Ten billion?!
Jas Ye was left dumbfounded upon hearing the figure.
He knew his grandfather's family was wealthy, but as a child, he had no concept of money, only aware that the Ye Family was among the top echelons in Yanjing and the entire country.
However, he had no idea just how much money they actually had.
But now, he had a rough idea.
Ten billion was rely pocket change; the entire Ye Family's assets must be over a trillion!
Truth be told, he was tempted at that mont.
Yet, thinking of his parents' deaths and his grandfather's inescapable responsibility, he found it hard to forgive.
Seeing his dilemma, Anthony Tang hurriedly said, "Young Master, you are a Ye, and this money is rightfully yours. Strictly speaking, it belonged to your father.
The Old Master said that if you're willing to return, you'll inherit the family's trillion-dollar fortune. If you choose not to, consider this money as living expenses.
Oh, and by the way, Dihao Group, the largest enterprise in Jinling with a market value of a hundred billion yuan, was fully acquired by the Ye Family yesterday. All shares are now in your na, and you can take over at Dihao Group tomorrow!"
Jas Ye found it hard to believe.
Was the Ye Family investing too much just for him?
A black card with ten billion and the Dihao Group worth a hundred billion!
Jinling might be full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, but the true deity there was Dihao Group. All families bowed before it—it was the emperor of Jinling's business realm!
Even the Xiao Family and Wang Family that humiliated him today, as well as the Zhang Family pursuing Mary Xiao, were re minions before Dihao Group!
And now, it was his?
At that mont, Anthony handed him a business card, saying, "Young Master, you might need so ti to think things over. I won't disturb you further. Here's my number; call anyti you need."
With that, Anthony Tang turned and left.
After he departed, Jas Ye stood there, stunned.
He wasn't sure if he should accept the Ye Family's compensation.
But after so thought, considering the hardships he'd endured over the past decade and the humiliations he faced as a son-in-law in the Xiao Family, wasn't this compensation from the Ye Family? Why shouldn't he accept it?
Moreover, Auntie Li's dical bills urgently needed two million.
With that in mind, he gritted his teeth and imdiately turned back to the paynt counter: "Hello, I'd like to pay the two million."
Swipe the card, enter the pin, transaction successful.
Two million smoothly transferred into the hospital's account.
Jas Ye felt as if he was in a fog.
Had he just beco a billionaire overnight?
***
He returned ho in a daze.
The house was in an uproar.
Mary Xiao and her parents didn't live in the Xiao Family villa but in a very ordinary apartnt building.
Ever since Mary married him and Old Master Xiao passed away, they had been driven out.
His mother-in-law was furiously scolding at ho: "Jas Ye, that good-for-nothing! He made our family lose face today! If you don't divorce him, your grandmother might kick you out of Xiao Group!"
Mary replied, "If I'm kicked out, I'll just find another job."
"You..." Her mother-in-law, frustrated, said, "What's so good about that loser? Why can't you divorce him and marry Matthew Zhang? If you married Matthew, our whole family could hold our heads high!"
Her father-in-law added, "Exactly! Marrying Matthew would make us treasures in front of your grandmother; she'd be eager to bootlick you every day."
Mary said, "Enough, I won't divorce Jas."
"You child!"
As they continued to persuade her, Jas pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing him, his in-laws wore displeased expressions.
His mother-in-law snorted coldly, "A good-for-nothing, and you still have the face to co back!"
Jas sighed inwardly; his mother-in-law had always looked down on him. But what would her reaction be if she knew he was now the boss of Dihao Group with ten billion in cash?
However, Jas wasn't ready to reveal his identity just yet.
Having been away from the Ye Family for years, who knew what the situation was now? What if revealing himself put him at risk from soone within the Ye Family?
Better to keep a low profile for now.

So he hung his head and apologized, "Mom, I'm sorry for the trouble today."
His mother-in-law scolded, "Trouble? You're threatening the lives of our whole family! Can't you have so self-awareness and get out of our house?"
Mary quickly said, "Mom, how can you speak like that? Jas is your son-in-law!"
"Bullshit!" Her mother-in-law spat out hatefully, "I don't have such a worthless son-in-law! The further away he rolls, the better!"
Mary pushed Jas, "Hurry back to your room."
Grateful, Jas nodded and escaped to his room.
He had been married to Mary for three years, but they had never consummated the marriage; Mary slept on the bed while he slept on the floor beside it.
***
That night, Jas couldn't sleep for a long ti.
The day's events were too shocking, and he couldn't digest them all at once.
Before sleeping, Mary said to him, "How's Auntie Li? I have so savings, about a hundred thousand. Take it to her tomorrow."
Jas replied, "No need, soone has already paid for Auntie Li and sent her to Yanjing for treatnt."
"Really?" Mary exclaid with joy, "Auntie Li is saved?"
"Yes," Jas said, "Auntie Li has spent her life doing good deeds and helping so many people. Now soone has finally repaid her kindness."
"That's good," Mary nodded, then said to Jas, "You can breathe a sigh of relief now."
"Yes."
Mary said, "I need to sleep. There's so much going on at the company, I'm exhausted."
Jas asked, "Is there a problem at the company?"
Mary replied, "Business isn't great. Grandma has always wanted to cooperate with a big company like Dihao Group, but the Xiao Family's strength is still lacking, and they don't take us seriously."
Jas suddenly thought of Dihao Group and asked, "The Xiao Family hasn't cooperated with Dihao Group?"
Mary laughed at herself, "How could Dihao Group take notice of the Xiao Family? Even Barbara's fiancé, Daniel Wang's family, can barely connect with Dihao Group. Grandma is hoping that after their marriage, the Wang Family can help the Xiao Family establish a connection with Dihao Group."
Jas nodded.
So, the Xiao Family was desperate to collaborate with Dihao Group.
But Old Mada Xiao couldn't have dread that Dihao Group was now his...
Thinking this, Jas decided to first take over Dihao Group, then use it to give Mary a helping hand. She had suffered enough bullying in the Xiao Family, and as her husband, it was his responsibility to improve her status within the family.
Mary, your husband is going to be different from today on!
I won't let anyone look down on you again!
I will make the entire Xiao Family bow before you!
