Chapter 529 Drake Left the Riley Group

"Baron, what are you talking about? You have a place! Didn't your dad leave you a house? Just go live there!"
"But I don't have any money. Emma, could I take me in?"
"No! Go away!"
Emma found Baron annoying and she would never let Baron get in her house if it weren't for their kids.
"I won't! I can't live the life I used to live. So I have to move into your place. Luckily, I brought all my luggage. I better not ruin this perfect chance today. I'll move in today!"
Baron then told his men to take in his luggage.
Emma hurriedly stood up, "Hey! What do you think you are doing?"
Baron didn't stop. He continued to move his stuff into the room next to Emma's. He didn't have a chance to be around her before. But now it was like a gift from god. How could he let it go?
Aria stepped out and said, "Mom, just let him stay for a couple of days. He just lost his father. It was hard for him."
Emma heaved a sigh, "Fine. Just for a few days. After that, he must go."
"Okay!"
Aria agreed with this but she had thought of a plan. When this was over, she would be out filming, Sophia and Drake wouldn't be living here, so there would be only the two of them. They would get back together sooner or later.
What a happy ending!
"For the record, don't even think about anything else!"
Emma could tell from Aria's triumphant face that she was picturing some of her "genius" plans.
Laura and Abbott walked up to Drake.
"Drake, we are so sorry for your loss. You have to move on."
"Laura, Abbot, thank you. I will."
"Well, we should probably go now. Anything you need, just tell us."
"I know."
They had dinner together before leaving.
And they found that Travis, Charles, Edwin, and Bard weren't there when they were about to get on the plane.
Sophia said with a puzzled look, "I just saw them here before. Where did they go?"
"I'll call them." Drake looked for his phone.
The call was unanswered.
"Where would they go?"
Luckily, it was a private jet. If it were a passenger plane, it would take off without them.
A moment later, they finally showed up and then walked towards the jet with no explanation of where they were.
"Sophia, Drake, give us a call if you need anything."
Sophia waved at them without overthinking it.
Drake held Sophia in his arms after the plane took off, "Now that I'm unemployed, I'll be a good husband at home, waiting for you to come home, alright?"
Sophia couldn't help laughing. She reached out and was about to pretend to hit him, and then she hit his chest with a fist.
"You better do so. You know what's gonna happen if you fail at this."
"Yes, ma'am."
Drake still needed to go back to the office one more time. Other than the handover of work, he needed to take things that belonged to him back.
It was unexpected for everyone that Drake was turned out of office this time. Back then, Roman had taken it over a few times. But Drake was the one who had the last laugh.
Even when Rashad got back this time and took the job as the vice president, people all thought that Drake was still the best one to run the company.
And the fact was also clear. Rashad had a few talks over cooperation but he didn't even get one.
Such being the case, Rashad got the company and Drake was out.
People all felt sorry for Drake.
But, that was the final decision of the Old Riley. What else could they do?
Drake grabbed his stuff and walked out with the staff waiting outside.
It was true that he was hard on them before, but he was never stingy on the pay or others in the whole package.
They all didn't want him to leave. After all, they had been working together for a long time. Plus, he was a hot boss.
Drake and Paul were surprised to see them.
Drake said with a smile, which was rare, "What are you all doing here? Go back to work!"
"Mr. Riley!"
They called Drake sadly.
"What? It's not like I'm gonna die. I'm just not working here anymore. I still got the shares. We'll see each other one day."
People looked at him without uttering a word, feeling sad.
"OK, now. Get back to work. Do you know how much the Riley Group will lose for every minute wasted by each of you?"
But for them, the real loss was that Old Riley let Rashad run the Riley Group.
"Mr. Riley, please stay."
Drake suddenly stopped in front of the man who said this.
They all stared at him expectantly with the hope that he wouldn't leave.
Drake took a cold glance at them and said with a powerful aura around him, "Remember, don't ever say it again or you're gonna lose your job for this."
They all knew that those who worked for Drake would leave eventually now that he was leaving.
But they just didn't want him to go.
At last, Drake sighed, patted his shoulder, and then left.
Suddenly that man said, "Mr. Riley, where are you going? I'll go with you!"
Drake stopped and turned to look at him with a smile.
"Where am I going? I'm gonna go home to be a house husband. You wanna go, too?"
"But what about Paul?"
Paul surely wouldn't stay here after Drake left.
"He's gonna be with my sister."
That sounded right. Drake and Paul both had a place to go. What was he going for?
Besides, Drake was part of the Riley family. That would sound ridiculous if he works for another company.
"I appreciate your loyalty. You can come to me if you need anything in the future."
That was a commitment from Drake!
Everyone was well aware of how huge that was!
Someone walked up to Drake a short while after he started to leave.
"Drake, you're gonna leave just like that?"
Drake and Paul were dumbfounded when Rashad appeared before them.
What had happened to Rashad with the bruises all over his face?
People were all surprised. What had happened?
Drake worried that Rashad would give them a hard time so he gave them a look. They then got the hint and went back to work.
Unintentionally, Rashad clenched his fist.
Admittedly, no one could be more influential than Drake in Riley Group.
