The Ceo Second Choice Novels & Stories

But Amelia 's response caught her off guard. "I'll take the CEO." Emily blinked in surprise. "You mean that sexy guy over there is the CEO? The one who wants three kids?" Amelia nodded, her eyes still fixed on him. "Yeah, that's him. The one I walked away from."

I will step down but I will continue to serve for the betterment of this company. No Grey will turn its back to responsibilities and its birthright. As I vacate the position of CEO, I assure everyone that I will leave the company to someone more capable than me. Rest assured that your investments will continue to flourish like how Grey Corporation will pave its way towards more success in the future. To make it all happen, I give my recommendation for my two brothers, Carl Vince Grey and Earth Vonn Grey as nominees for the Chief Executive Officer of Grey Corporation" Archer ended while he alternately stared at his brothers who both have unreadable expressions.

It undermines your authority. And Rebecca. God, Rebecca would have a field day. Of course he chose someone from his own company. Someone he has power over. Someone who probably couldn't say no even if she wanted to. This is exactly the kind of poor judgment that proves he shouldn't be CEO. She'd weaponize it. Would use it to suggest I was unfit for leadership. Would paint Kesley as opportunistic or me as predatory or some toxic combination of both. And she wouldn't be entirely wrong.

He looked back with the steady undemanding patience of a man who had learned when to push and when to simply be there. She laughed. Briefly. Genuinely. Then it faded. "She's gone," Elara said. "And it doesn't matter." She traced the rim of her mug with one finger. "Whether she's here or on the other side of the world she'll always have his heart. That doesn't go anywhere just because the person does." She paused. "I will always be the second choice. The convenient one. The girl whose story was plausible." She stopped. Something moved across her face. "He called me greedy."

She wanted to be chosen. “Then tell me the truth,” she said, and the charm in her palm pressed harder, as if it sensed she was about to walk into danger. “If I accept second wife, what happens to me when the heir is born? Does she rule? Does she command? Do I just… stand there and smile while my place shrinks until I can’t breathe?” Rowan’s silence stretched, and in it she heard the soft scrape of someone’s sandals far away, the distant echo of voices from the bonding grounds. No one was near enough to intervene. That made this moment feel privately lethal.

Olivia's POV Ethan walked into the center of the office floor. Everyone looked up from their desks. "Good morning, everyone." His voice was flat and Professional. "I want to introduce our new manager. This is Mara Ashford. She'll be taking over the Meridian project." Whispers erupted in the room. Ashford, the same last name as the CEO.

he said with a quiet chuckle, “I don't think you heard me very well. I wasn't asking for your opinion.” At that moment, I recoiled back as my face dimmed. “Oh, come on, Dad! What do you mean you didn't ask for my opinion?” I whimpered almost rudely. My dad sighed. “I've already made Kevin the new COO, so he's basically second after me, but don't worry, you're still going to be the next CEO.” “No, that's not the point,” I argued as my fist tightened on the table. “This company has survived a long time without a COO, and the last time you travelled, I managed the company for two years.”

Even at its lowest point, Jones Corporation never resorted to any dirty tricks. Sadly, the succession contest had ruined Jones Corporation’s noble standing. “The current CEO of Jones Corporation disregards the company’s reputation for her own desires and ignores the employees’ safety. Now…” Mr. Jones softly said, “Now, Zhenny Jones will be removed from the position of Jones Corporation CEO, and Dillon Jones will be the interim CEO for the time being. Meanwhile, the next heir of Jones Corporation will be Adina Daugherty.”

I leaned back in the chair and looked at Mr Martinez, who was gathering all of the leaves in one spot. "Mr Martinez!" "Yeah?" He asked, working. "In your company, how many floors do you own?" "What?" "Skyland corporation. What is the total number of floors you own in that building?" "Um... the whole thing." "Really? The whole building?" "I am the President and CEO of Skyland Corporation. Did you forget about that?" "I remember, but I didn't realise the CEO could also own the entire building." He nodded and went back to work. "Do your coworkers know you clean your own garden? Don't you think they'll make fun of you if they see you in a gardener outfit?"

That woman had reached the pinnacle of how shameless a person could be. "Get divorced right now! Only Mr. Vane is suitable for the CEO position, not a measly assistant. How can he dare to think of ascending to the CEO position with his lowly fortune? At least, Mr. Vane is a great man who can bring various investments to the company.” Mr. Vane gave a smirk, at least that horrible woman could put in a good word for him. It wouldn't hurt to give her more benefits in the future if she manages to convince the board.
