Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 

“But, Grandma! Are you sure you want Diane to resume her position as the general manager of the Shanahan Corporation?” 

Stanley looked at his grandmother in surprise. His face was full of disbelief and he could not believe what he had just heard. Catherine seemed to have completely forgotten what happened five years ago, to the point of asking him to make way for Diane to resume her position as the general manager. 

The old lady smiled indifferently, and said to Stanley, “Do you think I’m the type who likes jokes?” 

George, who was standing on the side, had a sour expression and he did not know what to say. Since the old lady had already made her stance known, there was obviously no room for further 

discussion on that matter. 

On the other hand, Felicia had a look of joy and said excitedly, “You’re a wise matriarch, Mom. You can rest assured that Diane will definitely lead our Shanahans to glory again. Meritocracy is the right way to go. Stanley’s been working in that position for a few years already, and the company is regressing instead of improving. If he continues like this, the Shanahans will lose everything sooner or later.” 

“What nonsense are you talking about, Felicia? The Shanahans are doing just fine! What do you mean the Shanahans will ‘lose everything’?” Upon hearing her remark, Stanley clenched his fists, took a step forward, and glared viciously at Felicia. 

Felicia was taken aback by his reaction and could not help but take two steps back. After all, she and her family had been oppressed by him for so long that she could not help but develop an inexplicable fear of Stanley. However, she steeled herself when she thought of her daughter once. again resuming the position of general manager in the Shanahan Corporation. She could not help but point out, “Hehe, I’m just telling the truth. Everyone’s watching, you know. Are you going to hit me? What kind of a person would you be if you do something like that? Aren’t you afraid of being. laughed at if word gets out?” 

“Enough. Stop arguing, you two. I’ve already decided that Diane will resume the position of general manager starting tomorrow. Stanley will be the manager of the business department!” The old lady said after some thought. 

“Business department?” Stanley nearly fainted when he heard that! Aside from being the most tiring and low-paying position, it was also very difficult to get any kickbacks in the business department. That would only worsen if Diane became the general manager. His situation would be a little less difficult if he were to join the human resources department or the finance department. 

“That’s decided then!” The old lady nodded, glanced at Severin beside her, and said to him, “I hope you won’t let me down, Severin. I’ll leave it to you to secure the Liberty City project. My decision to let Diane resume her position as general manager comes with a two-month probationary period. Have I made myself clear?” 

The corners of Severin’s lips could not help but twitch a few times after hearing that. She was a sly old fox, and he knew that it would not be that easy to put Diane back as the general manager.
