Although Naomi and Eddison were reluctant, they submitted under Amos' domineering aura. The next day, they packed up their things and went back to Rosaville City.
As soon as the car was about to turn, it was stopped by Amos.
"Go straight to the Granger Mansion."
Eddison asked curiously, "Why are we going there?"
"You're going to take over the Granger family's business, that's why!" Naomi teased.
Before Naomi could finish gloating, Amos teased her, "You too."
The two siblings' faces instantly stiffened, as though they were forced to resign to fate.
Indeed, the first thing they did after they returned to the mansion was to ask Alfred to clean up the two master bedrooms for Naomi and Eddison.
Although the two rooms were master bedrooms, they weren't totally identical. Alfred gave the better room to Eddison.
Before they entered the house, Alfred noticed that Naomi seemed to be rebelling.
After thinking about it, Alfred explained things to her.
"Miss Naomi, this room is indeed smaller than the other master bedroom. If you aren't satisfied, we will prepare another one for you in the next few days! I will definitely arrange a bigger room for you!"
However, Naomi still seemed to be dissatisfied. She turned to Alfred and complained, "You're wrong!"
Alfred felt a burst of fear. Naomi had always had a good temper and it was probably the first time she had scolded him!
"I'm sorry, Miss Naomi, it's my fault!"
"No, it's not that! Can't you tell Dad that there are no more rooms here for me? Didn't you always say that girls aren't suited to inherit the family's business? Why don't you persuade him?"
Alfred was stunned upon hearing her words.
"Miss Naomi..."
"Forget it! You won't understand! I just want to live a free life."
Alfred was rendered speechless.
He thought to himself, "It's my fault for not understanding the mentality of the rich."
Even though they were unwilling, they went to the company the next day under Amos's arrangement.
Eddison was given the position of the general manager. As for Naomi, she would become the vice president.
In that regard, Naomi felt a burst of dissatisfaction.
"Everyone is being biased. Why didn't you give Eddison a higher position, Dad? I would rather just be an ordinary employee!"
Eddison snickered, "Stop complaining, or else Dad might make you the president!"
Naomi was dumbfounded by his words.
She immediately shut her mouth.
After that, Amos gave them intense training for a week. During that week, Eddison and Naomi were so busy that they had no extra time to rest. They would fall asleep before having dinner when they returned home.
However, every time they woke up, they found that Eudora had prepared a change of clothes for them and left some food for them.
Originally, they had thought that things had been tough on them, but they didn't expect that things would become even harder for them after Amos completely left the company in their hands.
Since they had just taken over the company, there were many things that needed to be updated and reorganized. In the end, Naomi and Eddison made the decision to stay in the company.
Eudora looked at the empty rooms, feeling quite dissatisfied.
"They're still young. If you let go of the company right now, they will die of exhaustion!"
"I took over the company when I was even younger. I turned out fine."
Eudora felt exasperated.
"How can the children be compared to you?"
Hearing that, Amos was in a good mood.
"Are you praising me?"
Eudora retorted, "Me, praising you? You're already so old, so don't you feel ashamed upon saying such shameless words?"
Amos did not get angry. Instead, he picked up the brochure that he was reading and handed it to Eudora.
"Do you think this place looks nice?"
