<h4>Chapter 162: Chapter 162: You Don’t Have to Remind Me Again and Again</h4>
The assistant paused for a few seconds, as if he hadn’t noticed the gradually darkening expression on Henry’s face, and said seriously, "Young Master should now focus all his thoughts on tomorrow’s bidding meeting. The sess of this is very important to the Dales Family."
"The Saxon Family is the most powerfulpetitor to the Dales Family. In terms of financial strength, we can never surpass the Saxon Family. What the Young Master needs to do is quickly think of other ways. Fortunately, this time Roy Saxon has arranged for Matthew Saxon toe over, so the Dales Family does still have some chance of winning."
If Roy had sent his smart and capable eldest son, Maxwell Saxon, it would have been more troublesome.
Even though this assistant addressed Henry Dales respectfully as Young Master, he didn’t hold the usual respectful and cautious attitude of a subordinate.
On the contrary, the assistant’s manner and words just now were like an elder assigning tasks to a younger person.
This was clearly overstepping the bounds.
Yet, Henry’s attitude was also strange.
Earlier, his face had looked a bit sullen, but once the assistant finished speaking, he returned to normal.
He was silent for a long time, and then, with a voice hoarse from pain, spoke quietly in the dark of night, "Uncle Smith, I have my own considerations, you needn’t worry."
"When I first came to the Dales Family, the Young Master was only eight."
Jack Smith, lost in his thoughts, had a hint of sadness in his otherwise indifferent eyes.
He sighed long, "I watched as the Young Master grew up bit by bit, bing more and more sensible, and increasingly smart."
"Eventually, everyone knew the young master of the Dales Family was exceptional and outstanding, and the master was proud of him."
"Because of internal management issues, the Dales Family almost faced bankruptcy. Fortunately, the Young Master got engaged to the Miss of the Wood Family in time, using the marriage alliance to stabilize the declining stocks and securingrge funds for the Dales n, thus avoiding this financial crisis."
"If you hadn’t agreed to the marriage with the Wood n, the Dales Family couldn’t have survived. The Young Master is the sole heir of the Dales n; under any circumstances, he should prioritize the n, and this is something he’s well aware of and has done excellently."
Saying this, Jack Smith lifted his head and looked deeply at Henry Dales with a meaningful expression, "The Young Master is meant for great things and shouldn’t be affected by some trivial people and matters."
"Uncle Smith, you don’t need to say more." Henry closed his eyes briefly and then spoke with a voice hoarse yetden with worldly weariness, "I know clearly what needs to be done."
He curled his lips into a smile, but the smile was bitter, "You don’t need to remind me time and again."
Jack Smith nodded, saying in an emotionless voice, "Alright, then I’m relieved."
Though he said this, Jack Smith still turned his head towards the direction Matthew had left.
His brows furrowed unconsciously, his eyes flickered, and his gaze suddenly turned two shades colder.
A woman who can make the Young Master care so much might just be an obstacle in his life.
After spending decades with the Dales Family, he knows all too well what kind of person the Young Master is.
When the Young Master isn’t emotionally involved, it’s nothing, but once he is, and someone is in his heart, it might be for a lifetime.
Luckily, the Young Master is here only for work this time; once it’s over, he’ll return to Z Country immediately.
In the future, he probably won’t have any more chances to meet that Miss Yates.
After a few years of not meeting, this not-so-deep rtionship will gradually fade away.
