Mrs.Hunt became angry the moment Raymond said that.

She snapped, “Pete isn’t autistic, Raymond! Don’t you dare spout nonsense!”

Raymond curled his lip disdainfully.

“Yeah, yeah, Pete isn’t autistic.He just doesn’t like talking to people, that’s all.Sigh, he can’t just

keep avoiding talking to people when he takes over the company in the future, right?”

Roger said, “Don’t say that, Dad.Who knows, he may recover after he grows up.’’

Chester couldn’t tell that they were mocking Pete.

Neither did he recognize that the child was his leader, and thought she was his quiet and reticent

little nephew, so he echoed them and said, “Yeah, it’ll be fine once he grows up!”

Raymond, however, scoffed and said, “That’s what everyone said when he was a baby, but you

don’t see his condition getting any better the last few years, either…But I’m just worrying over

nothing, of course, because Justin will definitely have everything all nicely planned out for the

company in the future, right?”

He then looked at Fatty and reprimanded him.

“And you, too, Fatty.Don’t just study all the time.What’s the use of being so academic? All that

studying has made you stupid instead.What matters the most as a leader is eloquence! How can

you make people trust and believe in you if you’re not eloquent?”

He was both overtly and secretly demeaning Pete.

All the other Hunts looked at Pete when they heard what he said.

Indeed, what was the use of a genius if he was autistic? Seeing that his words were showing effect,

Raymond immediately became rather smug.

Roger, however, narrowed his eyes.

During past family dinners, Pete had either skipped it altogether and if he did attend, Justin would

always lose his temper whenever someone mentioned the words ‘mild autism’.

Why was he keeping quiet this time, though? Could it be that…

He was still wondering about it when the little fellow in Justin’s arms called out sweetly, “Hi,Great-

Grandma!”

Roger: “???”

Raymond was also dumbfounded.

He stared at the child in Justin’s arms in disbelief and said, “Were you the one talking just now,

Pete?”

Cherry rolled her eyes and looked at Justin.

Then, in her young but clear voice, she asked, “Is that grandpa deaf or blind, Daddy? Why are his

ears and eyes so bad? Since our family is so rich, you have to get the doctor to take a look at him!”

The corners of Justin’s lips curled into a smile.

His usually standoffish countenance looked rather relaxed.

He glanced at Raymond and replied leisurely, “He’s very old, so he can neither see nor hear

anything clearly.”

Raymond:”!!!”

Cherry replied adorably, “Oh, I see!”

As for Mrs.Hunt, she was so excited upon hearing Cherry’ s voice that her eyes reddened.

She wanted to reach out and take her into her arms, but when she thought of how the little fellow

loathed physical contact with others the most, she retracted her arms and asked with a smile, “Is

Pete talking now? Has he recovered?”

Justin cast his eyes down dispassionately and kept quiet.

Instead, he put his daughter down.

As soon as Cherry’s feet touched the floor, she ran toward Mrs.Hunt.

The little figure dived into the elderly lady’s arms and she called out adorably and tenderly, “Great-

Grandma!”

Not only was the little fellow sweet-smelling and tender, but ‘he’ was finally willing to let her hug

‘him’ now.

Mrs.Hunt became even more excited, so much so that her hands even started to shake.

She let out an excited sound of acknowledgment and then, without a second thought, took off a ring

she was wearing and stuffed it into Cherry’s hands.

She said, “Here, this is for you, Pete!”

Everyone present was shocked at the sight.

Mrs.Hunt’s ring was made of top-quality jadeite that formed only in hundreds of thousands of years,

and was worth over ten million dollars! The elderly Mr.Hunt had given it to her when they got

married back then! At that time, they had said that it was to be passed on to future generations as a

family heirloom! The elderly lady had also been urging Justin to get married all this time, so that she

could gift the ring to her daughter-in-law.

It was a symbol of one’s status as the female master of the Hunts! Why had she instead given the

ring to Pete in a moment of excitement today? Raymond panicked.

He stepped forward and said with a smile, “Look at how muddleheaded you are, Mom.This is a

woman’s ring; why would you give it to Pete?”

The old lady glanced at him and replied with a smile, “Pete can keep it and give it to his wife in the

future, then!”

In other words, she was saying that Pete’s wife would be the female master of the Hunts in the

future.

In that case, Pete’s position as the head of the family was not to be doubted! The elderly lady was

backing Pete up! Raymond frowned and looked at Fatty with dissatisfaction .

Then, he said, “You mustn’t be biased, Mom.Since you’ve given that to Pete, what are you going to

give Fatty?”

The fat little boy also looked at her expectantly.

Mrs.Hunt glanced at him and said with a smile, “Fatty can ask his Uncle Justin if there’s anything he

wants! Justin is rich! And he’s also the head of the family!”

Raymond’s expression darkened even further.

Roger also lowered his gaze.

Seeing that the two of them were no longer creating any more trouble, Mrs.Hunt finally looked at

Cherry and said, “Put the ring away properly, Pete.”

Cherry hastily said, “This is too precious, Great-Grandma.I can’t accept it!”
