The Simons couple came to the beach villa a week after Sebastian Simons had moved out. The three of them sat across each other. Sebastian said darkly, "What do you want from me?"
"Are you really going to stay here forever and never step into the Mansion House again?"
"I'm not sure about that, but I don't intend to go back now."
Titus Simons snorted angrily. "Even if your mother and I were in the wrong, you shouldn't leave us alone. What do you regard your home as? A hotel that you can come and leave whenever you want?"
"I'll never go back then," Sebastian said.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
Titus was furious. "Well, it's fine if you don't want to come back. This is the first and the last time that I would come here and ask you to come home. There won't be a second time. Let me put it bluntly. If you don't come back, I won't leave a penny to you. After I die, I will donate all of my property."
Sebastian sneered, "Do whatever you want. I'm going to set up my own company anyway."
"You..."
Titus' chest hurt out of anger. Madam Simons didn't say a word from the beginning to end, she was just dwelling in her tears at the side. "From tomorrow on, you will take charge of Simons Corporation again. This way, you wouldn't obsess about having grandchildren all day long until you lose the basic principles of a human being." Sebastian said sarcastically.
"I'll ask you one more time. Are you serious?"
"Yes."
Sebastian's affirmation infuriated Titus. He was also a stubborn man when he was young. Sebastian was somewhat similar to his father in certain aspects.
"I'll take over the company then! Don't think that I've lost touch with the business field just because I've left five years ago. Don't think that Simons Corporation wouldn't be able to last without you. Everyone will still move on with their lives even if you're not here!"
"That's good then. I hope that after returning to the business industry, you can make Simons Corporation great again," he said.
At this time, the father and son duo had completely turned against each other, and Madam Simons was stuck between them. Apart from being sad, there was nothing else she could do to change the situation.
Sebastian called Fynn to meet him that night and asked, "How's the registration of the new company going?"
"It has been registered successfully."
Fynn Jaymond then sighed, "President Sebastian, are you really going to set up a new business?"
"Yes," he answered. "What about me? I'm grateful to Old Master Simons for the chance that he had given me, and I'm grateful for your guidance. I'm in a difficult position now." Fynn frowned.
"You can stay in Simons Corporation."
"Why?"
"My father has not been involved in the company's affairs for five years. He needs an outstanding person to help him." Sebastian said in a low voice.
Fynn was stunned and smiled knowingly, "I thought you were really going to draw a clear line with Simons Corporation. In the end, you are just throwing a tantrum at your father."
A month later, Sebastian's new company was officially established. It was called Yaslor Corporation. People who knew him all understood the deep meaning behind the name of Yaslor.
Leah joined his company and became his female secretary. The girl had a petite figure, but she was very clever. When Sebastian met her in a nightclub, Leah was still a junior in a university. Because her family was poor, she went to the nightclub to work as a part-timer. Once, she was sexually harassed by several perverts and was rescued by Sebastian in time. They had known each other since then. During the days when Abigail Tanner was still in Simons family, Leah had teamed up with Sebastian to put on a lot of shows, eventually winning his trust.
Time passed day by day. Yasmine lived her life, and Sebastian, his. Although they could not forget each other, they had never contacted each other...
Two years passed just like that. Yaslor had grown from a small company with a few people to a corporation with nearly a thousand employees. By contrast, Simons Corporation that was once under Sebastian's lead was falling apart day by day. It was not because Titus was operating it badly, but because someone was creating trouble in the company. The culprits had joined forces with several small firms to bring down Simons Corporation. Claudine Tucker bought a large number of shares in Simons Corporation, trying to devour it bit by bit.
Under such circumstances, Titus was under a lot of pressure, but he was still unwilling to seek help from his son. Sebastian even offered to help him several times, but he refused stubbornly.
