章節 74: A father's agony [2]

That night, after Athan talked to Knox, he was called by his father in his room. They discussed their plans on how to handle the matter once the news spread. The quiet life in Knox would be overturned once the media hears the truth.

"I suggest you hire a bodyguard for him, Dad," Athan commented after his father implied that he'd officially announced Knox as his fifth successor. "And, this matter, I'm elated but was shocked as well. Is Mom aware of this?"

Chairman Nathaniel who sat straight on his bed turned his head from the laptop on his lap to his son sitting on a chair next to the bed. His visage looked peaceful, as though he had finally been freed from a long, existing knot in his heart. "Your mother isn't aware yet. I plan to tell him once I get back. Until then, I asked Steve to handle and stop all the rumors from leaking out."
