Chapter 4 Because We Are Brothers

"William, what do you mean?" Amberson asked in a panic. He was afraid of hearing an answer from William that he couldn't bear.

William said with a hint of gloom in his eyes:

"Retrovirus, the curse of our Osborne family from generation to generation."

Amberson nodded in understanding.

William continued with a sarcastic tone: "He has ruthlessly taken my father away, but unfortunately it seems to favor me more."

"When I was a child, I could always dream of a certain kind of silver light, which was constantly moving through the long green river."

"Gradually, the originally dead green river became flowing, manic, and boiling, and the silvery light gradually merged into the boiling green river."

"At that time, I didn't understand what this dream represented. I only knew that since then, my thinking has become sharper, my movements have become nimble, and my body has become stronger."

"It was like a perfect evolution, and I was still very proud of it."

William lowered his head, clenched his fists, and felt the surging power in his body.

"Unfortunately, nothing is perfect. When you gain something, you always lose something."

"When my father told us the secrets of the Osborne family, I woke up from a dream. The long green river that brought me strength and honor was the reversal hidden in our blood. Record the virus.”

"It was activated in my early childhood, many years before my father."

"I was frantically searching through family history documents. There was no record of retrovirus activation before the age of 30, and I was the first. At this point, I really had some kind of ownership. A unique 'talent'."

William said with a self-deprecating smile.

"The reason why I haven't died yet is purely because of the vitality of my youth. But the devouring of the virus has never stopped. It keeps devouring my life and feeding back my body. I will become more Stay stronger and wiser until the day you die.”

"Perhaps the Osborne family has been passed down to this day and has become one of the top giants in the United States because of the characteristics of retrovirus. Of course, the price is the life of every Osborne family member."

Amberson's mouth opened wide, extremely shocked, and his eyes were full of confusion and panic that could not be concealed.

Amberson stammered: "William... William, could it be that you are mistaken? After all, this virus has not been conquered by medicine, and our understanding of it is still unclear. Moreover, Dream...dream or something. Even if this is really the case, we still have enough time to solve these problems, and we can use the power of the entire company..."

Amberson no longer cares about the chairman or not. He is now a panicked young man.

Amberson panicked, he really couldn't bear this fact.The mother of the two brothers passed away when Amberson was very young, and their father is now buried in the earth. Now William is his only relative in the world.

William sighed softly and said: "Amberson, you are still young and don't know yet. You can clearly feel when the retrovirus is activated. This is not some stupid dream imagination. Dreams are just I couldn't understand it when I was young, it was just an image in my mind, but there was no doubt that my virus was indeed activated."

"I can even clearly feel that the retrovirus is devouring my life force, even at this moment."

"The phagocytosis speed of the virus is constantly increasing. Through simple mathematical calculations, I can even clearly know when the virus will completely engulf me."

"I suspect that my father is the same. He knows the date of his death, so he is planning in advance. Amberson, do you really think that the directors of the board of directors who agreed to stand with you are because of your lobbying? I'm afraid this is all Father arranged it in advance."

William smiled self-deprecatingly again and said: "Unfortunately, my father did not expect that. The heir for whom he paved the way in advance is now also threatened by the virus."

Amberson was silent for a long time.

William stood up and patted the dirt on his body, pretending to be relaxed and said:

"Okay, I have told you everything that needs to be said. Maybe I am really what Amberson said, a coward. Even though I know there is little hope, I still want to find a way to save my life. But the chairman of the group Someone must inherit the position. This position is too important. To do this well requires all one's energy. Even I can't do these two things at the same time."

William said as he walked outside:

"The election meeting is scheduled after the Future World Expo. You don't have to worry about the election. I have plenty of ways to deal with those directors..."

Amberson suddenly spoke up and said:

"How long?"

William stopped and was stunned for a moment, and then said calmly:

"One year at most."

Amberson's body trembled involuntarily when he heard this, and then he said firmly:

"I will still support you in the election of chairman, William."

William turned his head sharply and said sternly:

"Didn't you hear clearly what I just said? I can't be the chairman, and I don't want to be."

Amberson did not waver and continued to say firmly:

"No, you can. I will handle the company's affairs for you, and you don't have to worry about it at all. You can do what you want to do."

William was shaken, not because of the rights of the chairman's position, but simply because of Amberson's words.

William frowned and said:

"If I were to take this position, if within a year I could not find a way to save myself, it would mean that Osborne Industrial Group would undergo two major reshuffles in a short period of time, which would shake the foundation of the group. . At that time, other companies will rush up like jackals and tear our flesh and blood from us. Maybe in this big trend, even Stark Group will take action. No matter how good my personal relationship with Howard is, business is business."

Amberson just shook his head and said:

"That's an acceptable risk."

William asked with a low face: "Why? Why do you have to do this? Why gamble my life with the accumulation of generations of the Osborne family."

Amberson smiled and said matter-of-factly:

"Do you still need to ask? Because we are brothers, William."

"What one person cannot do, two people can do it together. This is the simplest truth. You must bear the responsibilities that William assigns to you, but you don't have to bear everything alone. I will be with you.

"If your life isn't enough, you'll have to put my life on the line as well."

William's eyes were red, and he finally shed a tear.

"Amberson."

"William."

Two brothers embrace each other.
