1280 1280: Ill-Mannered Brothers
On the other hand, Eddie was speechless as well after Du Yanzheng hung up on him.
These two men were indeed brothers. They had the same temperament.
Seeing the black screen in front of him, Eddie looked incredibly pissed.
“Sir, how can both your nephews be so rude? You are the head of the Hess family, and you spoke to him so nicely, but none of them responded nicely!”
The man who spoke was Eddie’s assistant known as Qi Ye.
“One of them belongs to the Du family, and the other belongs to the Zhan family. Du Yanzheng is going to be the next president while the other one is a highly respected genius. They indeed have the right to be arrogant.”
“But, compared to the almighty Hess family, whatever they had was nothing. Their family’s worth is only 5 trillion and 1 trillion separately. Even if we add the family worth of the Di family, there would only be 11 trillion. It’s nothing compared to the ones the Hess family has. Why are you insistent on making them return to the Hess family?”
Eddie was also willing to share his thoughts with Qi Ye.
He explained himself, “The Hess family has been overtaken by the AO2, and this has been the biggest insult I’ve ever felt. Our family has always been the first in the world, and no one has ever been able to win against us. When our father chose Jiamo to take over the family instead of me and abandoned his elder son, he said that I was a greedy and ambitious man with no abilities.
“I didn’t agree with him, and even until today, I don’t. I don’t think that my skills are worse than anyone else. Amongst all of the projects that I have invested in, about 98% of them are making a profit. However, AO2 managed to easily overtake us because of his skills. How would I be able to live with that?”
“So, you have your eyes on Zhan Lichuan’s talent?”
“His intelligence has been artificially modified. Perhaps other than Jiali, I am the only person on earth who knows how smart he can be. He’s still young now, and that’s why he can’t be compared to the man who owns AO2. However, if he could work for me and be able to design products under my guidance, I can promise that within 20 years, the Ops Corporates would definitely grow to become something better than AO2. By then, the Hess family would also return to its old glory of being the first in the world.
“Along with Du Yanzheng, who is already the head of the Du family. If he becomes the next president, he would be able to bring me more chances in Country Z. AO2 will no longer be something to me. So, it is crucial for me to get them to join the family.”
“But, what they demanded is…” There was a suspicious look in Qi Ye’s eyes as he lowered his head.
“What’s with that look in your eyes? Did you really think that I am the one who killed Jiamo?”
Qi Ye wanted to ask if Eddie was the one who did it, but he was still trying to remain loyal.
“You weren’t working for me back then, so you wouldn’t know about this. Although I am the one with the most obvious motive, I am not the one who did it. This is why I asked Jiali the same question yesterday.”
Seeing how shocked Qi Ye was, Eddie continued, “However, Jiali continued denying it, and I have no other choice as well. I have investigated the matter multiple times since 28 years ago. Although I do think that it is highly possible that Jiali would be the one, I still couldn’t find anything.”
“Is this why you got me to check Mr. El?” Qi Ye asked in return.
“It’s not me anyways. The only person who would kill Jiamo would either be Jiali or El. I don’t think that El would do something like this since he would be willing to sacrifice his life for her. Why would he kill Jiamo?”
