Chapter 3305 Only Marcus could pull off such stunts.
But with the cheerful vibe around, it didn't feel right to bring the past up again.
So, Waylen politely started a nice conversation with Shawn, who was as smooth as butter.
After a bit, Waylen headed to the kitchen.
Marcus, busy cooking, mistook his dad's footsteps for Melissa's and scolded, "What are you doing here? Didn't I say rest up and chat with Mom? It's rare you all see each other these days.
" Waylen loomed behind Marcus.
Hand on his hip, he pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and snickered.
"You can't even recognize your own dad's footsteps? Your wife got the sstomp? You're losing it, boy.
" Marcus killed the stove's flame.
He faced his father, reading his stoic expression.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMarcus wasn't one to be trifled with.
Turning back to the stove, he muttered, "Roger rattedout, didn't he?" Marcus wasn't trying to deny it, so Waylen let out a relieved string of curses. "Marcus, what the heck have you done? First off, Shawn's tight with Melissa. Even if he's got quirks, you have to respect that.
You can throw cash to hush Shawn, but now his missus knows.
How you going to smooth that over? Melissa hasn't got much kin left.
The one blood relative she had's long been cremated.
In a calm, gentle tone, Marcus replied, "I just brought Shawn's family issues to light early.
There is no harm in that.
Waylen erupted, “You're slick with those weak justifications.
I reckon Melissa's just being fooled by you.
" With a smile, Marcus countered.
"Melissa isn't naive.
She figured I did right after weighing it all.
Waylen struggled to roast Marcus.
Taking a long drag from his cigarette, Waylen continued, "What about Roger? He's a big-shot VP, and you got him doing sabsurd task like that for you.
Now that it's out, you want to shuffle him off to the boonies.
Listen up, Roger's got a family.
You can't just toss him aside like that.
Marcus kept cooking, unfazed.
After a brief silence, Marcus spoke softly.
"Dad, you've been retired for a while now.
Roger's not the sguy who worked for you.
When I took over as president, he probably sawas an easy mark, so he crossed sserious lines.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe even raked in nearly two billion for himself abusing his position.
I let him off the hook for Grandpa's and your sake.
I hinted and nudged Roger, but instead of pulling back he thought he could outsmart me. Now I've had it with him.
If he won't leave willingly, he's got another option: jail.
" Waylen was floored.
Marcus turned around slowly, a smile playing on his lips.
"I reckon smart folks know what's best.
Regaining his composure, Waylen asked, “Did you set him up on purpose?" Marcus didn't deny it.
Waylen didn't press further.
He quietly smoked, gave Marcus a pat on the shoulder, and said son, you've grown. "
But he added, "You can play hardball with others all you want but with your partner Melissa, you should tread carefully.
