Austin glanced at Walter, then glared at Elmer.To confront Walter to this extent, Elmer's influence within the Campbells must go beyond Dorothy's support."Who agrees? Who opposes?" Walter asked calmly.The council hall was silent.Everyone wore indifferent expressions. But the silence was deafening, like a series of explosions."It seems everyone agrees?" Walter rubbed his nose and chuckled softly, but his expression grew colder.Before he could speak, Perry shouted, "This is already the lightest punishment for your son.""Good!" Walter laughed instead of getting angry.Then, his eyes turned sharp as he stared directly at Perry."Perry, your lack of virtue and unworthiness is well known among the Campbells. But, your embezzlement, siphoning off tens of billions from the Campbell's financial company, isn't that against family rules?" Walter's words were like a thunderclap.The room erupted in shock.Perry's face turned ashen, looking as red as a beet.His lips quivered, an

The council hall was silent, dominated by Walter's imposing presence.Austin watched with excitement, feeling his blood boil. Walter's words had completely turned the situation around.Each accusation was laid out meticulously.If those present were to punish Austin for breaking family rules, they too would not escape punishment!This made things straightforward, putting the choice in everyone's hands.Submit to them and prosper, those who oppose will perish! Simple and brutal.Yet it was like a mountain pressing down, leaving no room for resistance.Faces around the room darkened, veins bulging on foreheads, and some were even trembling slightly. Fear, shock, and despair gripped everyone.It felt as if they had been plunged into an icy abyss.If they truly followed the rules to the letter, no one present would escape unscathed.Each accusation, if punished according to the family rules, would overthrow the entire Campbell leadership.Because each accusation was a severe vio

Suddenly, Dorothy called out.Austin stopped, and Walter turned to look at Dorothy, smiling. "Aunt Dorothy, have you changed your mind?"Dorothy's face showed disgust, but then she said, "Walter, you are indeed a remarkable head of the Campbells, but as an elder, I must remind you that it's time to determine the strength of the heirs and decide who will be the next family head.""Oh? When do you think would be best, Aunt Dorothy?" Walter asked in return.Everyone was taken aback.But Dorothy was unafraid. "The previous family head established the successor when he was 50. The heads before him generally followed this age as well. I believe you should make the same decision!""50? I'm already 49 this year. Just one more year until 50. Isn't that a bit rushed, Aunt Dorothy?"Dorothy's eyes suddenly reddened, tears welling up as she pleaded, "Are you going to let me die without seeing the next head of the family, without seeing the hope for the Campbells' future? How can I rest in p

On the way back to the main estate, Ezra and the others noticed something off with Austin and Walter after they left the council hall.But no one asked questions, their status didn't allow it.Walter's face was stern, his eyes deep with thought.Austin, pushing the wheelchair, also looked serious and squinted his eyes.A one-year deadline was too short.Many of his projects had just started, and they'd been delayed for a long time due to the assassination attempts by the Shadow Web Syndicate.Compared to the other heirs of the Campbells, he had a long way to go.No matter how talented he was, it was impossible to make up for years of hard work by others in such a short time.Especially since the other heirs had been groomed by the elite education of the Campbells.Dorothy had forced Walter to set a "one-year deadline," clearly targeting him. But even knowing this, there's no way to resist.Walter had dominated the meeting, gaining all the advantages.If he didn't concede a b

"Mr. Walter, is there no other way?"Aldus was also anxious, "One year is too harsh for sir. It's clear they want to push him out after a year."However, as soon as the words were spoken, a cold and determined voice suddenly rang out."One year is enough!"Boom!The voice was like thunder, calm yet deafening to those present.Walter, Ezra, and the others looked at Austin in surprise.At that moment, Austin stood tall, his eyes sharp and unwavering. There was no trace of dissatisfaction or panic, only a steely determination, like a sword drawn from its sheath.One year… was it really enough?"I've managed to shape my forces into what it is now in less than a year. Give me another year, and that's all I need!"Austin's gaze was fierce, and his presence overwhelming. In that instant, everything seemed insignificant in his eyes.He was looking down on everyone, almost to the point of arrogance.Hearing this, Walter exclaimed with joy, "Good! You are indeed my son. Such courage

The private jet roared as it accelerated down the runway and took off.Looking down at the increasingly distant Campbell Residence, Austin muttered to himself, "A year from now, when I set foot here again, I will make you all bow down."The first time he stepped into the Campbell Residence, he truly felt the sting of humiliation. Each "illegitimate child" remark cut like a knife to his heart.Even to the ordinary servants, he was nothing more than an illegitimate child, someone they could treat with disdain.He was the target of everyone's scorn, with only Walter offering any support.He also saw firsthand just how complex the Campbell factions were.In the council hall, while Walter had dominated the room, it was his forceful tactics that made things seem straightforward.If looked deeper, the behaviors and actions of those present revealed underlying complexities.The people there were not united in their thoughts.Otherwise, Perry wouldn't have humiliated himself, and Elmer

Austin's eyes gradually reddened.It was only after visiting the Campbell residence that he truly understood how complex the Campbells were.It was no exaggeration to say that Walter had done his utmost to protect him and Dahlia back then.The scene in the council hall replayed in his mind. Those people had dared to shout about killing Austin right in front of Walter. It must have been even worse when Walter was just an heir.It was no wonder that after Walter became the head of the Campbells, he had never given Dahlia the recognition she deserved.It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he simply couldn't due to the immense pressure.Austin and Dahlia had spent over 20 years together, and he had worked tirelessly to give Dahlia the honor she deserved, as Ezra had said when they first met."Mom, in a year, I will return the honor you've missed for over 20 years."Austin bowed slowly as if making a vow. "I will bring you back to the Campbell ancestral hall and make everyone in the

Austin's mind exploded with a loud "boom."In an instant, he was dazed.A little Austin...His emotions surged, his eyes reddened, and his nose tingled with overwhelming emotion.This scene startled Cecily, who cupped Austin's face. "Honey, what's wrong?""Say it again!" Austin murmured."Honey, what's wrong?" Cecily repeated, puzzled."No, the previous sentence!" Austin shook his head vigorously.Cecily said, "Honey, we're going to have a little Austin.""Hahaha..."Austin burst into laughter, all his emotions pouring out like a flood after a brief delay. "I'm going to be a father! I'm going to be a father!"Seeing Austin's joy, Cecily also smiled sweetly.Overcome with excitement, Austin jumped out of bed, turned around, and lifted Cecily in a princess carry. He planted a firm kiss on her forehead and spun her around, laughing joyously.Cecily was immediately frightened, her face turning pale. "Oh no, put me down. I'm pregnant.""Right, right, you're pregnant, you're pr
