Chapter 1724
All the board members' sons and daughters who had returned from their studies were dying for Andrew to notice
them and call them to work by his side. But now, such a coveted position had fallen into Ryder's hands.
This was unexpected for many people, including Mason himself. He was somewhat puzzled but ultimately
expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. Lloyd, for thinking so highly of my son! I'm grateful for your
mentorship!"
Andrew waved his hand dismissively, "It's nothing. Well, that concludes today's meeting!"
The meeting ended, and everyone went their separate ways.
Mason walked silently with Ryder, hurrying into the underground parking garage. Only when they were alone did
he turn around and slap Ryder across the face.
"You bastard, who told you to leave the military? Not only are you skipping out on your job, but you're even
running around without my permission!"
Looking at his father's furious expression, Ryder sneered inwardly but appeared terrified on the surface. "lI was
only worried about you, Dad, so | took leave without permission. Our family is going through turbulent times
right now, and | wanted to help you manage family affairs!"
Mason sneered, "Helping with family affairs is just an excuse. You're really after my position as family head,
aren't you?"
Ryder put on a wounded look, his eyes glassy with fake tears. "I didn't think my good intentions would make you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtso suspicious of me, like I'm skind of threat. How could | have the qualifications or ability to challenge your
position as family head? If you just think about it, you'd realize this makes no sense!"
He added, "Besides, my brothers are still too young to help the family at all. That's why | took it upon myself to
cand assist you, Dad!"
Mason frowned deeply, staring at Ryder.
Was he overthinking things?
He shook his head, thinking he needed more rest lately. His nerves had been on edge for so long that he was
becoming paranoid. He could suspect anyone, but not his own son.
"Fine, since you're already here, do your job well! But there's one thing | don't understand... How did Andrew
approach you?" Mason pressed again.
Ryder lowered his head, hiding the cold gleam that flashed in his eyes. Then, he gave the explanation he had
prepared in advance.
"When Mr. Lloyd reached out to me, he seemed really guilty. He said he felt he owed the Ulrich family, and
offeringa position was his way of making up for what happened to Grandpa."
Mason finally relaxed and dropped
his guard. He warned his son, "Don't
believe a word that monster says.t
He's the one who killed your grandfather. Back in that meeting, | had no choice but to play along because his
influence is too strong right now."
He added, "But don't worry, Ryder. That arrogance of his won't last long."
Ryder clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "I knew it. | knew he was the one who killed Grandpa. Don't worry,
Dad. As long as we work together, we'll bring him down."
Mason nodded, clearly pleased. "Good. Chwith me. And since you're working under Andrew now, you
can keepposted on his every move."
Ryder climbed into the car and casually pulled out his phone, sending a quick message. [All set.]
The message went straight to Rachel since Ryder was under her supervision, per Andrew's instructions.
"Mr. Lloyd, Mason took the bait!" Rachel reported immediately after receiving the message.
Andrew was still lounging in the now-empty conference room, legs kicked up on the table. He let out a
nonchalant grunt, clearly unfazed. Just then, a message from Yara popped up on his phone.
[Yara: Uncle Andy, dinner's ontonight!]
[Andrew: Not going. And stop callingUncle.]
[Yara: Then I'll call you Daddy!]
[Andrew: Will you stop with all the flirting?]
Yara responded with an angry emoji,
