CHAPTER 47: CHAPTER 47: LEARNING THE INSIDE STORY

"That Golden Kapok Card was lent to him by my uncle. Otherwise, considering his powerless position as just an assistant, did you really think he could join the Angela Club and receive the Golden Kapok Card?"

This morning, after waking up from the alcohol, Nathan Jacobs specifically called his uncle because of the Golden Kapok Card.

But Nathan Jacobs knew that anything involving Kyle Keaton could easily anger his uncle.

So during the call, Nathan Jacobs specifically avoided any mention related to Kyle Keaton, only asking Miles Jacobs, "Do you have a Golden Kapok Card issued by Angela Bank?"

Without mentioning Kyle Keaton, his uncle Miles Jacobs was quite easy to get along with.

Regarding the card, Miles Jacobs honestly replied: "Yes, I indeed benefited from a friend’s favor and received a Golden Kapok Card."

With this response, Nathan Jacobs concluded that Kyle Keaton’s Golden Kapok Card was indeed borrowed from Miles Jacobs.

But he didn’t know that actually, Kyle Keaton was the "friend" mentioned by Miles Jacobs.

Hence, he felt confident when responding to Amanda Ford at this moment.

"Oh, just an assistant, I thought..."

Amanda Ford didn’t finish her sentence, but disappointment was evident in her tone.

That’s exactly the effect Nathan Jacobs wanted.

A mere assistant dared to act all high and mighty over him, Nathan Jacobs?

Ha!

Wishful thinking!

At this moment, Nina Quinn also snuggled intimately beside Nathan Jacobs.

"Mom, I told you he was just an assistant, but you didn’t believe me? Otherwise, why would he have let Dad pay for last night’s birthday party?"

The matter of Kyle Keaton having the manager hand the bill directly to Charles Quinn was something Nina Quinn had only heard from Amanda Ford this morning.

After all, she had spent the entire previous night under Nathan Jacobs.

"He made Uncle pay?" Nathan Jacobs scoffed coldly and added, "But it makes sense. He’s just an assistant; where would he get the money to pay for a party?"

Perhaps this incident restored a bit of Nathan Jacobs’ dignity, as afterwards, the Quinn Family’s attitude towards him returned to its previous state.

After all, Nathan Jacobs is still the eldest grandson of the Jacobs Family.

As long as Nina Quinn successfully marries Nathan Jacobs, the Jacobs Family would help the Quinn Family.

But just when their family was getting along harmoniously with Nathan Jacobs, Charles Quinn’s phone rang.

He hadn’t been on the call long before his face turned frighteningly dark.

"What? She transferred the Verona Winery to someone with the surname Keaton?"

Verona Winery only started a few years ago, but because of the good quality of the wine, its reputation in the country rose quickly.

Last year, Verona Winery became one of the top three famous wineries in the country.

Its annual revenue now matches that of the Quinn Group’s Gala Entertainment.

If the winery’s wine ages further over the next few years, it would only be a matter of time before its revenue exceeds Gala Entertainment’s.

What was frustrating was that when July Quinn returned to the country, Old Master Quinn dismissed all objections and transferred the winery to July Quinn’s name.

This became a major source of frustration for Charles Quinn.

However, Charles Quinn didn’t completely give up on Verona Winery, considering how lucrative it was.

So after Old Master Quinn passed away, he kept a close watch on this profitable asset.

He even installed his own spy within Verona Winery, hoping July Quinn would slip up one day and the winery could be brought back.

However, July Quinn suddenly transferring the winery to someone else caught Charles Quinn completely off guard.

Not just Charles Quinn; even Amanda Ford, Nina Quinn, and Nathan Jacobs were all infuriated.

"Is she crazy?"

"It’s our Quinn Family’s asset; how could she casually give it to an outsider?"

Amanda Ford and Nina Quinn were angry, frustrated at July Quinn for squandering the Quinn Family’s assets.

As for Nathan Jacobs, he was also angry at July Quinn for giving such a significant asset to Assistant Keaton.

After all, he pursued July Quinn so diligently back then precisely because of the massive asset she held in Verona Winery.

But aside from the anger, Nathan Jacobs also felt an inexplicable panic.

July Quinn was so generous to Assistant Keaton, even casually transferring the winery to him. Does this mean she... likes Assistant Keaton?

Charles Quinn ignored others’ shouting, only pressing the spy in Verona Winery for information.

"Where’s that brat? Where is she now?"

If he catches that brat, he won’t spare her from a good scolding.

The answer he got from the spy instantly sent Charles Quinn’s blood pressure soaring.

"What? Went to White Horse Paradise?!"
