Chapter 307: Chapter 307: Unsuitable for Managing a Company
Wyatt Lewis has been beaten by Waylon Lewis since childhood, but no matter how he was beaten, he never seemed to learn, always carrying on with that carefree demeanor, which really got on Waylon Lewis’s nerves.
Hope Williams looked between the two brothers before finally speaking up, "Waylon Lewis, I think it’s better if we talk things out nicely."
"That’s right, that’s right..." With someone backing him, Wyatt Lewis’s morale suddenly surged, "Sis-in-law, you have no idea how brutally my brother hits me, I’m almost beaten to death by him."
Waylon Lewis’s icy gaze instantly pierced towards Wyatt Lewis, who quickly shut his mouth, moved towards the corner, and once again sought rescue with his eyes looking toward Hope Williams.
Hope Williams pursed her lips, looking at Wyatt Lewis, "Your brother wouldn’t really beat you to death."
"...Sis-in-law, you’re right, there’s a difference between death and being crippled."
"..."
Hope Williams paused for a moment, "Would your brother be this angry if you did something legitimate?"
Wyatt Lewis pursed his lips tightly; the reality was that just looking at documents made him sleepy, and listening to those board members and directors droning on and on in meetings, as if chanting a tightening spell, was unbearable for him.
"Sis-in-law, I’m really not cut out for managing the company..."
Hope Williams took a deep breath, her expression turning serious.
Waylon Lewis had been brought up and strictly trained by the old master from a young age, whereas Wyatt Lewis had always lived carefree and unrestrained, acting the playboy and joining the crowd wherever it was liveliest.
In such an environment, one mature and steady with exceptional ability, the other cynical and content with comfort.
But of course, Waylon Lewis hoped that Wyatt Lewis, as a member of the Lewis Family, would also shoulder some responsibility.
Hope Williams’s brows furrowed with a slight worry, "Wyatt, what if one day your brother is incapacitated and you need to take over as president temporarily, and you don’t have the slightest capability to sustain the company, what then? Simply hand it over to someone else?"
Hope Williams’s tone was very serious.
What Hope Williams was talking about was hypothetical, as there are too many accidents in this world. Like that car accident that was unexpected, what if, one day, an accident really happened and who would shoulder the enormous estate of the Lewis Family?
The Lewis Clan hadn’t been free from turmoil either. Back then, shortly after Hope Williams married Waylon Lewis, the old mistress passed away, and the master fell ill suddenly. The master fell so quickly that it caught everyone off guard, but thankfully Waylon Lewis took charge of the company, amidst both internal and external chaos.
Of course, Waylon Lewis resolved all issues smoothly, his skills and abilities gaining full respect from everyone in the company.
But if, one day, Waylon Lewis met with an accident, and the grand Lewis Clan Group lacked a leader and no one stepped up, those coveting outsiders would immediately launch an attack. If it came to that, and Wyatt Lewis had no capabilities, would the whole family just wait for death?
The light in Wyatt Lewis’s eyes darkened, and his voice softened, "Nonsense, my brother won’t have any accidents..."
Hope Williams took another deep breath, feeling that her words were getting nowhere. Was this her point?
Hope Williams felt like she was earnestly advising a child to study hard so they could succeed later in life, but if the child couldn’t come to this realization on their own, no amount of talking would help.
Perhaps this was what Waylon Lewis also realized, hence his direct approach.
Hope Williams sighed gently, feeling extremely helpless, "You should go take care of your injuries first."
Hearing Hope Williams’s words, Wyatt Lewis didn’t hesitate at all, "Thank you, sis-in-law."
With a "swoosh," Wyatt Lewis dashed out.
Waylon Lewis clenched his teeth, not stopping him, but clearly irritated.
Hope Williams looked up and gently patted Waylon Lewis on the back, "Calm down, maybe one day, Wyatt will come around."
"I hope so," Waylon Lewis said heavily.
"The matter’s been dealt with, you go back to work. I’m heading back now," Hope Williams stood up.
Waylon Lewis’s expression darkened a bit more, "Didn’t you say you came because you missed me?"
Looking at his face that seemed to have been betrayed, Hope Williams smiled helplessly, "Alright, don’t make a fuss. I really did miss you, and I was also genuinely worried that Wyatt might be beaten to death by you. I can’t hold you up from work here."
"I’ll take you back."
"No, it’s fine, you carry on with your work."
"I like to take you back," Waylon Lewis stood up and took Hope Williams’s hand, leading her out.
Unable to refuse, Hope Williams could only agree.
Waylon Lewis opened the office door, holding Hope William’s hand, walking side by side as they left.
Thomas Hughes had been standing outside the door, and as Waylon Lewis and Hope Williams came out, he immediately greeted them, "Boss, President’s Wife."
Waylon Lewis replied, "Hmm."
Thomas Hughes raised an eyebrow; being by Waylon Lewis’s side for so long, he didn’t need to look, he could tell from the tone of voice that the Boss was in a good mood at the moment.
It was clear that the Boss was happy because the President’s Wife had come. He had thoroughly understood that with the President’s Wife’s presence, everything became negotiable, and the weather inside the Boss’s heart changed from cloudy to sunny in an instant.
"Go home and rest well, don’t overexert yourself, call me if you miss me," Waylon Lewis said tenderly to Hope Williams as they walked, immediately cautioning her when they approached steps, "Watch your step."
"Okay, don’t worry, I’m much better now, you don’t need to mind me too much."
"I’ve already told the home chef to prepare something light for lunch, you haven’t had much appetite lately, but you still need to eat a bit."
"I will, for the baby’s sake, you don’t have to worry."
"Take good care of yourself at home."
Employees passing by, overhearing this exchange, "..."
The President’s tone when speaking to his wife was so gentle it was like speaking to an ancestor.
Had they heard wrong? Was that really the President who, just moments before, could decimate someone with a single look?
And the President had been so angry moments ago, now there wasn’t a trace of that anger to be found.
"Assistant Hughes, this..."
Thomas Hughes lifted his eyebrows meaningfully, "You see, the President’s Wife is a life-saver."
It had to be said that Wyatt Lewis was truly smart to have brought in such a great protector.
The staff, having somewhat calmed their feelings, couldn’t help but exclaim, "The President’s Wife is really beautiful, with an extraordinary demeanor, her presence dominating as she walks, standing next to the President they look perfect together, we don’t stand a chance."
"Are you still dreaming of chances? Wake up, even without the President’s Wife, we are not from the same world as the President. Where would the chance come from?"
That female employee sounded somewhat unconvinced, "Who says, I heard that the President’s Wife is not some rich lady, just an ordinary woman without family background, and yet she had the chance."
"Really? The President’s Wife’s aura seems like that of a rich lady though?"
"Don’t be in disbelief, I heard it from a friend who works at the Lewis’s old mansion, she personally heard the old Chairman Lewis disapprove of this woman because she had no family background, even driving her out of the Lewis house, and apparently, this woman is quite cunning."
