YM778.TV Chapter 892 892: You Are Really A Pest
He resented his eldest brother and said nothing to explain, but he also loved him and wanted to share the burden he was carrying. Although Joseph was the family\'s eldest son, they were siblings, and he was no longer a small child that needed his care, so why did he choose not to tell him everything?
That was why he was so angry now. However, his loud noise did not attract many reactions from Joseph. On the contrary, he looked calmer.
After Joseph went silent for a few minutes, his tone was light, "Are you done? Sign on it."
Jordan\'s chest was panting heavily, and his mood was triggered. He clenched fists, unhappy, and was staring at Joseph.
It took a long time before he sat down, and he was calmer than he had just looked. Thinking for a while.
Joseph looked at his appearance, lips slightly raised, a little helpless, but looked indulging towards his little brother.
Jordan\'s anger was gone analyzing the situation. And so, he panted and said, "I do not care about the shares at all, and I do not even need to see this. I can sign it immediately, but brother, you cannot always treat me as a child."
Joseph leaned over slightly and then adjusted his posture. Finally, he said, "Trust me, you are always a child in my eyes."
Jordan sneered at him and signed the documents.

It was revealed that two of Joseph\'s resolutions were not unanimously endorsed by the board.
The media began to speculate whether there was a competition for power within the Runestone Group, and Roy\'s retreat from the huge management responsibility was brought out with the incident. Some experts claimed that since Henry\'s death, Joseph had been "The mighty emperor favored by heaven to make orders."
On the other hand, Roy was referred to as the "prince" who barely had enough power to go against Joseph and was likely a fawn by shareholders. Joseph\'s rapid decision to marry Irish was also regarded as a brilliant move to favor his plan.
Those experts conjectured that it was a counteroffensive of the Lake family since the decision was declined. And some others even made an assay plan while Ruby was pushed into a tight corner again.
Some media thought that Ruby was determined to run counter against Joseph, and the dog packs even disclosed that to break up with Ruby, Joseph used Emery, Ruby\'s old flame, to break up with his wife. And soon, it aroused people\'s interest in the relationship between Ruby and Emery.
Shirley slammed the newspaper on the tea table indignantly. "What\'s wrong with you? You\'re not even making any plans to defend the interests of our family. Look at what those so-called experts said!" Shirley roared irritably.
Ruby kept silent and then collected the newspaper together.
"What\'s more, look at their comments about your brother. They said he was incompetent and incapable of making strong decisions. I am going to sue them for slander," Shirley added.
"Mom, don\'t take it seriously. There is no use arguing with them," Ruby explained helplessly.
"Let them go? But those people won\'t let us go, especially Joseph. So you better persuade your brother to relinquish his administrative authority as soon as possible."
"How can I persuade him?" He doesn\'t want to inherit this company but to be a captain," Ruby responded.
"Try to keep in with those shareholders with your uncle. I mean, those shareholders joined in recently."
"They all stand at the same united decision with Joseph," Ruby heaved a deep sigh.
Those shareholders only pay great attention to the huge profit.
"I don\'t care who they stand with. What is important is where they can make a profit. They will suffer a huge profit loss if Joseph decides to get more financing support. On the contrary, showing them that you are trying to protect their interest and you share a common goal, surely you can persuade them to sign an agreement with you."
Heaving a sigh, Ruby then replied in a low voice, "Mom, it is not as simple as you think. Those shareholders did get more profit as Joseph ran the company, so they all trusted him. Even if I ask Uncle William to compete with Joseph, it is hard to maintain the present status of Runestone Group."
Shirley was too disappointed to hear this and patted Ruby, utterly embarrassed. "If you didn\'t divorce him, things wouldn\'t have gotten so worse."
Ruby was too helpless to persuade her mother. Hesitant, she finally said, "Mom, I just pretended to get married to him. We are not real couples then, but we maintain the marriage status to follow the father\'s order."
"I know. I mean..." But before Shirley could finish her sentence, Emery stepped forward to get some water for them. Seeing this, Shirley became more irritated and snarled, "You are really a pest!"
Shocked, Emery stopped with her mouth opened slightly.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Ruby was annoyed to hear what her mother had said.
"Did I say something wrong?" Shirley\'s anger rose, and she turned to Emery. "You won\'t be pushed into such a tight corner without her. I am sure you clearly know how she obtained the share of the Lake family. She is the pest, and she caused you so much trouble," Shirley thundered.
"Mom, it has nothing to do with Emery," Ruby stood up to defend Emery.
"Why do I have a daughter like you? Why can\'t you have a normal sexual orientation? What can she help you with? If you insist on living with her, you will get in more and more trouble. Your life will be destroyed by this woman someday!"
After hearing this, Emery lowered her head and kept silent.
"Emery, get back to the bedroom," Ruby said softly.
Emery walked away without saying anything, but her face was pale.
"Break up with her immediately!" Shirley shouted.
"Mom, don\'t interfere with my life!"
"You will be destroyed if I keep leaving you alone. You come from such a notable family, but you insist on managing a cake shop. Are you out of your mind? It must be Emery who led you astray."
Ruby didn\'t respond to her mother this time since she felt her head buzzing.

Lilith was drunk and still went to a bar celebrating a friend\'s birthday with her old classmates. The girl kept displaying affection before them while everyone around them began to kick up a fuss.
Lilith stayed there and drank one after another.
One of her classmates took out Lilith\'s phone and was about to give a call to Lilith\'s boyfriend. However, Lilith stopped her and only drank there silently. She was completely put in a coma.
