Chapter: 6170

David Roschilde reacted the fastest, just a second ago he was still surrounded by Steve, occupying the closest and best position next to him. The next second, he had already rushed forward to Mr. Howard's side.

"Father!" David exclaimed, rushing up to Mr. Howard and immediately supporting his arm with his own, his voice tight with tension. "How did you walk here on your own? Is everything okay with your body?"

The younger sons who were still surrounding Steve suddenly snapped back to reality, each one simultaneously cursing David's quick reaction, which was faster than theirs. They also left Steve behind and rushed up to Mr. Howard's side.

Royce on the side witnessed what was a textbook example of a wall-to-wall situation.

These people had just surrounded their father in front, making it impossible for them to squeeze through as sons.

However, now that they have all squeezed up to grandfather's side, their father stands alone over there, with a hint of loneliness.

Howard saw these sons, all rushing up to him with excited faces, and his heart felt a surge of joy.

Just moments ago at the medical center, he was already moved by Steve's filial piety, and now seeing other sons showing such concern for him, he couldn't help but feel some pride and satisfaction as a father, watching each son compete in filial devotion to him.

So, he wore a benevolent smile on his face, using a loud and forceful voice to announce to everyone: "I have good news to tell you all - my body has completely recovered from its illness."

Upon hearing this, these sons-in-law may not know why the stroke could recover so quickly, but their hearts were all racing with excitement.

David couldn't help but ask: "Father, are you summoning us here to give us a surprise?"

Howard smiled slightly and said: "Well, sort of. This time I used some extraordinary methods to recover in such a short span."

As he spoke, Howard's expression gradually became stern, warning loudly: "So, you must remember not to let anyone leak the news about my stroke. If I find out that someone has spilled the beans, regardless of who it is, I will expel them from the Rosshilde family!"

As soon as everyone finished listening, their hearts suddenly skipped a beat.

To the Rosshilde family, being expelled from the family was the highest and most severe punishment. The old man had also let out some harsh words before, but this kind of indiscriminate and high-level warning was unprecedented.

Except for Steve, all others realized that the old man didn't want to let outsiders know about his stroke, probably because he wanted to turn this incident into a small, unknown episode that would make it seem like nothing had happened within the family.

Since he didn't want anyone to see any commotion, it proved that the old man was definitely still determined to continue serving as the family patriarch.

Therefore, everyone was amazed and nodded repeatedly, swearing not to reveal this matter, otherwise they would accept any punishment.

Howard finally smiled satisfactorily and then came to the large conference table, where others quickly took their seats on either side of him.

Howard gestured for everyone to sit down, and people cautiously moved over to take their seats.

Although there were dozens of people present, inside the meeting room, except for the sound of clothing rustling, it was almost silent. Each person had their mouth shut tight, not daring to make any noise, nor daring to directly pull back a chair. Instead, they would carefully move it aside and let out the space they needed before slowly placing it back on the carpet.

The entire process did not produce even a faint sound from the chairs.

This was a regulation that Howard had established in the family long ago, and everyone still meticulously respected it to this day.

As I saw everyone's serious and cautious expressions, Howard felt extremely comfortable and satisfied inside. This was the charm that came with being the family patriarch to him.

Everyone sat down carefully, keeping their backs straight without daring to show any signs of fatigue. Howard said with satisfaction: "The main purpose of calling all of you together today is to announce something." JrNovels.com
