    Chapter 341 A Hint Of Warning


    At that moment, the atmosphere at the home of Eric Quirk, David’s third bro


    +5 Pearls


    was somewhat tense.


    Eric personally went to the airport to wee David and his family. Given the importance Eric


    ced on Alexander, he initially wanted to bring his wife, Joanna, along. However, thetter felt


    unwell then, so she didn’t join him.


    Eric went with his son and daughter instead.


    Right then, his son, Dn Quirk, wore a sour expression. “I still think today’s reception was overly


    grand. If it weren’t for the circumstances not allowing it, were you all nning to turn up in full force?


    When Uncle David and his family returned previously, this never happened. Is it just because


    Alexander is among them this time? Even if he’s now in charge of Quirk Group, you and Uncle Felix


    are his elders. Was there a need to personally make a trip to the airport? I don’t think he cared


    much anyway.”


    Eric was a rtively stern father. Upon hearing that, he immediately retorted frostily, “Have you


    forgotten what I taught you usually? You showed no consideration at all in your words. As elders,


    we bear some responsibility for Alexander’s current temperament. If it hadn’t been necessary for


    David and Selena to go out and shift their focus to work for the Quirk family, Alexander wouldn’t


    have been left alone at the Quirk estate so young, developing psychological issues due to ack of


    his parents‘pany. This time, he finally overcame his trauma toe back and visit your


    grandfather. Naturally, this should be taken seriously.”


    In truth, Dn didn’t dare talk back to his father. But at that moment, he couldn’t help but argue, “I


    find it strange that the lot of you would choose someone psychologically unstable to be the heir.


    What’s the rush? Waiting for a few more years won’t hurt. If Uncle David wants to step down, aren’t


    there still you and Uncle Felix?”


    “Shut up! He’s your cousin. What are you thinking?” Eric’s words already carried a hint of warning.


    Suppressing the urge to argue for a moment, Dn relented, “Well, I was just curious… Everyone


    out there says so.”


    Eric snorted coldly, saying, “The people here in Yrinas usually don’t deal with Alexander firsthand,


    so they naturally wouldn’t know. Do you think it was David who wanted to retire? It was because he


    knew he wasn’t Alexander’s match in capability. There was nothing he could do to stay there, so he


    retired. You’ve just started working at Quirk Group and have yet the authority to interact with him.


    Once you’ve worked with him a few times, you’ll understand.”

    Seeing the proud expression on Eric’s face, Dn couldn’t help but clench his fists. It was because


    of Alexander that this usually reticent father of mine engaged in such lengthy idle chatter with me.


    However, he simply couldn’t ept it, finding that there was nothing so great about Alexander. He


    didn’t think that his father was inferior to David, so naturally, he didn’t believe that he was inferior to


    Alexander either. The only difference was that Alexander was born a few years earlier.


    “Do you not remember how much you admired him when you were young?” Eric couldn’t help but


    ask, fearing that his son might be overly prideful and arrogant.


    With a dryugh, Dn said, “No, I don’t.”


    After some thought, Eric found that it made sense. Well it’s to be expected. Since Dn started to


    retain memories, Alexander became taciturn.

    +5 Pearls


    ni Caitlin’s daughter, grown incredibly


    “Anyway, learn more from him in the future and work closely with him. Just do whatever he directs


    you to do. I guarantee that you’ll achieve more than our generation ever did. Sarah, y does that.


    Felix’s two children joined thepany a year before you did, and fast. It was all thanks to


    Alexander’s guidance. He may not be someone who shows his emotions openly, but he’s beyond


    reproach in treating family


    Dn felt that he might burst a blood vessel speaking to his father about that matter.


    Other families have fierce internal strife. Why is the Quirk family filled with simpletons, easily


    manipted by a few smart ones? But there’s one area where Alexander doesn’t seem so smart.


    He was somehow tricked into marrying an utterly useless woman. Not only is her family inplete


    disarray and had no background to speak of, but she is not highly educated herself. Rumor has it


    that she even became aedian. In this, he lost to me forever.


    He didn’t want to continue speaking of that topic, so he changed the subject and asked, “By the


    way, will you be announcing the matter of about you and Mom adopting a goddaughter openly in


    front of the whole family this time? We’re supposed to bring Ceci along this time, but you insisted


    that it wasn’t appropriate.


    Dnined incessantly, failing to notice that his sister, Janice Quirk, who had been huddled


    in the corner without saying a word, flinched upon hearing that.


    Eric’s brows furrowed slightly. “I’m still thinking about it. I’ll discuss it with your grandfather first. If he


    doesn’t agree, we’ll drop this matter.”


    Immediately, Dn retorted furiously, “She saved Mom’s life!”
