Mark asked his secretary to contact a private place that could provide meetings. Even if he spent more money, he must find a suitable place. If the Newspaper Alliance conference could not be held, what happened today would become a disgrace to the George family and aggravate the external forces'' peeping at the family.


    When he returned to the manor in the evening, he accidentally saw Arthur''s car in the parking lot, a gold-plated car he bought more than two years ago. This car was jointly named "house Golden Dragon" by the manufacturer and Arthur. It was also such a car in the whole imperial capital. He used 320000 to order it from the house automobile company. The outside is gold alloy with a purity of about 70%. When the sun is good, driving on the road can render the buildings on both sides of the whole street golden. Only Arthur can drive such an exaggerated and high-profile car, and only he dares to drive it.


    Later, Mr. John said something to him in a very strong tone. He threw the car into the garage and never took it out to drive again.


    Unexpectedly, mark saw the car here today. He frowned when he got out of the car. Now is the time when the George family is facing a great difficulty. In the past, they will continue to rule the whole newspaper industry. If they move forward, decades of efforts will become running water and moisten the "dry" earth. At this critical moment, we need to keep a low profile, not a high profile. It happens that Arthur drives such a car to swagger around the city, which will make more people hate the George family.


    This is a "reserved" city. There are too many big people living here. They don''t dare to make a high profile. A guy who doesn''t know the importance is so arrogant, which will bring them a very bad impact.


    Mark looked back and walked into the building of the manor. The housekeeper smiled stiffly and lowered his head. Mark handed him his coat. "Where''s Arthur? Let him see me."


    "He''s in the master''s bedroom..." the feet in the housekeeper''s eyes suddenly stopped, and he hurriedly stopped his steps and followed mark closely behind him.


    Mark glanced at him sideways with a strange expression, "you said he was in his father''s room? What did he do there?". With the relationship between Arthur and Mr. John, he could never kindly visit Mr. John and hope he could get better. On the contrary, he would curse Mr. John to return to the embrace of God. Suddenly it seemed that something had come to mind. Mark ran towards the stairs with a gloomy face.


    He was wondering if Arthur would be doing anything.


    Now Mr. John''s life depends on those sophisticated medical devices. Once one of the machines goes wrong, there is no doubt that Mr. John is likely to become a "past tense".


    That bastard, maybe he can really do such a thing!


    When he fiercely pushed open the open door of Mr. John''s bedroom, he couldn''t believe his eyes. Arthur sat by the bed, holding Mr. John''s hand, and let the back of his old hand close to his cheek. There was an irreducible sadness in his eyes, completely like another person.


    When did this bastard have such a human side because he finally woke up?


    Mark went to the medical devices and roughly checked the operation of these devices to ensure that no red light was on. He was relieved and softened his tone subconsciously. "You didn''t say hello to me." he touched Mr. John''s forehead. It was very warm.


    Arthur''s face showed a cynical expression and retorted, "this is my father''s manor, not your manor. I don''t need to say hello to you. Do you think you are qualified?", Arthur''s face showed a thick mockery, "my father is not dead, you''re not the owner!"


    To be honest, Arthur was shocked to say such words. He never thought he would say such words one day. It was such words that made mark think Arthur was sober and knew the importance of Mr. John to the whole family. Instead of laughing angrily, he shook his head and turned away. Now he knows that he cares for his father. What did he do before?


    When mark left, Arthur looked at Mr. John''s quiet and kind face with a very complicated expression. He suddenly found that he hadn''t seen the man so carefully for a long time. In his impression, the man was still more than 30 years ago. There was a momentum of not being angry and powerful, which made him feel afraid all the time.


    He thought of many things. He thought of his first cycling, swimming and mountaineering when he was a child. He never worries about his back, just keep moving forward, because he knows that behind him, there is a person silently protecting himself.


    Since when have their feelings become strange and like enemies?


    Arthur gently stroked the large age spots on Mr. John''s face. It used to be so smooth. Now there are not only wrinkles, but also these terrible spots. He wanted to smooth those wrinkles, but he couldn''t, because he was not almighty God.


