Chapter 462 Changes in the Riley Family
"I know you don't care about those things. If I were you, I wouldn't care about them either. However, I'm
upset about how Mr. Riley treats you."
Drake wouldn't have thought of it if Emma hadn't reminded them.
Standing next to them, he frowned, lost in thought.
"Drake," the Old Riley suddenly called, "Do you have anything to speak?"
Everyone looked over.
Many guests were curious about Rashad, wondering about Drake's attitude towards the sudden
appearance of Rashad.
Although the Old Riley didn't speak anything, Drake could understand his implications.
Earlier, the Old Riley asked Drake to offer Rashad a position in Riley Group. Since Rashad insisted on
spending more time with their grandfather, Drake didn't actually offer a job to Rashad.
However, on an occasion like this, he must speak up and make a decision.
Thinking of Rashad's shrewdness and scheme, Drake curled his lips into an ironic smile.
As the most powerful one in Sealand, Drake walked towards the center, giving off a stronger aura than
the Old Riley's. Even though he wasn't under a spotlight, he looked shiny.
Standing beside his grandfather, Drake said, "I didn't expect to have a cousin. I'm excited about the
return of Lily and Rashad. Finally, our Riley family is complete. I shouldn't be the only one occupying
everything in my family. Therefore, I plan to let Rashad be the president of the Riley Group from now
on. I'm sure he'll lead all our employees to make more achievements."
Sophia even didn't know his thoughts, looking shocked. She knew Drake didn't care if he would
eventually be the owner of Riley Group, but he wouldn't wish it to be managed by someone with evil
intentions.
She had to admit that Rashad was competent enough to manage the company, but she was still quite
surprised by Drake's decision.
The Old Riley frowned. He knew all the shareholders of the Riley Group had the right to impeach
Drake. Also, Drake had the right to abdicate and hand over his position to another man. However, the
Old Riley didn't mean to do so, wondering what on earth Drake was doing.
Rashad strode towards Drake, not afraid of his strong aura at all. They stood next to each other like
two close siblings.
"Drake, I know you wanna make up to me. Please don't feel guilty. If I had wanted to return home
earlier, I would have done it already. I returned home now because Grandpa was aged. I would be
sorry if I couldn't accompany him more."
"Grandpa also treats me generously. However, I'm not interested in working in the Riley Group. Over
the years, the company has developed well under your leadership. Please stop talking about giving
your position to me in the future. I only wish our Rileys to be a happy family."
The two were dealing with each other with insincere courtesy.
Looking at the Old Riley, Rashad added, "Grandpa, I know you want to make it up to me, but you've
given too much. I didn't come back for properties."
Rashad refused in many guests' presence, so the Old Riley was moved, as not all people could do it. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
He believed Rashad had never come back for money or property. Instead, Rashad just wanted to be
with his family.
"Good boy! Good boy!"
Rashad's words successfully won the Old Riley's favor.
Sophia could tell that, in others' opinion, Rashad had said something very clever, while Drake's speech
was slightly flawed.
She was afraid that others would despise Drake, which would have a negative effect on him.
With a smile, Drake replied, "Rashad, since you don't want to be the president, I won't insist. How
about this? Be the vice president of the Riley Group. We've never had such a position before."
"Although I seldom made stupid decisions, no one in our family could have helped me. I hope you can
help me from now on. What do you think?"
Sophia thought Drake was indeed brilliant in resolving the problem.
His words made Rashad unable to refuse.
Everyone in the hall knew Drake was the only Riley family member to operate the company. Aria had
no interest in the business. Back then, Roman longed to work in the Riley Group but lacked
competence.
However, the guests had hunches that Rashad was much more capable and intelligent than Roman.
Therefore, they couldn't tell who would be the eventual owner of the Riley Group and the master of the
Riley family.
"All right. Since you insist, Drake, I can't refuse you. Let's make an agreement first. If not necessary,
you cannot ask me to work overtime. I want to spend more time with Grandpa."
Rashad still seemed disinterested in the company. But he won the Old Riley's favor.
Olivia was good at pleasing the Old Riley, but Rashad seemed to do even better than Olivia.
"Of course, Rashad. I also need to spend more time with Grandpa."
The Old Riley took their hands and gripped them together tightly. "I'm so proud of having two excellent
grandsons like you. From now on, you must support each other. Drake, although you are younger than
Rashad, he's been out for a long time, so he might not adapt to the new environment quickly. You must
take good care of him."
"Please rest assured, Grandpa. I will."
The Old Riley tightened his grip on their hands.
Many guests could tell Lily's family status was high in the Riley family.
Some people, who had gotten along well with Olivia in the past, chose to take Lily's side and fawned
over her.
"You look gorgeous in this dress, Mrs. Riley. Where did you buy it? I'll go to the tailor some other day."
They started talking about clothing and makeup.
Lily looked at her own dress. Intentionally or unintentionally, she replied with a smile, "Sophia helped
me choose this dress."
"Two days ago, we went shopping. Sophia said she wanted to thank me for taking care of her in the
past, so she bought this dress for me as a gift."
"When I was hesitant about what to wear for the party today, I thought about Sophia's good taste in
clothing and decided to wear the dress she bought for me."
Her voice wasn't too low or loud, but many guests had heard it. So did Sophia. A weird feeling surged
in her chest, but she couldn't tell what was wrong exactly.
