Chapter 458
Back at the Crestfall Manor, the family meeting continued.
“Luna…” Belarus felt bad for his granddaughter. “You have suffered a lot because of this. From now on, I will put you in charge of the Medical Society’s project. You have full control over it.”
“As for all of you…” Belarus then scanned over the others and warned them, “Never do or say anything that will divide us! Work together and bring New Moon Corporation to better heights.”
No one dared to voice any disagreement after what happened to Dick and Colin.
“I understand, Father.”
“We will support Luna with everything we can.”
“It’s our wish to bring the company to new heights.”
Everyone nodded and adhered in agreement.
Seeing their reaction, Belarus nodded in relief. He did not wish for something similar to happen again.
“Father.” Harry then brought Zenith to Belarus, wanting to introduce the young man. “This is Zenith Mangold, the young master from the Mangolds from the capital. It was him that we were able to get over this crisis.”
Since Belarus supported and arranged the marriage between Andrius and Luna, Harry did not mention Zenith proposing to Luna earlier.
Zenith said politely, “Grandfather Belarus.”
Belarus nodded with just a hum.
After Simon–Tooke, the Millers, and the Kerrs, Belarus did not have a good impression of the rich families from the capital anymore, hence the frosty reaction.
Harry was worried that Zenith would be too eager to present himself and reveal his feelings for Luna, hence making Belarus unhappy and ruining his secret plan.
Therefore, after a brief introduction, Harry pulled Zenith away and walked out to the gate.
At the gate of the estate, Harry said, “Young Master Mangold, I really have to thank you for this. If not for you, Luna might have… She might…”
Harry sounded passionate. He was very satisfied with Zenith as a wealthy young master. Where would he find another perfect son–in–law if he missed this one?
“Uncle Harry, you don’t need to be so courteous with me.” Zenith then went along with the flow and smiled. “We are going to be family soon, so you can just call me Zenith.”
“Hahaha!” Harry laughed and nodded happily. “Great! Great! This is awesome! But…”
He thought of the brief meeting between Belarus and Zenith. He explained, “Zenith, my father arranged Luna and Andrius‘ marriage, so we have to think this over.”
Zenith was struck by a realization.
“I understand,” he said with a nod. “Uncle Harry, don’t worry. I will use my actions to convince Grandfather Belarus and make him look at me differently.”
Zenith was confident in himself.
The Mangolds were influential in the capital and barely had any rivals there. He believed that by coming to Sumeria, his name would grant him a natural advantage over the locals.
Except for a handful of wealthy local families, he took no one seriously.
The other family members came out.
“Young Master Mangold, you are such a talented person. With just a little push, you can achieve big things, and our grandfather will definitely prefer you over the guy from the mountains.”
“Yeah, Young Master Mangold!”
“Everyone knows your name and respects it!”
The others continued to flatter him, except for Luna with her long face. She was still thinking about the Wolf King.
Swoosh!
An electric bike stopped in front of the estate.
Andrius was back.
Harry preferred Zenith over Andrius now, so whenever Andrius came into his sight, it irritated him.
“Andrius!” Harry sneered at him, “I thought you said you would deal with Timothy Kerr’s
incident by midnight today. Where were you during that critical moment? From today onwards
