Chapter 773
'Who would have thought this loser could get so lucky? Damn it! How am I supposed to deal with him now?' Alex thought.
His face darkened in anger. He was the most upset person there.
Patricia's uncle and aunt, Evan and Yvonne, were also unhappy. They looked really upset.
Dustin's surprising success meant their plan had failed.noveldrama
They had hoped to get rid of Dustin and use their daughter to snag a rich husband, but that was ruined.
Still, getting a 1-billion-dollar contract should bring some benefits, so it was not a total loss.
"Dustin, you're incredible!" Patricia said with admiration as she walked over to him.
'After this, he won't be looked down on in the Yeager family anymore,' she thought.
Everyone looked at Zack and waited for him to speak.
Zack flipped through the contract a few more times before looking at Dustin.
"Good job. This project is great for us," Zack said with approval.
"I checked the contract. The Mayhill development is based on the Yeager family's property, right?"
"Right." Dustin nodded.
"The contract isn't signed yet," Zack said with a smile.
"Not yet. Once you agree, Patricia can sign it, and it will be official."
Zack nodded.
"Since it's the Yeager family's property, this is a deal with us. Honestly, someone else could sign it, and it would be the same," he said meaningfully.
Patricia suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"What do you mean?" Dustin frowned.
"You did a good job earning this opportunity for the Yeager family. But from now on, you won't be in charge of the project. I'll give it to someone else," Zack said flatly.
"Is this backstabbing?" Dustin's face turned cold. He had not expected Zack to do this.
He had brought this big opportunity to the Yeager family, and this was how they were repaying him and Patricia?
The Yeager family members' reactions were mixed.
However, no one stood up for Dustin and Patricia. In fact, they were secretly pleased.
They could see it too. Dustin was an outsider, after all. Zack was happy, but deep down, he still looked down on Dustin.
'Great!' Alex thought. He was so happy he almost jumped up. He looked at Dustin with glee and secretly enjoyed the moment.
What did it matter if Dustin had good luck? What did it matter if he landed a huge contract? He was still looked down on by the Yeager family. His efforts did not matter.
"Grandpa, how can you do this?" Patricia could not hold back. It was so unfair. "This project was secured by Dustin. He should be the one in charge!"
"Patricia, know your place!" Zack glared at her. "Elders make the decisions. You have no right to question me!"
Patricia was left speechless.
In the Yeager family, Zack was the final authority. No one dared to challenge him.
"Dustin, do you understand? You're not allowed to be involved in this project anymore. You don't need to worry about Mayhill Pig Farm, either. I'll give it to someone else to handle," Zack said to Dustin again.
Dustin's face grew cold, and his eyes glinted in anger. He sneered.
He could see the clear disdain in Zack's eyes. Zack had never treated him like a normal person.
Zack dismissed Dustin's achievements and acted like it was completely normal.
"Why?" Patricia asked angrily. "Why should Dustin's hard work be taken away and given to someone else?"
"Why?" Zack's eyes turned sharp. "Because I'm the patriarch of this family. I have the final say in this family!
"I said it should be given to someone else, so it will be. No need for any other reason."
"You don't need any other reason?" Dustin scoffed.
Zack was too controlling.
"Remember, you're just an outsider. You have no say here. If you want to stay
with Patricia, just follow my orders.
"Otherwise, you can leave the Yeager family."
The atmosphere grew tense.
The Yeager family members were shocked to see Dustin challenge Zack. He was practically asking for trouble.
Dustin's face was cold. Zack was
vet
being unfair and had always down on him. This time, Zack had betrayed him in such a shameless way. It was infuriating.
Only the Yeager family members could turn their backs without any shame.
Patricia gently pulled on Dustin's hand and softly said, "Dustin, forget it!"
She felt the same frustration and anger, but there was nothing they could do.
They had no power to go against the family.
What else could they do but swallow their pride?
"Fine, fine..." Dustin sneered. "You want me to give up the project? Fine, I'll give it
up.
"But when things go wrong later, don't come to us."
"Don't worry about it. You think too highly of yourself," Zack said dismissively. “The Swansong Group wants to work with us because of our Mayhill property. I could send anyone from the Yeager family to sign the contract. You don't matter.
"You think you're really worthy of working with the Swansong Group? They just see potential in our property."
Dustin sneered and stayed silent.
The Yeager family thought too highly of themselves. Did they really believe the Swansong Group, a big company in Grayvale, cared about them?
The Yeager family was just a small family. They were not worth the attention.
They wanted to betray him and take the credit?
Fine, he would let them have it!
But things would not turn out the way they expected.
What do you think?
