Chapter 602 Gregory's chuckle was short and laced with mockery, his expression clearly amused at the discomfort he was causing. "Why don't you ask everyone here if you're still the chairman of the Ford Group?" Hanson gripped his cane tighter.
The last the had been this angry, he had coughed up blood. Although it hadn't been life-threatening, it had affected sof his nerves, leading to a decrease in mobility.
That was why he was in such a rush, why he had teamed up with Pearl, ensuring Victor could take over the Myers family's business, and then collaborate with him.
By doing so, he'd have both the Myers and his own family under his control, granting him more influence than Gregory.

But Gregory had outmaneuvered him, showing up at the Ford Group bright and early to call a high-level meeting without notifying him. Well, that wasn't entirely true.
The rascal knew someone would inform Hanson, but even rushing over as soon as he got the message, Hanson was still too late.
"Just now, I got off the phone with Mr. Victor," Gregory was saying. “He's fully taken over the Myers Group and is now the head of the Myers family. He's interested in partnering with the Ford Group, and that partnership will only be negotiated and signed with me." "Everyone here understands that as times change, the Ford Group needs to evolve, which will require significant investment. I believe apart from the Myers Group, there isn't another suitable and willing partner for us." The room remained silent.
The Myers Group partnering with the Ford Group wasn't something only Hanson could facilitate.
But at this moment, Gregory's ruthlessness surpassed even that of his father.
He had them by the throat. They had no choice but to comply.
"Hanson," a director who had followed Hanson for years spoke up, "since you mentioned the Ford Group needs to evolve, maybe it's tfor us old bones to retire gracefully. It's the era of the young now." "Besides, your son has proven himself highly capable, founding SZ Technology. Since his return to the Ford Group, he's driven impressive growth. Look at you, your health isn't great. Maybe it's tto let go." Hanson couldn't believe what he was hearing. This was someone who had climbed the ranks with him, taking the Ford Group to new heights. "Do you even hear yourself?!" "Of course, do," the director replied calmly. "Hanson, both you and Gregory share the slast name. The Ford Group, managed by either of you, remains within the Ford family. Why create such turmoil?” "You!" Slam! Gregory tossed a file on the table, leaning back¶lazily, one leg casually crossed over the other. His long finger tapped on the table as he coldly surveyed the room. "Well then, let's see who else thinks President Ford should continue managing the Ford Group." Silence.
The director who had fought alongside Hanson fell quiet.
Gregory smirked, watching Hanson's face turn an angry shade of purple. “Let's vote. Those in favor of removing Hanson as chairman, raise your hands." Seconds later, hands went up unanimously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBang! Bang! Bang! Hanson pounded his cane on the floor, glaring at Gregory. "You ungrateful son!" "I should've never let you return to the Ford Group!"
Gregory sneered, "Your biggest mistake was conspiring with Om outsiders, attacking Jane." It was always about that woman.
Hanson was so angry his face twitched, and he fainted.
Gregory gestured, and Lucius called in the security to carry Hanson out.
Gregory stood up, buttoning his suit jacket. "You've all made the right choice, he said as he left, leaving the directors with their grievances, forcing smiles as they saw him off.
As noon approached, Bella hadn't returned from her grandmother's hospital room, and I was getting om anxious. Christine tried to reassureat first, but seeing that I couldn't stop pacing, she eventually gave up talking.
