Her Return, His Regret by Natie

Chapter 151~ His answer

"I'm resigning as the CEO from now onwards and Jason will be the new CEO of the Kingsley Group," Ryan announced. Ryan Kingsley had been planning on how to step down from his position as the CEO of the Kingsley Group.

Jason had not confirmed if he would take over as CEO, however, Ryan still announced it, hoping Jason was for the idea.
