Chapter 7
My parents never wanted me, not really.
At this point, whatever last bit of kindness I had for them? Gone.
They were doomed to destruction.
Right as I was about to speak, I saw William storming over. The moment he spotted me, he rushed in and tried grabbing my arm.
“So, you’re here too. Come with me now!”
He barked orders like I was a damn dog and tried to drag me off.
“Mr. Graham, what’s this about?”
I asked, cold as hell. “Where are you taking
me?”
“Your brother needs your kidney. You’re coming with me right now!”
He opened his mouth to say more, but right

The shock on his face was almost funny. I stared at him and said, “Mr. Graham, are you seriously saying you want to take me away and carve out my kidney?”

still want to be acknowledged as a Graham, you’ll do as I say!”
“If you don’t…”
He paused, his eyes sharp as he continued, “You won’t be able to handle the
consequences!”
I didn’t even flinch.
When I didn’t respond, he got pissed and lunged for me again. But before he could, my secretary hurried over.
The moment she appeared, several guests rushed to ask if Mr. Vandermere had arrived yet.
Even William stopped in his tracks, turning to face her. He knew damn well that his company’s survival depended on me.
But then my secretary, bless her timing, said, loud and clear, “President, my apologies I’m late!”
“W–What did you just say?”

Ingrid and Dave? They just stood there, dumbfounded, staring at me,

polite nod, smiling faintly.
When it hit them that I was Mr. Vandermere, the richest guy in the room, the atmosphere shifted. Suddenly, everyone was a lot more enthusiastic.
“Tonight, I have two announcements!”
I looked at the crowd, smiling as 1 enumerated, “First, I’m canceling my collaboration with G Industries. Second, due to previous breaches of contract, I’ll be suing them for damages!”
The moment I finished, both of my parents panicked.

He shouted, demanding answers.
But I couldn’t be bothered to respond. I turned and walked away.
The only reason I came here was to make that announcement. Now that it was done,

Without a glance back, I headed back to the company.
At that moment, my legal team was already on it.
The G Industries had collaborated with us several times before, but thanks to Dave’s incompetence, there had been multiple screw–ups. Now? We were officially suing them.
