Chapter 722 Do You Believe in Time Travel?
Indeed, Beckett Ashford wanted to regain his power and become the ruler of the Ashford family again, but he couldn't bear to take it like this.
He had to remind Alexander, "Alexander, do you know what consequences there will be if I take control again? Grandfather doesn't only have your father as a son, nor only you as a grandson. Once the ruling power goes back to grandfather, your uncles and aunts, your cousins, will all have the right to share the wealth of the Ashford family. Then, your share will be much smaller."
Alexander replied, "If I were afraid of my uncles, aunts, and cousins taking a share of my wealth, I wouldn't have taken the risk to go to the underworld to save all of you. Money is just material possessions, and family is what's most important."
He continued, "Grandfather, to be honest with you, I have grown tired of the company. I even thought about transferring the position of the ruler to my older brother, but he's not interested in it either. We were discussing the idea of taking turns managing the company."
"Now that grandfather, dad, mom, uncles, and aunts have all returned, my older brother and I can finally be truly free."
"Yes, completely free, with no more pressure." Owen Ashford held Bluey's hand tightly. "From now on, Bluey and I will pursue acting together and become widely-known stars. We can make easy money just by doing some advertisements. How quickly do you think we can earn a lot of money?"
Bluey nodded happily, "Owen is right. We will act together. And when we have no acting projects, we can
"Together, let's explore the mountains and enjoy the scenery!"
"Ivy and I can go to the set too..."
Alexander eagerly wanted to grab Ivy's hand. Not seeing anyone around him, he suddenly remembered that Ivy was staying at home with Florence.
In order to be able to go on a double flight with Ivy as soon as possible, Alexander wasted no time.
He immediately informed the major shareholders, called for a shareholders' meeting, and transferred the position of power in the Ashford Family Group to his grandfather, Beckett Ashford.
But this brought about another problem.
Everyone knew that Alexander's grandfather, Beckett Ashford, as well as his parents, uncles, and aunts, had all died twenty years ago. Now that they suddenly reappeared, it was naturally a great surprise to everyone.
After all, this was the age of the internet, and once any news was released, it would quickly spread around the world.
Just five minutes after Beckett Ashford took office, media outlets from all over rushed to the Ashford Family Group simultaneously.
Beckett Ashford, Jaxon Ashford, Alexander, and Owen Ashford, three generations of family members, walked side by side towards the entrance as if they were four brothers.
Calliope Ashford and Bluey, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, walked closely behind them, like sisters. The two of them were still discussing going back to cook for everyone to eat.
No one would have expected the reporters to suddenly appear at the entrance so quickly.
"Mr. Alexander, there are rumors that your grandfather, Beckett Ashford, has come back to life. Is this true?"
"Someone informed us that not only has your grandfather come back to life, but your parents, uncles and aunts, and even your twin siblings have also come back to life. What is going on?"
"Mr. Ashford, once a person dies, how is it possible to come back to life? Please tell us the truth!"
Alexander furrowed his brows slightly. Who was so heartless to spread the news of his grandfather's resurrection? It must have been someone from within.
However, now that the news was out, even if he kept it a secret today, outsiders would eventually find out. He had to give the outside world a reasonable explanation.
How could he explain this?
He definitely couldn't tell the truth. If everyone knew that people could come back to life after death, both he and Ivy would have a difficult time in the future.
Not only would they be troubled by people in the mortal world, but also by people from the underworld.
Alexander cleared his throat, jokingly looking at the cameras, and said, "What if I told you that they time-traveled to another era twenty years ago and have now returned? Would you believe it?"
The reporters immediately exploded.
"Time travel?"
"Can people really time travel?"
"I think it's possible. Otherwise, how could Alexander's grandfather and parents look so young?"
