Chapter 728: Chapter 724: Aldo Lewis Who Drives Himself to Extinction
He never expected that his threat, which he thought could be used as a bargaining chip,
would result in him being expelled from the family tree, removed from the group chat, and relieved of all his duties in the Lewis Group…
Aldo Lewis panicked. He took out his phone and tried to call his grandfather.
However, all he heard was the “beep-beep” busy signal.
It seemed that his grandfather had blocked his number.
He grew more frantic and called the old housekeeper,
but even the housekeeper’s phone simply gave him the “beep-beep” busy signal.
Aldo Lewis had no choice but to call Elizabeth Lewis. Her phone was reachable, but she just didn’t answer.
Aldo Lewis called her several times, and then he heard the mechanical prompt saying, “Sorry, the number you dialed has been turned off.”
Aldo Lewis didn’t give up and called Grace Lewis.
The result was the same as with Elizabeth.
Aldo Lewis was genuinely in a panic.
He paced around his house in distress, and after thinking it through, it seemed that no one could help him.
While he could not reach anyone through the phone, many calls kept coming in.
Some were debt collectors, some were discussing business with him before.
And there were also calls from Mason Lilliput.
For other calls, Aldo Lewis could just ignore,
but he did not dare not answer Mason’s call.
“Mr. Lilliput, what can I do for you?”
He pretended to be relaxed and spoke casually.
“Mr. Lewis, I heard you’ve been kicked out of the Lewis family by your old man?”
Good news never leaves the house, but bad news travels a thousand miles.
“Mr. Lilliput, it’s just a fit of anger from my father. After a few days, everything will be fine.”
Aldo Lewis’ words were more like comforting himself than reassuring Mason Lilliput.
Mason Lilliput chuckled twice, “Is that so? Then let’s put aside our previous discussions for now, and we can resume them once your father restores your position.”
Aldo Lewis got anxious, “No, Mr. Lilliput, didn’t we agree before that we would sign the contract in a few days and then roll out the products on a large scale? Why are you suddenly changing your mind?”
The reason Aldo Lewis was so anxious was that Mason Lilliput promised to invest a large sum in operational costs after signing the contract.
If the deal was off now, wouldn’t the big money at his fingertips simply fly away?
Mason Lilliput’s patience was apparently limited, and his voice suddenly became indifferent.
“I was going to sign with you because you were the Lewis’ fourth son, the people in the Lewis’ Village would still listen to you. Now, you are nothing. Who in the Lewis’ Village will listen to you? Do you think you can still distribute my goods smoothly?”
Of course, Aldo Lewis knew this, which was why he was so frantic.
Being removed from the family tree by his grandfather meant he could no longer use his title of Mr. Lewis to gain any benefits.
“Didn’t I say? My father is just angry now, and he will restore my status in a few days. Mr. Lilliput, you have to realize he only has one legitimate son now.”
Mason Lilliput remained unmoved.
“Well, let’s wait until you regain your position. Anyway, I already have the contract ready. You can sign it whenever you recover your position.”
Everyone knew that without the title of Mr. Lewis (), Aldo Lewis was just a useless man.
With no value to be exploited.
“And I’ll remind you, your father, who has severed ties with you, might value those three gifted children left behind by Roy Lewis even more!”
Aldo Lewis got angry, “Those three bastards…”
Mason Lilliput interrupted him, “Your old man isn’t a fool. If they were really bastards, would he let Richelle Dunn in? Would he allow the other two children into the family tree? Mr. Lewis, if you have a way to recover your position, just hurry up, lest more problems arise.”
Of course, Aldo Lewis knew he had to act fast.
But he had exhausted all the solutions he could think of, pleaded with everyone he could, yet none of them worked.
“Mr. Lilliput, can you at least stick to the original plan and distribute the goods first? After all, reconciling with my father is just a matter of a few days. There’s no need for my personal affairs to affect the overall situation.”
However, Mason Lilliput directly crushed all his hopes.
“No need, I have alternative options. If you can’t walk this path, just take another one. Mr. Lewis, good luck!”
This “good luck” was uttered so perfunctorily, with no sincerity whatsoever.
Aldo Lewis, feeling utterly devastated, listened as the call was disconnected.
A little later, the people at the old house called to report to the old housekeeper.
Aldo Lewis, along with his wife and two children, was kneeling under the scorching sun outside the main entrance of the mansion.
The old housekeeper informed the old man, who was playing with his great-grandchildren, building Legos. Unconcerned and without even looking up, the old man said,
“Let them be. They are outsiders, whether they kneel or not, who cares.”
Those who didn’t know the truth would probably accuse the old man of abandoning his family for his own pleasure.
Only those who knew the truth understood that the old man had no choice but to let go because he was fed up with these unworthy descendants.
However, the old housekeeper felt that this was not quite right.
“Old Master, wouldn’t it be inappropriate to let outsiders see this?”
The old man finally looked up and sneered,
“Are they afraid of being seen by outsiders? Their faces have long been disgraced by themselves!”
The old housekeeper saw that the old man was determined not to care, but he had to consider the young master who he had watched grow up. So, he quietly told the bodyguardsideiously on behalf of the old house,
to call the police and have Aldo Lewis and his family driven away by the authorities.
