Rodney’s expression changed all of a sudden. He leaped to his feet and said, “Sarah, something urgent came up, and I need to head to the office. If there’s anything, you can let the carer know.”“Rodney, is it because… something has happened to the company?” Sarah observed his expression nervously.“I’ll handle it. Don’t worry.” After consoling Sarah, he walked some distance away from the ward before he took out his phone.Today’s top searches were [The Successor of Snow Corporation Has an Affair] and [The Prime Minister’s Goddaughter Having a Marital Breakdown].He clicked the searches, only to see photos of him posted by many online media. Those were photos of him entering Sarah’s apartment in the middle of the night, as well as him carrying Sarah to the hospital in a rush the day she was scalded by the hot coffee when she met Freya. There were even records of Sarah’s miscarriage...One of the unknown Facebook users posted a lengthy message online. [According to an insider, Rodn
Snow Corporation had 12 directors in total. Besides the directors, Jessica, Carson, the general manager, and a few more senior managers participated in the meeting. After Rodney entered, he sat beside Carson. “Carson, why didn’t you pick up my call just now?” Rodney asked. “Did you call me? I didn’t know. Dad called me to the office just now.” Carson took out his phone as he spoke. There was indeed a missed call. “Alright. We’re having a general meeting today for the matters regarding Rodney, who’s in charge of our subsidiary company.”Jason leaned against the back of the leather chair. He exuded the strong aura of someone who was in a high position. His gaze swept across the meeting room and landed on the person concerned, Rodney. “President Snow, although this is your private matter, your actions have gravely impacted the image of Snow Corporation. I hope you can propose a solution to this.”Rodney understood right away. Since Jason mentioned a proposal, it meant he was not
Rodney’s expression changed upon hearing Carson’s words.He did not expect that Carson wanted to replace his position and that General Manager Quinn had betrayed him. General Manager Quinn was Rodney’s most trusted subordinate. Therefore, he had transferred General Manager Quinn to the alternative energy company to be his employee. Rodney glanced at the people in the meeting room.He saw that Jason was quite shocked, but the other directors did not seem surprised. At that moment, he understood everything.It was a trap. Rodney looked around, and his gaze finally focused on Carson, who did not dare to look at him. Then, he looked at Jessica, who was sitting calmly beside Jason. One of them was his biological brother, while the other was his biological sister.A wave of coldness gradually crept within him. After a moment, Rodney laughed coldly. “It seems like everyone has come prepared. But don’t you think that all of you are exaggerating things? You’re saying that I’m ha
Jason’s expression hardened. Rodney raised his head and looked at Jessica. “Sister, do you think you can agree to the board of directors’ request yourself?”“Of course,” Jessica replied indifferently. Her deep eyes were like a bottomless well. “President Snow, don’t say that you weren’t given a chance. Now, the board of directors can cast their votes. Those who agree to Rodney’s dismissal, please raise your hands.”“Jessica…” Jason glanced at his daughter beside him in a warning.Director Sands immediately said, “Director Snow, I think Jessica’s idea is great. Let’s vote. Hasn't the company been doing this all along? I’m raising my hand.”Soon, 90 percent of the people in the meeting room raised their hands. The others abstained from voting.Jessica lowered her head and looked at her father. “Dad, look. 90 percent of the directors don’t want Rodney to maintain his position in the subsidiary company. According to the company’s regulations, his position will be revoked. Let’s stop
Rodney was stunned. Then, his expression changed. “Snowden,” Jessica said that word slowly. “You think you have Snowden under your control, but that’s just your thought. Snowden’s people are obeying you just because I told them to. Grandpa and Dad think that they’re in charge of the Snow family, but that’s not the case. It’s only because I let them think that way. It’s because I respect them and listen to them.”Rodney’s whole body was shaking. He suddenly recalled General Manager Quinn’s betrayal. He thought he could dominate everything, but that was not true.“Is Master Porter your subordinate?” Rodney asked with gritted teeth.“Otherwise, where do you think the photos of you going in and out of the condominium and the photos of Sarah’s proof of miscarriage came from?”Jessica glanced at him resignedly and mockingly. “Rodney, I admit that you’re very clever. However, when you were still playing around with mud, I was already strategizing. This is the difference between us.”
Carson brushed Rodney’s hands off and left. Rodney stood in the empty meeting room alone. He just went through a divorce yesterday, and he was kicked out of Snow Corporation the next day.Even his relationship with his family was severely impacted.He was in a daze. A month ago, he felt so satisfied as if he was the happiest man in the world.He had a family, a wife, a child, and his career. In his vision, he even predicted that he would enter the top 100 of the global billionaire rankings in the near future. However, he had lost everything.He could not accept reality and smashed the cup. His eyes were bloodshot from anger.…In the director’s office on the top floor.Jessica knocked on the door and entered. Jason stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows expressionlessly with his hands behind his back.“Dad, sorry to have made you wait. I was talking to Rodney in the meeting room just now, so I was delayed.”Her cool voice resounded in the office.Jason turned ar
Jason felt uncomfortable hearing Jessica’s words. Traces of shame welled up in his heart too. However, there were some things that he could not back down on. “I admit that you’ve sacrificed a lot for the Snow family. I’ll communicate with your grandpa to give you more of Snow Corporation’s shares.”“Are you talking about changing my initial 15 percent of shares to 20 percent?” Jessica laughed sarcastically. “Both of my brothers have 30 percent of the shares respectively. Even their future children will have shares when they’re born. What about me?”Jason’s expression changed. That was an agreement that Old Master Snow had set up privately. No one else knew about it besides him. “How did you know that?”“I know more than you all do.”Jessica closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the desolateness and sadness inside them were gone. Her eyes were just ice-cold now. “Jessica, this isn’t something that I can decide.”In the end, Jason said helplessly, “Although your grandpa is
“Uncle, I’ve communicated with my dad regarding Jessica’s plans. My parents think that it’s best if Jessica inherits your position.”Ryan smiled and said, “It’s okay if you don’t want to step down for now. Just ask Grandpa to hand over 50 percent of the shares to Jessica temporarily. Of course, I understand your worries. Therefore, I suggest that if Jessica were to remarry, her child who’ll inherit Snow Corporation in the future must have the last name Snow. If Jessica’s child is incapable of handling the responsibility, we can choose one of Carson’s future children as well for the sake of Snow Corporation’s future. As for Rodney’s children, only Dani can be in the running. His other children… They’re not allowed.”Jessica pressed her intricate lips together and did not say a word, but she had already given her silent agreement.After feeling shocked, Jason laughed bitterly. “No wonder Jessica dares to be so fearless in front of me. It turns out that you all have colluded earlier on
