His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)
Spoiled By Mr. Russell By Luminous Night Chapter 624Chapter 624 Ignoring him, Justin turned to look at Jonathan standing by them, “The Lodge family has a huge family business, and the family affairs are complicated. That makes it no easier than running a company. However, now that the incident happened so suddenly, | suggest temporarily allowing Granduncle Jonathan to take control. This is to provide reassurance to the others and also for the future of the Lodge family.” “Justin!” Henry shouted angrily, not expecting him to say that.

He was stunned for a while and then laughed, ” Well...” He stopped chuckling for a second, cleared his throat, and said, “Well, I'm getting old and being in charge of the family is tough work. I'm afraid my body can’t bear it.” “That's right! Uncle Jonathan is getting old and is in poor health. Are you bringing this purpose to make things difficult for us? It seems you intend to oppose me, Justin,” Henry said mockingly.
up on “It's tough work to be the leader of the whole family. The responsibility is particularly heavy, so a reliable person needs to take this seat.” Having said that, Justin placed the family’s seal in Jonathan's hand, “Granduncle Jonathan, we're all in your hands now.” Henry never expected that Justin would hand the seal to Jonathan in front of so many people. Henry was so angry that he wished he could grab it directly from Jonathan.
However, in front of many elders, Henry did not dare declare war.
Instead, he gritted his teeth and said with a smile, “Uncle Jonathan, you're retired now. You shouldn't worry about these things anymore. The family has many affairs to settle. Why don't | temporarily...” Before Henry's hand touched the seal, Jonathan pulled his hand away. He raised his eyes to look at Justin with a much calmer look, “I'm indeed old, but fortunately, I'm not confused. Since the Lodge family is at this critical juncture, I'll do my best to support it. | hope | can still do something for the family while I'm still alive.” “Justin, Henry, you can rest assured that this seal is currently in good hands while I'm in charge. After the investigation into the death is clear, I'll return this seal to whoever it belongs to!” Jonathan's words were emphasized and said meaningfully.

Even if Henry was reluctant at that moment, he could. only stare coldly but not fight back. Lily noticed as well.
Maybe the whole candle story was just an excuse to fight for power and profit! It did not matter whether the candle was the cause of death or if Lily was the murderer who hurt her grandfather.
What mattered most was that Justin was intrinsically linked to the entire predicament, and could not take over the family’s affairs.
Did that mean that Henry cback with the ultimate. goal of seizing power? “Since Granduncle Jonathan is in charge now, could you givea direction on how to investigate the matter of my grandfather?” Lily questioned Jonathan.
The head of the family was not only in power but also had to make decisions. She was curious as to their plan to manipulate the situation.
