My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 402

Stefan whispered to Martin, "Dad, it seems like Jordan's brother treats him very well."

Martin smiled and nodded, feeling extremely relieved.

Since ancient times, many heirs of wealthy families fought and even killed each other for the throne and assets.

For example, Brad and Alex may be brothers but they wouldn't even greet each other when they met because they were each trying to take full ownership of the Howards' assets.

However, Jesse and Jordan were different.

As the eldest son, Jesse actually took the initiative to give the businesses to Jordan, just so that Jordan would be able to hold his head high and not be bullied by the Howards.

Jesse looked at Lauren and said, "Miss Howard, please sign it."

Lauren was not a money-grubber so it was naturally awkward for her to sign it.

Jordan said to Lauren, "Lauren, since this is a token of goodwill from Jesse and Yumi to us, you can accept it."

Lauren was not a wishy-washy person. She lifted the pen and signed her name. Afterward, she handed the contract over to someone from the Howards for safekeeping.

There was intense applause in the venue!

"Congratulations, Mr. Howard Sr.! All the bars in the UK

now belong to your granddaughter!" "Haha, I'm flying to the UK the day after tomorrow. Old Howard, if I order two more bottles of whisky, you're not allowed to charge me!"

Martin thanked, "Thank you all for giving us the honor. You're welcome to patronize our bars. The Steeles and the Howards will entertain you the best we can!"

Martin was extremely proud and dignified too.

Why had he been so desperate to become in-laws with the Steels over the years?

It was because of this!

The Steeles were doing too well abroad and it was common for the rich to expand their businesses to other countries. Hence, having power abroad is a very important capital!

Now that the Howards and the Steeles were becoming in-laws, the local families would think of the Howards even more highly!

Jesse said to Lauren, "The Steeles have investments in various fields around the world, not just bars. Find some time to go to England with Jordan and meet my grandfather so that you can find out more about our family's business. When the time comes, take over whatever business you fancy. You don't need to ask me and Yumi for our opinion."

Like many Japanese women, Yumi behaved very gently. "Yes, your brother and I don't feel much about money, just take whatever you like."

Jesse nodded coolly and said, "Yes, don't worry about Jamie either. He idles about and has fun all day and night. He might not come home even when it's time to split the inheritance and assets."

Hearing this, the guests at the scene were stunned, especially those rich and pretty women who were filled with jealousy that was about to drive them mad!

"My goodness, since Jordan's brothers don't want their share of the inheritance, the Steeles' assets would all belong to Jordan and Lauren!"

"It is said that the Steeles assets amount to hundreds of billions, even trillions! They are the richest family in the world!"

"What? Is that true? Wouldn't Lauren become the richest woman in the world then!?"

"Ah! Hurry up and suck up to Lauren. She might end up being the first-ever female trillionaire!"

Listening to the crowd's discussion about Lauren, a beautiful woman's eyes were deadpan and she was trembling incessantly!

The woman was none other than Hailey!
