Chapter 84 David did not dare to say a word after being yelled at. His hatred toward James secretly
brewed in his heart. ‘Mom wasn’t like this in the past. She would lower her head and beg the Callahans
for the money. Now, she doesn’t bat an eye even with the money being sent right to her door.
‘Everything changed because of James,’ thought David. The visit from Howard’s family had completely
ruined the family dinner. After dinner, the family sat on the sofa and watched the replay of the Blithe
King’s succession ceremony while James cleaned the dishes in the kitchen. David approached Thea
and whispered, “Thea, you have to persuade Mom. It’s all money. Do you know what twenty percent of
the family shares means? On top of that, Grandpa is giving you back the position of executive

Do you know how much authority you’d have? Aren’t you aware of how much money our uncle took in
secret as the executive chairman these past few years? Tommy doesn’t even work but drives a car
worth more than a million dollars.” David was extremely jealous of Tommy. They were all from the
Callahans, yet there was such a huge difference between them. Now was their chance to climb high,
but his mom suddenly became dense and did not even want the money sent to their doorstep. Thea did
not want the family relationship to be so cold. She knew her grandfather very well. He was just a little
prideful and really wanted to lead the Callahans to the top, becoming a rich and powerful household.
Over the years, everyone in the Callahans had worked toward achieving Lex’s goal. “I’ll talk to her.”
“You must convince Mom!” “I’ll try my best.” Thea got up and sat beside Gladys. “Mom!” Gladys, who
was focused on the ‘TV, turned around and looked at her. “Yeah? Is something the matter? “Mom,
haven’t you always wanted to be able to raise your head proudly in front of your malden family.
This time will be a good opportunity Grandpa wants us to return to the family and will pive us plenty of
shares. I’ll also be able to continue being the executive chairman. You’ll be able to tell your maiden
family with your chin held high if I’m the executive chariah, right?” said’thed. Gladys sighed gently.
“Urgh Thea, don’t you already know what kind of person your grandíather is? He is being generous
now because he needs you. When you’re no longer valuable to him, he’ll get rid of you. He’ll take back
the shares he’s giving to us sooner or later.” “It’s a matter of the future, and we can figure out
something when the time comes,” Thea tried her best to persuade her. “Mom, I’m sorry I’ve been an
embarrassment to you over the years. It’s because of me that you couldn’t raise your head in front of

you, your grandfather would not even look at your father. Your father is useless and didn’t fight for
anything. It’s the reason his status in the family is so low. All the other family members are working in
Eternality, buying cars and houses, while your dad had to get a mortgage for our house,” Gladys said
with disappointment on her face. Benjamin was excellent in all aspects when he was in school. She
never expected him to be so timid and honest. He was a manager, but he refused to get involved in
embezzlement. “Mom, let’s go back.” James finished washing the dishes, and he overheard the
conversation when he walked out of the kitchen. “You don’t have to be so anxious, Thea. The
Callahans are begging you right now. Since Mom and Dad have always been disrespected in the family
for all these years, this would be a good opportunity to take back what is rightfully yours.” “You talk too
much, trash! I’m warning you, James. You shouldn’t be interrupting our family affairs!” David cursed
and growled. Initially, David had a bit of goodwill toward James because he helped to persuade Gladys
to buy him a car Now, he only had hatred toward him. James sat down, took out a cigarette, and lit it.
He also handed one to Benjamin who was focused on watching TV “Dad, have a cigarette”
