Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 179

Lily's heart tightened at Granny's words, but she remained calm.

"Granny, it's okay. I don't mind being tired. Since I'm young, it's okay to work harder than others,” she said.

'Haha!' the crowd laughed to themselves.

"Lily, stop pretending. It doesn't matter how hardworking you are. With your ability, there’s no way you can lead the business," William mocked from the side.

The crowd around them nodded in agreement. Nobody was convinced of Lily being the one in charge of the business.

Lily bit her lips. "Granny, what can I do for you to be happy? Must I give away my share?"

"Oh Lilybud, it’s not that I don't believe in you. Honestly speaking, you don’t have the best ability among us. You're just a woman, after all, not a man. A big family like ours can't have a girl like you in charge," Granny replied. 2

Lily sighed to herself. Ever since she became in charge, she knew that nobody was on her side. She knew this day was coming, but she did not expect it to be so soon.

"Lilybud, I'm not trying to take away your authority,

but I can’t bear to see our business decline. There’s a lot of potential members in your generation, like William. We can't take away his opportunity," Granny comforted. "That’s why I'd like you to give away some o f your shares so that we can form a family board of directors. Of course, you’ll still be the first board of director. What do you say?"

William, who was sitting on the side, could not help the excitement in his heart. Once Lily gave out her shares, she would no longer be in charge.
