Bullied and Dumped, But She Won in the End (Adriana) novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 The New CEO

Her eyes grew colder and sharper. If she could kill her own father, taking out Mister was nothing.

Lincoln Group.

With everything that had happened, the board members were left staring at each other, clueless about what was going on.

No one knew why Denton had suddenly transferred his shares to Savannah.

Savannah herself hadn’t even finished the paperwork before she rushed in, eager to claim her new territory.

“Hello, everyone. My name is Silas Harrison, the new CEO of Lincoln Group. I’m looking forward to working with you all.” A tall, imposing man walked into the conference room before Savannah could even speak.

He wore gold–rimmed glasses, and his presence alone was enough to make Savannah’s nerves jump,

She stared at Silas, stunned. She never expected Mister would send Silas to take over Lincoln Group.

Everyone in the room knew who Silas was. He was the last person their CEO, Gary, ever wanted to talk about. Silas was the illegitimate son of Gary’s grandfather, Cedric Harrison and also Gary’s father’s much younger half–brother.

In other words, he was “Uncle Silas” to Gary, even though he was eight years younger than

him.

Silas was born after Cedric’s affair with a Centralian nurse during Cedric’s last years at the Moweland nursing home. For the Harrisons, Silas was a disgrace, so he grew up in Moweland, with no help from the family after Cedric died.

But in the business world, everyone knew Silas was a man who clawed his way to the top of Moweland’s financial sector through sheer determination and ruthlessness.

Back when Lincoln Group was at its peak with Curtis at the helm, people used to joke, “Harborton has Curtis, Moweland has Silas. If those two ever joined forces, everyone else might as well retire.”

“Silas?” The Lincoln Group execs exploded in whispers.

He was the kind of leader they could only dream of having, and now he was here, ready to step in…

Savannah never imagined Mister would send Silas.

She knew exactly what Silas was capable of–and she wasn’t in his league at all.

Sitting nervously on the couch, Savannah eyed Silas warily.

“Mister sent me to manage Lincoln Group. We’ll be working together from now on.” Silas glanced at Savannah with a calm smile.

Savannah couldn’t even force a smile. The look on the other board members‘ faces made it clear–they were all thrilled to have Silas as their new CEO.

Savannah’s face darkened. She stood up and left the room.

She was furious, but she had no options left.

Unless Mister was out of the picture, she would always be under someone’s thumb.

She stormed out and called Mister in a rush. “Mister, why Silas?”

“What’s wrong? A company like Lincoln Group needs a capable manager, don’t you think?” Mister’s voice was icy.

“It’s not that…” Savannah trailed off, because she couldn’t deny Silas was the better leader

There was no argument to make.

“Cooperate with Silas, and don’t make trouble.” Mister’s tone left no room for negotiation. He hung up on her again.

Savannah went pale, leaning against the wall outside the restroom, her mind spinning.

Regret set in–maybe she shouldn’t have acted so rashly with Ernest. At least with Ernest around, the Ferons still held the reins at Lincoln Group.

Now that Silas was here, she’d just shot herself in the foot.

“Silas a tough cookie.” Before Savannah snapped out of it, Denton Lincoln’s voice came from behind.

He looked at her with barely disguised glee, needling her on purpose. “I just left the conference room. The board members are already cozying up to Silas. They trust him
