Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

"Dad, since Rey is going to take charge of the branch company, don't you think it would be more appropriate for him to select the staff?"

Aron couldn't endure it anymore. He decided to fight for the rights of his son, Rey Gu. The shareholders who had come to a consensus seemed to agree with Aron. They felt that it was beneficial for the company.

"Do you doubt my judgment or your son's capability? Or are you scared that I'll make things difficult for him?"

Aron was perplexed by Jonas's questions. He wanted to say that he was afraid that he would deceive him but swallowed his words.

"No, that's not what I mean..."

"Good. Don't worry, I trust his ability. I will supervise the company to get him back on track."

Jonas cut Aron off before he could finish his words. In the end, it was Jonas who managed the recruitment of the staff. He wasn't ready to give up the power and responsibility that Nelson had given him.

After the meeting, Nelson asked the staffs from all the important departments to stay back. He instructed them to follow Jonas's decisions, irrespective of how big or small they were.

"Work hard. Don't let me down."

Nelson patted Jonas's shoulder and smiled. Jonas could see that his grandfather was getting old and became weaker with every passing day. He couldn't see him like this.

Jonas was busy with the recruitment process and development plans. He hardly had time for himself. He gave the employee list to Rey Gu and informed him about the people who would be joining the company. When Jonas left the meeting room, he got a call from Emily.

They hadn't talked with each other for a long time. Jonas was busy with work and almost forgot her.

"I'm back from filming. Do you want to have lunch with me?"

Emily asked hopefully. She had been patient and tried hard suppressing the urge to call him. Now that she was back, she felt that it would be a reasonable excuse to contact him.

Emily knew that Jonas would get busy and would soon forget her. She had to keep in touch with him to remind him of her presence.

"I owe you a treat anyway. How about meeting today for lunch? I will send the time and venue later."

"Sounds good to me. I'm going to unpack my stuff now. See you later."

Emily smiled and hung up the phone. Jonas asked William to arrange everything. William immediately made a reservation at a restaurant. "Boss, you have a meeting this afternoon regarding the branch," he said hesitantly.

"Got it."

The affairs of the new branch were more important to him. This was a test given by Nelson and he needed to prove his proficiency.
