“How do you intend to have someone bear the cost of damage?” Sean Smith asked.
“Didn’t we promise to hand over our subsidiary, Diva Limited, over to the Zabinski family?” Samuel Smith said with a cold smile.
“Since the Zabinski family intends to wipe us out, we shouldn’t hand Diva Limited over to them. Instead, we should let Benson’s family have it!”
The old man was stunned. “What? Give Diva Limited to that ingrate, Benson?”
Samuel nodded. “That’s right. We won’t just give him Diva Limited. We’ll also invite him back into the family.”
Sean stared at him wide-eyed. “I chased them out, but we’re going to ask them to come back now and even offer them a subsidiary?”
“I got it now, Dad,” Paul said with a grin. “This is what Samuel meant when he said to have someone else bear the cost of damage.
“We said we’d give Diva Limited to the Zabinski family, so it’s very likely that they’ll send someone over to claim it from us.
“But if we offer Benson the company too, there’s a high chance that he and the Zabinskis will start a fight over Diva!”
Samuel grinned. “That’s right. We’re going to have Benson bore the cost of damage on our behalf!
“Besides, Benson can share some of our burdens if we invite him and his family back.”
That idea finally dawned upon Sean Smith. “I see what you mean now,” he said with a smile. “Alright. We’ll invite Benson back into the family and let him have Diva Limited by tomorrow!”
......
The next morning, Sean and the rest of the family dropped by Benson’s residence at the Riverside Garden bringing them various gifts.
Benson Smith and his family were so surprised that they hurriedly invited everyone into the house.
Sean thanked Nathan and Penny for saving Samuel last night, then turned to Benson. “I’ve made some mistakes in the past, Benson. I’m here today to invite you and your family back into the Smith clan!”
Benson was filled with excitement and disbelief.
But Leah felt rather doubtful. “This is too much to handle. You might kick us out again if we make you guys upset one day.”
“Dad is being completely earnest this time, Leah,” Samuel said with a grin.
“That’s right,” Paul chimed in. “Dad has even decided to hand our biggest subsidiary, Diva Limited, over to you and your family. From now on, every cent Diva makes will be yours!”
Benson and Leah weren’t the only ones who were shocked.
Even Nathan and Penny exchanged glances. At this rate, pigs might fly!
Benson was honest and kind-hearted by nature.
His eyes watered at the fact that his father had come to apologize to him personally and invite him back into the family. The old man had even given him Diva Limited, which was worth over five hundred
million!
“I’m eternally grateful, Dad. I don’t want Diva Limited, but I’ll return to the Smith clan.”
Sean chuckled while holding Benson’s hand. “No, I have to compensate you. Diva will be yours from now on. But I must remind you to manage it well. Don’t ruin such a fine company, or I’ll be extremely disappointed with you!”
Benson used to think his father never gave him a chance to prove himself, but now his time had come.
He was overwhelmed with excitement and he declared loudly, “I’ll definitely manage Diva well, Dad. I’ll never let it fall until the day I die.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“Alright. I shall wait and see,” Sean said with an ambiguous smirk.
