This was Old Master Granger's office when he was still alive.
It was the office that was used by each President of the Granger family.
The first time she was here was when Old Master Granger's father was still alive. He was her father-in-law.
Before that, she had always thought that she and Old Master Granger would divorce soon.
Her father-in-law had called his assistant to show Bethany around Valiant East the first time she was here. After that, he took her to this office and told her that she must take good care of Old Master Granger.
He had thought highly of her, the future Madam of the Granger family at that time.
He also reminded her not to give up no matter what, and to never let another woman take her place in the house.
She remembered that she was helpless at that time. She also told her father-in-law firmly that she would respect Old Master Granger's opinion and let him make a choice.
Old Master Granger eventually came back.
However, she had always felt that she had no say in the decision-making at that time.
Now, she could finally make her own choices and decisions.
After looking around the office, Bethany walked towards the cabinet at the far corner of the room. The photos of the former Chairmen of the Granger family were framed and placed in the glass cabinet.
She looked at Old Master Granger's photo for a long time before finally speaking up.
"This position belongs to my son. I want those who killed my son to pay the price. I intend to take back everything that belongs to him too. Just you watch and see, my capabilities as the Chairman would not be any worse than yours."
At the end of the day, only silence and loneliness filled the room.
At this moment, Clint was reporting to Amos in the President's office.
"I've made all the arrangements according to your usual practice. Do you have anything else to add, President Granger?"
Amos gave a cursory glance at the report, "I trust you. Let's talk about the schedule for the day."
Clint smiled. This kind of trust between them was the motivation that drove him to work even harder.
He then informed Amos of his schedule. Valiant East hadn't had a leader for a while, hence Amos had a lot of company affairs to attend to.
His schedule was occupied from morning to night. When he heard that he would only be done by 8.30 p.m., he frowned and said, "Cancel the lunch break and those meetings that are the least important. Reduce the meeting time by half. Also, from now on,
I want to get off latest by 6 p.m. Make the necessary adjustments for that, okay?"
Clint understood immediately. Amos was trying to spare the time to go home and accompany his wife.
However...
"Lunch break is very important. Shall we slot in a half an hour break into your schedule instead?"
"It's fine! It's the same if I were to rest at night! Just do as I say!"
Clint nodded. The secretary then came into the room to report the daily progress.
"President Granger, Mr. Hamilton from the Project Department is here!"
Amos smirked, "Let him in."
Clint went to open the door. Andrew was very pleased when he saw that it was Clint who had opened the door for him.
