Chapter: 1597
However, Raymond, as if the heavens had neglected to bestow upon him any business acumen at birth, displayed an utter lack of business sense.
Having managed the family's enterprises for merely a year or two, he had squandered a substantial sum.
"I... I've lost such a significant amount of money? How is that even possible?" Raymond's expression grew bewildered and disoriented.
His investment strategy was marked by a Lack of record-keeping. He neither knew the extent of his investments nor cared.
He made investment decisions based on his personal preferences and the praise he received from the owners of the projects.
Eventually, he couldn't even recall the exact amount he had frittered away.
"It's alright," Anthony reassured calmly.
Upon hearing this, Raymond too let out a sigh of relief.
After all, the Wilson family was affluent and could stand some financial losses.
Yes! They could afford it!
However, Anthony went on, "Nevertheless, there are family regulations, and starting this year, the losses you've incurred will be deducted from your dividends until they are fully offset."
Raymond seethed with anger upon hearing this.
"On what grounds do you have the authority to deduct my money? You aren't the family's head! In fact... The Wilson family is now under my control!"
Nevertheless, due to his raised voice, Raymond began coughing uncontrollably, unable to maintain his composure.
“In that case, henceforth, you won't take charge of the Wilson family anymore."
An elderly, somewhat feeble voice emanated from the bedroom.
Raymond and Marilyn instinctively turned toward the source of the voice, only to be astonished by the sight of Michael, who was unconscious before, and now supported by Maria, was walking out of the bedroom with the aid of a cane.
"Father!" cried Raymond.
Upon spotting Michael, Raymond paled in shock.
After composing himself, he rushed over and anxiously inquired about Michael's condition.
Marilyn wore an expression of disbelief, mirroring Raymond's shock.
She had personally assessed Michael and was well aware of the gravity of his condition.
But now, Michael had not only awakened but was also able to walk.
Marilyn swiftly caught on and shot Maria an incredulous, slightly envious look.
