"No! Everything's negotiable!"
Miranda gritted her teeth before saying with difficulty, "For something this important, I need to consult my father. Please tell me the second condition."
"The second condition is that Lennox must resign as president of the Cavanaugh Group and make you the new president."
Miranda was stunned. She wondered if she had heard correctly. Yolanda wanted her to lead the Cavanaugh family? She could not believe her ears!
Miranda sniffled and looked up at Yolanda with bewildered eyes. "Ms. Henderson, surely you hate me too. Why would you want me as president of the Cavanaugh Group?"
Miranda had prepared herself for Yolanda's revenge and humiliation, so she did not expect this at all.
"I separate personal matters from business. You're capable of being president, so there's no need to choose someone else.
"Besides, I'll soon own Cavanaugh Group shares. I don't want the company to be in chaos; it might drive down stock prices."
While Yolanda disapproved of Miranda's superior attitude, she could not deny her business acumen. The fact that Lennox valued her highly proved her impeccable performance in the business world.
Since her plane incident, Yolanda had sensed ulterior motives within the Hoffman family. Compared to the tangled relationships between Creybia's major families, having the Cavanaughs under her influence in Dunhill could prove beneficial at crucial moments.
Lennox had been suffering from his illness for the past two days, and now Miranda was kneeling before her begging. They must have learned their lesson.
By saving Lennox and making Miranda president, Miranda would willingly work for her in the future. This was why Yolanda hadn't chosen to destroy the two of them.
Jamie listened silently. She initially thought Yolanda was too kind. Now, she realized Yolanda's approach was actually brilliant.
Yolanda would gain half the Cavanaugh assets effortlessly while ensuring Miranda's grateful service. This was more satisfying than crushing them outright!
