Chapter 941

When Peter and Tania went downstairs to the dining room, they heard Zara telling a story to Brandon. Brandon was listening wide-eyed with excitement, his eyes shining as though he were utterly captivated.Peter smirked, slipping one hand into his pocket as he walked over. "Brandon, are you full?""Daddy!" Brandon quickly turned, jumped off his chair, and hugged Peter's leg. "Grandma is amazing! She knows so many stories, even more than Mommy!"Peter narrowed his eyes, glancing at Tania. "Really? And what stories does Mommy tell you?"Brandon tilted his head, thinking. "The Three Bears, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and the Prince and the Frog."He hesitated a little. "Mommy knows lots of stories too, but she only tells me one each night, so she finishes them quickly."Peter grinned. "Is that so? Do you really like listening to stories?"Brandon nodded enthusiastically. "I love it.""Then, how about letting Grandma tell you stories from now on? Sometimes, Mommy gets very tire

"But Dad, you—""That's enough. Say no more. Since he dares to act this way, he needs a lesson to remind him that the Lennons and Lennon Group can manage perfectly well without him," Xylos declared, turning to Jack."Jack, tomorrow, I want you to step in and take over Peter's responsibilities at the company. And Jamie… You're to assist Jack. Understood?""I…" Jamie began, but Ari shot him a look. "Thank you, Grandpa. Jamie has been working hard recently and will fully support Uncle Jack so that he can adjust quickly to Lennon Group's operations."Though Jamie was not thrilled about it, he knew what to say in situations like these and what to hold back. He disliked Jack, but he disliked Peter even more.The idea of Peter being dismissed gave Jamie some satisfaction. He had spent considerable time at Lennon Group, yet he was always overshadowed by Peter—a fact that left him deeply unsettled.Meanwhile, Ari's gaze remained fixed on Jack. She was unable to look away. Frustrated,

"It's good that you understand," Xylos said, patting Jack's hand. "I'm tired. It's been a while since you've been back, so go get some rest. I had the butler prepare your room.""Alright. You take care and rest well."After Jack left, Lance entered to give Xylos his medicine but hesitated.Xylos glanced at him. "You want to ask why I sidelined Peter, don't you?"Lance froze, saying, "I wouldn't dare."Xylos let out a cold laugh. "Peter is too headstrong. If I don't keep him in check, he could end up taking all control over Lennon Group. He… Well, he certainly is a capable leader.""Then why not allow Mr. Peter to inherit the Lennons' legacy? The head of the Lennons has always been someone exceptional, and Mr. Peter… He'd surely expand Lennon Group and elevate the Lennons' name."Xylos sighed deeply. "Yes, but his methods are ruthless. With him in charge, Jack and Jamie wouldn't stand a chance."Shaking his head, he added, "There's no point explaining further. I just hope Jack c

"You've anticipated this? What do you mean?" Tania did not understand. "Why say that?""In short, even if it weren't because of you, the Lennons would've done this sooner or later. Lennon Group has long been unable to tolerate me, and I… never really wanted anything from Lennon Group." Peter said this as he guided Tania to sit down. "Where's Brandon?""Downstairs. Zara adores him," Tania replied, glancing at Peter and noticing the soft smile on his face whenever he mentioned Brandon. "Peter, you…""What?"Tania snapped out of it and shook her head. "It's nothing. It's late. I should take Brandon home."Peter pursed his lips, clearly displeased. Yet after looking at her, he finally nodded. "I'll drive you both back, then.""There's no need.""You don't have a car, and Five Elements Residence is quite far from Phoenix Tree Residence." Without giving Tania a chance to refuse, Peter stood up, grabbed his coat, and said, "Let's go. I'll drive you.""Alright. Thanks for the help."

Tania initially intended to follow Peter upstairs, but Noelle quickly held her hand. "Tania, come sit with me!""But Brandon…""Peter can take care of Brandon. Come sit down. I wanted to ask you about your trip to the hospital today."Reluctantly, Tania watched Peter carry Brandon upstairs. Charles shot a long look at Noelle, shook his head, and then followed Peter up.Peter undressed Brandon and took him to the bathroom to clean him up. When he emerged, he noticed Charles waiting there with an amused look on his face.Peter frowned slightly. "Need something?"With his arms crossed, Charles leaned against the wall, observing Peter in full dad mode. "I never thought I'd see you like this."Peter cast an indifferent glance at him. "You're just jealous."Charles raised an eyebrow, neither agreeing nor denying. "What happened today? Let's hear it."Peter was quiet for a moment before saying, "Jack's back. What else could it be?" He placed Brandon on the bed, tucked him in, and mot

