Chapter 568 The Hostess Of The An Family (Part Two)

Carla only gave birth to a girl. That means she isn't qualified to be the hostess of the family Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

whatsoever! Why should my son have to apologize to her daughter?"

Watching as this woman in front of him blurted out those words, Rhys couldn't help but shake his head.

Disappointment filled his eyes.

"Eunice, I don't think that you even realize that Carla is still the hostess of the An family. As for us, we

aren't even qualified to be in charge of the family. Do you seriously think that it would be a good idea to

keep spoiling Eric like this?" he asked.

Turning to the other side, Eunice sneered, "I think it's still much too early to be saying that. Nothing is

set in stone yet.

According to the family tradition, family property should be passed down to the male heirs rather than

the female heirs. How could Carla, who only has a daughter, become fit to stand as the hostess of the

An family? And let's say that I accept it, will father agree to it?"

If Terence was Edmund's only child, then there was a possibility for his daughter to be the one to inherit

the family's properties.

However, he isn't the only child!

At this moment, Eric was regarded as the male heir in the family.

That just meant that there was no telling who would end up being in charge of the family in the future.

"Eunice, stop being too optimistic. Have you already forgotten that it was said that Carla couldn't give

birth to kids? But now what we have seen with our very eyes? She already has a daughter! How can

you be so certain that she won't give birth to other kids?"

Rhys knitted his eyebrows as he reminded her of that fact. From the very start, he never had an

intention to compete for the inheritance with Terence.

It was just Eunice who had been so hungry for power and wealth. She had the opportunity to take

charge of the family for 4 years because of Carla's absence, so she was under the assumption that she

still had the right to manage everything else in the family.

"I guess we'll just have to wait and see whether she can give birth to other kids or not. But as for now,

I'm still the hostess of the family," Eunice resolutely said as she glance at Rhys. "Would you take a look

at yourself? I couldn't possibly thank heaven and earth enough if you were even half as ambitious as

your elder brother!

You're qualified to inherit the property, but you've never shown a bit of interest in it. You and Terence

are both sons of the An family, why can he be the only heir to inherit everything but you can't?

If you're the one in charge of the family, I won't let myself become a doormat."

Realizing that the topic had already shifted to the family's properties, Rhys lost interest in arguing with

her any longer.

"I've already told you a number of times that grandpa made everything very clear when he allowed

father to bring me and Marcus into the family. We are free to enjoy the privileges of being part of the An

family, but we don't have the right of inheritance.

So, would you please drop this matter once and for all?"

Rhys threw up his hands and flew off the handle.

His mother had never married Edmund, meaning to say, she was merely one of his mistresses.

Grandpa simply had mercy on them, so he agreed to at least let them into the An family and enjoy

being the second master.

All that Rhys had ever wanted was to be able to live a peaceful life as the second master of the An

family. As for everything else, he sincerely wasn't interested in it at all.

Apart from that, Terence was his younger brother, so he was sure that he wouldn't mistreat him when

he ended up succeeding their father in the future.

At the thought of that, he didn't think it would be necessary to start a life-and-death fight, just like

Marcus had done in the past.

"Suit yourself then. You don't want me to bring this up. That's because handling the family business has

never been your ambition and what you're interested in is your mistress outside. Isn't that right?"

Whenever she saw him acting this way, Eunice would blow a fuse. The Mu family would surely have his

back and support him for as long as he was determined to do something.

Unfortunately for them, he just couldn't care less about those things at all.

"Never mind, I'm tired of this nonsense. There's just no way to get through that thick head of yours. I'll

just go sleep in the living room," Rhys was much too tired to even be arguing with her at this point, so

he headed toward the living room.

When she saw him walking away, Eunice felt a bit miserable and frantically grabbed his arm all of a

sudden. "Rhys, stop! Could you please just promise me that you're gonna stop seeing that other

woman?

I swear I'm gonna change for as long as you can promise me that you'll end everything that has to do

with her. That way, we can still have a happy life."

It had been about 4 or 5 years since they tied the knot. They had been so happy being in each other's

arms for the first year, but after that, they had constantly been at each other's throats.

It came to the point where they didn't even know when things started going south and when they

stopped being affectionate toward each other.

Truth be told, Eunice couldn't even remember the last time they made love to each other.

"Eunice, it's already late. You should just go to bed... I also want to get some sleep."

Completely ignoring her pleading, Rhys shook off her hand and headed straight toward the living

room.
