Chapter 1215
Moreover, some of the parents might pass their unfulfilled dreams to their kids. Thus, kids were important to the parents.Lily was taken aback. In her memory, Jacob was the rebellious one, while Andy had always been the obedient sibling. She could not believe that he was shouting at her now. "You're shouting at me because of that jinx?!" Lily began. "Her kids aren't my grandchildren! I won't acknowledge her kids!""Mom, please stop," Andy said. "I love her, and that's all that matters. Even more importantly, she is pregnant. You can say whatever you want behind our backs, but if you keep saying those things in front of her, don't blame me…"He did not finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he wanted to say. His parents were stunned, and it seemed to them that Andy was serious this time. He could tolerate his parents' unreasonable behavior up to a certain point, but there were boundaries to his patience and understanding.-Andy took a day off the next day and went with Ell
Chapter 1216
"I don't really know what's going inside your head! I've never seen someone as idiotic as you!" Andy shouted.He could not believe that Jacob actually trusted that Ava would marry him. He was certain that Ava would turn away and ignore Jacob once she escaped punishment. He had seen ass-kissers, but none quite like Jacob. He had been nearly beaten to death, yet he wanted to forgive them because Ava said she wanted to marry him.Andy persisted in his own opinion. Whether Ava and her group went to prison or not did not matter as long as they gave the money. "I believe in Ava!" Jacob said.Andy glanced at Jacob and said, "Whether you believe in her or not is your business. I also have a family to support. Even though I'm your brother, you still owe me 150,000 dollars. You need to pay me back the money!"He had had enough of Jacob. If Jacob chose to believe in Ava, he could do nothing. Although he was Jacob's brother, Jacob was a grown man and had to bear the consequences of his act
Chapter 1217
Jacob had no intention of returning the money, and Andy chose not to confront the issue. He was busy managing the Innova Group and arranging his wedding with Elly. He wanted to provide a perfect ceremony, and it had to be done before Elly's bump became noticeable.Andy kept the guest list small. He did not invite relatives from the Bikmans but invited quite a lot of employees from the Innova Group, Williams Corp., and Sonnex Corp. "When are you two going to get your wedding done?" Pierce asked.Even though Eric and Sylvia had been registered for several years and were about to have a child, they had not held a wedding yet.Sylvia smiled. "There's no rush for now. Everyone has been quite busy recently." She felt that Eric was not ready yet.Pierce nodded. "If you can't find the time, let the Combat Department arrange it. They can organize a special wedding for you." Eric was a Lieutenant General, and Sylvia was considered part of the Combat Department, so they were entitled to
Chapter 1218
Pierce visited Salt City not only to attend Andy's wedding but also to explore the possibility of the Innova Group venturing into certain areas.Although there were domestic military-industrial enterprises, the costs were too high, the technological capabilities were limited, and the process of updates and upgrades was exceptionally slow.Products from a decade ago were still in use today. Although they emphasized that those devices were stable and reliable, why not pursue advancement if they had the capability? Eric was not well-versed in the production of military-grade products. However, he understood that military-grade electronics might not always be the most cutting-edge but were undoubtedly the most reliable. Civilian and military applications were entirely different. If the Innova Group were to take on this challenge, it could be considered crossing into another industry."Are you planning to entrust this business to the Innova Group?" Eric asked cautiously.He hesitated
Chapter 1219
If Eric were to utilize his authority and connections, he could undoubtedly secure substantial orders for the Innova Group. The domestic market alone could bring a lot of profit to the Innova Group. However, Eric had refrained from doing so as he did not want the thing that Sylvia mentioned from happening.While initially presenting as a device manufacturer, the Innova Group had progressively transitioned to becoming a communication solution provider in recent years. After all, the production of devices was bound to reach a saturation point sooner or later, but solutions were always a valuable and huge market.Pierce chuckled. "It's all for the sake of information security. The Innova Group's technology and devices have been market-tested. In fact, the military has tested your equipment, and the testing team provided high praise. As for your concern, it's an even smaller issue. You just do what you have to do. You don't have to care about what other people say!" Sylvia glanced at E
Chapter 1220
This was life. The poor had their struggles, and the wealthy had their worries. Eric did not exactly yearn for the days when he earned only 1,000 dollars a month, as that was the darkest chapter in his life that he had rather not revisit.The Innova Group had enough employees to handle all the projects, so Eric did not have to constantly supervise the operation.While Andy and Elly were still on their honeymoon, the care of the two children fell temporarily to Eric and Sylvia.In the evening, Eric even had to help his nephews with their homework, which he found less than enjoyable.When Cody said that they still had to review and correct their homework, Eric was irritated. He asked, "Honey, back when we were in elementary school, did the teacher not correct the homework themselves? Why do parents have to do it?"He was rather exasperated. It would be acceptable if parents merely had to check whether the child had completed the homework, but making parents review it was a bit too m
Chapter 1221
After teaching the boys to finish their homework, Eric felt exhausted. They were just in elementary school, yet he felt some of the questions were deep.Instead of enhancing children's learning capabilities, the questions seemed more like brain teasers, playing around with words. How could elementary school children understand these things?...After sending the boys to school in the morning, Eric dropped Sylvia off at the Williams residence to keep her company while Eric went to work. After all, it was livelier at the Williams residence, and Sylvia was bored at home alone.When Eric arrived at the Innova Group, Jacob actually showed up for work! His injuries might have improved quite a bit, but it still wasn't time for him to return to work yet."What are you doing here? Are all your injuries healed? If something happens, who's going to be responsible?"Jacob smiled. "I'm here to work. If I don't work, I'll have to go hungry."Eric frowned. He had heard from Andy that Jacob had
Chapter 1222
Jacob was asking for trouble. He was broke, so he had to settle all of his meals in the company's cafeteria. After lunch, he called Andy to ask for money.Unfortunately, Andy and Elly were enjoying their honeymoon, so Andy didn't answer his call. Andy also knew that Jacob was calling to ask for money.Since Jacob was penniless, he had no choice but to turn to Eric. After all, he wasn't familiar with the new security guard."Mr. Johnson!" He knocked on the door with a smile and entered Eric's office.Eric was preparing to take a nap.He glanced at Jacob and asked, "What's up?""Mr. Johnson, do you have some money on you?"He was feeling a bit embarrassed.Eric drove a pricey car, so Jacob thought that someone like him should have some money on him.Eric instantly knew what Jacob wanted to do. "You want to borrow money? I don't have any money."Jacob exclaimed, "Really, Mr. Johnson? My brother told me that your car costs a fortune, and you have a private plane. It costs million