The sudden change in senior management, particularly Peter's ousting, left the company in disarray. After all, Peter was essentially the backbone of Lennon Group.Since the storm nearly seven or eight years ago, Lennon Group had not faced such turmoil.Peter's entry had brought in a wealth of fresh talent, all of whom were closely tied to him. Now, with Peter abruptly sidelined, those who remained felt uneasy. Many even resigned outright while others stayed but lost interest in their work.Lennon Group plunged into turmoil. Even with Jack's competence, he could not control the employees loyal to Peter. To make matters worse, several companies paused their collaborations with Lennon Group, seeking a formal explanation amidst the chaos.This created a deepening sense of unrest within the company. Though Jack had anticipated some difficulties, he found himself unprepared for the scale of this challenge.Jamie, who previously worked on smaller projects, had never witnessed such a majo

"Zara," Jennifer greeted with a smile, glancing inside. "Where's my brother?""You have bad timing, Ms. Jennifer. Mr. Peter just left," Zara replied."Left? Where did he go?" Jennifer's face showed disappointment. "I thought he'd be home since he's no longer working at Lennon Group.""Please come in and sit," Zara offered."No, since he's not here, I'll just go.""Wait, Ms. Jennifer!" Zara called out. "Mr. Peter went to see Ms. Tania and Brandon.""Tania?" Jennifer hesitated, recalling the scene at the Lennon residence when Tania stood up to Xylos. She sighed softly. "Do you know where they are?""They're at the hospital. Ms. Tania's mother is sick, and Mr. Peter had me prepare some soup to bring over. If you need to see him urgently, he'll surely be there."…Peter went straight to the hospital, where Tania and Brandon were keeping Nancy company with Henry nearby.Standing outside, Peter watched them with a look of relief crossing his face.Brandon, with his sharp eyes, not

Henry scoffed coldly, "Anyone can talk a good game. I want to see what you do.""Yes, I'll prove to you that I'm the best choice for Tania," Peter replied calmly, handing a bowl of soup to Henry. "Both of you should try this."Henry finally nodded in satisfaction.…Meanwhile, Lennon Group's share price plummeted sharply due to Peter's departure, as if someone had anticipated it.Within days, shares were scooped up in large quantities by a company from Cascade City, which even managed to acquire shares from some of the more casual shareholders.Back at the Lennon residence, a storm was brewing. Xylos, poring over the recent reports from Lennon Group, was trembling with anger. "Investigate! Find out what this company is and how it's operating in Brookville without me knowing.""Great-Grandpa, it's not a company from Brookville," Jamie clarified."Where are they based?""Cascade City!"Xylos was shocked. "Cascade City? Are you saying this company is based there?" He could not b

At the hospital, Peter glanced at Sean, who was busy working in his office. "When are you planning to stop?""You think I don't want to?" Sean shot him a look. "You may be free as a bird now, but I've still got work to do, and I'm dedicated to it."Peter scoffed, tapping his long fingers on the desk. "Dedicated? If you're a model employee, all other employees must've vanished.""Hey!" Sean could not take the insult. "Don't question my work ethic."He tossed his pen down and looked at Peter with a serious expression. "If you've got something to say, spit it out. I'm busy. I have no time to babysit you.""Fine. Has Brandon's test report come out?""Damn!" Sean's eyes widened as he suddenly remembered. "I almost forgot about that! Here it is."Sean quickly handed over the report, and Peter's brows knitted together. He fixed Sean with a hard look that made Sean shiver. "Hey, it's not my fault. I've been tied up with a bunch of tough surgeries lately. Plus, I've been running tests

"Keep buying up Lennon Group's shares. Let's see when they hit rock bottom!""Understood!"Steven squinted. "Anything else?""Mr. Lennon said I should stick with you for now. He mentioned you'll be handling my work arrangements moving forward, Mr. Fischer."Steven nodded, "Alright. For now, stay here in Cascade City. With you here, I feel confident things are covered.""What?" Lareal shot up, startled. "Mr. Fischer, you…""I have business in Brookville. For anything here in Cascade City, work directly with Eloise. Only when both of you can't solve it should you reach out to me."Steven grabbed his coat, made a quick call to Eloise, and instructed, "Stay in Cascade City to support Lareal. And without my permission, don't go looking for the Naylors.""I understand."Lareal gaped as he watched Steven leave. He wore a defeated expression as Steven disappeared from view.…Steven arrived in Brookville at 3:00 pm along with Marvin Powell. They headed directly to Sean's private hos
