He could even hope to be re -elected four years later.
When he stepped down, he could let his son, Ryan, take over his position.
Nathan smiled. “Thankfully, we had Shaun this time. If he hadn’t found Matthew and suppressed Wesley in time, I wouldn’t have been able to deal with Wesley even if I managed to stop Gavin from rebelling. Moreover, considering Wesley’s overweening ambition, I honestly don’t feel like leaving him alive.”
Everyone turned their gazes to Shaun’s tall and sturdy figure.
Even Titus and Matthew could not help but admire Shaun.
Nathan patted Shaun on the shoulder and continued to praise him. “What’s more, it was Shaun who suggested this plan. He deliberately approached Hannah to make everyone think that he had been left with no choice but to butter her up. Another reason was that the Meads and Wesley had been taking delight in trampling on Shaun. They were under the impression that everything was within their grasp. When they became negligent, we managed to save Matthew. Shaun, I appreciate your hard work. It must’ve been tough for you.”
“Uncle Nathan, don’t say that. I just got rid of an albatross for myself too,” Shaun said with a frown, “If it hadn’t been for Wesley and Gavin, I wouldn’t have ended up in this state.”
Upon hearing what he said, Sheryl felt both embarrassed and upset.
She knew that the Lyons family would not have ended up in this state if she had not incited things.
Her thin lips twitched with difficulty. “Shaun… Lyons Corporation is yours. I’ll return it to you.”
“That’s wonderful, Shaun— ” Rodney was cheerful but before he could finish his sentence, Shaun lifted his hand to stop him.
Shaun’s calm face gave nothing away. “Lyons Corporation has been renamed Jere Corporation, so it’s not mine.”
Sheryl’s face turned crimson with shame.
The name ¡®Jere Corporation’ was simply an object of ridicule now. “I’m sorry. At that time, I didn’t “The fact is that I lost.”
Shaun cut in, “As the former chairman of Lyons Corporation, I failed to secure the company due to my incompetence. Although it was a hostile takeover, I’m still a failure. A competent person would’ve been able to solve the crisis even in the face of a hostile takeover. Secondly, Rosabella spent a huge amount of money to buy the shares from the shareholders back then. Even my biological aunt and uncle have taken your money and left. In that case, it doesn’t make sense to return the company to me. The company is yours, and I’m just a shareholder.”
From his frankness, Titus and Sheryl found him praiseworthy.
Sheryl was filled with complicated feelings. Her daughter had really good taste, but sadly…
“So… I’ll let Cate… take charge of the company “She won’t want it.” Shaun disapproved of her decision. “I’m guessing that she won’t even want to acknowledge you as her mother.”
Sheryl’s chest was in knots, which made her suffocate.
As she was about to speak, she suddenly saw a commissioned officer walking in while holding a boy’s hand. The boy was cool and seemed to be around three years old.
“Hey, Lucas. Were you terrified?” Grinning, Rodney walked up to Lucas. He stretched out his hand to pinch Lucas’ face.
Lucas immediately blocked his hand and walked straight to Shaun with an indifferent expression.
Shaun’s eyes beamed. He lowered his head and caressed Lucas’ hair. “Good job. When I get back, I’ll tell Mommy about it and ask her to praise you.”
“Ahem. Forget it. I don’t want her to worry about me,” Lucas promptly answered.
Sheryl stared at Lucas in a state of disbelief.
She previously did not know that Cate was her daughter. Now that she had found out the truth, it hit her that this little boy in front of her was her grandson.
In addition, Lucas bore a close resemblance to Cate and herself as well.
Sheryl’s eyes reddened as she looked at the boy.
The more she reflected on the matter, the more she hated Rosabella and the rest.
Due to their interference, Sheryl became so foolish that she failed to recognize her own daughter and grandchildren.
She was filled with resentment, yet she dared not step forward.
She was afraid that the kid would hate her.
Mattew darted a glance at her. Then, he turned and said to Lucas with a smile, “Kiddo, come here. Can you guess who I am? I’m your uncle.”
Lucas’ eyes swept over Matthew, Sheryl, and Titus before he said coolly, “Don’t simply take me for your relative. My mom doesn’t have a brother, so I don’t have an uncle.”
At the sight of his cold expression, Rodney raised his thumb in admiration in spite of himself.
This kid was indeed arrogant and offhand. Did he know who the Costners were? They were the kind of people admired by others wherever they went.
Matthew was not mad. Instead, he took great interest in Lucas. “Hey, you’re interesting, kiddo.”
He grinned and walked forward to pinch Lucas’ delicate face.
Lucas nimbly stretched out a hand to block his hand. “I hate people touching my face.”
At that moment, Mathew broke into laughter, and so did Titus. “Your mom gave birth to such an interesting pair of fraternal twins. Unfortunately, she’s not my biological daughter.”
After pausing for a moment, Titus cast a disdainful look at Matthew.
Matthew was speechless.
What was wrong with him? He just did not have a girlfriend and a pair of fraternal twins. What was so great about those things? When he got married later, he would give birth to triplets.
Even Sheryl’s gaze revealed a sense of warmth.
Nevertheless, she only fixed her deep gaze on Lucas without moving forward.
As much as she wanted to step forward to hug Lucas, she knew that she might lose the only chance of saving her relationship with her daughter if she acted so recklessly again.
She fought back her urge, which resulted in her shortness of breath.
Titus noticed her condition. “I’m going to bring Sherry to the hospital. Also, Matthew is still injured. We’ll leave first.”
“Don’t worry, President Costner. We’ll arrange for the best doctor to treat your wife, ” Nathan said politely.
Titus nodded and said to Shaun, “I’ll come and meet you afterward. Thanks for saving my son.”
After he finished speaking, he left with Matthew and Sheryl.
Shaun led Lucas, Nathan, and the others to walk out as well.
“Shaun, why didn’t you accept Lyons Corporation just now?” Rodney thought that it was a waste. “What’s more, the Costners owe you for saving Matthew. You deserve it.”
“I saved Matthew for my own sake, ” Shaun said simply, “Moreover, I can make a comeback at any time as long as I’m still competent.”
“You’re right.” Nathan shot an admiring look at Shaun. “Shaun, are you interested in joining politics?”
“Forget it. I’m more interested in making money.” Shaun shrugged. “In fact, I’m not desperate for money now. I just hope that nobody will come and cause me trouble so that I can live a peaceful life. Plus… I have something more important to deal with.”
“What’s that?” Rodney asked curiously.
“Pursuing a woman.” Shaun’s sexy, thin lips curved up. “I’ve already taken revenge, but I need a girlfriend.”
Rodney was at a loss for words.
He wondered why he previously never realized that Shaun was so flirty.
Was this Shaun’s true character after losing his memory?
“Let’s go.”
Shaun held Lucas’ hand and they got in the car.
Lucas sat in the back seat nonchalantly and scoffed with mixed feelings. “I can’t deny your well- intentioned actions in approaching Hannah before this, but Mommy has completely given up on you. “
“You don’t know about this kind of stuff, you brat. This is a matter between adults.”
Shaun knocked on the steering wheel gently. ” What’s more, it doesn’t matter even if she doesn’t love me anymore. I can make her fall for me again. “
Lucas frowned. “You’ve lost your memory and forgotten your relationship with Mommy, so why won’t you let her go?”
