Chapter 157
“But, Grandma! Are you sure you want Diane to resume her position as the general manager of the Shanahan Corporation?”
Stanley looked at his grandmother in surprise. His face was full of disbelief and he could not believe what he had just heard. Catherine seemed to have completely forgotten what happened five years ago, to the point of asking him to make way for Diane to resume her position as the general manager.
The old lady smiled indifferently, and said to Stanley, “Do you think I’m the type who likes jokes?”
George, who was standing on the side, had a sour expression and he did not know what to say. Since the old lady had already made her stance known, there was obviously no room for further
discussion on that matter.
On the other hand, Felicia had a look of joy and said excitedly, “You’re a wise matriarch, Mom. You can rest assured that Diane will definitely lead our Shanahans to glory again. Meritocracy is the right way to go. Stanley’s been working in that position for a few years already, and the company is regressing instead of improving. If he continues like this, the Shanahans will lose everything sooner or later.”
“What nonsense are you talking about, Felicia? The Shanahans are doing just fine! What do you mean the Shanahans will ‘lose everything’?” Upon hearing her remark, Stanley clenched his fists, took a step forward, and glared viciously at Felicia.
