rk quickly pressed the call button next to Richard’s hospital bed.


    A nurse rushed in to check on Richard’s condition and immediately ushered everyone out of the room, cing him on a breathing machine.


    Outside the hospital room, rk red at Victor Owen “Mr. Owen, you’vee to watch the Sumner family’s misfortune long enough. My grandfather has fainted because of your provocation. Can <i>you </i>please leave now?!”


    Seeing rk’s angry re, Victor chuckled. “I didn’te to witness the Sumner family’s joke. I came to remind your grandfather not to dig his own grave while still living. It would ruin his entire life’s work.”


    rk scoffed. “This is the Sumner family’s business. It’s not your ce to meddle!”


    Victor shrugged, remaining unfazed. He simply shook his head and said, “You’re nowhere near as capable as Damon.”


    With that, he left.


    rk stared at Victor’s retreating figure, anger shing in his eyes as he clenched his fists at his sides.


    Everyone said he was inferior to Damon. He would prove them wrong–he was no weaker than Damon!


    After several hours on the breathing machine, Richard finally regained consciousness. Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    The nurse cautioned rk that no one should provoke Richard again, or his condition could worsen.


    rk nodded grimly. “Understood.”


    Before long, Cyrus and Cindy rushed in, both looking anxious.


    Cyrus frowned at rk and snapped, “rk, dog


    bashing you!


    “Several shareholders from the Sumner Group take over thepany!”


    rk’s face darkened.


    you have any idea what’s going on online? People are


    Ven privately discussing pulling out their shares if you


    He pulled Cyrus outside the room and asked, “Dad, how much money do you have on hand right now?” “About seven to eight million dors. Why?” Cyrus replied.


    rk took a deep breath and said, “I need you to give me that money. I’m going to buy the shares from


    them.”


    A flicker of hesitation crossed Cyrus‘ eyes.


    He asked doubtfully, “Are you sure? That amount might only get us about 1% of the shares. It won’t do


    much…”


    Moreover, that was all he had avable. If he gave it all to rk and he couldn’t take over the Sumner


    Group, it would be a wasted effort.


    Noticing Cyrus‘ reluctance, rk spoke softly. “Dad, think about it. Ever since Grandpa fainted, neither Damon nor Brandon has bothered to check on him. Surely, Grandpa can see their true colors now.”


    He then dered, “In the future, his entire inheritance will definitely go to us. A few million now is nothing. Just help me out this once, and I promise to pay you back!”


    After some consideration, Cyrus finally agreed. “Fine. I’ll transfer the money to you shortly.”


    “Don’t worry. I’ll pay you back tenfold!” rk promised


    As Cyrus looked at him, he hesitated to speak. He had reviewed rk’s past mistakes in Damon’s statement. Anyone with a bit of business sense wouldn’t have made those errors, but rk had made every one of them.


    This showed he wasn’t cut out for managing apany.


    If Damon were his real brother, Cyrus would have stopped rk frompeting with him for thepany. However, he didn’t want to see the Sumner Group fall into the hands of someone outside the family!


    Lost in thought, Cyrus failed to notice the flicker of malice in rk’s eyes.


    Before long, Cyrus transferred the money from his bank ount to rk.
