“Um… Will you be in charge of this project?” While blushing, Hannie continued to inquire. “I won’t let you off the hook if your family interferes with my projects again,” Jared warned.
She felt humiliated, after which she quickly nodded. “Okay, I’ll keep that in mind.” After that, she left in a sorry state. She did not forget to turn around and bow at the door, giving her complete sincerity, before she left.
After she left, Jared held Ellen’s waist and asked tenderly, “Have you cooled down?”
“Yes.” She nodded, and she never wanted to see people like Hannie again. “Stanley, invite the RY Company employees over. I’ll deal with them myself,” he told Stanley.
“All right.” Stanley immediately made arrangements for that. Ellen did not want to disturb Jared’s negotiation, so she retired to his room to rest.
When Hannie left the Presgrave Group, she called and yelled angrily to her assistant, “Pack up and book the earliest plane ticket to return home immediately!” Her true colors were revealed once she got into the car. She bit her lower lip and glared at the building housing
Presgrave Group. This is when I’ve been humiliated the most, but I know that I can’t offend Jared and can’t afford to do so, either. I picked the wrong person. If there’s nothing important, I’ll never set foot in this country again. It’s so embarrassing.
When Jared left the office with Stanley, an exasperated figure dashed toward him from the elevator out of the blue. When Stanley noticed that, he immediately stood before Jared and said to that person, “Mr. Turner, what can I do for you?”
“President Presgrave, I heard that you refused to let my son take over my position. Is that true?”
“Mr. Turner, your son taking over your position goes against company policy. This is al company, not a hereditary royal system, as in ancient times. So, there’s no such thing as the son taking over the father’s position,” Jared responded coolly.
‘Then, what about you? You could take over your father’s position. My son is so outstanding, and he works so hard. He’s capable of taking over my position. Please give him a chance…” Gavin gave him a pleading look. “President Presgrave, please do me a favor.”
“That’s impossible, Mr. Turner.”
“I’ll ask for your father’s help.” “This is already decided even if my father steps in,” Jared said solemnly..
“You… You hold others in contempt, don’t you? You’re just a boy to me. Listen. I sacrificed my whole life for the company, and my only request is for my son to take over my position. Is it wrong?” Gavin glared at Jared with deep wrath as if Jared was being unreasonable.
“Mr. Turner, President Presgrave is leaving for a meeting.” Stanley interrupted him to ask him to set aside his private matter. “I’m not going to give up like this,” Gavin declared before storming out.
Stanley put his hands on his waist furiously the moment Gavin left. “What’s wrong with Gavin? Why is he so stubborn? Why does he want his son to take over his position no matter what? It’s a modern world now. Why does he think that you’re wrong? It’s quite baffling.”
Jared recognized Gavin’s requirements. Gavin wanted to give his son a chance to develop his skills before he retired, owing to his unusual faith in his son. He hoped that the Presgraves would do him a favor.
“Forget about it. Let’s get this meeting started!” Jared stuck to his principles. He would not allow his company to be involved in string. pulling, so he strictly adhered to the policies.
Stanley nodded. I don’t have to waste much time worrying about this. After all, Gavin is just making a fuss. He’ll retire when the time comes.
At that time, a middle-aged man was pacing to and fro anxiously outside the lobby of Presgrave Group. When he saw his father coming downstairs, he immediately rushed to his father and asked, “Dad, how did it go? Did President Presgrave agree to it? Will I be promoted to your position?”
Gavin clenched his fists in frustration. “That b*stard rejected me, and he didn’t even consider it.”
