Chapter 117 I Won’t Take Your Advice
Cole spread out his hands helplessly and looked at Gerald with a half-smile.
Cole was very pretentious. He had been very pretentious since Gerald could remember.
In the Kenneth family, Cole was the eldest among the third generation of direct descendants. He grew
up with nothing but money Since he was the first successor of the Kenneth family, he had been used to
being arrogant. He never treated anyone with respect.
Also, Cole was quite capable. He was three years older than Gerald. Gerald entered school at eighteen
years old. Meanwhile, Cole was twenty-one years old, and he was already a graduate student in one of
the top five schools in the world.
Cole skipped grades since he was a child. He had a perfect academic performance.
Gerald was also a good student when he was a child. In addition, Mason was very capable at that time,
so Gerald was valued by the Kenneth family a lot. Gerald was raised to be Cole’s right-hand
man.
Gerald belonged to a branch of the Kenneth family, so he might be allowed to be in charge of some
companies, but the Kenneth family would never let him inherit the family’s shares. Gerald was only on
their payroll.
Therefore, Cole always felt superior to Gerald ever since they were kids.
Cole was even more arrogant right now. He despised Gerald thoroughly, which could be told from the
way he looked at Gerald and his tone.
Gerald looked at Cole, exhaled, walked over, and wanted to open the car door.
“My car is not for someone like you.” Cole stood in front of the car. Then he said indifferently. “They will
be waiting for you in Splendor Restaurant. Take a taxi there yourself. I will be waiting. for you at the
entrance of Splendor Restaurant. Only my father is generous enough to let you go to such a high-end
restaurant.”
After that, he opened the car door and sat in the driver’s seat. He started the car at once and drove
away.
Gerald pulled a long face.
Cole’s father, Holden Kenneth, was the current head of the Kenneth family. Cole’s grandfather had
already stepped down.
Gerald had no idea why they summoned him and Mason to a meal.
Without Mason, Gerald would have ignored their invitation already. Yet Mason was already on his way,
so, he had to go there as well.
“Fuck me. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come back at all,” Gerald cursed. He just came back
from somewhere near Splendor Restaurant
Gerald grabbed a taxi and went back to Splendor Restaurant.
Soon, the taxi stopped at Splendor Restaurant. There were already a lot of diners inside
Cole was standing at the door in a suit. He was still disdainful when seeing Gerald. He waved his
hand and said, “Let’s get inside.”
They walked into Splendor Restaurant and went to the fifth floor.
Unlike the first floor, which was with a hall and booths, the fifth floor had nothing but individual private
rooms. The environment here was much quieter and much better than the first floor
“Do you know anything about Splendor Restaurant?” After arriving at the fifth floor, Cole chuckled.
Then he said, “Splendor Restaurant is the best in Sacramento, especially the food served on the fifth
floor. It is the most expensive and delicious in Sacramento. I don’t get it Why did dad
my
invite you here? What a waste.
Gerald ignored Cole.
Seeing that Gerald did not speak, Cole sneered. Then he took the lead. Gerald followed him to a
private room. Then Cole pushed the door open and said, “Dad, Uncle Stephen, Gerald is here.”
Gerald followed Cole to the door. Then he frowned slightly.
There was a large round table in the room, and there were already a lot of people sitting at it, including
Stephen, whom Gerald had been looking for all this time. Stephen looked leisured while holding a glass
of wine in his hand, shaking it slightly
In addition, the burly Armand was also inside the room. Beside Armand sat a girl. When Gerald saw
the girl, his whole body could not help but tremble slightly.
The girl was very pretty, and she looked somehow like Doreen. She had long black hair and wore a
long black dress, sitting next to Armand quietly.
She raised her head and saw Gerald walking into the room. She glanced at him, and a complicated
look flashed through her eyes. Then she lowered her head and looked at the table.
The girl was Bree.
She was the other party involved in Gerald’s accused crime nine years ago.
Gerald did not expect to see Bree here.
Mason was also among those people. He sat in situ a little awkwardly with a sullen face.
Obviously, the people here had said something that wasn’t nice.
Holden, who was sitting at the table, waved his hand and said, “Gerald! It has been nine years since
we last met. You have become much more mature now. Grab a seat!”
Cole chuckled and walked past Gerald. He pulled out a chair and sat down.
Gerald’s line of sight swept over everyone. Then he looked at Mason. “Dad, let’s go.”
“Huh?” Hearing that, everyone frowned.
Cole snorted and said, “Gerald, who do you think you are? You should be honored to be here. Be
grateful.”
Gerald didn’t bother to respond to Cole. Suddenly, Holden chuckled and looked at Mason. “Mason,
think. Do you want to have a meal with us or not?”
Mason frowned, looked at Gerald, and said, “Gerald, come here and sit down.”
Gerald’s expression changed slightly He looked at Mason. Then he walked to Mason’s side, pulled. out
a chair, and sat down.
Next to him, Cole smiled disdainfully, “I thought you were backboned. Yet you did as you were told
eventually.”
“Cole, that’s enough,” Holden said. Then he looked at Gerald and smiled, “I invited you here today for
three main reasons.”
Gerald was silent. Beside him, Mason looked hesitant Obviously, he knew something.
Holden continued, “I’ll begin with the first. I heard you’ve been doing some digging regarding what
happened nine years ago since you got back.”
Gerald was slightly stunned. He thought, it must have been Kyrie who told him. I’m surprised that
Holden would ask me about this.
“So what if I say yes?” Gerald asked.
Holden smiled and then looked at Bree beside him. He said, “What happened nine years ago was a
heavy blow for Bree. By looking into it now, you will only make her suffer more. After you are released,
we have talked to Bree and her family. We advise you to stop investigating.”
Gerald grinned. He said with a half-smile, “Sorry I won’t take your advice.”
you and
“Wait till I finish,” Holden said. “After you get back to Sacramento, due to certain reasons, Henley have
not been seeing eye to eye with each other, and you have been in conflicts with Armand. We can help
you make all these things go away. Also, we can promise that they won’t stand in your way from now
on.
“And then the second matter,” Holden said indifferently, “well, it has something to do with Mason.
Mason is now the vice president of Universe Group. Our family and Universe Group have been
competing in many industries. For some reason, Universe Group always enjoys competing with us,
which is not good for us at all. So, I hope Mason can be a peacemaker and help us achieve a win-win
situation with Universe Group.”
Gerald chuckled. Only he knew that he was the reason why Universe Group and the Kenneth family
were at loggerheads.
Holden continued, “As for the third thing… Well, it’s very simple. As long as you say yes to those two
things I mentioned, I can propose getting your names back on the family tree. You and Mason can be a
part of the Kenneth family again.”
Gerald was slightly stunned. He now knew the reason why Mason was struggling.
He thought, I don’t care if I can be a part of the Kenneth family again. After all, they treated Dad and
me so badly back then. We have already gotten over it.
However, the first thing Holden mentioned concerns me. He called it a piece of advice, but I know. He
was threatening me.
He was telling me that if I continue to pursue the matter, both the Cousy family and the Kenneth family
will come after me.
Dad is worried about me being retaliated against by two families.
Gerald glanced at Bree, who was with a lowered head, and said, “Dad, let’s go.”
