“Okay, sell as many shares as we can to whoever it is. I don't care how many shares I have as long as my company can be saved!”

Mr. Weldien hung up the phone again just as Jonathan came back into the house. Jonathan smiled faintly, then he sat back beside Elissa.

"So, Mister Weldien, did something happen to your… business?" he asked.

“Tsk! You are an idiot, do you understand the matter of stocks and companies?” Mr. Weldien sneered. Then he looked back at the suitcases of money that were still on the table. "I do not know where you get this money, from stealing or from selling illicit goods. What is clear is that this money is already there to provide capital to your wife so that the plantations on the city border run smoothly, I think your money is enough for the next few years. Let's just say that the first challenge of some of my granddaughter Elissa is the winner this time. I don't care, give me a share of the money as a form of developing your business."

Jonathan glanced at his wife, while she tried to stop her husband from doing that.

"John, don't be stupid. we just follow the initial rules of the agreement that has been given by Grandfather. Waiting for several years to develop our plantations according to predetermined targets. Because in my opinion, if we get emotional and follow everything Grandpa said, we just want us to be considered capable, it will make us lose. Grandfather will get a few percent of this money. We have to manage this money first, in five years we can get more money, right? So don't waste the money you have."

"Are you sure you can develop your grandfather's long-bankrupt plantation which many people even say is very barren and can barely grow anything?"

“With your money I'm sure all the impossible things will become possible. We can build a dam with your money, then we can water all the arid land in the entire plantation. I'm sure with that much money it will be very supportive for us to do everything. I know it's going to cost us a lot, of course because we're just starting out in business. But believe me, after that we will reap the rewards, Jhon."

Jonathan thought the same thing too. why should he be provoked by all Mr. Weldien's words. Even Jonathan can buy time and focus on improving his life together with Elissa on the plantation there. Jonathan could at least live peacefully with Elissa. Problems with money and also the development of plantations, Jonathan can take care of them later anyway. Why did he have to make Mr. Weldien the most advantageous person in this case?

“Erm, I think that is very wrong and unfair, Mister Weldien. Because from the beginning you have given this challenge to your grandchildren and all of this was witnessed by all members of the Weldien family. With you passing Elissa as the eligible victor over everything because Elissa got the money from me, isn't that the same as cheating and unfair? Your other three grandchildren should also have the same chance to compete, simply because they don't have as much money as Elissa they will lose outright. That of course will seriously tarnish your honor as Mr. Weldien in the Weldien family. Would Mr. Weldien want that to happen?”

Mr. Weldien was silent, he didn't expect Jonathan to have this kind of thought. the figure of the son-in-law from the Weldien family who until now Mr. Weldien considered as the most useless man in the world, now seemed to be showing his fangs. Beyond that, Mr Weldien couldn't do much. The proof that Jonathan has succeeded in proving his words by bringing the amount of money he promised Amaris is proof of the fact that Jonathan is capable. More than that, even though Mr. Weldien so wanted to taste some of that big money he himself couldn't say it out loud, a sense of pride still enveloped him visibly.

“Amaris, have you forgotten your promise? Don't you already have a debt with Jonathan?”

“What debt, Grandfather? I feel like I don't owe anything.” Amaris is still stubborn and reluctant to admit defeat. Regarding the challenge, Amaris is really reluctant to admit it.

“You don't embarrass me in front of many people, Amaris. What has been your agreement from the start of the challenge you made with Jonathan. Hurry up and finish it soon and stop acting like you are the most naive human in the whole world. You have pissed me off because I lost a lot of shares in my own company because of your behavior, don't let you piss me off again because of all these things you've done. Do you still not understand that your mistakes are already unforgivable!”

"Grandpa …."

“Quickly kneel down and kiss Jonathan's feet! Do it chivalrously because you are the grandson of the Weldien family. Be a real man and don't embarrass me again!” snapped Mr. Weldien.

Jonathan just smiled, crossing his legs. Looking at Amaris, whose face was already red because she was embarrassed to be scolded by her grandfather in front of many people, was something Jonathan really enjoyed.

“Mr. Weldien doesn't need to be so hard on Amaris. I know that Amaris is the Weldien family's favorite granddaughter, Amaris is a granddaughter who is always proud and almost never makes any mistakes or bad actions. so how could this most precious grandson have to kiss my feet, am I not in the Weldien family the most useless, jobless and most… despicable son-in-law?” quipped Jonathan.

It felt like Jonathan's words really slapped Mr. Weldien and Amaris to perfection. both of them now can not even move at all. While Elissa could only smile, she didn't expect her husband to be able to say such things in front of her grandfather. The figure of the man who has the highest authority in the Weldien family.

“No, Jonathan. This must be straightened out. The pride of a family lies in its sons, and its grandsons. Likewise with granddaughter. If indeed Amaris had made a mistake then she should have made up for it. he lost the bet with you and he should have paid for all the things he bet with you.”

“Fine, if Mister Weldien insists. I really don't mind if Amaris kisses my feet. Note though, my socks look like they haven't been washed in a week by Elissa, and my shoes have just been stepped on by dog ​​feces. I hope Amaris won't hesitate to kiss my feet.”

Elissa even almost laughed at her husband's words, it seemed like Jonathan had really deliberately pushed his family to this point.

Mr. Weldien who heard that actually felt annoyed. Seeing his favorite granddaughter about to kiss the feet of the most useless person in the family was also what irritated her the most. However, Mr. Weldien tries to be fair. This was none other than because of the money that Elissa had received. Because Mr. Weldien doesn't want Jonathan to give up his intention of giving Elissa that much money because after all, if the business developed by Elissa goes forward, it will be the same as a big advantage for the Weldien family and also for him.

“Amaris, are you deaf? Hurry up and do it all!”

"All right, Grandpa."

Amaris finally knelt at Jonathan's feet, with a look of exasperation and extreme reluctance on her face. Slowly he kissed Jonathan's shoes which indeed seemed to be so smelly on purpose. Jonathan saw that with a proud smile.

“Elissa, can you capture this good moment? I want a memento, when I'm upset I can play it whenever I want, and it will really cheer me up."
