Chapter 92
Gordon glanced at the caller ID and his expression changed. He hesitated for a moment before picking up the call.
“Grandpa,” Gordon greeted Earl respectfully.
“What’s the situation with the company now? What happened?” Earl’s dignified voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Let me handle this. I will solve it as soon as possible,” Gordon replied in a low voice.
He did not mention anything about Sophia.
Earl had finally agreed to their marriage. If he found out that Sophia was the reason behind all these things happening, he might change his mind immediately.
“Solve it as soon as possible? How do you plan to do that?” Earl was not someone who was easy to fool. He asked directly.
Gordon could not help but look a little tired.
After all, he had been in a tense state for almost the entire day.
He wanted to know what kind of power was behind Marina.
How was she able to beat him into such a sorry state?
“Grandpa, give me a little more time. I’ll definitely be able to solve it.” Gordon raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows.
“Until now, you’re still refusing to tell me the truth. Do you really think I’m old and senile?”
“I warned you not to provoke Marina. Why won’t you listen?” Earl’s tone was cold.
“Grandpa… How did you know about this?” Gordon couldn’t help but look surprised when he heard Earl’s words.
“How do I know? I naturally have my ways. Have you forgotten what you promised me previously? Do you know that our Campbell family is almost finished? Break up with Sophia immediately and never contact her again!” Earl enunciated each word clearly.
“Grandpa, this has nothing to do with Sophia…” Gordon tried to explain but Earl interrupted him.
“Nothing to do with her? Since when did you learn to lie to me? Gordon, don’t forget your identity. You’re not only responsible for yourself but also the entire Campbell family!”
“Grandpa, the company’s situation has stabilized for the time being. Give me a little more time, I will definitely be able to handle it!” Gordon’s tone was a little anxious.
“You won’t be able to handle it no matter how much time I give you. Do you think the company is temporarily stable because of you?” Earl’s tone was furious.
“Grandpa, what do you mean by that?” Gordon could not help but feel puzzled.
“What I mean is, hurry up and apologize to Miss Bailey. Beg her to stop and let us off!” Earl said sternly.
The expression on Gordon’s face was almost uncontrollable.
“Grandpa, are you telling me that the company is currently stabilized because you went to look for… Marina?” Gordon asked with difficulty.
“What else can I do? Do you want me to watch helplessly as the Campbell family gets destroyed in your hands?” Although Earl had already retired, the Campbell family’s situation was still under his control.

As soon as there was an abnormality in the company, Earl received the news.
not
The reason why he did respond immediately was that he had yet to figure out the reason.
Furthermore, he wanted to see if Gordon could resolve this crisis.
However, the situation gradually became worse. It was going out of control
so Earl had no choice but to contact Simon.
After all, he had promised to guarantee the Campbell family’s safety for ten years.
However, Simon did tell him that they could provoke anyone, but absolutely not Marina.
This time, he would give them a chance to beg for Marina’s forgiveness.
As for whether they could salvage the situation, it was entirely up to them.
When Gordon heard Earl’s words, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He went limp and collapsed onto the chair behind him in an instant.
He thought that he was able to stabilize the situation due to his hard work.
It turned out that this was just a chance given to him by Marina.
Gordon lowered his head and revealed a mocking smile.
Before this, he was still smug and felt that he still had a chance. That was why he wanted to give it a try.
From the looks of it, he had already lost everything.
“Grandpa, I promised Sophia that I will marry her. I can’t go back on my word…” Gordon stared at the ceiling above his head and muttered.
“Do you want the entire Campbell family to die with her?” Earl questioned sternly.
Th
Gordon moved her lips as if he wanted to say something, but he did not know where to start.
He couldn’t seem to give up on either side..
However, he was unable to protect both sides.
“Grandpa, Marina is targeting the Campbell family because of me and Sophia. Please remove me from the Campbell family.” Gordon paused for a while and said in a choked voice.
“You bastard! You’re betraying the Campbell family for a woman? You…” There was suddenly silence on the other end of the phone.
“Mr. Campbell!”
“Quick, call 911!”
A panicked voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Grandpa? Grandpa, what’s wrong?” Cordon’s tone instantly became anxious.
Then, he got up and rushed out of the office.
In the hospital.
After emergency treatment, Earl was finally out of danger,

“Mr. Campbell is already extremely weak. It’s best not to make him feel agitated any further. He has to rest and recuperate. If this happens again, we might not be able to save him next time,” the doctor said to the members of the Campbell family with a serious expression.
When Jacob heard this, he turned around and slapped Gordon hard across the face.
“You unfilial son, look at how angry you made your grandfather. If anything happens to your grandfather, I’ll skin you alive!”
Gordon tilted his head to the side, but this time, he had no intention of refuting.
Earl was indeed in this state because of him.
“Mr. Campbell is awake. He wants to Mr. Gordon.” Earl’s personal butler suddenly walked out of the ward.
“Grandpa is awake?” When Gordon heard this, he quickly looked over.
“Mr. Gordon, please follow me in.” The butler moved aside slightly.
Gordon’s eyes were filled with guilt.
On the hospital bed, Earl looked weak, as if he would dissipate at any moment.
“Grandpa…” Gordon choked on his words and could not continue.
Earl glanced at the butler, who hurriedly went forward to take off the ventilator on Earl’s face.
“Come here.” Earl’s voice was extremely weak.
Gordon quickly walked over.
*****
Earl looked at Gordon from head to toe. There was a mixture of affection and guilt in his eyes, but more than that, there was determination.
“Gordon, I don’t want to force you, but…there are some things that I really should tell you…”
