Chapter 478
Harvey said smugly, “It’s simple supply and demand–everyone wins. We’re making money faster than my father ever did. Too bad he’s not alive to see how I’ve made the Weller family more prosperous than ever!”
Serena beamed as she walked over to Harvey’s chair, settling down beside him. She purred, ” Once you’ve built up the Weller family empire, don’t forget my contribution.”
At that moment, Brad Weller, Harvey’s uncle and a senior member of the family, walked into the living room. His face darkened immediately at the scene before him.
“What do you think you’re doing? Have some decency–you’re bringing shame to the Weller family name!” Brad exclaimed angrily.
Harvey and Serena barely reacted to his outburst Harvey simply smiled and said, “Uncle Brad, don’t act so shocked–this isn’t the first time you’ve seen us together.”
Brad warned him, “Harvey, do you realize how disgraceful this behavior is? You’re an educated man–how can you act so inappropriately?”
Harvey replied coldly, “Uncle Brad, I’m the head of the Weller family now. I make the decisions about what’s appropriate. Besides, your family depends on me for your livelihood- stop pretending to be so righteous.
Brad deflated and muttered, “Harvey, you’re our family head. You represent us. I have no right to interfere with your personal choices, but please be more discreet–think of the family’s reputation!”
Harvey laughed. “Anyone who sees anything will know better than to gossip. Actually, Uncle Brad, you’ve come at the perfect time. I have something I need you to do.”
Brad looked over, staring at Serena’s hips and chest. Nonetheless, he quickly looked away, trying to maintain a professional demeanor. “What do you need?”
Harvey explained, “Our health supplements are selling incredibly well. We’re making a fortune every day! However, Rhodes Corporation’s pharmaceutical division remains our biggest competitor with decades of market presence. So I’ve made some arrangements to bring down their medical department in one fell swoop.”
“How did you manage that? T–That’s remarkable!” Brad exclaimed in shock.
Harvey smiled proudly and replied, “You don’t need to know the details. I just need you to do one thing–meet with Marcus Chapman from Rhodes Corporation and collect the pharmaceutical formulas he’ll be delivering.”
“Is this… Is this assignment dangerous?” Brad asked hesitantly.
Harvey sneered. “What danger could there be? I’d do it myself if I weren’t so busy. Marcus is completely under my control. If he doesn’t cooperate, his entire family will pay the price!”
