Chapter 336
Coleen got wind of Hansen''s quirks and chuckled, "What a lively old man he is."
Molly agreed to y a game with her dad before sending him off to bed. Coleen sat by her daughter,
waiting patiently for her to finish the game before starting a chat.
Once the game was over, Molly put down her phone andy down next to her mom, "Mom, is there
something you want to talk about?"
Coleen said, "I''d like to chat about your brother."
This piqued Molly''s interest and she turned to look at Coleen, "What''s up with him?"
Coleen reminisced, "When you were little, you were super dependent on Chad. He was the first one to
find you lying on the beach. He pointed you out to us, and after you woke up, all you kept calling for
was your brother. You wouldn''t let go of him and kept saying you were scared and didn''t want to leave
him."
Molly propped her head on her hand, "And then what, mom?"
Coleen continued, "Then you just clung to him for 15 years. In the winter, if he wore a ck trench
coat, you wanted one too. If you couldn''t find one, you''d cry until I had one made for you. He got a new
bed, and you wanted to sleep in it first. When he went off to college, you got acquainted with the
campus before him. If I didn''t buy you something you wanted, y a game or cooking something you
wanted, you''d go to him. Your brother apanied you to watch movies, took you on trips, and helped
you buy clothes. Molly, what role does Chad y in your heart?"
"My brother." Molly answered immediately, without a hint of hesitation.
Coleen asked, "Then why did you open the door for him today wearing only a towel?"
Molly squirmed, "I used to walk around the house wearing just a towel all the time and you guys never
said anything. Besides, who knew the towel woulde undone today. Mom, can we drop this? It''s
super embarrassing. I''ll be more careful at home."
Coleen sighed, she spoke to her daughter kindly, "There''s more to it than just this. You''re grown up
now, and you can''t be all over your brother all the time. You guys are siblings, but you should keep a
certain distance. You''re always hugging his arm, and resting your chin on his shoulder. Even your dad
and I don''t do that. What do you think his girlfriend would feel?"
Molly pouted, "He said he doesn''t n on getting a girlfriend till he''s 30."
"Is that what I''m talking about?" Coleen said.
Molly pouted even more, "I get it, mom. You think Chad and I look like a couple."
Coleen was at a loss for words.
Molly continued, "I''ll be more careful, mom. I''ll keep my distance. I''ll even wear a sign saying ''I''m
Chad''s sister, not his girlfriend''."
Coleenughed and gave Molly a light tap, "Molly, I''m not joking. Your dad and I know how close you
are with Chad, but you really should be careful. You should also have more male friends besides your
brother. You should expand your social circle and don''t just automatically turn down people who invite
you out. Participate in more activities. It will benefit you in the future.”
"Mom, aren''t my dad, my nephew, and my brothers all guys?" Molly retorted.
Coleen felt like her daughter was just arguing with her, she got up and started fixing Molly''s nket,
"But can you be friends with them? You''re in college now, I support you having a rtionship. If you
meet the right person, you should try getting to know them."
Molly could already imagine, if she started dating, the kind of stories her brother would tell her. Either
murder cases or deliberate injuries. Eventually, she got tired of it and casually replied, "Alright, I''ll do as
you say."
Only then did Coleen nod in satisfaction.
They then started talking about the two people who visited today, "What did Rosee for?"
"She was just visiting." Coleen said.
Coleen thought about the position of marketing manager at thepany which Saul had held for a
long time. He knew a lot ofpany secrets, and if she hurriedly fired him, it would definitely cause
problems. But if she didn''t fire him, it would also cause problems for the kids. She looked at her clever
daughter and said, "Molly, there''s something I want your opinion on."
Molly moved closer to Coleen, "Tell me, mom."
Coleen shared her predicament with Molly without mentioning specific names.

Upon hearing this, Molly immediately offered a suggestion, "We can strip him of his power. He knows a
lot of thepany''s secrets and if he suddenly leaves, he''s definitely going to sell them. So we can''t
fire him. We also need to find someonepetent to rece him, and then find him another position.
This way, we can promote him on the surface, but actually demote him. This way you can exin to
Rose, and say nice things to my cousin."
Coleen was surprised, "I didn''t mention it was your cousin, did I?" She had used the code name A, and
she didn''t mention that A''s mother was her rtive. She was curious how her daughter guessed it out.
Molly pointed to her head, "Mom, don''tpare a kid''s intelligence to your smart daughter''s, okay?
From your worried tone and your bad mood after they left, I could guess it had something to do with
them. If it was someone unrted, you wouldn''t care. Only if it was a rtive would you find it hard to
handle. Plus, their positions are high, so who else could it be besides Saul, my cousin?"
Coleen looked at her daughter, pleasantly surprised, "You are indeed Andre''s sister. I can rest easy
knowing that I can hand thepany over to you."
Molly hugged Coleen''s waist, "Mom, you need to find a good position to promote him to as well. If it''s
office work, the sry is too low. If it''s procurement, the profits are too high. If you let him work by your
side, you''ll have to be on guard against him."
Coleen found that when discussing work with her husband, he was alwaysforting her, seldom
offering substantial advice. More often than not, he was teaching her how to manage subordinates and
expand her social circle. But her daughter would say what she wanted to hear.
Molly said, "Mom, you gotta always be prepared for anything. There''s no such thing as too many
talents. Like, for the position of marketing manager, you could set up a deputy manager position too. If
the general manager quits, the deputy could step right in."
Coleen said, "Don''t sweat it, kid. Your mom didn''t slug it out in the business world for years for nothing."
Molly was curious about what Saul did that made her mother want to fire him, "Mom, can you tell me
what line my cousin crossed?"
Coleen said, "Your father doesn''t want me to tell you."
"He''s just worried I''ll go beat him up. Don''t worry, Mom. Mia''s pregnant right now. With her not leading
the charge, I wouldn''t dare actually go hurt him." Molly said.
Coleen hesitated for a moment, then thought that although her daughter sounded reasonable, she
might actually do something to vent her anger. She shook her head and said, "I better not."
"Mom, I''m begging you, tell me. I swear I won''t make a scene." Molly said.
