Married at First Sight Chapter 5426
When it came to capability, there was nothing further to be said about Laurence. One only had to look to Longtail Group to know.When it came to status, there was even less to be said. He was the only living offspring of the legitimate branch and according to generations of inheritance, the position of family head was his. Besides, Laurence had every single one of the head’s heirlooms.His taking over was pretty much set in stone.Tony and Manny were not happy about it, and they understood why, but in the face of reality, there was nothing that could be done no matter how unhappy they were about it. They did not even dare to make a fuss about it.Those who were at odds with the father and son duo internally snickered, ‘Serves them right!’Tony and Manny usually relied on what little power they had as acting heads to suppress those of the younger generation who were even a little bit more capable. Only those who sucked up to them and licked their boots would be given higher positio

“Those who have seen the totem, you can take a good look,” Laurence said huskily, showing everybody the totem on his back. Every successive family head would bear the totem, but Laurence’s was branded into the skin of his back. Regardless, the totem was authentic. It could not be faked. The room fell silent as the senior family members inched closer for examination. Those who had not seen the totem before would widen their eyes. It had been three decades since the family had been without a real leader. While they had no idea whether the totem was real or not, the look on the senior members’ faces gave them the answer. Tony and the senior family members, along with the elites, scrutinized the totem and confirmed that it was genuine. Only then did Noelle put Laurence’s shirt down. Laurence turned around, allowing Noelle to straighten out his clothing. He then took a seat while Noelle returned to her post behind him. Her expression was stoic, and her piercing eyes would sw

“You’re back, Tony.” Spotting Tony, Manny, and Roxy, Susan got up and approached them as if she had found support. Tony made a beeline for Susan and sat where she was seated. Manny and Roxy did not have any place to sit. Susan lost her seat, too. No one offered their seat to her. It was Manny who felt bad for Susan because she could not be on her feet for too long at her age. He asked for a chair and placed it next to Tony. Susan took a seat on the chair while Manny sat on the armrest of Tony’s sofa. Roxy was a young family member. Since no one gave up their seat to Susan or Tony, the chances she could get one were nil. Manny unleashed hell in his mind. Laurence had not even assumed power. However, no one offered him a seat when he, the acting head, returned. These people must think that Manny’s reign was over. Even if Manny were to step down today, he would still be in control of Longbottom Corporation. Surely, Laurence would not oust him from the company right away.

It did not matter as the senior family members were in the same boat as Tony and Manny. Once the real head assumed power, Manny would no longer wield authority. He would just be a regular member of the family. The only exception was if Laurence allowed Manny to keep his job at Longbottom Corporation, but it was unlikely. It was only a matter of time before Manny was stripped of his position. Before Laurence even showed his face, he was already going head-to-head with Manny. Now that Laurence had the upper hand, he would not tolerate Manny staying in the company. Those who showed loyalty to Tony and Manny would not have a place once the father and son lost power. Dread washed over them because their good days were about to come to an end. They hoped that Laurence would not become the head of the family. It was their wish that Manny could finally assume the leadership role. Manny grimaced hard, and Tony’s expression was equally grim. Tony and Manny had been the acting heads

“It’s true that you look remarkably like the late family head who passed away decades ago, but even those unrelated by blood can share a resemblance. How can you prove you’re the son of the late family head?” Laurence said solemnly, “Without the family heirlooms, I wouldn’t even show my face around here or call every family member here.” The mention of the bloodline was such a low blow since his immediate family was dead. Laurence was aware of the family rules. Susan’s attempt to use the bloodline against him would not work. Susan scanned the room before her gaze fell on Laurence’s handsome face. Laurence kept his cool, looking like he had everything in the bag. She knew that a DNA test would not hold Laurence back. Still, she said, “Since you have everything, why don’t you show us the totem?” The totem was the key. In any case, the totem had always been carefully protected by the successive family heads. The totem would only be shown to everyone when a new head was takin

Roxy tore into Laurence too. The fact that Laurence got back to Havenmill more quickly caught them off guard. “Grandpa, we have lost the upper hand.” Tony replied, “I know.” They were backed into a corner. Laurence was far more cunning than they had imagined. It was bad enough that they could not get a good read on him. After years of rivalry, Tony thought he knew Laurence inside out. Yet today, Tony realized there was a lot more to him. One little mistake, and they could lose their lives. “It’s so frustrating,” Roxy murmured under her breath. Ignoring her, Tony sank his back against the seat and closed his eyes. His mind was busy figuring out ways to turn the tables. He needed to get out of the deadlock. Susan sat on an armchair in the huge living room while Laurence took the couch. Noelle, along with the bodyguards, stood behind him. The senior family members were seated while others stood, packing the living room to the brim. The crowd spilled beyond the livin

Alex smiled. “Since you’re the one treating, I believe you know which place is good and clean.”Sheila returned the smile. At that moment, the lady boss served them two glasses of soy milk. “Do you usually drink soy milk, Mr. York?” Sheila asked softly. The York family was wealthy. Since Alex

Sheila pushed the bouquet away. She said apologetically, “I won’t accept your flowers, Kent. You don’t have to buy them for me anymore.”Alex went to stand beside her discreetly. He simply stared at Kent. Kent did not like seeing Alex beside Sheila. They looked good together.“Who’s this, Shei

River twisted open the bottle cap and took a couple of sips of water. He looked at Rosalie, waiting for her to continue.“River, if you become a father in the future, will you be like Laurent? As in, so busy with work that you neglect your child. Seeing Jay like that made me feel a bit sad, and it

“No, I want to sleep at Lil’ Bun’s house. I want to go home with Lil’ Bun.”Jasmine gently tapped her son’s forehead. “If your dad hears that, he’ll definitely spank you.”“Dad wouldn’t dare hit me. I’d tell Grandpa and Granduncle. Then Grandpa and Granduncle would chase after him and beat him up.
