Chapter 495
Therefore, Eileen knew it was crucial to remind them of Brandon’s grave misdeeds, including the role he played in the death of Bryan’s mother.
“Everyone, I admit I failed in disciplining Brandon. I raised someone capable of such cruelty. For years, I clung to a thread of maternal love, hoping not to push him too far. He is pitiful, indeed, but what I nurtured is a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” Stella said, her voice trembling. Her gaze was fixed on the defeated Brandon lying on the floor.
Throughout these years, she had hoped that Brandon would eventually recognize his mistakes. But Brandon’s decision to withdraw medical treatment for Bryan’s mother had directly caused her untimely death. Stella had believed this act would awaken his conscience.
The truth was that Brandon, overwhelmed by his own losses, had never found the path to redemption.
“If he remains among us, there’s no telling how much more havoc he could wreak. With all of you as my witnesses, it’s time we make a definitive decision,” Stella declared.
With nods of agreement from those gathered and the removal of Brandon’s name from the Dawson family records, the matter was finally settled.
“I promise to restore Apex Group to its former glory and ensure the Dawson family’s prosperity,” Bryan asserted.
“What about EB Group…” someone whispered.
Eileen was considering saying that she could return EB Group to Bryan, keeping it within the Dawson family’s holdings. However, before she could speak, Bryan interjected with a displeased tone, “EB Group belongs to Eileen!”
He had diligently managed Apex Group in the past, substantially supporting the Dawson family. Now, having joined the Curtis family, he felt it was only fair to give something back to them.
Upon hearing this, the room fell silent. No one dared to bring up the subject of EB Group again.
The family collectively agreed to remove Brandon, Lydia, and Travis from the Dawson family records. They then recorded a brief video officially declaring Brandon’s expulsion from the Dawson family and the reclamation of all his shares in Apex Group. These shares were to be transferred to Bryan, who became the new leader of the Dawson family.
Finally, Bryan, now the new leader of the Dawson family, delivered a speech.
He began by committing to secure future dividends for the Dawson family. He then took a moment to introduce his wife. “This is Eileen. We married nine years ago.
We faced some misunderstandings, separated, and have now reunited.
“Today, I formally announce that I’ve married into the Curtis family, and…”
He stopped, then gestured toward Eileen. “You say it.”
