Sweet Twins novel Chapter 450

When the call ended, Charles turned off his computer and lit up another cigarette.

His mind was busy thinking about what had been happening recently. At some point, he felt like he had forgotten something but no matter how hard he tried to remember it, he couldn't.

All of a sudden, he received a call from Nancy.

Charles answered the phone in a hurry. "Nancy, why are you not busy?"

"I've just had an operation. I'm free now. Charles..."

"What's wrong?" Her voice sounded a little heavy, and Charles felt like his heart was inexplicably hanging.

"Don't you think Derrick is a little strange?" After thinking for a while, Nancy added, "I always feel like Joseph is hiding something from us."

"Do you mean... Is Derrick awake?"

If that was the case, then that explained how Joseph could speak confidently in front of the shareholders. Derrick must have taught him everything he had to say, word by word.

After all, Joseph's ability was still a shock for Charles.

As she was really bothered by this, Nancy suggested, "I don't know either. I just feel like something is wrong. You don't have much work to do at home anyway. How about you go to the hospital and have a look at Derrick? Maybe you will understand."

"Okay," Charles agreed.

Since he had nothing to do at home, Charles dressed up and drove to the hospital.

As soon as he walked into Frederic's ward, he heard his loud laughter.

It made Charles pause for a while, before he finally opened the door.

Today, Frederic looked more energetic, at least much better than yesterday. As for the reason, Charles was quick to figure it out.

It was obvious that Frederic was happy to see that Joseph could manage the company.

When Frederic saw Charles come in, he asked, "Charles, what do you think? Isn't Joseph commendable?"

"Is Grandpa so confident in him in less than one day?" Disappointed, Charles gave his grandpa a disdainful glance.

"I know you are waiting for Joseph to make a fool of himself. But let me tell you, even though his reputation in the business world is not as good as yours, he has grown up in the Fu family and has been influenced by the way we do business. Some things are natural. As long as Joseph stops playing and wasting his energy on women, I think he will make a great achievement in the business world one day!"

Instead of refuting, Charles chuckled. "Joseph is so promising now. I should congratulate Grandpa, shouldn't I?"

Since Joseph went to the TS Group, Frederic had been checking on his phone, which made Angelina so pissed off.

Seeing that Joseph had intimidated the shareholders, Frederic was so elated.

"You see, Joseph used to loaf around and have nothing to do. I didn't expect him to speak so well in front of the shareholders. Well, after all, he is the descendant of the Fu family. That's right. You're the only two grandchildren I have. Anyway, you two should be evenly matched. Back then, I was always worried that Joseph would be idle all his life. Now it seems that I have worried too much! Fortunately, Joseph didn't let me down!" Happiness was evident in his eyes as he spoke so proudly of his grandson.

As she was a little jealous, Angelina rolled her eyes. She was looking forward to see Joseph retreat, so she didn't expect him to do better than she thought.

Did Joseph really hide his real potential just like what Frederic said?

If that was the case, Joseph had been hiding it too well. They had been together for so long, but Angelina didn't realize it.

"Alas, I just feel sorry for Charles. He has been busy working hard for so many years, but in the end, all he did is in vain!" Her voice was dripping with sarcasm.

"Angelina, you shouldn't say that. Although Hardy and Derrick don't live together now, you have to support each other in the future. Joseph can manage the TS Group now, and that's also with the help of Charles. And besides, as long as the TS Group is rich, it can invest in Charles and let him start a new business, right?" This time, Frederic was really determined to give TS Group to Joseph.

Why?

It was because he knew that Joseph could not establish his career by himself, while Charles could.

Therefore, it was a good idea to leave the TS Group to Joseph and let Charles start a new business.

But Angelina was not satisfied with what he had said, so she muttered angrily, "Father, you are so unfair. Have you forgotten that Charles and Joseph are both your grandsons?"

With a sneer, Frederic replied, "How could I forget? They are both my grandsons, so I let Joseph take over the company."

"Then let me ask you, if Charles is willing to end his relationship with Nancy, will you let him go back to the TS Group?" Angelina asked.

"Now that you've mentioned it. I asked Nancy to convince Charles to go back to the TS Group, but she didn't. Therefore, you can't blame me if I let Joseph take over. It's Nancy's fault. And you can only blame Charles for giving up the TS Group." His tone was sharp as he tried to justify himself.

"You... Well, you are always right. I just feel sorry for Charles. In fact, I'm also angry with Nancy. But this matter... Why did it end up like this?" Angelina was not fine at all!

Her heart was full of hatred. She really wanted to drag Derrick out of the bed and ask him why he framed Charles.

But Frederic knew the truth. Why did he still stand up for Derrick?

It was so strange. Could people change their personality when they got older?

His father-in-law, who used to like Charles, now had his attention to Joseph.

"I also want to see Joseph's ability. Even if Joseph is capable now, it can't offset Derrick's crime. He..."

"Well, Angelina, don't be against Derrick. His life is still uncertain. What's the point of blaming him? Do you see anyone who is against the dead? Just think that Derrick is dead and let it go." Finally, Frederic put his phone away.

"Good, very good. As long as Joseph can grow up, Derrick's efforts will not be in vain!" All of a sudden, Frederic burst into laughter.

Angelina was about to argue when she saw Charles walk forward.

So she quickly moved aside.

Looking at his grandfather, Charles remained indifferent.

Frederic didn't expect that Charles would be so calm.

"You don't have to congratulate me. You have contributed a lot to Joseph's successful management of the TS Group. I'm sure you wouldn't have any problem building your own business. Besides, you also have shares. You will have nothing to worry about in your life," said Frederic.

"Wasn't it Grandpa who wrote the draft for Joseph when he attended the shareholders' meeting today?" Finally, Charles was able to ask this question.

"I'm sick now and I can't write that. Besides, Joseph is a talented man. He doesn't need me to write him a draft. The Fu family will be revived!" Frederic said proudly.

With a stoic face, Charles retorted, "Grandpa is wrong. The Fu family has never been defeated."
