539 Your Regret Is Not Worth a Single Cent
“There’s no time. I’m going to have another discussion with my uncles. We’ll hold a board meeting in two days to re-elect the chairman. It’ll be too late by the time the charges are confirmed. The company can’t afford to suffer such a huge loss.”
Lu Gan had no intention of giving Lu Hongyong a second chance. The latter had to step down!
Lu Hongyong asked shamelessly, “Do you really want me to be jailed?”
Lu Gan was puzzled.
“You should ask your illegitimate son that question. He’s the one who accused you.”
Lu Gan continued, “Are the two of you not talking to each other anymore? What happened? I thought he cared about you the most. He yearned for fatherly love, right?”
“Lu Gan!”
Lu Hongyong was furious. If there was a table nearby, he would flip it.
Lu Gan did not care about Lu Hongyong’s feelings.
“If I were you, I would resign immediately. Most people don’t know the truth yet. They’ll just think you’ve stepped down due to poor health. To be honest, I don’t care about your reputation. However, don’t you dare tarnish my brother’s legacy!”
Lu Hongyong tried to suppress his anger. He had been strong and proud his entire life. Unfortunately, towards the end of it, he caused a huge mess.
‘It’s all Qi Yuchuan’s fault!’
Even at this point, Lu Hongyong wanted to maintain his pride. He knew very well that only Lu Gan could help him now. Hence, he had to restrain himself and lowered his head to him.
Lu Gan remained indifferent.
“Good. It seems like you’re not hopelessly stupid. Make it public that you want to retire and suggest me as your replacement. I’ll handle the rest.”
Lu Hongyong looked at Lu Gan and asked hesitantly, “Are you doing this because you still care about me?”
Lu Gan laughed.
“Stop dreaming. Are my words from earlier not clear enough?”
“I love your brother. I also care about you, Lu Suo, your mother…”
“I understand.”
Lu Gan nodded nonchalantly.
Lu Hongyong felt uncomfortable because Lu Gan did not even bother to refute.
‘He’s my only son left but at this moment, we’re like strangers.’
Lu Hongyong really regretted his actions.
‘None of this would have happened if I didn’t help Qi Yuchuan.’
Lu Hongyong lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.
Lu Gan did not want to waste his time anymore. He asked coldly, “Are you clear about what you should do?”
Lu Hongyong said in a low voice, “I’ll inform the board of directors.”
“Great.”
After saying that, Lu Gan signaled for Song Ci to leave.
Lu Hongyong quickly called out to his merciless son.
“Will you come to see me again in the future?”
“I won’t and neither will Lu Suo.”
There was not a single hint of compassion in Lu Gan’s tone.
“Don’t worry. I won’t let Lu Suo know what you’ve done. Of course, it’s for his own sake. I want him to have a happy childhood.”
“Lu Gan, I genuinely regret my actions. I’ll make it up to you and Lu Suo. Please… We’re family.”
Lu Gan sneered.
“Your regret is not worth a single cent to me.”
