If James did not want a divorce, she would not divorce him.
James always hated Jay for ruining his reputation every time, and his long-term grudges finally exploded. "Jay Ares, I'll say this again. This is my family's matter. It's none of your business.’’
Jay's eagle eyes narrowed. He was not a man of patience to begin with and having to repeatedly deal with the affairs of James and his families made him impatient. James’ words, like a fuse, instantly evoked his resentment.
Both the uncle and nephew looked at each other with dissatisfaction in their gazes. James, the taciturn sheep, had rebelled at last. Jay, on the other hand, trampled on the etiquette and inferiority between an uncle and nephew.
With two pairs of eyes staring down each other, a duel without gunpowder had begun.
"You don’t want me to meddle in your affairs?
"Third Uncle wants to live in a separate house, is that i t?"
James had wanted to branch out from the family earlier on. This way, he could attain his own portion of the family property and live the life of debauchery. He would then no longer need to be overly cautious.
He just did not know how many shares would Grand Old Master Ares give him.
"Hmph, if I'm going to live separately, then a quarter of Ares Enterprises' shares has to be given to me. Are you willing to do so?"
Jay chuckled lightly. "You won’t receive a single penny!"
Hearing this, James roared furiously, "Jay Ares... Do you think the Ares family is so brilliant only because o f you? Without the management of us elders, do you think you could have prospered so quickly? You want t o swallow up the big family business all alone, don't you?"
The younger man said unhurriedly, "Ares Enterprises i s Grandpa's property. You and I are merely his employees. According to the employment agreement, i f you want to resign, you don't get a single penny. Of course, whether or not Grandpa would give you extra pay isn't up to me."
James was shocked. "When did Grand Old Master Ares revise the property distribution agreement?"
"The day after Grand Old Master Ares’ birthday."
"Xavier’s death had moved Grand Old Master Ares greatly, so he made the decision to donate all of the Ares family's property."
