Chapter 903: How To Prove?
Jace’s face was full of ridicule.
He didn’t believe that an illegitimate son who had been living on his own for decades would be able to resolve the Huttons’ crisis!
Moreover, Jace didn’t believe that there was a Hutton more capable than him!
He would never admit to this!
Even he didn’t have the ability to resolve the Huttons’ crisis within such a short ti. How could Roman be able to do it?
Thus, he was sure that Roman was trying to claim credit!
“Hah, Jace, are you refusing to admit what you said before? Are you going back on your word?” Roman looked at Jace coldly.
“Hmph, when did I say I was going to go back on my word? I’m just questioning you for making things up and trying to fool us!” Jace sneered.
“Just now, we were discussing ways to deal with the crisis, yet you suddenly ca running back in less than an hour. Do you think we’d believe you?
“Moreover, you only ca back to say you settled it after Mr. Stevens announced the good news to us. That makes you even less credible!
“If you want us to believe that you’ve resolved this crisis, then you have to show us concrete proof! Talk is cheap. I can also say that I resolved the crisis this ti. Would you believe ?
“If you can’t produce any evidence, it ans that not only have you not made any contribution to the family, but you’re even trying to claim false credit. People like you should leave the Huttons as soon as possible! Don’t even think about being the successor!”
Jace was extrely displeased with Roman, who had suddenly popped up out of nowhere to compete with him for the position of successor. He had long wanted to kick him out of the Huttons again, so he was extrely hostile toward him.
What Jace said made many others in the conference room who thought that Roman had resolved the family’s crisis begin to doubt him.
Indeed, they didn’t believe that a young man like Roman could have so much power!
Collin’s face beca gloomy, but he was hostile toward Jace.
Roman was Collin’s son, but Jace openly questioned Roman’s ability and character in front of everyone. Collin was extrely upset.
Even though his son had grown up away from the Huttons and didn’t enjoy a privileged life or the best education, he was still his son! He believed that Roman had his genes. Even though Roman hadn’t lived with the Huttons, he could definitely beco a capable and competent young man. Who was Jace, a second-generation heir, to question his son’s abilities and humiliate him?
Roman didn’t take Jace, who relied on his family, seriously at all. He glanced at him with disdain and said, “Jace, don’t put on airs in front of ! We’re both part of the Hutton family, and we’re both of the sa generation. You’re not any nobler than !
“You’re saying that you suspect I didn’t resolve this crisis, and you want to produce concrete proof, right? In that case, whoever suspects should show evidence I didn’t do it!
“Since I didn’t resolve this matter, can you tell who did it? Huh? Do you really want to say that you solved it? Don’t make others laugh their heads off!
“Besides, you’ve already been removed from the position of successor. According to the previous agreent, I will be the future successor of the Huttons. So you’d better speak to more politely!”
Roman’s words imdiately made Jace furious.
“Damn it! Who are you? How dare you demand that I speak to you politely? I’m the heir of the Huttons, while you’re just an illegitimate son kicked out of the family for many years! What qualifications do you have to be on my level?
“Also, how dare you ask for evidence? Hah, what a joke. If you have what it takes, take out the evidence to prove that you really resolved the family’s crisis. Otherwise, it ans you’re making it up!
“Hmph, if you can’t produce the evidence, you are even less qualified to be the successor of the Huttons! Dream on!”
Jace was so angry that he couldn’t care less about the ti and place. The words that ca out of his mouth were extrely uncouth and devoid of the manners of a noble young man.
Even Michael couldn’t help showing so disappointnt when he heard what his son said.
“Hah, you keep saying that you want evidence from , right? I’ll prove it to you then!” Roman raised his eyebrows and suddenly took out his phone to make a call.
“Hey, buddy, they want to ask for evidence!” Roman said laughingly, completely unconcerned about the faces of the Huttons present.
On the other end, a helpless voice said, “Are you trying to drag in as well?”
Roman laughed. “Don’t say that. We’re working together! Now, I have no choice but to co to you for help!”
The person on the other end sighed. “So, what do you need to do for you now?”
“The Huttons don’t believe that I helped resolve their crisis. Jace has been refusing to admit it and insists that I produce evidence. What do you think I should do?” Roman shrugged.
“This…” The person on the other end seed to laugh lightly and then said playfully, “This is easy to handle. If they don’t believe it, let the crisis happen a few more tis until they believe that you resolved it! But I’m afraid that the Huttons won’t be able to withstand this kind of tornt. If this happens a few more tis, they might really lose their position as one of the eight top families of DC!”
“Good, that’s a great idea!” Roman imdiately clapped his hands and laughed. “Then, I’ll have to trouble you to start the crisis again.”
“No problem. Wait!” With that, the other party simply hung up the phone.
Because Roman had put the call on speakerphone, everyone present could clearly hear the conversation between the two.
The rest of the Huttons were all a bit confused, not knowing whom Roman talked to.
But Michael and Jace tensed up the mont they heard the voice.
Michael’s fingers began trembling slightly when he heard the calm voice on the other end.
It was… Lucas, his other son whom he hadn’t seen for more than 20 years!
After hearing his voice, Michael imdiately lowered his head, not wanting the rest of the Huttons to see the disoriented look on his face.
But the excitent in his heart and the complicated emotions surging up at the sa ti left him at a loss for words.
Jace’s face was full of resentnt.
He now knew why Roman suddenly showed up and competed with him for the position of the Huttons’ successor. It seed it was all because of Lucas!
At this mont, Michael suddenly raised his head and said to Roman, “Roman, tell that person that no matter what his intentions are, I will agree to him!”
Everyone in the conference room widened their eyes in astonishnt!
