"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
The First Son's Revenge 16
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

“What the hell, how can that kid be the new CEO of Arison? I thought all this time he was homeless and starving to death, but it turns out..." Abigail couldn't continue her words, looking back at the television screen which showed Reid's face. “I think so too, mom. He never came to the office and revealed who was actually doing all my work all this time. I thought he had an accident and was dead, especially from the report from the spy I asked to look for his trace, he only found Reid's car which was abandoned on the side of the road," Liam said. “You sent spies to look for him?” Abigail asked in surprise. Liam shrugged, “Just in case he really shows up at the office and ruins my career.” Abigail snorted. She turned to Daniel who was still staring at the television screen with a dumbfounded expression. “Honey, do you know what really happened? How can Reid be the grandson of the founder of the Arison company?" Abigail asked her husband impatiently. Then suddenly a thought flashed

Meanwhile, in a different place, a woman was seen relaxing on the bed in her room. Her face was covered with a thick mask to maintain her beauty, and she was flipping through a fashion magazine while imagining being able to buy all the latest bag collections whose photos looked so beautiful on a model's arm. That woman is Nancy."TING!"There was an incoming message notification on Nancy's cell phone. Actually, there had been message notifications and phone calls coming from her cellphone, but Nancy was too lazy to take her cellphone because she still wanted to wait for her mask to be cleaned.Besides, her cell phone was charging on the table, which meant Nancy had to get up from her soft bed and walk a few steps to get it. Nancy was really too lazy to do that, even though it didn't require much energy.After 15 minutes had passed and the mask was dry, Nancy got up and went to the bathroom. She rinsed her face there until it was clean. After that, Nancy took the time to look at her fa

As Charles Brown said to Anastasia Waverly, the reason Reid Arison didn't come to the office even though he had an important meeting was because he was taking care of his sick wife.After several days of being treated in hospital, the doctor allowed Elena to go home. Apart from experiencing a miscarriage, Elena suffered an injury to her left arm. Luckily her arm didn't break any bones, so her arm didn't need to be put in a cast.Even so, the doctor said that Elena's movements over the next two weeks will definitely be limited, so as much as possible someone should help Elena in carrying out daily activities that require movement of the left arm.Reid, who heard the doctor's words, immediately agreed. "There are many servants in our house who will definitely help her," said Reid.The doctor nodded, not doubting the number of servants in the arison residence which must be countless.Arriving at Arison's residence, Reid immediately gave instructions to several female servants to serve El

Charles Brown leaned back towards Anastasia Waverly, making the woman take a step back because she felt uncomfortable with their close proximity."You are wrong. You don't know who Mr. Arison really is, so everything you say is just your shallowly knowledge about Mr. Arison," said Charles in a sarcastic voice.For the first time, Charles openly shows that he hates Anastasia Waverly.Anastasia Waverly, who is used to receiving praise, certainly does not accept being called shallowly knowledgeable. She replied, “Then what is a real Reid Arison? Is he a person of great and noble character?” Anastasia Waverly again uses a dismissive tone.Charles Brown clenched his jaw. "There's no point in me telling you. From the start you've hated Mr. Arison, so whatever I say about Mr. Arison, you won't believe it," said Charles, then he straightened his body and got up to leave."Wait!" Anastasia Waverly exclaimed while chasing Charles Brown. Because she was in a hurry, Anastasia Waverly didn't pay a

Megan widened her eyes at her daughter's words. Cold sweat started to trickle down her temples.“W-what did you say? I conspired with Harry to harm you? Gosh, Elena, I'm your real mother, how could I do something like that! Just because now you are the wife of a rich Arison, you can be as impudent as you want to be with your mother!" Megan shouted angrily.But instead of feeling guilty about being scolded like that by her mother, Elena just chuckled softly. “Mom, after years of being your child, I know how you lie. You always cover it up by getting angry and shouting louder—like now.”Megan widened her eyes. Her hands were clenched in anger. Why did the situation turn out like this? Where's Elena, her daughter who is usually very easily influenced? Why is Elena suddenly so defiant like this? Ah, damn it, why didn't everything go according to her plans with Harry?Annoyed by feeling cornered, Megan again raised her hand to hit Elena, but this time, even without Reid's help, Elena herse

