Chapter 175

When Andrei's health improved, he returned to his role at the Linde Group, reclaiming control over the company's operations, leaving Asher to assist rather than lead.

Asher soon redirected his focus back to QuickClip, the venture he fully owned and naturally preferred to prioritize over his stepfather's company.

In the hospital room, Andrei turned to his daughter, Dana, and asked, "Dana, how's school going lately?"

Dana replied casually, "It's going well!"

"Start interning at the company," he urged.

Dana protested, "Dad, I'm still young. How could I possibly understand the business? Isn't it fine with Asher handling things?"

Andrei glanced at Asher, who stood nearby.

Asher managed the company well and always displayed respect.

However, Andrei remained guarded. Asher, after all, was not family by blood.

For Andrei, the future of the Linde Group rightfully belonged to his daughter.

He told Dana, "You should spend more time at the company, learning from Asher. He can't look after things forever. Eventually, you'll have to take charge." Dana insisted. "But I don't want to. Dad, my dream is to be a musician. I even won an award at a recent piano competition!"

Hearing this, Andrei grew so upset he started coughing.

He had worked so hard for so many years, but in the end, his daughter was such a disappointment.

"Dear..." Edith hurried over to her husband's side, reassuring him, "I'll make sure Dana learns what she needs for the company. Don't worry. I'll guide her." Andrei sighed, casting a look at Asher.

Understanding the silent cue, Asher said, "I have something on. I'll leave now." He exited, giving them space.

Seeing Asher leave, Andrei turned to Edith. "The company must belong to Dana."

Edith assured him. "Of course. Asher's only here to help. I'm well aware of that."

Andrei added, "And if he ever grows too ambitious..."
