âUncle, Iâve communicated with my dad regarding Jessicaâs plans. My parents think that itâs best if Jessica inherits your position.â
Ryan smiled and said, âItâs okay if you donât want to step down for now. Just ask Grandpa to hand over 50 percent of the shares to Jessica temporarily. Of course, I understand your worries. Therefore, I suggest that if Jessica were to remarry, her child whoâll inherit Snow Corporation in the future must have the last name Snow. If Jessicaâs child is incapable of handling the responsibility, we can choose one of Carsonâs future children as well for the sake of Snow Corporationâs future. As for Rodneyâs children, only Dani can be in the running. His other children⦠Theyâre not allowed.â
Jessica pressed her intricate lips together and did not say a word, but she had already given her silent agreement.
After feeling shocked, Jason laughed bitterly. âNo wonder Jessica dares to be so fearless in front of me.
It turns out that you all have colluded earlier on.
Ryan, why are you doing this?â
Ryan smiled faintly. âItâs for my future, of course. My dad is the prime minister. Even if I canât become the prime minister, I can still rank below the prime minister and be above everybody else. Snow Corporation is the crucial aid that I depend on.
Rodneyâs private life is a mess. He believes in everything Sarah says. Heâs too easily deceived. The saying goes that there should be a strong woman behind every successful man. Iâll never leave such weakness with me. Itâll be troublesome if it drags me down. Therefore, I must quickly remove those weaknesses.
âAs for Carson, heâs not mature and steady enough. Heâs not ruthless enough either. Thus, I think Jessica is the most suitable person.
âMy dad and I are only hoping that the Snow family can go further. Since Rodney likes Sarah, weâll fulfill his wishes and let them be together. Heâs divorced anyway, and he intends to marry Sarah.
âUncle, itâs already the new generation. Some of Grandpaâs and your ideas shouldâve been eliminated long ago. To be honest, when my dad was running for prime minister, he wouldnât have been able to assume that position if it werenât for Jessica and me.â
âAlright. Itâs the young peopleâs world now. Iâm old. I donât want to care anymore.â
Jason waved his hand. He smiled bitterly. He finally understood. Rodney was a disappointment. He was dragged down by Sarah in the end.
However, Ryanâs words were logical. Sarah was a scheming woman, yet Rodney believed in everything she said as if he was brainwashed. It was indeed detrimental toward future developments.
âUncle, think positively. Theyâre all your children anyway.â
Ryan smiled and winked. âYou should be happy to have taught such a great daughter like Jessica.â
Jason was speechless.
Yes. He should be happy, but he felt like crying too.
After leaving the office, Ryan extended his hand naturally. âJessica, congratulations. Everything is within your control now. Grandpa will still have to give you the shares even if heâs unwilling.â
âThank you.â Jessica shook his hand. She suddenly asked, âAre you really helping me only because I can be a better helper for you?â
Ryan smiled. He did not give a reply. He simply took out a box of medicine from his pocket and handed it to her. âI bought it on my way here. Apply it to your face. After all, youâre the president. Donât let people make fun of you.â âYou can really predict everything accurately.â Jessica accepted the medicine.
She said, âRodney might not know that he lost not because of me but because he shouldnât have been on opposing sides with you. You like Freya, donât you?â
