    Chapter 250


    *T–taking over your family business?” Jules asked, stupefied Wasn’t Evans Group gone for good? it


    shouldnt even round as a congrany


    now, right?


    “Yes.” Caroline confirmed


    “Um, Caroline, don’t be impulsive. To be frank, I don’t like the way she does things either, but you


    shouldn’t be giving up your career


    because of someone insignificant.” Jules tried to persuade her to stay


    “Vivian is only a small part of the reason. The main reason I’m leaving is because Evans Group will be


    electing its new CEO next month Fm


    thinking of reviving thepany.”


    She might not be able to restore it to its former glory from her grandfather’s time, but she’d be content


    enough to pick it up from the ashes


    and give it a chance.


    For a moment Jules was stunned. “But I heard that Evans Group was in a constant state of loss. Are


    you sure about this?


    “I’ve made up my mind about it.” Caroline handed the resignation letter to him and added. “It is my wish


    that you’ll give me your approval.”


    Jules stared at the letter before him. He didn’t want to ept it, but he couldn’t refuse it.


    A momentter, he said, “How about I keep this letter first and wait until you’ve sessfully be


    Evans Group’s CEO before epting it? What do you think?”


    “Great minds think alike. I don’t intend to leave right away. After all, it’d take some time for the design


    department to look for a suitable new design director. I’ll continue working here until the new design


    directores.”


    “It seems to me that you’re absolutely determined to take up the role of Evans Group’s new CEO, eh?”


    Jules said, to which Caroline smiled


    in reply.


    “Alright then. I wish you all the best.”


    “Thank you.”


    After chatting with Caroline for a bit, Jules returned to his office and called Charles. “Charles, I’ve


    brought bad news for you. Caroline wants


    to resign.”


    She was the wife of Jules‘ boss’s nephew. Needless to say, he had to tell them about this to seek their


    advice on his next course of action.


    Charles, too, was stunned when he learned of this.


    He stole a nce at Kirk, who sat on a chair, listening to a report by the head of the finance


    department. From the frown on Kirk’s face, Charles deduced that he was highly unsatisfied with the


    report.


    The head of the finance department noticed it too. But he anxiously carried on with exining the


    report while tossing a look at Charles as


    a plea for help.


    Seeing this. Charles took a deep breath and approached Kirk, stopping beside him. He bent over


    slightly to tell him about the matter regarding Caroline’s resignation.


    The gloom on Kirk’s face dissipated, and he quirked an eyebrow. His eyes had a hint of a smile in them


    when he spoke. “Really?”


    “Yes. Mr. Hawkins wanted me to ask you what he should do next.”


    “How did he handle this?”


    “He epted the madam’s resignation letter but told her that he’d only approve it after she managed to


    secure her position as Evans Group’s next CEO.”


    “He did a good job.”


    Kirk then stood up from the chair and turned to the head of the finance department. “Your report is


    rubbish. I don’t want to see it again. Go back to where you came from and have it redone!”


    The man wiped the cold sweat off his brow and watched as Kirk left the office with Charles. Right alter


    that, his knees gave out, and he sat


    1/2


    415 BONOS


    The heads of the other departments crowded around him with sympathy and admiration. “You’re so


    lucky, James! What did Charles tall him? And why did he look so happy all of a sudden?”


    ‘I don’t know. I’ll ask Charles about itter”


    “Okay. I want to try the same trick too next time


    Meanwhile, Charles followed Kirk back to his office and asked, “Sir, should we ask Mr. Hawkins to hold


    on to the resignation letter?

    “Why would he do that?” Kirk asked.


    His question came as a surprise to Charles, who then spent a bit of time contemting the matter from


    a business point of view.


    After finishing his analysis, he said, “The madam has zero experience in managing a business. Evans


    Group onlysted this long because of Morrison Corp.


    “If she manages to be Evans Group’s next CEO, Morrison Corp, which is under Mr. Eddy’s


    control, will withdraw it’s investments. By then, Evans Group will be overwhelmed by losses. It will fall


    for good.”


    “If the madam doesn’t take over thepany, she can simply watch from afar,” he continued.


    “However, if she insists on joining tpany, she’ll be throwing herself into danger.”


    Kirk stared at Charles with an unreadable expression. Thetter asked, “Was I wrong?”


    “You’re right, but you missed a point. Eddy has Dan Evans‘ back. Who said SY Group couldn’t have my


    wife’s back? Not to mention, Evans


    Group is just a small business.”
