Three days laterThat morning in a very spacious and luxurious meeting room. There was a long table in the middle of the room with a row of chairs around it. The ceiling was gray with a long rectangular lamp and a projector screen at the end of the table. The walls of the room are made of glass so that it shows the dense and never-ending urban buildings and streets outside.Several people had arrived first and filled the chairs at the meeting table.Today there was an important meeting at the Arison company, and those present this time were a number of company officials and also the highest shareholders.Because the meeting hadn't started yet, they took the time to chat among themselves. Until someone's presence stopped their conversation."Good morning, gentlemen," said a middle-aged man with a sturdy body and a neat navy suit and gray tie. An expensive watch was around his wrist. He walked with confident steps and a firm look. That man was none other than Raynold Clark.Behind Rayno
Everyone thought Amanda Waverly was just joking, maybe Amanda was annoyed because the people in the meeting room had been busy praising Raynold. But when the meeting room door opened and the figure of an old man walking with a cane appeared, people's doubts were immediately shattered.Turns out Amanda Waverly wasn't joking. Jacob Arison is really returning to the company.Even though he uses a cane, Jacob walks with firm steps and unwavering eyes.People immediately asked themselves, didn't they say that Jacob Arison was seriously ill? Why does he even look fine?Where could a dying person walk and throw such a charismatic gaze?Raynold Clark was no less surprised to see Jacob Arison's presence. After five years of deciding to put the company in his hands, only today did Jacob Arison set foot back in this company. And what's more, Jacob Arison looks healthy. Unlucky!Raynold cursed in his heart.Following behind Jacob Arison were two men. One of them is Charles Brown, Jacob Arison's r
"Regarding the change of CEO, of course there will be an inauguration ceremony later. Now it's better if we return to the previous topic, isn't this meeting discussing Arison's new big project?" then Jacob Arison turned to Amanda Waverly. "Miss Waverly, has there been an agreement regarding this project?"Amanda swiftly answered, "Not yet, sir. This project is too risky and we are still considering whether we should continue with it or not. In fact, we were actually thinking of leaving the final decision to the leadership of this company."“Company leaders, that means it's your job, Reid. What do you think? Do we launch this new product, with huge risks, or choose to continue dealing with previously marketed products and play it safe?” Jacob asked, glancing at his grandson.Everyone's gaze in the meeting room was focused on Reid. Staring appreciatively at the young man whose presence today caused quite a stir among the Arison company officials.They saw that the young man moved calmly
Even though Reid had been introduced to company officials, he did not immediately work at the office that day.In fact, Reid could have gone straight to work that very day, especially since it was also to take advantage of the momentum when many company officials were curious about his figure.But Reid chose to go home because he was worried about his grandfather's condition. Even though his grandfather had looked fine in the meeting room, Reid knew his grandfather's capacity. It had been two hours since they left Arison's residence and since then his grandfather had been pretending to look fine. This cannot continue any longer.But of course Reid didn't tell them that the reason he left was because of that. The people at the Arison company—especially Raynold and his allies—must not know that Jacob's condition is not fine, even though it is not as serious as the rumors suggest.Reid covered up the reason for his departure by saying that he wanted the CEO's room to be cleaned first so
After a few moments of discussion, Amanda mentioned several names to be part of Reid's team in launching the Arison company's newest car product. But only one name caught Reid's attention the most. Namely Louis Walker.Louis Walker is a freelance employee at the Arison company and several other large companies. He is one of the greatest people in the automotive field. The designs are always spectacular and futuristic. Many eyes will definitely be focused on the results of the design, and of course the market will like it."During his collaboration with the Arison company, did he show a tendency to side with Raynold?" Reid asked.Amanda shook her head. “He's not on anyone's side. It's just that he is quite picky when it comes to collaborating. As I said just now, he is the greatest in the field of automotive design, so he is quite arrogant and can choose as he pleases who he wants to work with. That's why until now he remains a freelance worker and is not tied to a contract with any co
News about the inauguration ceremony for the CEO of the Arison company spread quickly. People in the upper circles of the business world are also curious about the figure who is said to be the grandson of Jacob Arison, founder of the Arison company.Moreover, the Arison company has a high position among all automotive companies in this country, so it is natural that the appointment of the new CEO of Arison is an important event that they will definitely attend. The company leaders even immediately cleared their schedules on that date so they could attend in person. They refused invitations to attend other events because events at the Arison company were very valuable.However, there is one company that did not accept this valuable invitation. Namely the Cliffton company.Daniel Cliffton, as the head of the Cliffton company, must have also heard the news about the appointment of a new CEO at the Arison company, because the news spread quickly even before the invitation to the inaugurat
The inauguration ceremony for the new CEO of Arison was held in the Arison company hall which was so spacious that it was the size of a football field.The hall was decorated with magnificent decorations in classic and glamorous shades of golden yellow. The tables were arranged with the names of each invitee arranged in such a way. On the tables delicious food from famous chefs was served, complete with quality wine. The guests who attend will certainly not be disappointed with the dishes served.One by one the invited guests arrived, their cars filled the large parking area at the Arison company. And as they walked across the red carpet provided at the front of the company, the flash from the media crew's cameras continued to burn, capturing images of important people attending tonight's event.And when a long limousine appeared, the media crew's camera flashes turned on more and more to highlight the limousine, especially when an old man wearing a cane got out of the luxury car.“Is
Raynold's son was also surprised. He turned towards his father and wondered what made his father look so upset?“What's wrong, Dad? What's got you upset all of a sudden?” Brian asked.Brian knows that this event is very upsetting, Brian's father should have been appointed as the new CEO to replace Jacob Arison, not a snotty kid like Reid.But since yesterday, Brian's father has always been calm regarding anything related to Reid. Even his father tended to belittle the boy, saying Reid was an idiot.Brian, who was initially panicked by Reid's presence, calmed down after hearing his father's words. OK, if indeed Reid is just a harmless idiot. Brian also lowered his guard towards Reid.But tonight, after seeing for himself how Reid gave a speech full of charisma, Brian couldn't help but doubt his opinion—his father's opinion, to be precise.Brian wondered if that was what made his father so upset now?Raynold answered, precisely asking, “How can that damn kid look that good?”"Maybe he j
