Nicole and Julie stopped in their tracks. They looked at Ian incredulously.
Nicole calmed down for a moment before speaking. “
Hasn’t your family always been quite open-minded?”
The Carter family always favored and pampered their children.
Nicole was aware of that. After Ian’s brother passed away, the Carters’ love for Ian became even more indulgent. Ian could get whatever he wanted. Even if they were mad at Ian, they would hardly reprimand him.
Ian even squeezed out a few tears. “That was before! Carter Corporation’s internal affairs have been a mess ever since Grandpa’s health deteriorated. Everyone began to seize power, and the one that’s been going against us insisted on marrying their daughter to me. Otherwise, he’ll drive our family out of Carter Corporation.”
Nicole was shocked for a while. She was not clear about the internal affairs of Carter Corporation, but she was surprised that the Carters did not notice that a shareholder had seized power to such an extent.
“How did such a big thing happen to your family all of a sudden?”
Ian paused for a moment. His voice was hoarse.
“I’ve never cared about the company’s affairs. The shareholders in the company are my grandpa’s aides, but they suddenly betrayed us. I didn’t even dare to tell Grandpa about it. I’m afraid that he’ll die from anger…”
Nicole and Julie looked at each other, then cast a Sympathetic glance at Ian.
Ian, the hand-off boss, encountered a big problem that he simply could not solve.
The three people sat there, thinking hard about a solution. At some point, Ian started crying again.
Julie looked at him with disgust.
Nicole paused for a moment. “Um… Is that woman pretty?”
’If she’s tolerable, Ian can compromise first and fight back later…’ Nicole thought.
Ian’s cries became more intense. “She’s eleven years older than me and divorced…”
Nicole and Julie were speechless. Poor Ian!
It seemed that Ian would never compromise willingly.
Julie thought about it and proposed.
“Actually, it’s not impossible to turn this situation around…”
