Chapter 1262 The Turner Family Has Changed.
Brandon glanced at Jeremy, frowning slightly.
“There has been a sudden change in the Turner family ever since you ran away from home,” Brandon said.
Janet’s beautiful eyes narrowed as she asked, “A sudden change?” Brandon nodded.
“Luke fell seriously ill after that, and Catherine desperately tried to seek medical help for him. With no one in charge, the Turner
family was in complete chaos.”
He continued to explain in a low voice, “At that time, a man named Jeremy Button appeared. Not only did he stabilize the
situation in the Turner family, but he also acquired a significant portion of the Turner family’s shares. Now, he is the largest
shareholder of the Turner family’s business.”
Jlooked at the man who was surrounded by a group of people and treated with great respect by the members of the Turner
family.
“I think he must be Jeremy Button,” she said.
Brandon took a sip of red wine, a playful smile lingering on his lips.
“The Turner family has almost bechis property. This man seems to be very resourceful.” Shocked, Jcouldn’t quite
process the situation.
The Turner family used to reign over the leading industries in Barnes.

Jcould not believe that in the short tshe was away from home, things had already gotten so much worse.
She was skeptical about someone pulling strings to cause the downfall of the Turner family.
Tilting her head, Jlooked at Brandon questioningly and asked, “Did you have anything to do with this?”
Brandon raised his brows and (flashed a contemptuous smile.
“I won’t bother doing anything behind the scene for the measly Turner family.”

Although Jwas now sure that Brandon did not have anything to do with the Turner family’s affairs, she couldn’t help feeling
an hint of unease in her heart ever since she met Jeremy.
She sensed that something bad would happen.
Jpondered for a while and said, “But I have a feeling that this Jeremy is very suspicious.” She had never heard of such a
figure in Barnes before, so where did this Jeremy cfrom and how did he quickly take over the Turner family? Janet’s tone
becserious all of a sudden as she said, “This guy just givesthe creeps. Was the cake thing really just a coincidence?”
After all the perilous situations that she and Brandon had been through, she was naturally more cautious now.
She was afraid that someone else might show up out of the blue to cause trouble.
Brandon tapped his fingers on the tabletop, lost in thought.
“You’re right. The timing of his appearance is just too suspicious. I’ll have my people investigate him,” he assured. After Jeremy
returned to his seat, the members of the Turner family seemed hesitant to say what they wanted to.
Jeremy glanced at them questioningly, a faint smile playing on his lips. “Just say what you want to.
Did you seriously askto cover just to have dinner?”

After exchanging glances among themselves, an elderly member of the Turner family spoke up.
“Mr. Button, you know how peculiar Mr. Turner’s illness is, and how rapidly it has been developing. However, the Turner family
cannot function without Mr. Turner, and that’s why we want to ask you how long it would take for him to recover.”
Jeremy smiled meaningfully and said, “Well, about Mr. Turner... He may need to continue getting treatment for smore time.
Are you all not satisfied with the way I manage the company? If you have any grievances or suggestions, please feel free to
voice them. I will listen to them with an open mind.” Although Jeremy’s words and his tone sounded humble and courteous, his
cold gaze made everyone in the room feel uneasy.
A few members of the Turner family noticed that something was not right and waved their hands, smiling awkwardly to show that
nothing was wrong.
“No, Mr. Button, you misunderstood us. There have been no problems with the way you manage the company. We’re only
concerned about Mr. Turner’s health,” one of them said.

“Yes, the stock price of the company has risen significantly since you took charge of the business, Mr. Button. Young people like
you have a better understanding of the markets than we do.”
“That’s right!” the others chimed in.
With a meaningful smile, Jeremy said in a low voice, “I understand now. I am relieved since you all don’t have any problems with
my management.”
He knew very well that he did not have the trust of the older members of the Turner family.
Not only did they not trust him, but they also made covert moves behind his back, including secretly investigating Luke’s illness
in an attempt to overthrow him.
However, none of that posed a threat to him.
He had plenty of ways to make them obey him.
Or, he could simply get rid of them.
After all, dealing with the Turners would be a piece of cake for him.
