Chapter 54 The Predetermined Outcome!
The Johnson Family Residence
A morning meeting was being held, and except for Ernest's family, all the members of the Johnson family were present.
Grandpa Johnson, sitting at the head, had a dark expression.
His mood was extremely bad at the moment.
Last night, Ryder broke his cane and insulted him harshly! It kept him awake all night once he returned home.
So early in the morning, he gathered the Johnson family to discuss how to deal with the issues related to Ryder.
Matthew slammed the table and cursed, "The Johnson family won't tolerate him anymore! We must kick out this trash from the Johnson family and cut off all ties!"
Matthew's wife, Macy, clenched her teeth and agreed. "Just look at what this trash has done to our Andy!"
Andy, sitting beside them with his head wrapped in bandages, looked like a fool.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Not only do I want Ryder out of the Johnson family, but I want him to meet his demise!"
Abigail had already heard about what happened last night. In her opinion, Sarah being kidnapped by Sam was all Andy's fault.
It must be his way of helping her vent her anger, deliberately getting himself into danger to lure Sarah in.
This apology seemed quite sincere.
So Abigail no longer felt any hostility towards Andy and started talking, "Brother, after Ryder went crazy last night, didn't he go looking for Sarah? Sarah is in Sam's hands, so Ryder must have been beaten when he went there. We don't need to intervene!"
Andy shook his head, sounding like he understood everything. "You don't understand Ryder! That bastard is a bully who's afraid of tough guys. He only shows off in front of us, but when he sees Sam, he'll kneel down like a baby."
"He might even willingly hand Sarah over to Sam for a good night's sleep! Wasn't Sarah able to secure the bidding qualification before by sleeping with someone?"
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Johnson spit on the ground. "This woman has truly brought shame to our Johnson family!"
Lawrence took a sip of tea. "No, you shouldn't say that. If Sarah can really take care of Sam properly and give us some benefits, it shouldn't be bad!"
Hearing this, Matthew sneered. "That's wishful thinking! What do you think Sarah is? She's not a good person either, she's heartless. If she really attaches herself to the Smith family, don’t you believe that the first thing she'll do is come back and slap our faces? You think we can gain some benefits? I'm afraid that by then, we won't even be able to hold our heads up in front of her!"
Upon hearing Matthew's words, everyone's expressions changed slightly. His words made sense.
Grandpa Johnson had a deep understanding of Sam's arrogant personality.
If Sarah had the intention to seek revenge, Sam would definitely stand by her side and relentlessly suppress them!
At that time, the situation would be extremely ugly.
Abigail worriedly asked, "What should we do if it's really like that? Now that we already have this jerk Ryder causing unrest in the family, if we add Sam to the mix, we won't be able to handle it! We can't possibly grovel before Sarah in the future, can we? I can't do that!"
Matthew rubbed his forehead, wearing a worried expression. He couldn't think of a good solution either.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Andy, who was playing with his phone, suddenly started shouting with excitement.
"Good news! Good news!"
Grandpa Johnson frowned unhappily. "With our family in such a mess, what good news could there be?"
Andy hastily explained, "I just saw on the official news that Sam's father, Joseph, was killed in a car accident last night, and the Smith Group has also been exposed for illegal activities and is currently under investigation by the relevant authorities. It means that the Smith family is finished!"
"Is it true or not?" Matthew couldn't believe it and took Andy's phone to see.
After reading the news, his previously gloomy expression immediately blossomed with joy. "It's true! Our Johnson family is so lucky!"
The meeting room exploded with excitement.
Grandpa Johnson stood up straight. The insults they suffered at Sam's place last night seemed to disappear in that instant!
"Dare to mess with our Johnson family? This is the unfortunate outcome!"
Abigail sneered and mocked, "Sarah just became Sam's mistress and already killed him! It's obvious she has an unlucky fate. She’s far inferior to me!"
Andy suddenly thought of something. "Grandpa, since the Smith family collapsed, our promise to withdraw from the bidding qualification last night is no longer valid. The Johnson family still has the qualification to participate in the Maple Real Estate bidding!"
Grandpa Johnson nodded. "That's right! The Smith Group is also one of the bidders for this project. Now that the Smith family is finished, it means they can't participate in the bidding. We have one less powerful competitor."
However, Andy was still worried. "But Grandpa, I had an incident yesterday, and I didn't have time to organize the bidding proposal documents. I'm afraid tomorrow's bidding..."
Grandpa Johnson confidently said, "Don't worry, I have a way!"
...
Ryder rode an electric scooter with Sarah to the branch office.
Sarah was taken away by Grandpa Johnson last night, and her red Mazda was parked at the company. Otherwise, Ryder wouldn't have had the opportunity to drive her there.
On the way, Sarah hugged Ryder's waist, and her chest lightly pressed against his back.
With the occasional bumps on the road, Ryder could feel a soft pressure.
In response, Ryder had to change the subject to distract himself and asked, "After all the commotion yesterday and just being discharged from the hospital this morning, why are you still thinking about coming to work?"
Sarah answered, "The Smith family collapsed, but the Johnson family can still participate in the bidding. Therefore, I need to come to the company."
