Chapter 269 - Do you know who is she...
When Jean and Scott are in indulged in loving each other ....his uncle went directly to his father, Elder Summers.
"Father I have something to talk with you" Steve, the twin brother of Stephen talked with his father.
Elder Summers looked up at him and frowned. "Steve, if you want to talk about the drastic decrease in stock values of your company, this is not right time. As I already said, go and ask your big brother" he dismissed his second son with blink of an eye.
Summers Enterprises and Summers shipments are two separate companies. Elder Summers tested both his son’s abilities and distributed the companies.
As Stephen is genius and hard working he earned his father’s trust and became CEO of Summer Enterprises. Whereas Steve didn’t reach the expectations so Elder Summers continued to look after the company till couple of years back.
After that he announced that Steve would be temporary president till he test his grandsons and make one of them as the CEO. It is no wonder that everyone preferred Scott. He is already CEO of Cyphers and second biggest shareholder of Summer Enterprises, though he already wrote it under Shawn he still holds the power as much as his father do..
That is the reason Steve is desperate to defame Scott...
"No father, it is about Scott." He smirked as he noticed the changes in his father’s face.
"He is playing around women" Steve told, as he passed his mobile to his father, it is a pic of Scott and Jean kissing intimately.
Steve expected his father would fume with rage, but to his distraught he smiled cheekily and said. "They are looking perfect together" then his smile widened.
Madam Summers beamed happily as she listened to her husband. ’Scott would be ecstatic if he listen this’ she thought and nodded her head at her husband.
Steve is rendered speechless. "Jean is already engaged, father. They are just having a fling, can’t you see... Scott is a playboy" he yelled as he lost his feign patience.
Elder Summers face blackened with anger. How could he tolerate when his favorite grandson is getting humiliated. "What do you want to say by this Steve Summers. Don’t you have a common sense not to spy on others life" he retorted.
"He is not suited as the next successor of you. He will humiliate Summers" Steve said and pointed his finger towards the pic.
"Is this your prime reason to talk about him like that" Elder Summers gestured his head at the pic.
"Can’t you see how he seduced her into his bed. He is nothing but-"
*PAK*
Madam Summers gave a huge slap to her son. "Never talk about Scott like this" her voice cracked with anger she subsided for this long.
"Steve, do you know that Jean is engaged to Scott but not any other man. They are trying to impress me with all their heart" Elder Summers couldn’t bear to see his wife getting emotional like that. She is a heart patient after all...
Both Madam Summers and Steve froze from talking anything. They snapped their heads to see him with baffled expression written all over their face. ’He knows’ she wondered..
"I approve her. She is perfect match to become next mistress of my family" he firmly said.
Steve is momentarily dazed, but he came back to his senses soon enough. "Father, if that is the case then why did they hide it from you" he smirked.
Elder Summers smiled devilishly and said "They are waiting for right time. Everything has its own time to talk about" he supported them.
"If isn’t for their respect to Elders, they would have married long back. We couldn’t have done anything then. Unlike your son he don’t want our wealth and inheritance. He is rich enough to take care of his own family, he is independent and hard working just like his father" Madam Summers stated her point.
It is indeed very true, but the difference is that they already got married and seeking their permission now...
When Steve almost gave up, some information about Jean popped up in his mobile. It is sent by Mr. Sheldon, Sianna’s father.
It is the rift between the families of Grey and Summers.
"Father will you approve of Jean if she is daughter of JONATHAN GREY" he smirked and raised his brow with arrogance.
Elder Summers froze in his place. His face darkened and his eyes flickered with uncertainty. He clenched his fists and closed his eyes, controlling his anger.
Madam Summers knew that she has to face this at some of other time. She is very determined to help her grandson... it is now her time to fulfill her promise to Scott.
"What will happen if she is, how can you judge her because of her parentage. She lost her parents at tender age and have faced many complications because her uncles family" she spoke firmly. There is no chance she will bend her will..
"So, my dear mother is already aware of this" Steve smirked.
"So, what. I simply didn’t accept her because my grandson love her. I judged her very cautiously after analyzing her character" she retorted and took her husbands hand into her own.
"Dear, if I have told you earlier then would you have met her. As per my guess your answer is ’no’. She is unique and very special, moreover your grandson loves her to his life. How can we be heartless just because of that stupid rift" she pleaded.
"You are very happy with accepting her till you found that she is Grey. It is her family that you don’t like, not her... Jean is innocent" Madam Summers teared up. Summers hate to see their wives cry, they really pamper them a lot..
"See father, even mother is taking that b**** side. She is fighting against your judgement" Steve added fuel to the ignited fire.
Even before he could complete his statement a harsh and rough hand slammed on his cheek.
"Dare to talk anymore about my sister. I will not even care if you are uncle of my wife" Raymond fumed with anger as his hands trembled with rage that boiling in his veins.
"Old man, I have something to talk to you before you take the decision" a weak voice cracked.
Madam and Elder Summers stiffened as they listened to the familiar voice that they have missed since years..
"Lillian" Elder Summers widened his wrinkled eyes at the sickly woman who is seated on the wheel chair. Behind her is Seline who is almost at the verge of crying.
"I want to talk to you in private Old man. I want this stupid son of yours out of the room" she said in her weak voice but the fierceness in it is same like before.
Raymond dragged Steve out of the room mercilessly. "If you talk about this with others, I swear I will destroy you and your family to the pieces. Do you want me to reveal how disgusting your son is...a womanizer can’t be approved even as a board member of the company. Your choice...little or nothing" Raymond’s cold and deadly voice sent shivers across his spine.
Steve nodded his head and stumbled to his room.
Meanwhile in the room...
"Old man, do you know who Jean is" Madam Black looked at him with gloomy face as her tears slowly made its way down her wrinkled and pale face.
