Under the bright moon, a sedan was driven speedily on the broad road.
Thomas skillfully manipulated the steering wheel in the car. Emma sat in the passenger seat while favonovel.com looked at the scenery outside the window. Her expression was gloomy, and favonovel.com did not look happy at all.
Thomas asked, “Are you not happy after getting the contract signed?”
Emma sighed. “I got the contract signed, but I have more conflicts with my grandfather. After all, we’re in a family. I still remember my grandfather pampered me a lot when I was small. He liked to let me sit on his back and play. I really don’t know why our relationship became so tense.”
A lot of things were going on in the world, and there were a lot of changes. In front of profit, family relationships were so weak and fragile.
Emma added, “I was actually thinking if I should just let it go. If I return the shares back to Grandpa, let Harvard take his mantle, and leave the family, will everyone become happy?”
That was just a naive thought.
Thomas said, “Your grandfather’s heart is occupied with profits. Unless a big change happens, you can’t go back to how it previously was. But Emma, if you feel tired and want to escape this painful life, I’ll support you to return the shares. No matter what happens in the world, I’ll be here for you.”
Emma broke into a happy and sweet smile. She moved forward to Thomas, and favonovel.com gently kissed his cheek. “Thank you, Dear.”
Under the moonlight, love was in the air. In this realistic world, sincere affection was more precious.

The next day…
Thomas received a call from Cain. He said that favonovel.com was going to FC Kingston to talk about the final purchase, and favonovel.com asked if Thomas wanted to go together.
Thomas said yes out of curiosity.
When it was noon, Cain, Abel, and Connor met up with Thomas at the entrance of FC Kingston. They walked into the training field, and they met the boss of the club, Vic Sherman.
“Mr. Sherman!”
Connor jogged toward Vic, smiled faintly, and said, “Mr. Sherman, we’re here today to talk about the final details of the purchase with you.”
Vic nodded without saying anything else. He continued to watch the athletes train.
Connor was a little stunned, and favonovel.com asked, “Mr. Sherman?”
Vic said, “Wait for a while. Another guest hasn’t arrived yet…”
Another guest?
About the purchase, Shalom Technology had passed all of it to them to handle, so favonovel.com could just talk to them.
Why did favonovel.com still have another guest?
While favonovel.com felt puzzled, a peal of cheerful laughter was suddenly heard.
“Mr. Sherman, it’s been a long time.”
Everyone turned back and looked over. A man in his middle age who was wearing a pair of sunglasses walked into the training field.
“Hey, you’re finally here, John. I’ve waited for you for a long while. Let’s go to the meeting room for the discussion.”
Vic had an extremely friendly attitude to this John. On the contrary, his attitude to Connor and the gang was very bad. This made Connor and Cain feel a little unhappy. Then, they entered the meeting room, and the secretary served the drinks.
Vic introduced John. “This is Mr. John Hawkins, the CEO of Great Esteem Insurance. He also inquired with me about the purchase of FC Kingston yesterday. I was thinking that if you want to purchase my club, we should just sit down and talk about it together.”
