The Amazing Son-In-Law

Grandma's Decision

Daren nodded then smiled faintly at Jackob. “You are Dad’s only employee I can trust and rely on, Jack. And I hope that whatever Dad’s attitude towards me, you will always protect him. He is old and frail even though he acts great at times.”

“Very well, Young Master Wiles. I will always obey all your orders.”

“Good!”

After talking with Jackob, Daren even went straight home. He also brought several luxurious menus from the restaurant.

When he got home, Daren put all the food menus on the dining table. Serena, who had just opened the bedroom door, glanced at what Daren had brought.

“What are you carrying? Where were you from?”

“I just came from the Wiles family company to do a demo.”

“Demo?” Serena said with a mocking smile. “I’m sure, even all the files you brought were thrown away by them without them looking at those files first.”

Daren smiled sweetly, then he invited Serena to enjoy the food he had brought earlier.

“Where do you get expensive food like this?”

“You don’t need to wonder where I got it, just enjoy it before it gets cold. And regarding the file I brought earlier, believe me there will be good news for that.”

“Tsk! Don’t dream in broad daylight, Daren.”

Serena was just about to touch the food on her table, when a call came into her cell phone. It was a call from her grandmother. Serena quickly accepted the call.

“What is it, Grandma?” Serena asked afterward.

“Tell Daren, if the cooperation extension agreement between the Wiles family company and the Hoodie family company has been approved. Now ask him or send him here, I want to know what position he wants in the company so I can prepare it."

“What?” Serena was shocked. Even Serena almost couldn’t believe this.

“Who called you?” Daren asked, Serena just kept silent. “Is that Grandma? Did Grandma say the agreement was approved?” Daren guessed again.

Serena gasped then she put her dead cell phone away. “Grandma asked, what position do you want in the company, as a gratitude. Grandma will prepare whatever position you want.”

“Is it true?” Daren asked.

“Yes, of course.”

“If that’s the case, I want to be the CEO of your family company.” Daren answered firmly.

“What? Are you crazy? Do you want to take my position in my own family company? You really are hallucinating!” Miles shouted.

How could Miles not be angry, he was invited to meet with Mrs. Hoodie to discuss the position that Daren would occupy, and what was crazy for them was that Daren asked for an unreasonable position.

“Which school do you think you graduated from, Daren? Explain to me! What’s your degree? And how long have you worked at the company? Even you are just a food delivery person from a small restaurant. How can a beggar like you ask for an unreasonable position in the company? Do you want to destroy the company owned by the Hoodie family?”

Serena, who heard this, didn’t seem to deny Miles’ words, Serena even agreed with Miles’ words this time. Serena thought that what Daren asked was completely unreasonable.

“Didn’t Grandma say that I could take any position in the company when I managed to get an extension of cooperation with the Wiles company? So I think whatever I asked for was not wrong, it was even quite commensurate with what I gave to the Hoodie family company. More than that, what’s wrong with my request? Just leading a company is not something difficult.”

“Tch! Why do you act as if you are the most meritorious figure in the Hoodie family company just because you can extend your cooperation with the Wilies family company? Do you think you can lead a company that big just by chance or even luck? There are thousands of employees there who depend on the Hoodie family company for their lives. If the Hoodie family company goes bankrupt because of you, many employees might be threatened with being fired just because of your crazy attitude!" Miles snapped, he was furious with Daren.

“Why are you so sure that I will make the Hoodie family company go bankrupt? Don’t you think that maybe I could bring a lot of benefits to the Hoodie family company? The system you use in running the company is really messed up, and you can ask the Wiles family company yourself why they want to terminate the cooperation contract with the Hoodie family company.” Daren said quite loudly. “The main cause is because the current leadership of the Hoodie family company is incompetent in running the company so they are afraid that their company will suffer losses because of the arrogant attitude of the leadership of the Hoodie family company.”

Everyone there was silent, especially Miles. He felt slapped by everything and it made him feel humiliated in front of his grandmother.

“You really know who—”

“That’s enough, can you guys stop arguing about this matter?” Mrs. Hoodie finally spoke after her long silent.

“Grandma, you have to support me, because what Daren is asking is unreasonable. I’m sure all of that is impossible, and—"

“Okay, I will entrust the Hoodie family company to you to take over temporarily, Daren. What if I give you one year? You will take over leadership of the Hoodie family company within one year, I want to know how you will lead your company. But remember, in making any decision, you have to ask for my approval first, you can’t sign an agreement or anything, you have to send everything to me. In the sense that you only personally lead the Hoodie family company, and the final decision is still in my hands. It’s not because I don’t trust you, Daren. You certainly know the reason I do this.”
