Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1564

Chapter 1564 Cecily, Long Time No See

“Then, why are you the one taking over the company instead of me? Have you secretly won over Dad’s affection and proven your worth to him without my knowledge?” Bonnie sneered.

“Personally, I don’t even bother with that sort of thing. It’s completely up to Dad, and all we can do is respect his decision, seeing that taking over the company doesn’t really change anything. Don’t take it personally because I don’t feel confident in assuming company leadership either.”

It was hard to fathom how Queenie could have failed to notice Bonnie’s jealousy.

“There is a possibility that I am superior to you in another respect.” Bonnie cocked an eyebrow, wondering how she could speedily assume this responsibility. How likely she could take control of the business was something to think about down the road.

Queenie had no doubts about Bonnie’s abilities; instead, she had witnessed Bonnie struggle to understand the report earlier in the meeting.

“Bonnie, if you are concerned about our parents, please refrain from being self-willed in this circumstance. We are a family, and no matter who runs the company, we will not mistreat you.” Queenie calmly explained.

Nonetheless, the tension in Bonnie’s eyes did not soften and she snorted softly. “I know what you’re up to. You’re just bullying me because you plan to take over the company soon for financial gain, and you think I’m naive and uneducated.”

“Our family’s wealth is sufficient for me to live a prosperous life. Why would I need that much money?” Queenie frowned.

When she heard what Bonnie said, she was completely taken aback because she had never met someone with this particular mindset before.

“Hmph! I will learn to manage the business and refuse to give up or admit defeat without a fight.” After making that statement, Bonnie walked over to her red Ferrari, opened the door, and drove off arrogantly.

Queenie turned around and sighed as her father’s health was the only thing on her mind at the time, for which she sincerely wished for a speedy recovery. Then, she glanced at her watch and realized it was lunchtime, which prompted her to call Nigel.

“Missed me?” His gentle voice lingered languidly.

“I’d like to have lunch with you. Are you available now?” Queenie’s heart swelled with affection.

“Of course. Do you want me to pick you up?”

“Nah. I’ll drive over. Are you at the headquarters? I’m leaving right now.”
