Chapter 8

Author: Yes to Tacos
Mom took me into the planning department office.

It was a completely different place now. The desks were empty, and the newly assigned director and employees were busy handing over tasks.

As soon as the new director saw us, he stood up to greet us.

Mom didn't acknowledge him. Instead, she led me to my old desk.

The small succulent I'd been taking care of was still on the desk, and the files were spread out, as if I had just left yesterday.

"Fabian, from today on, you don't need to sit here

    "Forgive you?" I said softly, my voice calm."That's God's business. My job is to send you to Him. Enjoy your 15-year stay there. Hopefully, you'll learn the basics of being a decent human being."With that, I gave him no chance to reply and hung up.I wouldn't forgive him. Not now, not ever.After dealing with Davin, I finally felt a weight lift off my chest.Mom seemed intent on grooming me. She gradually handed over the core operations of the company.I attended important business meetings with her, meeting top people from every industry.My perspective widened, and my abilities grew faster than I ever imagined.A year later, under Mom's guidance, I was promoted to deputy CEO, officially joining the company's core management team.Once I officially took over the planning department, the first thing I did was announce this year's Thanksgiving benefits.I didn't bother with an either-or vote. Instead, I sent a notice straight to the department group chat."Everyone, this ye

"That spot is yours. You're the new planning department director."I was stunned. "Mom, I—"She interrupted me with a firm gaze. "Don't doubt yourself. You have more than enough competence to be the director. Before, I wanted you to experience life as an ordinary person to build your character. But now I see that being too humble only makes the wicked think you're weak and easy to bully."From now on, you're my son and the heir to Lester Gr

    Bruce opened a screenshot of a private chat between Clark and Davin.Clark: "Fabian is getting more and more disrespectful just because he has a bit of talent. How dare he oppose my plan in front of everyone like that?"Davin: "Don't be mad, Mr. Rackham. People like him just think too highly of themselves. Leave it to me. I have a way to make him fall in line."Clark: "Oh? What's your plan? Don't cause me any trouble."Davin: "Don't worry. I just want to use this Thanksgiving incident to cut him down a notch. Let him know that you won't get far if you don't fit in with the team."Clark: "Alright. Make it clean. Once it's done, I'll approve your permanent position."Everything became crystal clear."Well, very well." Mom smiled coldly and slammed the tablet down on the table."Bruce, call the police. Charge them with intentional harm and attempted murder. Give all the evidence to the police. Also, inform the legal department to prepare a lawsuit. Anyone involved in this won't ge

    "You're lying!" Davin screamed, throwing himself at Ryan like a maniac."How dare you make things up? I won't let you get away with this!"The bodyguards immediately stepped in, holding him down.Seeing this, Clark knew he could no longer hide the truth. He immediately shifted his stance and pointed at Davin, shouting fiercely, "Ms. Lester! It's him! It's this evil bastard! He's been instigating us the whole time!"He's the one who forced Mr. Lester to eat the tart! I was just deceived by him! I didn't know anything!""Clark, you're slandering me!" Davin, still pinned to the ground, fought back defiantly."It was you! You're the one who hated Fabian for being defiant and always crossing you! You told me to find a chance to teach him a lesson! You promised that if I did it well, I'd be made permanent! You gave me the green light to do it!""You're lying!" Clark retorted.The two of them started yelling at each other, like dogs fighting in front of everyone.Mom coldly watched t

    Behind my mom was a team of doctors and nurses in white coats, carrying emergency kits, moving quickly. And behind them were several black-clad bodyguards, faces cold and alert.The entire department, including Clark, stood there stunned, staring blankly at the uninvited guests."M-Ms. Lester?" Clark instantly sobered up. He wondered why Madelyn Lester, the company's elusive chairwoman who only ever appeared at annual dinners, was here. Clark stammered, voice shaking. "What brings you here?"My mom ignored him completely. Her gaze swept across the room like a radar until it landed on me, curled up on the floor, face turning blue. For the first time, panic and fury flashed across her usually composed face. "Fabian!" She darted forward, lifting me carefully into her arms. "I'm here. Don't be afraid. Mom's here!"Madelyn's words hit the room like a bomb. The entire hall erupted. Clark's mouth hung open, and the color quickly drained from his face. Davin's smug expression froze s

    I felt the air in my lungs growing thinner by the second. Each breath felt like I was inhaling shards of burning glass.No. I couldn't die here!Clinging to my last survival instinct, I used the remaining strength in my body to fumble my phone out of my pocket. My fingers trembled from lack of oxygen, but relying on muscle memory, I hit the contact shortcut I knew by heart, then typed out the message, "Mom, help me. I'm having an allergic reaction. I'm at the Harroway Hotel, third floor, Peony Hall…"The moment I hit send, the phone slipped from my weakening grip. At that moment, a sharp pain shot through my calf.Davin had stomped on me with his leather shoe. "Hey! Don't play dead. Everyone, look. He's really getting into character now. He's even twitching! Should I call him an ambulance? Maybe add some dramatic lighting too?"The crowd erupted in even louder and more unrestrained laughter."Davin, you're terrible! He's acting. Don't ruin his performance!""I bet he's just tryi
