Chapter 380 I Want to Hear What You Think

The power struggle between the Griffith Group and Olson Pharmaceuticals was getting heated, and

while Alexander had been careful not to bring this up in front of the rest of the Griffiths, it didn’t stop

them from worrying either. With immense pressure from the family, Adam had no choice but to have

Alexander return home so they could get to the bottom of the brewing business war. Alexander had

wanted to keep Elise out of the murky situation, but her insistence had worn him down and he

eventually agreed to let her participate in the Griffiths’ family conference.

Upon arriving at the Griffith Residence, Elise and Alexander saw that nearly everyone in the family had

turned up and there were even a few unfamiliar faces. They had all squeezed themselves into the living

room and seemingly filled up every available space. These were all relatives whose livelihoods

depended on the success of the Griffiths and Griffith Group.

When Jonah had been in charge, his authority had overpowered any rumor or threat that loomed over

the company’s reputation. However, now that Alexander had taken over his grandfather’s place, the

sudden and seismic shifts that happened were making everyone uneasy.

In particular, they had heard from some unconfirmed sources that the only reason why Alexander was

waging war against the Olson Family was because he wanted to avenge his fiancée; while this alone

did not sit well with the rest of the Griffiths, there were also some who started to question his ability to

lead the company. After all, none of them cared about a woman’s dignity and they certainly didn’t think

it was worth gambling on the family fortune. As such, they treated Elise as the cause of all this and her

faults far outweighed Alexander’s lapse of judgment.

Presently, as she walked into the house, everyone—even the most distant of the Griffiths who had

never met her before—eyed her with unadulterated hostility. If looks could kill, she would have died

from a thousand cuts the moment she walked past the threshold.

Meanwhile, upon noticing his family’s unfriendly gaze, Alexander blinked and took Elise’s hand in his.

He was unfazed and his gestures were slow and steady. He had as good as told everyone that Elise

was his woman, his only choice, and anyone who dared to scorn her would do well to remember their

place.

Elise, on the other hand, had been expecting something like this way before their arrival. Her

expression had betrayed nothing and despite the circumstances, she was centered and unfazed.

Indeed, her stature and her temperament did not sit well with a lot of people. Alexander had been

fielding controversies left and right ever since he coupled with her, but maybe he would finally make a

decision today.

“Don’t just stand there. Take a seat,” Madeline said, breaking the long and stifling silence. Elise had

intended to cross over and boldly take her seat among the Griffiths, but at that moment, Alexander said

drily, “No, thanks. It’s getting late and I’d like to drop Elise home as soon as possible. Whatever it is you

have to say, just come right out with it.” “Will you take a look at that? Are the elders gathered here

today nothing more than chopped liver compared to some woman—some outsider?

I don’t know how any of you see it, but I think this boy’s gone stupid from love!” The man who said

those words shook his head in disapproval. He was a senior family member who made sure to criticize

in that exact capacity. When everyone else heard this, they muttered their agreement, though they

dared not speak up against Alexander directly.

They worried about no one but themselves, but feigned concern for the whole family and assumed a

self-righteous air as though they were fighting for a just cause. Alexander narrowed his eyes

dangerously as he zoomed on the man who made that scathing remark before he withdrew his gaze as

a form of pointed ignorance.

Then, his eyes flickered over to Adam instead. “I want to hear what you think, Dad,” he said calmly.