When Elena woke up, memories immediately flooded her.She remembered what happened before everything went dark. A car speeding behind her, a loud crash that shook her, and darkness that dragged her along.All these memories made Elena's body jolt and open her eyes.Elena was immediately greeted by pain all over her body. Elena wasn't even sure whether she could move her arm, whether it was because she was weak and didn't have the strength or something else, Elena wasn't sure. But one thing she was sure of, she felt her stomach was empty.“What happened to my baby?” Elena asked directly. She saw Reid's figure sitting in a chair next to her bed.Reid didn't respond with words. The man just shook his head slightly with an expression full of sorrow.Without needing to explain further, Elena already understood what he meant. Their baby did not survive.Elena immediately closed her eyes. Tears fell down her cheeks. Sobs escaped her lips, until then her body shook from the flood of thunderou

Hearing Harry's words made Megan smile. She also wants Reid destroyed. But one thought disturbed her."But don't you think that the child Elena is carrying could be our access to Arison's wealth? In other words, Elena is now pregnant with the future heir to the Arison family. Wouldn't it be more profitable for us to let the baby live?" said Megan. She is fed up with living “simplely” since her husband's death. She wants to return to life filled with wealth, even with much more wealth than before. And Megan thinks one of the quickest ways to get rich is to control Arison's property.But Harry just snorted.“You don't need to think about Arison's assets anymore, mom. I already know how to get a lot of money without any effort," said Harry with a meaningful smile.Megan widened her eyes with interest. "Really?""Of course," said Harry with a smug smile. “Now my only goal is to take revenge on Reid. I will make him suffer for the death of Brian and father," said Harry in a determined ton

Elena paced back and forth in front of Reid's study door, still considering whether she should come in or not.She had intended to apologize to Reid, but after hearing Charles' conversation in the kitchen, Elena felt even more guilty towards Reid. And that made her not dare to go in to meet the man, even though she had to go in, right?“Charles, what are you hanging around there for? Come in!" Reid's voice shouted from inside the room, making Elena jump in surprise.Reid must have seen the shadow of her feet on the door and thought she was his personal assistant.Because her whereabouts were already known—even though it was false—it made Elena feel like she had no choice to back out. Elena opened the door to Reid's study slowly.Reid seemed to be leaning back in his work chair with his eyes closed. Elena was sure Reid wasn't asleep yet because the man had just spoken."Get the files on the table," Reid ordered, still closing his eyes.Elena blinked. So Reid still thinks she is Charles

The next morningA head chef was seen serving special food to a long table in the dining room. There were so many kinds of dishes on the table that people who saw it would definitely think that there was a grand banquet in this house. Unfortunately no.Only one person will eat at the dining table, namely the head of the house, Reid Arison.Yes, this is the Arison residence. And the head chef on duty was none other than Belinda Caleste, the maid who was once Reid's spy who was stationed at Clark's residence.After being fired from the Clark residence by Elena, of course Belinda returned to the Arison residence, where she originally worked. In that place, Belinda's position was head chef.“The food is delicious, as usual. Thank you, Belinda," said Reid, who had just eaten the food Belinda made.Belinda smiled. Then the fertile woman said, “Should I call Mrs. Elena is here? I'm sure this food will taste better if eaten together.” Belinda felt sad about the various kinds of food that she

The news about Reid dropping the charges against Harry Clark also reached the ears of the Waverly family. John Waverly and his daughter, Anastasia Waverly, became furious when they heard this. Moreover, they knew that the murder planned by Brian and Harry was not only to harm Reid but also Amanda - even though at that time the plan failed because Amanda had hired people to pretend to be her and Reid. That automatically makes Harry an enemy of the Waverly family too.John and Anastasia could immediately guess why Reid wanted to free Harry, it must be because Reid had just married Elena, Raynold Clark's youngest daughter. Automatically Reid is now also part of the Clark family.“Dad, this can't be left like that. Reid could have freed that criminal just because he married into one of the Clark family!" Anastasia exclaimed with suppressed annoyance. Her white cheeks turned red.Amanda's twin sister was pacing back and forth in her father's study.Usually at times like this when his daug