    When he was about 14 or 15 years old, the George family looked down on the whole newspaper industry like the noon sun. Mr. John wanted to actively expand his family industry and planned to enter the printing industry, thus neglecting his discipline. In the family, those uncles and aunts began to care about him very much, taught him how to spend money, how to enjoy, how to use his position to bring everything he wanted, and successfully made him a loser.


    Then what he faced was no longer the caring father''s love, but constant criticism, scolding and punishment. He''s fed up with Mr. John''s control over his life. He''s fed up with the need to study hard every day. He''s fed up with getting up at five in the morning and going to the office at seven.


    The crack between them gradually became a bottomless abyss that could not be crossed.


    Arthur''s mood suddenly got out of control. He fell on Mr. John and sobbed. Tears soaked the sheets.


    He knows he has done many wrong things, but is it time to go back on his word now?


    It''s too late!


    Mark, who stood outside the door and secretly observed Arthur through the crack of the door, breathed a sigh of relief and left lightly. Although Arthur regretted a little late, it was much better than not understanding.


    "I''m sorry, father." at the moment mark turned around, the tearful Arthur raised his head, climbed the transparent pipe around him with his palm and held it tightly. He looked at Mr. John''s calm as if he were asleep and waited beside him.


    Two minutes later, he released his hand, dried his tears, kissed Mr. John on the forehead and left the room.


    At the moment Arthur gently closed the door, Mr. John, who was supposed to be dead in bed, suddenly opened his eyes. He took off the respirator mask and his face was so gloomy that he could drip water.


    There was nothing in his eyes except panic. Up to now, he couldn''t believe that his youngest son wanted to kill him!


    And this bastard really did!


    Mr. John, who never thought he was a loser in life, suddenly had an unspeakable pain wandering in his chest. He lost. Lost to life, lost to himself, but soon his expression became firm. Now is not the time for him to feel about life. The family is facing a storm. First stabilize the situation, and then he has time to teach his son how to respect his father.


    In fact, Mr. John just knew that he was in a coma after the feature agency was burned, but he soon woke up. He asked the doctor not to tell anyone. On the one hand, he wanted to test the performance of mark and Arthur after "losing" his father. On the other hand, he also wanted to lead out some potential enemies through his coma.


    Now it seems that the plan is very successful, but the success is a little too much.


    But now it''s not the time for him to wake up. He still needs to wait. When Mark holds the Newspaper Alliance conference, his presence at the meeting is more meaningful than his sitting up from bed.


    If you want to give the enemy the heaviest blow with your fist, you first need to take your fist back!


    The next morning, mark asked people to invite newspaper presidents from all over the country to Zhuang Yuan. Since there was no one willing to undertake the conference, it was held in the open world. Those family friends chose to wait and see at this critical moment, which made mark very cold and realized the ruthlessness of capital.


    In this world, what people communicate is not feelings, but money, contacts and power, but no feelings.


    When you are popular, people will flatter and say nice words. I hope you can make a fortune with them.


    When you are down, these people will prepare knives and forks, stand aside and watch coldly, waiting for the moment when you are carried to the table and become food.


    Because of the particularity of choosing the place, we don''t need to worry about anything in the venue this time. Everyone sat down around long tables. More than 260 people attended the meeting. Some people didn''t come, and some people have taken a clear stand against the George family.


    Manors like the George family are always surrounded by green shade. Even in autumn, there are dense vegetation around to protect the privacy of the owners in the manor. Many people have been arranged outside the manor. No matter who it is, don''t try to break in and disturb Mark''s meeting this time.


    When Mark appeared at the meeting, Mr. John was wearing low-key and introverted clothes with the help of the housekeeper. He raised his chin in front of the mirror, and the sapphire neckline was shining with charm. It is said that people who like to wear sapphire jewelry are smarter. Mr. John thinks this rumor is correct. He likes sapphire.


    He held out his hand, and the housekeeper put a delicate staff of civilization in his hand.


    He did deceive everyone, but it was not without cost.


    His legs are not so convenient.
