Chapter 506 Jacob And His Scheme
“You have to help me, Jacob. I want to be deputy general manager,” pleaded Harper in the manager’s office.

With his brows knitted, Jacob shook his head. “We can’t remove Heather from her position right now, The woman still has plenty to give to this company. If we’re to reposition her now, it will be extremely disadvantageous for our operation.”
Over the past few months. Jacob had become wiser and had learned how to recognize true talent.
Even though he would never admit it, he knew as well as everybody else that Heather was simply better than him at running the business.
Plus, Demi had made sure that he knew just how vita! Heather was to their corporation.
“But Henry promised me that if we get rid of Heather, he’ll convince his father to cooperate with us and provide us new projects to work on,” informed Harper.
“Really? So he’s not afraid of Four Seas Corporation?” inquired Jacob expectantly, The Hales are much more influential than our family. If we can get them to work with us, we’ll have no need for Heather.
Back then, the Hales had wanted to set up an arranged marriage to align themselves with the Jenningses. However, Henry’s brother, Leo, was sent to prison for sexual misconduct against Kate. On top of that, Four Seas Corporation had acquired Jennings Corporation back then, so the arrangement between the two families went up in smoke.
“Why would he be? We have already reacquired our shares and freed ourselves from Four Seas Corporation. Of course, the man has nothing to fear now,” stated Harper.
“You’re right! Why didn’t I think of that? Still, to lay off Heather, we’ll need Granny’s permission.”
“That’s not going to be a problem. All we have to do is steal from the corporate funds and blame Heather for it. Do you think Granny will still insist on having her stay after we show her ‘evidence’ of her crime? I don’t think so.”
After some thought, Jacob finally agreed to the suggestion. “Okay, let’s do it. I’m sure Granny won’t hesitate to fire Heather after we tell her about the new projects from the Hales. Then we’ll rid ourselves of the piece of trash for good.”
“First things first. We have to speak to Granny,” said Harper excitedly.
“No, the first thing you have to do is make sure that the Hales can deliver. Our operation will undoubtedly be affected if we’re to lose Heather without those projects backing us. Granny will have my head if that happens,” reminded Jacob in all seriousness.
“Don’t worry, Jacob. You trust Henry, don’t you? Now that his brother is in jail, he’s next in line to inherit his family business. Even though his father is still calling the shots for now, I’m sure he’ll have no problem getting us some of the smaller-scale projects. Even those will be enough to last our company for a while,” promised Harper confidently since she knew that Henry had been thinking about getting his revenge on Alex for humiliating him. Not only did Alex force him to lick dirty shoes, but the man had also forced him to swallow metal pieces, knowing well that it could injure his insides.
To Henry, getting Heather and Lucas fired was just the start. He had already come up with a full-fledged plan to exact his vengeance on Alex and make sure the man paid for his past actions.
