“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.
Ryan, why are you doing this?”
Ryan smiled faintly. “It’s for my future, of course. My dad is the prime minister. Even if I can’t become the prime minister, I can still rank below the prime minister and be above everybody else. Snow Corporation is the crucial aid that I depend on.
Rodney’s private life is a mess. He believes in everything Sarah says. He’s too easily deceived. The saying goes that there should be a strong woman behind every successful man. I’ll never leave such weakness with me. It’ll be troublesome if it drags me down. Therefore, I must quickly remove those weaknesses.
“As for Carson, he’s not mature and steady enough. He’s not ruthless enough either. Thus, I think Jessica is the most suitable person.
“My dad and I are only hoping that the Snow family can go further. Since Rodney likes Sarah, we’ll fulfill his wishes and let them be together. He’s divorced anyway, and he intends to marry Sarah.
“Uncle, it’s already the new generation. Some of Grandpa’s and your ideas should’ve been eliminated long ago. To be honest, when my dad was running for prime minister, he wouldn’t have been able to assume that position if it weren’t for Jessica and me.”
