Now, back to Philip. After he hung up the phone, he went back to where he was. In the end, the seniors around him started to

mumble in disdain. They moved away from him as if he was the plague. “What’s going in? He’s an adult and he’s still

embarrassing himself.” “Martha is so unlucky to have a son-in-law like him.” “Ew, let’s go. I smell a disgusting fox among us.”

Philip backed away to one side after listening to the cruel accusations and jeers from everyone. He

leaned against the wall and crossed his arms to watch what was going on. Aiden saw Philip’s ordeal

and was feeling amazing. He flipped him off with glee. Under the heated gaze of the seniors, he

straightened his suit and walked over to the manager and staff. “Hello, Sir. Can I help you?” The

manager was a woman. Her face was pointy and she had a tiny waist. She was thin but still looked

stunning. She was wearing a black business attire with a white patterned shirt that made her look

skilled and experienced. “Are you the manager here?” Aiden asked with a handsome smile on his face.

He looked at the woman and thought that she looked pretty. If possible, he wanted to make her his

secretary or personal assistant. “Yes, Sir. However, our company is going through some changes these

few days. So, if it’s about business, I’m afraid you’ll have to come back in a few days.” Judy Walter

answered politely. She noticed that the seniors who were blocking the door had asked this handsome

man to help them. Plus, from what she could gather, he had quite a position in society.

He might even know her boss. “I know what your company does. It’s no use telling me that. I’m going to

tell you to return the seniors their money. I’ve already asked my father to contact your president. I might

have an answer in a while.” “And my house,” Martha stood at one side and said when she saw the

opportunity. “Don’t worry, Aunty Martha. I’ll help you ask for it back.” Aiden nodded his head and said.

However, his smirk betrayed what he was really thinking. It felt good to be in the limelight, indeed. Judy

smiled and apologized, “I’m sorry, Sir. This is business-related, so I have no right to make a decision.

Since you know our president, please wait patiently or perhaps, you can ask him to drop by?” It was not

strange that Judy would not believe Aiden. Return their money? Sorry, but it was impossible unless the

president came here and returned the money himself. After she said that, Aiden’s face fell. He glanced

at Judy’s nametag coldly and said, “Manager Judy, right? I’m Aiden Grant. I’m the CEO of Stardream

Media. My father is Gordon Grant, and he’s the chairman of Splendor Education Group. You should

have heard of it, right? Do you think I’m making this up?” When he said that, Aiden could not hide the

glee in his eyes. His father was the chairman of Splendor Education Group. Their asset was worth

more than one billion! They were the leading education group in Riverdale! Plus, they had close

connections with the education bureau. It could be said that if you were living in Riverdale and you

were educated, then you would be connected to Splendor. There were more than ten education

institutions under Splendor including schools. Splendor was everywhere from kindergartens, primary

schools, and even universities. This was why Aiden was superior to most people. Judy frowned when

she heard that. She smiled lightly and said, “Mr. Grant, it’s not that we’re not returning the money. It’s

just that we have to wait for our president to make a statement. Why don’t you call him and ask him?”

Judy knew she could not offend Aiden, so she could only decline him as politely as she could. “Alright,

just you wait. I’ll call him now.” Aiden did not want to cause trouble for this woman as well.

He turned around and called his father after taking out his phone. “Hey, Dad. What’s the progress?”

“I’m very busy now. I don’t have time. Don’t call me for minor things like this. I know Mr. Collins from

Lucrative Funds Finance Company, but you’re just making assumptions about him. Aren’t you cutting

off his source of income?” On the other end of the phone, Gordon scolded him angrily. “Come back

here right this instant. Don’t get yourself involved in this. Do you know who’s supporting Mr. Collins

behind his back?” Aiden was stunned. He did not expect his father to not help him.

Was this little company difficult to deal with? “Who? Are they better than us?” Aiden asked. “Theo Zander!” Gordon said firmly.

“That’s enough. Get your *ss back here right now. I won’t be able to help you if you get into trouble.” Theo’s name was enough to

get Gordon’s attention. A person who was born a thug and ended up with a legitimate business should not be viewed lightly.

Aiden was shocked when he heard Theo’s name. He started to panic. His face fell and darkened. He hung up the call, and the

seniors surrounded him to ask him a ton of questions. “How is it, Aiden? Is it solved? Can we get our money back? Can I get my

house back too?” Martha was impatient to know the result. “Hey, it’s Aiden Grant we’re talking about. If he’s willing to stand up for

us, then of course he’ll be able to solve this! Right, Mr. Grant?” someone asked. “Yeah, Mr. Grant is handsome and skilled. Plus,

he’s the young master of Splendor. This kind of thing is a piece of cake for him.” Looking at the fervent gazes of the seniors,

Aiden knew he was in deep trouble. He had just made a huge promise to them and it would be embarrassing if he said he could

not solve it now. Plus, Martha was involved in this.
