Robert Griffith's hand tightened around the brush, and with a "snap," he flung it onto the desk. He looked up at his son, who bore a resemblance to him, yet seemed so estranged. His old eyes were locked in anger, and he asked incredulously, "Is that how much you dislike coming back home?"
William Griffith remained silent. Robert sat down on the sofa, holding a precious purple clay teapot, and asked calmly, "Yannis has been in the company for a while now. What do you think of him? Is he suitable to take over?"
William stood in the study, sunlight slanting across him. His handsome face was expressionless as he mechanically replied, "Suitable."
"Good. In one month, we'll hold a press conference for Yannis to officially take over the Griffith corporation. Meanwhile, you can stop worrying about the company's affairs, as Yannis will handle everything." Robert tapped the purple clay teapot in his hand as if he had already made up his mind and was merely asking William casually.
