Shen Qi saw Bessie and Evans' reactions and knew what they were thinking. He asked, "Bessie, think about your father's current situation. From the moment he held the press conference, his position as patriarch was doomed to be lost. Do you think he would like to see you inherit the position of patriarch, or would he like to see someone else take it away from him?"
When Bessie heard this explanation, his eyes suddenly widened, as if he suddenly saw the hope of winning the position of head of the family!
If his father still had some sense, he would definitely hope that he could take over as the head of the family instead of letting someone else take over!
Evans reacted faster and said, "So, what we need to do now is to find a way to convince the Patriarch to support Mr. Bessie? However, I think this will be difficult. Although the Patriarch's current situation is not good, he has been the Patriarch for more than ten years after all. He is deeply rooted in the Simon family. I'm afraid he won't give up so easily."
Shen Qi shook his head. "How can we know if this thing will work if we don't try it? Bessie, you need to make a decision quickly. Do you want to do this?"
Bessie was also a little conflicted. According to Shen Qi, his next step would be to bring Servis with him and use a tougher approach to force his father to recognize the current situation and decide to help him inherit the position of head of the family.
If this matter gets out, it will have a very bad impact on his reputation, especially if his father still insists on it and refuses to let it go easily. He will definitely be targeted by his father and even be eliminated early.
Never doubt whether a father and son will go to this point. In fact, in foreign countries, many family inheritances are stained with blood and sin. When it comes to fighting for interests, even fathers, sons and brothers can do the same.
Just look at the changes of dynasties to see how tempting power and interests are to people.
Seeing that Bessie was still hesitant, Evans hurriedly said, "Mr. Bessie, you can't hesitate any longer. While the Patriarch still has some foundation in the family, quickly convince him to side with you. That way, you can more smoothly inherit the position of Patriarch. If you wait until others in the family start to take action, the Patriarch's prestige and power will inevitably shrink significantly. By then, even if you have the Patriarch's support, it will not be so easy to succeed him."
"In order to save the Simmon family from suffering some damage, you must step forward as soon as possible. Only you can become the new head of the family at the lowest cost!"
Bessie couldn't help but nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Shen Qi, I'm willing to listen to you. What should I do next?"
Shen Qi said, "You don't have to do anything. Just take Servis to see your father. I will help your father make the decision."
Bessie nodded and hurriedly took Evans and Servis straight to the master's study.
The head of the Simon family is now in a state of panic. He knows that holding a press conference will inevitably have a serious impact on his status, but he really did not expect that the ambitious people within the family would take action so quickly.
Couldn't they even wait a few days?
Couldn't they put themselves in his shoes?
Under the circumstances at that time, who would dare to refuse Shen Qi's proposal?
He did this to preserve the Simon family, otherwise no one would know whether Shen Qi would kill the Simon family.
When that time really comes, the losses suffered by the Simon family will inevitably be even more severe.
He was clearly the one who endured humiliation and paid a huge price for the future of the Simon family. Why didn't these people understand him?
Until now, the head of the Simon family still does not think that he has done anything wrong and is making excuses for his weakness and compromise.
Just then, Bessie knocked on the door.
"Father, are you in there?"
When the head of the Smith family heard that it was Bessie's voice, his face looked better. He remembered that when he was facing the pressure from Shen Qi, only Bessie stood up to speak for him and even did not hesitate to confront Shen Qi head-on. It was a pity that Bessie's ability was still a little lacking and she was of no help.
But it was enough that Bessie had this thought.
"I'm here, come in."
Bessie pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Evans and Servais. This action surprised the head of the Smith family a little, because Evans and Servais had different identities from Bessie, so it was a bit inappropriate for them to come in directly.
But soon he would not dwell on this little thing anymore, because Bessie didn't waste time talking to him and directly stated her purpose.
"Father, you've seen the current situation in our family. I think we should take some action."
The head of the Simon family nodded, feeling that his own son was more reliable and much better than those ambitious people in the family.
When his prestige in the family was high enough, those ambitious people did not dare to show themselves and tried their best to please him. Unexpectedly, as soon as something happened on his side, these ambitious people jumped out, and Bessie, who usually behaved mediocrely, stood on his side at this time. How could he not be moved?
"Yes, that's what I meant. However, the current situation is indeed not very optimistic. It will take some effort to suppress the opposition within the family. However, you performed very well this time, and everyone saw it. As long as you publicly express your willingness to support me, it should be able to suppress some of the opposition. You are here for this purpose, right?"
Bessie said, "I did come here to suppress the opposing voices within the family, but I don't intend to do what you said."
The smile on the face of the head of the Simon family froze for a moment, but he quickly reacted.
"Really? You don't have to follow my plan. If you have any ideas, just tell me. As long as you can suppress the dissenting voices within the family, it will be fine."
