Chapter 38
Franklin subconsciously glanced at the tower not far away. He then waved his hand in denial and said, "I have eaten and slept well these past few years. Why would I have heart disease?"
Jacob remained silent. He was heartbroken.
Mark was wiping off the cold sweat on his forehead. When he heard their conversation, he rolled his eyes, took two steps forward and said loudly, "What a pity that this father and son don't even know each other!"
Mark pushed away the security guard who was standing in front of him, and stretched out his hand, "Mr. Lynch, it was all a misunderstanding just now. Don't take it to heart!" NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Everyone was silently looking at Mark's performance. Zayn smiled, Mr. Walton remained silent, Jerry didn't care, and the beautiful lady ignored him. Franklin gritted his teeth, but still stretched out his hand and shook Mark's.
He had to maintain his son's reputation. No matter how much he hated the man in front of him, he still had to show tolerance in public.
"Dad..." Jacob pushed his father's hand away. He gave Mark a cold-eyed stare. "Just ignore him. Don't get our hands dirty."
"Ah, I was wrong just now, but as the saying goes, don't blame those who don't know the situation..." Mark looked embarrassed, but at the same time, angry.
Soon, the agreement was taken down and handed over by Zayn to the beautiful lady.
Under everyone's attention, the beautiful lady went up to Jacob, put down the agreement, and handed him a pen. She looked at Jacob with respect and said softly, "Sir, please!"
Jacob took the pen and pulled his father over, "Dad, come here. Please sign."
"What am I signing?" Franklin shook his head.
He tucked the pen into his father's hand and replied, "I told you I'm going to give you a present. This is it. After you sign, Oriental Tower will be yours."
"Oriental Tower? Mine?" Franklin was so shocked that he took a long breath to calm himself down.
Jacob wrapped his arms around his father's shoulders. "Dad, you left here with nothing six years ago, but today, I want you to be the owner of this tower."
Franklin's body trembled, and tears welled up in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he smiled. He picked up the pen and signed his name on the agreement.
Seeing over one billion assets being traded so easily, Mr. Walton from the Department of Commerce frowned in regret.
He blamed himself for being the one who instructed the arrest of both father and son.
It might be a misunderstanding, but if the board finds out...
Mr. Walton quickly turned his attention to Kevin who mentioned that Jacob was his relative.
Mark, who had never thought that Franklin would experience a reversal of fortune was even more apprehensive than Mr. Walton.
The agreement was carefully drafted and finally printed after several revisions by Mark. When the agreement was signed, the entire Oriental Tower would become Franklin's private property.
Mark wasn't sure if Franklin was going to even their conflict with him later or just laughed it off! Mark's forehead broke out in a cold sweat.
"From now on, you are the owner of Oriental Tower!"
The beautiful lady closed her file and congratulated Franklin. He was the father of her superior, so she had to respect him.
The owner of the Oriental Tower? Franklin was proud to be back again. Six years ago, he had to lower his head and walk out of the tower, but now, he could chin up and chest out again.
Jacob smiled while looking at the changes in his father's emotion. "Dad, do you like this present?"
Franklin nodded. He stretched his hand out and patted Jacob's arms.
He breathed a long sigh of relief while thinking back to the past. He frowned and gave everyone a cold- eyed stare. "So, everyone in this tower will have to listen to me."
