Chapter 715

Jasmine didn’t even look at the food and said flatly, “I don’t want to see that person.”
Then, she suddenly got off the bed, grabbed Grace’s hand, and said, “Grace, what do you think Casper wants to do? When Preston left, Brian was still in junior high school. Despite many people eyeing the company, Casper didn’t come back to help! In the end, Brian carried everything on his own to save the Francis Group, and now he wants that illegitimate son to move in! He even wants that bastard to be the general manager! Why does he have the right?”
Jasmine became more and more agitated as she spoke. Towards the end, her voice choked. “Do you know how much Brian has suffered? That bastard’s childhood was much happier than Brian’s! Preston also left that mistress and her son many properties! Why should he enter the Francis family? Why?”
Grace bent down and hugged Jasmine. “Mom, don’t get worked up. I promise you, I will keep an eye on Nelson and won’t let him succeed, Okay?”
Jasmine wiped her tears and sighed, “I just feel so sorry for my son. He’s faced too much injustice.
“If Casper really dares to let that bastard threaten Brian’s position in the Francis Group, I will never let him off!”
After all, Preston was dead, and she was only showing Casper respect because of Brian. If Casper didn’t care about Brian, she had no reason to be polite to Casper.

The next morning, many people sat around the dining table.
Casper sat at the head, smiling at Nelson, then glanced at Brian, saying, “Brian, you’re the elder brother. Later, you’ll take Nelson to get familiar with the company’s operations.”
Brian ate his food without saying a word.
Casper frowned, displeased, and knocked on the table heavily. “Brian, I’m talking to you. Are you listening?”
“Is it necessary? After Dad left, I figured it out all by myself. No one could help me.
I think some people shouldn’t take on tasks beyond their abilities,” Brian said.
Casper was left speechless by the retort.
Nelson smiled and said, “Brian is
right. I will learn from him well
strive to catch up with his pace et as possible.” Content t
soon
His words seemed to imply something.
Grace and Jasmine both looked up at him sternly.
Suddenly, Brian dropped his fork. “I’m done eating.”
“I’ll take you to the company. I’ll wait in the car for you,” he said to Grace.
Without eating much, Grace also put down her fork. Nelson, who was sitting opposite her, finished at the
same time and stood up. “Grace,
let’s go together.”
Grace furrowed her brows slightly, lowered her eyelids, took her bag, and walked ahead.
Nelson smiled faintly, politely bid farewell to Casper, then jogged to catch up with Grace.
“Grace, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me.” Nelson called out from behind. Grace paused for a moment, then continued walking. Nelson quickly caught up with her and walked beside her.
“You’ve achieved your goal. I hope you won’t do anything excessive,” Grace said.

Nelson frowned slightly, looking somewhat hurt. “Why do you think I’m being excessive? I’m Preston’s son. Everything in the Francis family should be half mine, right?
Grace glanced at him sideways, her gaze becoming stern. “So, are you going to
fight Brian for the family fortune?”
