Chapter 283: Family Meeting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Yvette Larson, don’t you think you’ve gone overboard?” Quince Larson slammed his fist on the table in fury. He couldn’t care less about the other’s identity now.?‘Who cares if you’re the family head? You don’t even respect the elders in the family, so why should I respect you?’
“What, am I wrong? Since you’re so impressive, why don’t we go to the Larson family’s ancestral shrine? Let’s see if these three men are really worthy of being called family elders.”
The Larson family was a conservative one, and everyone had been brought up to respect their elders. These men would never dare to spout nonsense in front of their ancestors.
“Yvette Larson, don’t you just want to be addressed as the family head? Fine, we’ll do just that.” Michael Larson was the one who had spoken.
Even though he seemed a little aggrieved, Yvette Larson didn’t seem to be moved at all. The moment she learned of this family meeting, she had already been sure that the entire family was on her cousin’s side. This meant that they were her enemies—even if they were her elders.
The three men stood up and addressed the young lady. “Ms. Larson.”
“Mm.” Yvette Larson answered blandly without even looking up.
That reply humiliated the three men even more.
“Alright, can we start now?” Quince Larson looked at his cousin, hostility evident in his gaze.
“Yes.”
“Fine. Let’s discuss the topic of electing a new family head.”
“What’s the reason for that?”
“What do you mean?”
“If you want to elect a new family head, you have to tell us a reason. Has the incumbent done something to wrong the family, or has she betrayed the family? You have to give us a reason for requesting this change.”
In the family’s history, there were only two reasons for changing the family head. Firstly, the death of a family head. Secondly, the incumbent family head made such a huge mistake that the family’s elders came to a consensus to select a new family head.
Since Quince Larson was looking to bring her down, it was only right for him to give her a reason for doing so.
“A reason? Hehe. So many families in San Francisco have already terminated their contracts with your company. Do you really not know how big of an impact that is? Don’t you think that’s enough reason to take you down from your position as family head?”
“Oh, I’ll change the name of my company to Taylor Corporation tomorrow then. Anyway, none of you have any shares in the company. Quince, have you gone mad? What does my company have to do with you?”
“You…” Quince Larson was on the verge of blowing up. He’d already run through the sequence of events of this meeting a hundred times before today.?‘Everything should’ve gone smoothly. After all, not only are the elders on my side, but even the rest of the family is too. Why should I have to fear her? Once I snatch the position of family head away from her, the company will be my next target.’?
But never had he imagined things to turn awry.
“Yvette, both you and your best friend offended so many prominent figures at that charity ball that night. Now, they’re turning against our family. Don’t you think that you’ve wronged the family?”
Yvette Larson chuckled. “Firstly, my friend was the one who said those things. I said nothing. Secondly, so what if they target me? The Larson family is already the second-most powerful family in San Francisco. Do I have to be afraid of everyone else? Quince, based on what you’re saying, you’d have to kneel down and beg for forgiveness, even letting those people trample all over our family if this happens to you. Am I right?”
Yvette Larson analyzed his thoughts meticulously, exposing everything her cousin had planned out.
This was the person who wanted to take her place! How could they hand the Larson family into his hands? Wouldn’t the Larson family have to face humiliation at the hands of others if he were to be in charge?
Now that things had gotten to this point, there was no way Quince Larson was going to let this meeting go on. He would only be digging his own grave.
Yvette Larson scanned the room. “Does anyone else have any objections to me being the family head? If you do, you’d better speak up and not hold it in.”
Nobody dared to meet her eyes.
As Yvette Larson stood up to leave, a commotion sounded outside the family residence.
“Quince Larson, we’re here. How’s your family meeting going? Have you become the family head yet?” The man who spoke was Vincent Smith.
Quince Larson had been so full of confidence about the results that he had even invited Vincent Smith to this meeting. He wanted to inherit the position of Larson family head in front of all the other family heads of San Francisco.
Who would’ve thought that things would turn out this way?
‘Great! My words have now become a joke! I’ll become the greatest joke in all their eyes!’?
When Vincent Smith entered the room and saw that Yvette Larson was standing, he immediately thought that the latter wanted to leave because her position had been snatched from her.?‘Now that she has lost all power and position, there is no reason for us to fear her.’?
They sneered.
“Yvette Larson, shall we address you as ex-family head now?” His words were full of mockery.
“I’m sorry for disappointing you, Vincent Smith. I’m still the family head.”
Shock!
Everyone’s faces were filled with disbelief.?‘How can that be? What’s Quince Larson up to? We’re all on his side, and so is his family. Yvette Larson is the only one from her family who even turned up. Finn Taylor isn’t here; neither is Francis Larson or Linda James. Even under such circumstances, Quince Larson couldn’t defeat his cousin? What a piece of trash!’?
However, Vincent Smith had something else up his sleeves. “I have to congratulate you then. Let me organize a dinner party for you to celebrate. I hope you’ll give me the honor!”
With that, Vincent Smith stretched his arm out.
Five to six men in black then walked into the room, heading straight for Yvette Larson.
