Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 861

The glaring headline read: *Owen Lance Reclaims the Lance Empire; Lawrence Lance Demoted to VP. Is a Corporate Earthquake Approaching?*

Below it was a brief interview with Owen. “You've been away from the Lance Group for three years. Returning now, does it feel like everything has changed?”

“I wouldn't say everything has changed, but there's an undeniable unfamiliarity,” Owen was quoted. “It's a mix of strangeness and nostalgia.”

“You've made an incredibly aggressive comeback, stepping straight into the CEO role while your brother stepped aside. How do you feel about this transition?”

Owen's response was ruthlessly dominant: “I took the CEO position because I am capable of holding it.

“I was the CEO at Solflare Entertainment, and I am the CEO at the Lance Group. If I were to leave and work for someone else tomorrow, I'd be the CEO there, too.

“This has nothing to do with anyone stepping aside for me. I don't need anyone's charity.

“As for Lawrence taking the Vice President role, that is simply what the company required. It has nothing to do with me.”

“Will Solflare Entertainment's performance suffer due to your departure?”

“No.

“I helped build Solflare, but I was never its core. The true visionary has always been the Chairwoman, Ms. Mira Mercer.

“And as everyone knows, she is also my fiancée.

“Furthermore, the current CEO, Mr. Felix Grant, is just as capable as I am.”

It was a brilliant, seamless PR move to drive massive traffic toward Solflare Entertainment.

……

Mira read through the article, feeling a surge of relief that Owen had successfully taken control.

However, the fact that Lawrence was still Vice President meant Owen's path forward was going to be a brutal uphill battle.

Despite moving heaven and earth to bring Owen back, Leonard clearly wasn't fully on his side and was actively trying to keep him in check.
