Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1244

Originally, according to her and Colby's plan, even if the opposition wanted to reclaim control of the Mintons and find someone new, there should have been a proper process to follow. At the very least, the new CEO would have been announced first.

But unexpectedly, this time the CEO of the Mintons was appointed out of nowhere, and within a single day, a new CEO was elected without following the usual procedures. No one came to take the shares from Odie either. It was all too strange.

Colby and I are different; Colby was a nobleman experiencing life in the slums, the knowledge he had, I lacked. So, I had to work even harder. In the beginning, I wasn't the only candidate for the heir apparent; I was just moved from overseas to make up the numbers. If the White family wanted to be connected to the Mintons, they could only send their trusted people. At that time, it was me, Colby, and Griffin. Griffin was unwilling to go and withdrew voluntarily. I was also reluctant because Mr. Elwood was already on his last legs, and I thought if I could endure a few more years, I might be able to become the heir to the White family. That seemed better than struggling to survive in a cutthroat place like Summerfield.”
