Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

Chapter 219

Whitney didn't deny it and laughed. "Well, it turns out my son n't that clueless after all"

Preston's voice grew even colder. I won't help you, and I certainly won't support wrongdoing. I'm not going after Cynthia, and I'm not going to help you get that five percent company share" "So you're willing to watch the woman you love smile brightly in someone else's arms, and it doesn't bother you? Preston, aren't you jealous? Whitney seemed to strike Preston's weak spot. "You've always looked up to your Uncle as a role model since you were young, but you're not as good as him in any way. Your academic scores arent as high, your business sense isn't as sharp, and you can't take anything from him, not even the woman you love. "Why? Because you lack the ability, because you don't compete or fight for anything!"

"You really don't seem like my child. So weak, so timid. You'll spend your whole life staring at your uncle's back, never able to catch up." Whitney constantly struck Preston where it hurt.

She knew Preston looked up to Jonathan as an idol. On the surface, he admired him, but deep down he was always trying to compete. Jonathan was a genius. Preston was talented in his own right, but no matter how hard he tried, he could never reach the same level Whitney understood that such feelings were a double-edged sword. With just a little nudge, jealousy could turn

into

Preston clenched his fingers. "Mom, you're right, I'll never catch up to Uncle, so I don't plan on competing with him anymore.

Whitney's smile froze. "What did you say?"

"There's one thing you're wrong about. I see Uncle as an idol, but I've never been jealous of him. On the contrary, I respect, admire, and love him.

"He and Cynthia are truly in love, and I would never come between them, Preston smirked coldly at her, "So don't waste your efforts. Your attempts to cause trouble won't work on me."

"Preston, you're stubborn as a mule!" Whitney's patience was clearly running out.

She said. "It's fine if you don't help me get that five percent of Cynthia's shares. I have my ways.

Not only do I want Cynthia's five percent, but I'll also make your Uncle give up all his shares. I won't let them off. Just watch how I tear them apart, make them hate each other and ruin their relationship" Preston was worried. "You're really crazy"

Whitney made no attempt to hide her intentions. "Yes, that's right. I'm your mother, Preston's mother. I'm crazy, and 1 want to destroy them."

"What will it take for you to release my uncle and let Cynthia go asked Preston.

Whitney sa

sat on the sofa, sipping her tea casually. "Letting them go is not out of the question, but you have to agree to two conditions."

Preston's face was tense. After a long pause, he clenched his jaw and forced out. "Go ahead, tell me

"First, I will decide on your marriage. Since you've chosen to give up on Cynthia, you must also give up the right to freely fall for any other girl replied Whitney. 14:23 Tue, Nov 12 uu.

Preston's heart had already hecome numb to emotions. He knew that if it wasn't Cynthia, he probably wouldn't care about anyone else. He thought, 'Since it's not her, it doesn't matter who it is. As long as my future partner gets what she wants from me, I don't care anymore? Preston spoke up, "Okay, I agree. What's the second condition?"

Whitney said, "The second condition is, starting tomorrow, you need to go to the company. You can choose any position you prefer there, as long as you go."

Preston originally wasn't interested in the company. Whether it was the Bennett or the Sullivan family, he never intended to get involved with the family business. But now, he no longer had the freedom to make his own life choices.

Preston's gaze was serious. I can agree to both conditions, but you must promise me not to harm Uncle, Cynthia, or Nina, and to stop your wrongdoings and playing with people's lives"

Whitney was quite pleased and walked up to Preston. She touched his face lightly. "My son has really grown up and can even boss me around now

Preston quickly turned his face away. "Can you promise me that

"I promise you, as long as you listen to me, I guarantee that not a single hair on their heads will be harmed," Whitney said, then left Preston's room.

As she closed the door, a small smile appeared on her lips. Her true intention was to make sure Preston went to company. This was just her first move in her plan.

She thought, This kid is way too naive. He can't tell who is a friend and who is a foe. Does he really think that once Jonathan takes control, everything will be easy for him? That Jonathan will be kind to him?

Humans are naturally bad, and Jonathan is especially a born deyil. Preston is too kind. I can never let Jonathan have a chance to hurt him.

I want him to see the true essence of the world. I need him to become strong and mature. The quickest way is to make him realize the ugly and dark side of humanity.

'One day, he'll understand. The person he respects the most and looks up to as an idol is actually the worst and most corrupt person in the world. Everything now is just a disguise"

Jonathan's car stopped at a parking lot. Cynthia looked at the brightly lit sign. "Lotus Haven? What's this place?"

"Aren't you hungry? The braised short ribs here are delicious," replied Jonathan.

Hearing about the tasty braised short ribs, Cynthia didn't think my further. As soon as she stepped inside, a waiter came to greet her. "Mr. Jonathan, it's been a while since you last visited." Jonathan just gave a slight nod.

Cynthia glanced around, taking in her surroundings. She realize it was actually an upscale club.

Cynthia couldn't help but ask, "Do you come here often?

Jonathan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, this is a perfectly lega dining and entertainment spot. I just come here for a meal and to watch a movie, nothing like you're imagining Cynthia shrugged it off casually, saying, "I wasn't suggesting anything else, no need to defend yourself"

Soon, they were shown to a private rooms by a waiter. The room had elegant decor, complete with

a wall lined with shelves.

of fine wines. In the center was a round table with a rotating feature, already covered in a hundred delicious dishes.

Cynthia was surprised. "Isn't it a bit wasteful for just the two of us to have so many dishes?"

"It's your first visit here, so of course I want you to try all the good food. The owner is a friend of mine, and there are many new dishes for you to taste," replied Jonathan.

The dishes were a feast for the senses, making Cynthia's mouth water. They sat down and started their lunch. Jonathan even picked a bottle from the wine rack.

Cynthia took a sip and said, "A 78 Montclaire, excellent wine."

Jonathan laughed. "You have quite the discerning taste. Did your amazing mentor teach you that?"

Cynthia picked up the wine bottle next to her. "Isn't it written right there in big letters? I'm not blind, you know,"

Jonathan was speechless.

Cynthia finally got to try the braised short ribs that Jonathan had raved about. The taste was indeed delightful, but she still felt it was just a bit lacking compared to the ones Jonathan had personally cooked for her before. She really craved Jonathan's homemade braised short ribs.

But she was too shy to ask the ever-busy Mr. Bennett to cook just for her. She had to think of a way. Maybe she'd have to use her charm.

Cynthia had already made up her mind. Once they were back in Roncrity, she would definitely have him make some braised short ribs.

In no time, Jonathan received a phone call.

After hanging up, Jonathan looked a bit serious.

Cynthia asked, "Who was the call from?"
