Invincible Heir

The Perry family courtyard.

Tracy had only just come home, and before she got round to put her slippers on, Sherry was in her face fuming as she asked, “That trash - he went to the office today?”

“Mom, please, I’m dead tired. Can you just stop bothering me?” Tracy said, thoroughly worn out.

With Baron taking on her impossible task, her brow was already blistering with worry. At this point, she really didn’t need more on her plate.

“This is no time to be skulking about!”

Sherry’s bearing was one of complete distress. “I heard it all. Your Granddad offered you a choice in the Perry Clan weekly regular meeting - marry Joker, or somehow find a way to gain collaboration with the Brone Group, or else we’d all be banished. And that piece of trash actually agreed in your place. He’s brainless garbage. It doesn’t mean you have to be! Why aren’t you marrying Joker?”

Tracy had run herself to the ground working connections all day long for her task, but it turned out she couldn’t even set a single foot into the Brone offices. She was plenty fed up already, but now Sherry herself was dredging it all back up again.

“Mom, I’m begging you, let’s just stop talking about this. They’ve got their boot on me in the office. They keep their boot on me when I try to talk business. And now that I’m home, you want to put your own foot down too?” Tracy demanded, eyes rimmed with red as her bottled emotions threatened to break her apart at the seams.

“Our daughter’s been through enough even before she made it home. Give her some space.”

From his seat on the sofa, Terry set down his newspaper, helplessness in his bearing.

Sherry rushed her way into his face, hands on her hips as she raged, “Terry Perry! Do you have any idea the kind of mission she’s taken on? Gaining collaboration with the Brone Group is utterly impossible, and if this goes on, we’re going to be thrown out of the Perry Clan in three days.”

“I’m back!”

In that moment, a cheerful voice rang out, and the bright visage of Yuri Perry swept into the room.

“I’ve got good news for everybody…”

Having just entered the house, she took in the unpleasant atmosphere, from her raging mother to her helpless father to a despairing Tracy.
