes.
But after his wife died, Henry let himself loose. At this time, many of his mistresses came to him, and naturally, they brought his illegitimate children.
Among them, Charles Holbrook was the most famous.
Charles was very competent. Not long after he returned to the Holbrook family, he joined the Holbrook Group. With his own efforts, he gradually reached the position of CFO of the company.
Fame could also be poison. Now that he had reached this peak, it naturally attracted the attention of the rest of the Holbrook family.
Everyone outside said that he had made it through and became the family’s most likely successor of the Holbrook Corporation. However, he alone knew that at this point, he was walking on thin ice
about his future.
Recalling the past, Charles slowly walked into the living room. In the living room, Henry, the current leader of the Holbrook Family, was sitting on the sofa.
“Dad…” Charles walked closer, suppressed his breath, and called out.
“Come here!” His father’s voice was even lower and indifferent.
Charles slowly walked to Henry’s side and lowered his head.
Henry slowly stood up. Then, just before Charles could react, a slap landed on his face.
With all his might, Henry delivered a single slap that caused Charles to turn his head. When he faced forward again, a drop of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
Surprisingly, Charles still stood there straight with his head lowered, and he did not complain.
Henry’s ruthless eyes slowly fell on him, with a cold look and scrutiny, and then slowly spit out a word

from his mouth.
“You are so disappointing!”
“I’m sorry,” Charles said, but it was only three words short.
However, this answer did not satisfy his father as he still stared at him fiercely.
“Did I warn you not to provoke that kid from the Warner family? Look at what you have done. Now that the Holbrook Corporation has been suppressed by the Warner Corporation, countless suppliers have been cut off. Do you know the loss of my Corporation? How much it is?”
“Dad, I’ll find a way to save the Holbrook Corporation’s losses.” Charles lowered his head and replied.
“Save? How do you save? Do you think Drake Warner can only do this? Let me tell you, this is just the beginning. That kid in the thar family is just like his father. He has great ambitions. The idea of wanting our Corporation to disappear from Johnsonville forever, coupled with the Holbrook Corporation’s current situation, it is impossible to compete with Warner Corporation. How do you plan to salvage things?”
Henry’s aggressive questioning drowned Charles‘ words.
“In the future, you don’t need to worry about the company’s affairs,” Henry said coldly.
Hearing this, Charles raised his head in disbelief and looked at his so–called father before him.
“Dad, this is not good. Without my presence in the company, it would be even more impossible to compete with Warner Corp.”
“Oh, you are too arrogant to say this. Do you think that you are the only one supporting the Holbrook Corporation? I think that If it wasn’t for your silly mistake, the Holbrook Corporation would not be suppressed by the Warner Corporation. Without you, I’ll be able to turn the corner.”
At this moment, another man sitting on the other side of the sofa laughed lightly and spoke slowly.
The person who spoke was the eldest son of the Holbrook family from the legal wife of the Holbrook family. Hector Holbrook was even more famous in the city.
If it weren’t for Hector’s dissolute, the other illegitimate children of the Holbrook family would not have had the chance to enter the family’s gate, or even hold important positions in the family.
However, no matter how reckless he was, Hector was the eldest son of the family and his mother’s rightful position could not be underestimated. He still held a strong spot in Henry’s heart.
Compared to the other Holbrook family members who were also born illegitimately, Hector was Charles’s worst enemy, and the two have never been on good terms.
Charles‘ eyes darkened as he saw that Hector was about to stir up trouble.
“I can just stand by and watch. I just don’t know if brother has a solution in the face of the Warner Corporation’s suppression. Charles also responded coldly to his brother’s words.
Hearing this, Hector looked indifferent as he slowly stood up and walked to Henry’s side with a provocative smile on his face.
“Dad, my uncle said that when the Holbrook Corporation is in such a big crisis, as my mother’s family. they can’t just die in this crisis. Thus, they deliberately transferred five million to me, allowing me to temporarily alleviate our crisis by giving it to you.”
Hearing this, Henry looked at Hector with his gloomy eyes, revealing a somewhat satisfied expression.
“Well, thank your uncle. When the Holbrook Corporation’s crisis is over, I’ll treat them as a thank you.”
“Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll pass it on to your uncle.”
Charles‘ eyes had long since turned darkened. Hector’s background was no match for him. The only person he could rely on was himself.
“Dad, why don’t you let me go to the Holbrook Corporation to reverse the crisis? I have learned a lot from my uncle over the years, so I don’t think I can turn the crisis around for the Holbrook Corporation.”
Henry pondered for a moment, then took a deep look at Charles and finally nodded.
“Mmm.”
Hearing Henry’s agreement, Charles‘ heart sank to the bottom.
This was his so–called father. He was unwilling to even look at him when he was worthless.
“Dad, you agreed, but I don’t think someone agrees.” Hector coldly glanced at Charles and saw the gloom in his eyes.
