Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver Novel Full Episode novel Chapter 1052

The next morning.

Jude, Rowan, and the others sat waiting in the living room quietly.

The other members of the Cook family came in slowly, sitting down in the living room one by one.

At around eleven o'clock, over twenty people arrived. All of these people held important positions in Cook Corp.

They all stole glances at Jude and the others, their brows furrowed tightly.

Everyone had heard that the clan's hidden realm had opened up last night, and who had entered it.

Despite the fact that they had made it out safely, the Cook family had lost a dozen core family members.

Everyone knew as well that Jude and the others had not inherited anything.

They were all confused, waiting for an explanation.

Upon seeing that everyone was there, Jude got to his feet and looked around him. "I've called all of you here today to announce something of extreme importance to the Cook family."

The crowd perked up at the words at once.

Had they really been able to gain the ancestor's inheritance from the hidden realm?

That would mean that the Cook family would become a cultivator household as well, which was wonderful news for sure.

Jude looked around at the eager expressions on everyone's faces. "After discussing it with Second, Third, and Fourth Uncle yesterday, we've agreed to hire Master Wilbur Penn as the family envoy. We'll have Master Penn come out in a little to meet everyone, so we can all show our respects. Is everyone clear?"

The crowd went abuzz after hearing those words.

The crowd, however, broke out into discussion. It was clear that they did not entirely believe Jude's words.

Jude then said coldly, "I've made the decision as the clan leader and the three elders have agreed to it as well. There's no need for further hubbub on this. I'll have Master Penn come out, and all of you can pay your respects."

"Sir, we pay the three Cookville Jays thirty million dollars every year. With this new envoy, we'd like to know how much we'd be paying him now," the same person from earlier asked.

Jude glanced at him. "Two hundred million dollars. Yearly."

"That means we'll be paying out two hundred and thirty million dollars every year. Our family might be wealthy, but surely this figure is too much, don't you think?"

Jude's expression turned cold. "Do you know how dangerous the cultivator circle is? It's only because we haven't got any powerful elites in our clan that we have no choice but to keep our heads low and prevent ourselves from expanding too much. Now that we've gotten the chance, there's no way we're missing it. Either way, our minds have been made. Anyone with anything to say about it can very well leave the clan."

The crowd lowered their heads quietly at the words, but it was clear judging from the expressions on their expressions alone that they felt wronged.
