The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 25

Sure enough, after Gailen had finished talking, several others followed suit, wanting to seek cooperation.

The children of the Lyndon clan were full of smiles, this blessing came so fast!

Suddenly, Wentworth stood up.

“Wentworth, what is it?” Grandmother Lyndon asked curiously.

Grandmother Lyndon used to favor Wentworth. However, as Lily’s father, ever since she got married to Darryl, she stopped favoring him as much.

Wentworth waved his hand and said to her, “Mom, as you know I’ve been overseas for the past while, and this time I’m back to celebrate your birthday. That said, I’m also back to bring you good news. It’s a lucrative money-making project.”

“Oh?” Granny replied with her eyebrows raised. “Do tell.”

Indeed, members of the Lyndon clan had heard that Wentworth made a lot of money overseas. When he came back, he casually gave Samantha and Lily two large checks. He truly made people envious.

Wentworth let out a laugh. “Mom, I made a friend when I was overseas. His name is Tony, he’s a financier. We just need to give him the money, and it will be doubled after a month!”

What?

Everyone snorted at his words. Could it be any faker, doubled after a month?

Wentworth took out his cellphone to show his transaction record and laughed. “Come, see the records for yourself.”

The crowd surrounded Wentworth in an instant. Sure enough, the records showed that he had invested 10 million bucks monthly for the past six months, and he received 20 million bucks in return every month.

“Mom, I came back for three reasons,” explained Wentworth. “Firstly, it was to celebrate your birthday. Secondly, I know that you dislike Darryl, and with my return, I will make sure Lily and Darryl are divorced. Thirdly, was to share this good news with you. I swear upon my life that Master Tony is guaranteed reliable!”

“Swear upon your life?”

“Sounds interesting, seems like it is indeed reliable.”

The Lyndons discussed among one another. Wentworth indeed was reliable, back then he was always the top student of his school. He was an honest man, and would never trick another person. Moreover, it was clearly shown on his cellphone that he made huge profits every month.

Grandmother Lyndon furrowed her brows and finally spoke. “Wentworth, if what you said is true, we can try it out. However in recent years, our clan’s businesses aren’t doing so well, we only have a total of 300 to 400 million in our funds. How about we try it out with 50 million first?”

“Mom, if we’re gonna bet, we might as well bet big,” Wentworth took a deep breath and stepped forward. “Rumor has it that Master Tony is going to retire soon. How about we invest all our funds into it. We’ll invest all 400 million! Within a month, we’ll get a return of 800 million and never have to do it again, what do you think?!”

Upon hearing those words, the members of the clan exchanged looks with each other.

Some of them believed that they could give it a shot, while some others rejected the suggestion.

“Granny, we can’t do this,” said Elsa as she stood up, after giving it some considerable thought.

“There’s no such thing as a free lunch!” Elsa angrily stomped her feet. “This is a scam, we should not do it!”

Smack!

Wentworth slammed the table and stared at Elsa intensely. “Elsa, what’s the meaning of this? Are you implying that I came back just so I could scam our clan’s money? How could you think so badly of me?”

“It’s not that I think you’re bad. I just want to know, if there are free lunches, who would need to work anymore?”

“You! You…” As Wentworth was about to speak, Grandmother Lyndon interrupted his words.

“Enough, we’re all family, why are we arguing?” The old lady said unhappily as she slowly turned her gaze toward William. “William, what do you think?”

Even though the night-shining pearl William gave her was a fake, and he even got beaten up by Harry, he was still her favorite.

Naturally in such important matters, Grandmother Lyndon would still consult William’s opinion.

Nobody noticed that William chuckled discreetly.

Initial investment doubled within a month? Is this some kind of children’s trick? This was a scam! Granny has aged, so it was only natural that she could not tell that it was a scam!

Even though William was a little stubborn, he still had a sharp mind. Logically, he would advise Granny against such garbage talk, but at that moment, his heart was filled with hatred against Darryl!

No matter what Wentworth said, he was still Darryl’s father-in-law. Wentworth did not leave a good impression on William.

“Granny, I think we can try,” said William.

William had already thought it through. The money that would be invested would have no return. At that moment, the clan funding would break, and Wentworth’s reputation would be ruined! Eventually, his entire family would be banished from the clan, only then would William be satisfied!

“William, are you mad?” Elsa said, raging mad. “You are advising Granny to invest?”

Before William could reply, Grandmother Lyndon had already waved her hand and stood up. “Enough, no more words from any of you. I’ve decided to go according to William’s words. We will invest all of our funds.”
