After the meal, Jiang Yining was pulled by Abby to play in her room.
Lu Zhi followed Mr. Manchester to the study room.
Mr. Manchester looked at the imposing Lu Zhi in front of him and sighed, “All Zhi, are you still blaming me for cutting ties with your mother and not caring about you and your brother?”
“This is a dispute between the older generations. 1 have no right to interfere, and it’s not a matter of blame or not. It’s just that I’m closer to whoever raised me.”
Lu Zhi’s expression was indifferent.
Mr. Manchester knew that even though he didn’t say it, he still had resentment in his heart. Helplessly, he said, “It’s not that 1 don’t care about you two brothers. It’s just that your mother chose your father, and they weren’t a good match. I wanted to use that to force her to come back. I never expected it to escalate into the situation it is now…”
“I understand your decision.”
Lu Zhi didn’t blame his grandfather.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTherefore, after coming to Sweden, he still hung out with his grandfather’s family as usual.
It was just that understanding was one thing, but he couldn’t bring himself to feel close.
Mr. Manchester compromised further and said, “All Zhi, now that I’m getting old. I’ve become more open-minded about many things. Grandchildren had their blessings, and the elders should not interfere too much. You are not willing to give up Yining and marry Vinnie. 1 respect your decision. But the House of Manchester needs you. I beseech you to stay in Sweden and continue to rule the empire for me. Don’t let the efforts of generations in the House of Manchester go to waste.”
“Grandfather, I’ve already made it very clear before. The Lu family also needs me. I can’t abandon the Lu family and come to your side.”
Lu Zhi rejected firmly.
“Without you, the Lu family can choose another heir to inherit the family business. But you’re the only one left in our family. Ah Zhi, you have many competitors in the Lu family, but you are the only heir in the House of Manchester.” Mr. Manchester analyzed the pros and cons and said, “As long as you agree, your aunt and I will spare no effort to support you.”
However, Lu Zhi remained unmoved. “1 see that Aunt Luna is taking good care of the family. You can leave it to her to continue managing.”
Mr. Manchester looked saddened. “Your aunt cannot inherit the title. Without the title of nobility, and losing connection with the royal family, our family’s enterprises are in jeopardy. Luna’s capabilities are indeed excellent, but in this aspect, she falls short.”
They were in control of the economic lifeline of the country.
It was closely related to the entire country.
If they lost their titles, the royal family could find an excuse to reclaim their operational rights…
By then, the downfall of the House of Manchester was just a matter of time.
If it weren’t for the male inheritance tradition, he wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble repeatedly urging Lu Zhi to return to the family.
Lu Zhi’s voice was low, “I’m sorry. I really can’t help you.”
“All Zhi…”
Mr. Manchester wanted to persuade him further, but just as he called out to him, he started coughing.
Lu Zhi stood up and poured him a glass of water.
He walked up to him and wanted to pass it to him.
However, he realized that his handkerchief was stained with blood. “Are you sick?”
“Yes.” Mr. Manchester nodded and said, “Cancer. 1 don’t have many years left. I was so anxious to invite you back because I hoped that before 1 passed away, I could find an heir and arrange everything properly.”
Lu Zhi fell silent for a moment and said, “I’ll try to find Beicheng and ask him if he’s willing to inherit your position.”
“Beicheng… Hasn’t he been missing for a long time?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt would not be a bad thing if he could find Beicheng.
Mr. Manchester favored Lu Zhi the most because he was far more talented than Lu Beicheng.
However, if Lu Zhi was really unwilling, Lu Beicheng would be a suitable alternative.
In any case, with Luna’s assistance, there would not be any trouble.
However… Beicheng had gone missing a long time ago and his whereabouts remained unknown.
Despite dispatching many people, they had failed to locate Beicheng.
Mr. Manchester felt that there was a high likelihood that something unfortunate had happened to him.
Therefore, he placed all his hopes on Lu Zhi.
“Yes, Beicheng is playful and doesn’t know where he wandered off to. But he’s definitely safe. 1’11 find him as soon as possible. Take care of yourself, don’t worry too much,” Lu Zhi said firmly.
Mr. Manchester swallowed his words and nodded.
He took the cup of tea Lu Zhi handed to him and moistened his mouth.
Lu Zhi walked out of the study after he finished the discussion with Mr. Manchester.
As he reached the stairs, he found Luna waiting for him, and his expression turned cold.
Qi Feng had already reported the results of the investigation, and all the evidence pointed to her..
