The Scott House.
Thud! Master Scott hit the wooden floor heavily with his cane which was made of rosewood. His hair was winter-white.
He fought the chaos of his rage, his glasses quivering.
He pointed at Dennis Scott with his index finger, shivering. "You brat, it's your wish to see me pass away in anger, no?"
Dennis glanced at Master Scott indifferently. "Grandpa, don't accuse me. Aren't you the one who brings this upon yourself?"
"That girl from the Bailey family, you have to marry her, even if you don't want to!" barked Master Scott.
"Give me a reason."
"If it weren't for Master Bailey, I would have already died! Besides, this is an agreement made between your father and the Bailey family!" Master Scott was breathless with anger.
"That's the business of your generation. Do whatever you want, be it to repay their kindness or even to take revenge. Don't drag me in."
Master Scott was almost choking on his rage. He glared at Dennis and exploded, "You're my grandson!"
"There are many ways to repay someone's kindness. But, I will never agree to have this done through marriage. Besides, I'm not the only son of the Scott family." Dennis rose to his feet. "I still have work to attend to in the company. I'm afraid that I can't help you with this."
"Two conditions! As long as you marry that girl, I will give you whatever you want."
Dennis sneered, "Save it. Threat or lure, it's not going to work on me."
As Dennis walked to the door, Master Scott finally decided to reveal his trump card. "The Scott Group and that woman!"
Dennis halted in his tracks. An old man was indeed a wise man. He turned on his heel as a gleam flashed across his eyes. "I'm all ears."
A smug smile spread across Master Scott's face. "You brat, listen up carefully."
He continued, "As long as you marry that girl, the Scott Group will be all yours. You're right that I have more than one grandson in the Scott family. If the one who marries the girl is your elder brother, then he naturally has the right to own the Scott Group."
"For the sake of that girl, you've actually bet the company on it? Isn't the Scott Group your hard work for decades?"
