Chapter 674 Honeymoon
Chapter 674 Honeymoon
Joe was shocked. He quickly got up from his chair. "M r. Lancaster, why are you here?”
Joe was a little guilty at the moment. Although he had just defended the reputation of the CEO of the Lancaster Group, he had just told the story of Mr. Lancaster and Mrs. Lancaster.
After all, he didn't get Mr. Lancaster's approval. If Mr. Lancaster found out, he would be very angry.
But Mr. Lancaster wasn't in the group and these employees wouldn't add him in. So Mr. Lancaster wouldn't know, right?
Thinking about it, Joe's fast-beating heart calmed down. He tilted his glasses on his nose bridge and restored the appearance of elite assistance, and one could no longer see the face of him gossiping in the group.
"I have a meeting later and I'll leave Theo to you.” Henry gently pushed Theo towards Joe.
Joe nodded. "I got it. Don't worry, Mr. Lancaster. I'll take good care of the young master."
Henry responded, "Okay.” After a few words with Theo, he left Theo and went to the conference room.
Everyone had basically arrived at the conference room —even Elliot was there.
Henry forced him to come here. Now his face was stern. "Why did you ask me to come?"
Seeing that Elliot was being impolite to Henry, the other shareholders looked at each other but didn't say anything.
After all, it was their family matters.
Henry handed the document in his hand to Elliot." Take a look at this first. This is the top secret that only the CEO of the group knows."
Elliot took the document and looked at him incredulously. "What do you mean?"
Other shareholders wanted to know too.
Henry sat on the chairman's seat, his fierce eyes swept across the crowd, and he said calmly, "From today onwards, Hayden will be the CEO of Lancaster Group while I will serve as the chairman. In the next few months, Hayden will be responsible for all matters in the group."
Since the old man passed away, he held both the positions of chairman and CEO.
However, because others used to address him as the CEO or Mr. Lancaster, only a few outsiders knew that h e was also the chairman. Now that he passed the position to Elliot, his future workload would be lighter.
But Elliot stood up with dissatisfaction. "Henry, what d o you want to do?"
The shareholders said, "Yeah, Mr. Lancaster."
Henry opened his thin lips and said, "As everyone knows, I got married yesterday. Of course, my wife and I will be going on a honeymoon. So after I leave, someone would naturally have to handle all the group affairs. This person is Hayden."
Speaking of this, he looked at Elliot and said," Secondly, he's my brother who holds more than 10% of the company shares. He's the second-largest shareholder of the Lancaster Group, so he's the best fit to be the CEO and I can rest assured of that."
Elliot said angrily, "So this was your plan!”
Henry ignored him and then said a few words before announcing the end of the meeting.
After the meeting ended, he looked at Elliot. "Follow m e."
Elliot had no choice but to follow him to the CEO's office.
At this time, the CEO’s office was empty. Everything else that belonged to Henry was removed except for the books on the shelves.
Henry tapped on the desk. "This office will be yours from now on.”
Elliot pursed his lips. "What about you?"
Henry pointed upstairs. "The chairman's office is upstairs. It used to belong to Grandpa and I haven't used it since he retired. Now that you're here, I have to move up."
Elliot snorted and asked, "How long will your honeymoon with Yvonne be until you're back?"
Henry said with a faint smile in his eyes, "I'm not sure. It depends on where she wants to go and how long she wants to go. I'll accompany her for as long as she wants."
His life had been limited to his future and freedom ever since he was born. Every time he went out, he either learned all kinds of elite knowledge or attended banquets to talk about business. He never went out to relax.
Now that he had this opportunity, he also wanted to rest and to know what it was like to travel.
Elliot seemed to have read Henry's mind and suddenly sighed, "Okay, I got it now. You guys should g o and have fun, but try to come back as soon as possible. I just woke up from a vegetative state and I can't stand long working hours."
"Okay. I'll make a move first then. I'll get Joe to come over and hand over the CEO's work to you. Joe will follow you till I'm back."
After speaking, Henry walked out of the CEO’s office. H e went next door to explain his work to Joe and picked up his child.
At noon, Henry brought Theo back to the family residence.
Henry handed Theo to Federick and went back to his room to see Yvonne.
Yvonne just woke up and was getting off the bed.
Then she squatted on the ground and picked up her wedding dress which had been torn into strips.
Yvonne wanted to cry looking at the luxurious and beautiful wedding dress that had turned out this way.
Initially, she planned to keep the wedding dress well s o she could look at it whenever she wanted, but Henry had ruined it all now.
Yvonne couldn't help but curse, "A*shole!"
Henry opened the door and heard her cursing. He raised his eyebrows. "Are you cursing me?"
Yvonne was startled but didn't deny it. She stood up and hummed, "Yes, it's you."
Henry went over and held her in his arms. Then he sat down beside the bed and asked, "Why?"
Yvonne shrank her neck, trying to hide but she couldn’t, so she just let him be. She pretended to be angry and said, "How dare you ask? Look at what you've done."
She pointed to the torn wedding dress on the floor.
Henry looked at it and smiled, "What's wrong with it?"
Yvonne pouted, "That wedding dress is something that I want to collect, but you tore it up like this."
Henry looked at her red lips, then lowered his head to kiss her. "Well, I'll compensate you as much as you want."
Upon hearing this, Yvonne couldn't help laughing, "Do you think the wedding dress is a flower bouquet that you can give whenever you want? Forget it. It's already torn, so I'll just keep it as it is." Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
At least this wedding dress was more important than her first wedding dress.
She had no feelings for the first wedding dress-she simply wore it.
But this wedding dress was different. It was from him and it was their official wedding dress. Even if it was torn, she wouldn't throw it away.
"I'll pick it up for you and tell you some good news later,” Henry said while pushing Yvonne off his lap. Then, he went to pick up the wedding dress pieces on the ground.
Yvonne looked at the busy Henry. "What's the good news?”
Henry put the wedding dress pieces on the bed and asked, "How about we go on our honeymoon?"
Yvonne's eyes brightened. "Honeymoon?”
"Yes.” Henry nodded.
Yvonne couldn't stop smiling. "Great, but..."
She thought of something and her expression darkened again. "You don’t have time, and neither do I.”
One of them was the chairman and CEO of the Lancaster Group, and the other was the director of an energy company. They were very busy on weekdays and had no time to go around.
"I’ve stepped down as the CEO of Lancaster Group and handed it over to Hayden. I'm now the chairman and I just held a general meeting with all the shareholders and handed over all the group affairs to Hayden."
"So you've made time?" Yvonne was taken aback for a moment and then opened her mouth in surprise.
Henry nodded. "That's right, so it's up to you now."
"I'll make time too." Yvonne squeezed her hand and made up her mind, but she was still in a dilemma.
Henry noticed it and rubbed her hair. "What’s the matter?"
