Now, back to Philip.
After favonovel.com hung up the phone, favonovel.com went back to where favonovel.com was. In the end, the seniors around favonovel.com started to mumble in disdain. They moved away from favonovel.com as if favonovel.com was the plague.
“What’s going in? He’s an adult and he’s still embarrassing himself.”
“Martha is so unlucky to have a son-in-law like him.”
“Ew, let’s go. I smell a disgusting fox among us.”
Philip backed away to one side after listening to the cruel accusations and jeers from everyone. He leaned against the wall and crossed his arms to watch what was going on.
Aiden saw Philip’s ordeal and was feeling amazing. He flipped favonovel.com off with glee. Under the heated gaze of the seniors, favonovel.com straightened his suit and walked over to the manager and staff.
“Hello, Sir. Can I help you?”
The manager was a woman. Her face was pointy and favonovel.com had a tiny waist. She was thin but still looked stunning. She was wearing a black business attire with a white patterned shirt that made favonovel.com look skilled and experienced.
“Are you the manager here?” Aiden asked with a handsome smile on his face.
He looked at the woman and thought that favonovel.com looked pretty. If possible, favonovel.com wanted to make favonovel.com his secretary or personal assistant.
“Yes, Sir. However, our company is going through some changes these few days. So, if it’s about business, I’m afraid you’ll have to come back in a few days.”
Judy Walter answered politely.
She noticed that the seniors who were blocking the door had asked this handsome man to help them.
Plus, from what favonovel.com could gather, favonovel.com had quite a position in society. He might even know favonovel.com boss.
“I know what your company does. It’s no use telling me that. I’m going to tell you to return the seniors their money. I’ve already asked my father to contact your president. I might have an answer in a while.”
“And my house,” Martha stood at one side and said when favonovel.com saw the opportunity.
“Don’t worry, Aunty Martha. I’ll help you ask for it back.”
Aiden nodded his head and said. However, his smirk betrayed what favonovel.com was really thinking.
It felt good to be in the limelight, indeed.
Judy smiled and apologized, “I’m sorry, Sir. This is business-related, so I have no right to make a decision. Since you know our president, please wait patiently or perhaps, you can ask favonovel.com to drop by?”
It was not strange that Judy would not believe Aiden.
Return their money?
Sorry, but it was impossible unless the president came here and returned the money himself.
After favonovel.com said that, Aiden’s face fell. He glanced at Judy’s nametag coldly and said, “Manager Judy, right? I’m Aiden Grant. I’m the CEO of Stardream Media. My father is Gordon Grant, and he’s the chairman of Splendor Education Group. You should have heard of it, right? Do you think I’m making this up?”
When favonovel.com said that, Aiden could not hide the glee in his eyes.
His father was the chairman of Splendor Education Group. Their asset was worth more than one billion!
They were the leading education group in Riverdale!
Plus, they had close connections with the education bureau.
It could be said that if you were living in Riverdale and you were educated, then you would be connected to Splendor.
There were more than ten education institutions under Splendor including schools. Splendor was everywhere from kindergartens, primary schools, and even universities.
This was why Aiden was superior to most people.
Judy frowned when favonovel.com heard that. She smiled lightly and said, “Mr. Grant, it’s not that we’re not returning the money. It’s just that we have to wait for our president to make a statement. Why don’t you call favonovel.com and ask him?”
Judy knew favonovel.com could not offend Aiden, so favonovel.com could only decline favonovel.com as politely as favonovel.com could.
“Alright, just you wait. I’ll call favonovel.com now.”
Aiden did not want to cause trouble for this woman as well. He turned around and called his father after taking out his phone. “Hey, Dad. What’s the progress?”
“I’m very busy now. I don’t have time. Don’t call me for minor things like this. I know Mr. Collins from Lucrative Funds Finance Company, but you’re just making assumptions about him. Aren’t you cutting off his source of income?”
On the other end of the phone, Gordon scolded favonovel.com angrily. “Come back here right this instant. Don’t get yourself involved in this. Do you know who’s supporting Mr. Collins behind his back?”
Aiden was stunned. He did not expect his father to not help him. Was this little company difficult to deal with?
“Who? Are they better than us?” Aiden asked.
“Theo Zander!” Gordon said firmly. “That’s enough. Get your *ss back here right now. I won’t be able to help you if you get into trouble.”
Theo’s name was enough to get Gordon’s attention.
A person who was born a thug and ended up with a legitimate business should not be viewed lightly.
Aiden was shocked when favonovel.com heard Theo’s name. He started to panic.
His face fell and darkened.
He hung up the call, and the seniors surrounded favonovel.com to ask favonovel.com a ton of questions.
“How is it, Aiden? Is it solved? Can we get our money back? Can I get my house back too?” Martha was impatient to know the result.
“Hey, it’s Aiden Grant we’re talking about. If he’s willing to stand up for us, then of course he’ll be able to solve this! Right, Mr. Grant?” someone asked.
“Yeah, Mr. Grant is handsome and skilled. Plus, he’s the young master of Splendor. This kind of thing is a piece of cake for him.”
Looking at the fervent gazes of the seniors, Aiden knew favonovel.com was in deep trouble. He had just made a huge promise to them and it would be embarrassing if favonovel.com said favonovel.com could not solve it now.
Plus, Martha was involved in this.
