The future of the Phoenix Court matters more than either of us. Her words, righteous and composed, moved more than a few people. Uncertain murmurs rippled through the crowd, and soon the persuasion began. "Princess Althea," one elder said carefully, "your mother, the former crown princess, sacrificed herself to protect us from the demon beasts. Lately, they've grown restless. If we delay in naming a new heir, and our clan leader's strength continues to weaken… If they attack, we'll crumble." "Please," another said, "let the succession ceremony go on. Give it to Princess Seraphine."

he asked slowly. "When I came to the Emperor to look for a job, I heard that the CEO has six special assistants in his staff. I have also learned that these people are extremely powerful in their own right. I hope to become one of them, so I applied for a job in the CEO's office," Cherry explained with conviction. After all, her goal was to get close to him. The CEO's office was the department directly under him, so obviously it was her first choice. "The available vacancy in the CEO's office was only a secretarial position, which is different from the special assistant position. It seems like you have yet to figure out what you want to do." The corners of his mouth lifted into a mocking smi

Jerrica: “Guess who’s in my office right now?” Geena: “Your CEO in shining Armani!” Jerrica: “LOL Good guess! I was just looking over the job offer and I really think you should accept it. Plus it has some employee ‘perks' ;)” Geena: “You are the best friend a girl could ever hope for! I think I will take accept and take advantage of those ‘perks'!” Jerrica: “Wonderful! I will let Jareth know and maybe he’ll get Taylor to bring the paperwork to you.”

Williams. Old Wilson could just imagine Anita's williningness to get things right in her first solo venture, and was not put out by her reaching out to him at all. In fact, he thought that she was smart to seek a second opinion for such a big decision. After all, it was the second highest position in the new company. "I think that your reasoning is sound. But let me ask you this. Since you will be personally working very closely with this person, which of the two do you see yourself most comfortable with. Given that both candidates are equal to each other in every other way, it really comes down to personality. If you think that Ms. Williams would be a better fit in your management team of t

"I know, right? I envied Calvin when he landed the job at Zenith Group, but I never would have guessed that Thomas would end up with the CEO of the company! I mean, no matter how smart Calvin is, he's still just an employee under Thomas' thumb!" It was then that someone yelled, "Calvin has arrived!" In that instant, everyone in the private room turned their attention to me. Their looks held pity, regret, and a definite streak of schadenfreude. Thomas and I had once been the top two talents of Eastlake University's Finance Department. Now, Thomas was poised to become the husband of the CEO of Zenith Group, while I merely became a new hire on their payroll. It was then that one of my close for

Maybe I just got lucky, but in only two years, I was already sitting in the CEO's chair at a major company. I thought it was all because of my ability. I believed I had built everything from nothing and lifted Vivian into a better life along with me. So I proposed. I wanted to spend the rest of my life loving her. In our second year of marriage, she suddenly said she wanted me to meet her parents.

I was supposed to make a speech about my vision for the company, then officially accept my new role as CEO. But there was one more crucial element. One that I had completely forgotten about in all my grief and distraction. The appointment of a Deputy CEO, my second-in-command, the person who would help run the company alongside me and serve as my backup if I were ever unable to perform my duties. In my original timeline, I had given it to Dennis without a second thought. He was family. He has been working in the company for years. He had seemed like the obvious choice. I had announced it right there, in front of everyone, cementing his position as my right hand.

The name slipped out. His gaze snapped to me, sharp. "He’s the obvious choice. Interim CEO. Stands to inherit a significant stake if I’m declared dead." He ran a hand through his hair, messing up the CEO perfection. "But obvious isn’t always right. Sophie’s family has ties to our main competitor. The Board has factions who preferred my father’s… less aggressive strategies." He stopped pacing, pinning me with that storm-grey stare. "It could be anyone in this building, Samantha. Anyone."

“Not yet. He said he needed to talk to the board about it today. They’ve called an emergency meeting this morning, and they are going to see who their second choice was for CEO after me.” “I hope it wasn’t Carson,” Anna jokes, and we both get a laugh despite the uncomfortable situation she’s in. I can’t even imagine Carson in charge of a lemonade stand. This building is taller than the one Young Corporation is housed in, so it takes longer to reach the top floors, even though I think the elevator is moving faster than normal. The prospect of doing this every day, of going to work with Anna, spending the whole day with her, and then going home with her in the evening is perfect. It’s just wha

Around him, board members and key executives exchanged measured glances, some leaning forward in quiet conversation, others sitting rigidly, their expressions unreadable. Micheal sat beside me, his fingers drumming on the table with no doubt apprehension. He was as eager for this to begin as I am. Sitting across from me was the second candidate nominated for the CEO position. Lean and immaculate, his calculating eyes stared at me. Hostility smothered by the present company, he watched me carefully. Kelvin was my cousin, of course. He was the best for the position according to my uncles and his allies. Which we all knew was wrong. The position initially belonged to my father and my uncle was
