Chapter 620
When Michael arrived at the study's door, he suddenly recalled that Mr. Anderson Sr. was particular about rules. So,
he quickly stopped, adjusted his anxious attitude, and knocked on the door to enter.
"Oh, this is a surprise, what brings you here?" Mr. Anderson Sr. was wearing a pair of reading glasses and holding a
book in his hand. When he saw Michael coming in, he was pleasantly surprised and spoke in a tone of disgust.
It was a pleasure to have kids and grandchildren for others. But, for Mr. Anderson Sr., his children, and
grandchildren would not come to visit him if it was not something urgent.
Michael smiled forcefully, thinking about where to start. However, Mr. Anderson Sr. ignored him and went to
another place to get another book.
"Dad, I came back today because I need a favor from you." Michael pondered for a while and said to Mr. Anderson

"It’s about Todd. That boy wanted to learn how to run a business, but he doesn't know anything about it. He was
scammed by his partners abroad. The money invested in the business is all loaned, and his partners have run away.
After that, the loan shark had Todd detained." said Michael. 1
Michael suddenly told a lie, and he had no confidence that it would work. He tugged at the corner of his clothes and
continued, "The people who lend money aren't good people, and I don't have the money to help him. Todd is also
your grandson. Do you think you could—"
"No!" The decisive refusal sounded, but it was not from Mr. Anderson Sr.
The study room's door was pushed open from the outside.
Sean's figure appeared in the study.
Mr. Anderson Sr. looked up from his book and saw Sean coming in.
"What's going on here? Today, two of you arrived at my study," said Mr. Anderson Sr.
That question was for Sean. Mr. Anderson Sr. put down his book and walked out from his simple and old desk. He
held onto his crutches and walked to the big couch. He sat down and looked at his son and grandson.
When Michael saw that Sean appeared, he cried out in his heart.
Sure enough, without giving Michael a chance to argue, Sean directly told Mr. Anderson Sr.
"Grandpa, Todd has been addicted to gambling recently. He often goes to and from a casino abroad. He loaned
hundreds of millions of dollars from the casino. He couldn't return the money and was detained by the casino."
Mr. Anderson Sr.'s face began to sink, and Michael's face turned paler.
Sean looked at Mr. Anderson Sr. and said, "Therefore, Michael came back today and must be asking for your help to
pay their gambling debts."
As these words were said, Michael's heart fell into the abyss instantly.

"Dad..." Michael did not dare to admit it. He wanted to refute it, but he could not tell any more lies when he met Mr.
Anderson Sr.'s eyes that were like a torch. So, he could only plead, "Dad, Todd is still young. That child is ignorant
and was tricked into gambling. He’s also your grandson. Please save him. Let Todd come home first and teach him
a lesson later."
"Unbelievable!" Mr. Anderson Sr. looked at Michael with anger on his face. "The little one can gamble, and the older
one can lie. My family had given birth to bad seeds such as you two!"
Mr. Anderson Sr. grabbed the cane in his hand but released it after a while. The cane tapped on the ground, and
there was no sound because the floor was covered with a thick carpet.
After a while, Mr. Anderson Sr. could no longer bear it.
"Get out. Get out of here. I don't have a shameful son like you.
Todd is your son. As a father, you are also a problem. I won't interfere in this matter. You can solve it yourself!" Mr.
Anderson Sr. shouted.
Mr. Anderson Sr. took a deep breath. He stood up and walked out of the study room, clearly showing that he would
not interfere.
