"Ethan, you've had your people for so many years. You should keep them," Giselle politely declined with a smile. "Just the other day, you transferred Adrian to our place. I really wouldn't want to trouble you anymore.
"Make sure to stay safe when you go out, especially Dorothea. She's getting on in years, so always have someone keep her company. Don't let what happened at the theater happen again."
Ethan had no choice but to relent. "Alright then. I'll try to help you pick someone when I have time. Maybe I'll ask my friends to recommend some candidates. Finding reliable staff in this line of work is really difficult."
Being 20 years older, Ethan treated Donovan like his own son. In the family business, they were always on the same page, and in life, he genuinely cared about him in every way.
Even if Donovan outshone him in many areas, Ethan never felt jealous or resentful. Instead, he felt sincerely fortunate that the Kane family had a capable heir to protect their vast business empire.
…
In the following days, Giselle officially assumed her role as the CEO of Anson Pharmaceuticals.
She had no prior experience running a company worth tens of billions of dollars. Still, with a few high-level executives sent by Donovan to assist her, she managed to pull through without feeling overwhelmed.
Her primary focus was rebranding the company. The original brand, "Anson Pharmaceuticals", had been founded by Renee, who had named it using a blend of her children's names.
Now that Giselle was in charge, the name "Anson" bothered her. She planned to officially rename it as "Sweetson Pharmaceuticals".
"S" was the first letter of her grandfather's name, so naming the company "Sweetson" served as a tribute to her grandparents and as a symbolic continuation of the company they had founded 30 years ago.
Just as she was about to issue the directive to her staff through the intercom, a knock sounded at her door.
