Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 859

The colleague gave him a thumbs-up. "Wow, incredible. You're about to date the CEO and you're playing it this cool? Respect, man."

Charles couldn't tell if he was being praised or mocked.

But it didn't matter. His blood was singing with adrenaline.

If Lorna was taking over the company, surely she’d create a VP position just for him!

He was about to skyrocket to the top of the corporate ladder.

Lost in his delusions, Charles spent the entire morning daydreaming about his new corner office.

Up on the executive floor, Theresa was commanding her first board meeting.

Once Victor had officially passed the baton, he quietly exited the room to let her establish her dominance.

Walking down the corridor, Victor motioned for Logan to join him in his private office.

"You wanted to see me, Chairman?" Logan asked, shutting the door.

"Logan, please. Drop the titles in private. Call me Victor, or Dad, if you prefer."

Logan shifted slightly, caught off guard.

"Relax, son," Victor chuckled warmly. "I've always viewed you as my own. I brought you in here because we haven't had a chance to really talk. I read the full report on Myantara. The only reason Theresa is alive today is because of you and Elena."

"She survived because she's resilient."

"She’s grown into a formidable woman, and I know your guidance played a massive part in that. Her mind is sharp, and her heart is shielded. That’s the only reason I feel comfortable stepping back and giving her the throne."

Victor paused, pulling out two leather chairs. "My original plan was for the two of you to marry the moment the transition was complete. But looking at her schedule now, I realize a wedding isn't feasible in the short term."

"Victor, there is absolutely no rush," Logan said respectfully. "A marriage should ultimately be Theresa's decision. If she isn't interested—"

"Absolutely not," Victor interrupted, his tone leaving no room for argument. "I will yield to her on business matters, but not this. You are the only man I will ever accept as my son-in-law. This was an arrangement forged between your father and me years ago. I refuse to break that promise, and frankly, I genuinely want you in this family."
