Chapter 806

“Great–grandpa, a classmate pushed me on purpose, and my forehead hit the corner of the table. It hurt so much… I bled a lot…” Wilhelm complained.

As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, making him look pitiful.

Pedro’s expression darkened as he demanded,What kind of teachers does that kindergarten have? Our family invests so much every year. Are they just sitting around doing nothing?!”

He turned his gaze to Jane and asked, “Did they expel the kid who pushed Wil?”

Seeing Pedro getting to the point, Jane sighed. She feigned a troubled look as if weighing whether to reveal the truth.

“What exactly happened? Don’t beat around the bush!” Pedro urged.

Jane glanced at the nearby maid and instructed, “Take Wil out to play in the garden.”

The maid nodded and led Wilhelm away from the living room.

Once the living room was left with just Jane and Pedro, she sat opposite him and said, ‘ Grandpa, it might be hard to deal with the kid who pushed Wil.”

Pedro glared. “Hard to deal with? No matter who it is, if my great–grandson is hurt, I won’t let it slide!”

“The kid who had the conflict with Wil is Nyla’s son… He’s also Damon’s biological son,” Jane informed him.

“What?!” Pedro’s expression shifted to one of disbelief.

After all, the Wilkies had only moved to Saintornia after Nyla’s accident and were unaware of Damon and Nyla’s past. Even Jane had learned about Damon having a child with Nyla through Rebecca.

”

Jane confirmed with a nod, “I’m telling the truth, and I’ve also sent someone to verify it.‘

The living room fell silent. If that child truly was Damon’s, it would complicate matters. They had just offended Damon at the party. Clinging to this issue would undoubtedly anger him further,

Still, Pedro couldn’t simply let Wil’s injury go unaddressed!

He looked grim.

Sensing the tension, Jane spoke up. “Grandpa, if this situation escalates, it won’t be good for our family to offend Damon again. But if we let it go, it won’t be fair to Wil, and I won’t stand for that either.”

“So, what do you plan to do?” Pedro asked, knowing his granddaughter well–she must have a plan in mind by coming to him.

“I want to use Wil’s injury as leverage to negotiate with Damon for some tangible benefits for the company,” she replied.

“Have you decided what you want from Damon?” Pedro inquired.

Jane nodded. “Yes, there’s a municipal project that’s up for bidding soon. If we compete, the Wilkie Group probably won’t stand a chance against Prospectus Technology.”

A flicker of surprise crossed Pedro’s eyes before he frowned. “Prospectus Technology has been preparing for that project for over half a year. Damon won’t easily back down.” Most importantly, once that project was secured, the profit margin would be at least 25%, attracting many eager companies in Saintornia

“I know Damon won’t drop out of the bidding. My plan is to partner with Prospectus Technology. Profit is secondary–the main goal is to build a connection,” Jane stated.

Once a connection was established, it would be up to their capabilities to secure future municipal projects. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

A hint of approval flashed in Pedro’s eyes. He simply said, “Then, I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Jane’s face lit up with joy as she promised, “I’ll handle it well!”

“Mm. Make sure to comfort Wil and encourage him to get along with that kid. We will need Damon’s support in many ways moving forward,” Pedro reminded her.
