Married at First Sight Chapter 5430
Tony repeatedly gave his assurances.Laurence left with his bodyguards.Tony and the rest stood at the door, watching the cars leave, as the respect on his face was slowly replaced by baleful coldness.“Pops.”“Grandpa.”Manny and Roxy spoke in unison.Tony raised a hand in a signal not to say anything.He turned to go back into the house.Roxy anxiously asked her father, “Pa, are we really moving out?”She was born here and grew up here. They all saw this place as their home.It did not matter how many other houses they bought because this was their home, where they had laid their roots.Now, they had to move out, and Laurence was saying that even if they had stayed there for thirty years, it was not their home.Manny said resentfully, “What else can we do? Your grandfather already said we’re moving.“That damned Laurence is seriously heartless. He just took over, and he’s already forcing us to move out. There are so many places the family head can stay, but he just has t

“You want us to move out?” Manny asked Laurence, wide-eyed in disbelief. “We’ve lived here for thirty years—”“You might’ve lived here for thirty years, but it’s still not your home. And you were only allowed to move in because you and your father were the acting heads of the family.” Laurence retorted without reserve, leaving Manny speechless.True, so what if they had lived there for thirty years?It was not their home. It was where the head of the family lived. In the past, when there was no true heir, it passed without comment when they, as the acting heads, moved in. However, it did not mean the manor had become theirs.Tony felt aggrieved but did not show it on his face. He hurriedly chimed in, “We’ve stayed here for thirty years and the younger ones were born here and grew up here, so they’ve become accustomed to seeing it as their home. They just have to adjust, so please understand.“I appreciate why and I know it’s the rules of our family, so we’ll move, but we have live

Tony respectfully replied, “Of course.”The group exited the main house.The family members waiting outside had been waiting so impatiently that their eyes were about to pop out when they finally spotted the people inside exiting.Everyone immediately perked right up and focused their gazes on the group of people walking out.“There are so many people. We need a megaphone for everyone to hear what Uncle Tony says,” Laurence remarked.The butler immediately got the hint and went looking for a megaphone. Then he respectfully offered the megaphone to Laurence, but Laurence did not take it. Instead, he signalled to the butler to hand it to Tony.The butler hurriedly handed the megaphone to Tony instead.Tony gave the butler a long, dark look before taking it and turning to face the crowd. He cleared his throat, then said in his deep voice, “Everyone, I’m sure you’ve guessed the reason why we’ve called you all here today.“After ascertaining the authenticity of the heirlooms, we’ve

Laurence looked at Manny for a moment, then asked, “How old are you this year, if I may ask?”“Oh, I’m well into my fifties. I’m old and useless now.”“Fifties? You’re not sixty yet, so that’s not old at all. But you can retire early if you want. Since you think you’re too old to perform your duties, then you can just take an early retirement. I won’t trouble you with the company matters either.“After all, it’s the company that’s a lot of work.”The family matters only involved sending everyone gifts during the holiday season and paying respects to their departed ancestors. If arguments or conflicts arose within the family that they could not resolve themselves, they would look to the head of the family to pass judgment.There really was not much to do.In comparison to the company, his duties concerning the family were not much work at all. If the family head only dealt with family matters, he would be so idle he might end up just swatting flies to fill his free time.There wa

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

“Why isn’t my uncle back yet?” “He’s at a business dinner. He won’t be back until midnight.” Shawn’s younger sister was still in college. Now that it was winter break, she went traveling with her friends and would be back before the new year. There was no one else at the house. The aunt and niece to

“The fight was just kids being kids. Plus, it was an accident. We will take good care of Sonny and keep him from harm’s way when we get custody.” Mrs. Brown heartachingly said, “Hank, don’t go with the divorce. I can’t take it.”It never crossed her mind that fights between children could influence d

It did not sit well with Tania that her son was so thoughtful toward her daughter-in-law. It was a good thing her daughter-in-law showed more consideration than her son. “Let me try.”Tania took a bite out of the food Serenity served her. After getting a taste, Tania wanted to say that her son was a

Ring ring ring...Serenity’s cell phone rang. It was a call from Elisa.She stopped talking to Jasmine and quickly answered the call.“Serenity, where do you live?”“Brynfield.”“Okay, I’m going over now. I’m in front of your store, but you’re not open today.”Serenity said, “Sure, I’ll send you the locat
