Chapter 33
Hearing Roger''s words, Henry Jefferson''s face turned livid.
Of course, he knew Roger was humiliating him.
Felix hurriedly asked, "Of course. By the way, how will our dear nephew help us out this time?"
Roger Jefferson snorted softly, "My grandfather said that this time I am here as the representative to
give you one billion to revive the East Coast Jefferson family!"
What?
One billion!
Hearing this, Felix, Patrick and all the others were overjoyed.
Even Henry couldn''t help but be moved.
A billion.
Before the fall of the East Coast Jefferson family, their total assetsbined were barely about one
billion.
But Roger just gave them one billion upfront.
Comparisons would only disappoint!
It appeared that their Pinkerton rtives were indeed much stronger than they were.
"Really? That''s awesome! It looks like we can make aeback soon!"
Felix said excitedly.
When he saw the excited expressions on their faces, Roger said lightly, "Don''t get too excited just yet.
We are willing to give out one billion only on certain conditions."
Hearing this, Felix asked cautiously, "I am curious. On what conditions?"
Roger took out a contract and said, "The conditions are very simple. After the Jefferson Group is re-
established, we, the Pinkerton Jefferson family will enjoy absolute ownership, and you, the East Coast
Jefferson family are just our employees. If we all agree on this, let''s sign this contract."
What in the world!
When they heard this, Felix and the others were dumbfounded.
They thought Roger wasing to help them get back on track.
Unexpectedly, they were asked to work for the Pinkerton Jefferson family instead.
In an instant, they fell from heaven to hell.
"Get the heck out of here! Even if we starve to death, we won''t be working for you!"
Henry finally lost control, stood up and roared.
The contract that Roger came up with was nothing short of pressing them to the ground and rubbing
them hard.
All their dignity was trampled on the ground.
Roger sneered, "Are you sure you won''t sign it? I respect whatever decision you have. But I won''t stop

you from just wanting to wait and starve to death on the streets!"
After saying that, Roger was about to turn and leave.
"Hold on!"
Seeing Roger leaving, Felix yelled hastily.
"What now? Did you change your mind?"
Roger turned his head and asked Felix with a smug face.
Felix gritted his teeth and said, "We will sign this contract!"
For Felix, he would rather lose his dignity and work for the Pinkerton Jeffersons than starve to death on
the streets.
"You rebel! Only over my dead body will I sign!"
When he heard what Felix said, Henry eximed angrily.
Felix looked at Henry and said with a dejected expression, "Dad, we have to bow our heads under the
eaves. Do you really want us to starve to death?"
"Grandpa, I''m still so young, I haven''t got married or have children yet. We have to save the bloodline
of the Jefferson family - I don''t want to die!"
Patrick also shouted.
Lorie cried, "Dad, just sign it. We really have no choice!"
"You..."
Henry looked at Felix and the others, and suddenly felt a sadness in his heart.
This was the son that he adored the most?
Unexpectedly, in the end, it was they who forced him to sign such a humiliating contract!
At this time, Henry suddenly thought of John Jefferson, his eldest son.
Henry never had liked John since he was a kid.
Because in Henry''s eyes, John was weak and useless.
If the Jefferson family had been handed over to him, it would have definitely declined.
But John had been such a good boy since he was a child, and he would certainly not force Henry to
sign.
In an instant, two lines of warm tears slipped down from Henry''s eyes.
"Fine, I will sign!"
