My Bossy CEO Husband

Frankie, visibly worn down, remained silent.

Some director pressed on, “Frankie, Hughes Group is a Legacy.

It stands as a testament to countless people’s hard work.

Don’t forget Aldrich nearly steered the company off course before.

If you don’t take over and leave it to Chase, the company will surely suffer.

”

“Yes, Frankie.

Please, can you rally yourself for the group’s sake?” echoed several directors who were close to him.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Chase’s expression darkened at their words.

“Don’t judge me by my son’s actions.

Aldrich was framed.

Besides, I am not like my son.

My capabilities are on par with, if not better than, Frankie and his son.

I just need a chance.

”

Frankie looked up, his eyes filled with a mixture of anger and disdain.

Chase’s capabilities were commendable, but his character left much to be desired.

If his integrity matched his abilities, their father would have surely entrusted him with the leadership of the group long ago.

“Frankie, say something.

Who will take over the group?” Chase pressed, ignoring the anger simmering in Frankie’s eyes.

He added pointedly, “Mother always wanted us brothers to get along.

”

The emphasis on his last words was a clear warning to Frankie—Chase expected compliance, especially with their mother under his control.

Frankie’s anger was palpable, but so was his helplessness.

He had lost two sons, and now his ailing mother was his only remaining family.

Her health had deteriorated sharply after hearing the devastating news about Brian and Rosalyn.

Chase had denied their mother medical attention, refusing to let her go to the hospital or even allowing the family doctor to treat her unless Frankie handed over the company’s leadership.

If anything happened to his mother, Frankie knew he couldn’t bear it.

His son’s accident had already drained him of any desire to manage the company.

What was the point of the company if he had no family to share it with?

With a heavy heart, Frankie closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

“Brian’s accident has left me unable to focus on the company.

Therefore, I have decided to step down from management.

The responsibility of running the company will fall to Chase.

”

At Frankie’s words, Chase grinned with satisfaction.

He understood Frankie’s emotional nature and knew Frankie would never disregard their mother’s life.

Chase believed that individuals like Frankie, who highly valued family affection, were unsuitable for leading a company.

Handing over leadership to him was a much better choice; after all, business was akin to a battlefield.

Chase firmly believed that only his calculated ruthlessness could secure the Hughes Group’s position in the cutthroat world of business.

As murmurs spread among the board members, a close ally of Frankie attempted to intervene but was swiftly cut off by Chase.

“Alright, everyone.

Henceforth, I assume the presidency of this group.

Your compliance is non-negotiable.

Anyone in dissent…”
