Nathan Land’s scarred face was truly terrifying, making the maid cry in fear.
"Master, I beg of you, forgive me this time, I won’t do it again next time,..."
"Someone, drag her out, whichever hand caused the trouble, that hand doesn’t need to be kept!" Nathan Land’s face was somewhat violent, two men came forward and took the maid away, she cried loudly, but not a single face showed sympathy, they just woodenly performed their tasks.
Colton Morton noticed Asher Land standing at the door, immediately stood up, his face beaming.
"Asher, we were just talking about you, and here you are."
"Oh? What were you saying about me?" Asher Land raised an eyebrow, feigning ignorance. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI[F]ire.net
Nathan Land and Colton Morton exchanged a glance, Asher Land naturally knew what they were thinking. It seems they reached some sort of deal behind his back.
"Asher, you’re not young anymore, don’t you have the slightest thought of marriage? Brother Land has three sons, and none of you want to get married, Brother Land would be very disappointed."
Indeed, Nathan Land’s three sons, Oscar Land swore to never marry after his legs were crippled by a woman, Luke Land was inherently promiscuous, refusing to hang from one tree, only Asher Land remained unreadable...
In the eyes of these three, Colton Morton naturally favored Asher Land the most, young and talented, a perfect match for Irene Morton.
"You don’t have to worry about it for now, I truly have no plans for marriage." Asher Land said this sincerely, with no sign he was evading or concealing.
"Even if you don’t marry, it’s fine to arrange the marriage first." Colton Morton was at this juncture, unwilling to leave things halfway, "I just discussed it with Brother Land, we think you and Irene are quite compatible..."
"You think?" Asher Land’s voice remained calm, "I don’t think so."
"What kind of talk is that?" Nathan Land slammed the teacup onto the table, causing some tea to splatter.
"Just speaking the truth."
"You!..." Nathan Land grabbed the teacup and threw it at Asher Land, indeed, since he hadn’t grown up by his side, this nature was already set, no matter how he taught him, he would never listen.
"Brother Land, don’t be angry, Asher might just not have thought about it yet, let him spend more time with Irene, maybe they’ll develop feelings for each other..." Colton Morton played peacemaker from the side.
Nathan Land cast a cold glance at Asher Land without speaking.
He didn’t come here today to fall out with the old man, he needed to make things clear regarding what Enzo Land wanted to do to him.
"The Golden Era Consortium is on a rising trend in Asia, I will spare no effort to expand and strengthen Golden Era’s name, I hope you won’t listen to Uncle’s slander and recall me to headquarters. I have absolutely no disloyal intentions towards Golden Era and will not separate myself from it."
He knew, now Nathan Land and Enzo Land were both wary of him, Nathan Land was a cunning fox, naturally wouldn’t easily believe him just because of some loyal words.
"It’s easy to say, won’t you take some concrete actions to prove your words?" Nathan Land, leaning on his dragon-headed cane, paced his way in front of him.
"How should I prove it to you?"
