Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Wesley patted Catherine’s head. “Go and get ready for Yule Corporation’s 30th-anniversary celebration
tonight.”
…
Pavilion Intercontinental Hotel.
A grand celebration was underway.
Too many things had happened to the Yule family over the past few years.
Three years ago, Joel suddenly woke up from a coma, after which he insisted on divorcing Nicola, but
she objected to the idea. Later, the terms of their divorce were determined by the court. Even so, they
were still responsible for their daughter, Melanie.
Since Melanie married Charlie, her status had improved significantly. Not only did she become the Vice
Director of Yule Corporation, but she had also developed an electronics company in collaboration with
Campos Corporation. It was believed that the Yule Corporation was worth over six trillion dollars.
This day marked the 30th year since Yule Corporation was established, so the company held the
grandest celebration ever. It was attended by the most brilliant celebrities and wealthiest families in the
business industry across Australia.
In the banquet hall.
After serving a few guests, Joel turned around to find Damien surrounded by tall and influential figures.
A complicated feeling washed over him.
Since Joel regained consciousness three years ago, many things seemed to have changed.
Catherine had committed suicide, and Damien had become the new president of Yule Corporation
despite his low self-esteem. The Damien he knew today was a completely different person. He was high-
spirited and full of strategies even though he had to rely on a wheelchair. He had also fired many of
Joel’s trusted subordinates.
However, Joel turned a blind eye to the situation when he considered that Damien was his biological
brother and that the latter was dedicated to nurturing Melanie.
Fortunately, Melanie was sensible and diligent throughout these years.
Nevertheless, Joel could not resist feeling guilty about owing Catherine too much whenever he saw
Melanie.
“You’re here, Joel.” Nicola approached him and said concernedly, “When are you planning to announce
that Melanie’s officially the CEO of the company and her joint venture with Campos Corporation?
A hint of hatred flashed across Joel’s eyes. “Who let you in?”
“Hey, why can’t I come? I’m Melanie’s biological mom,” Nicola replied arrogantly. “Look how capable our
daughter is. After so many years, are you still worried about letting her manage Yule Corporation?”
Joel could not be bothered about her. The sight of her made him feel like puking.
“Hi, Sister-in-law and Brother.” Damien smiled as he approached them in a wheelchair.
“I’ve told you many times that she’s no longer your sister-in-law,” Joel warned him with a deep voice.
“I know, I know. It was a slip of the tongue,” Damien said and chuckled. “Brother, seeing how well
Melanie’s doing today reminds me that I’m really old. Now is the time for the younger people to shine.
Some guests have been praising you for having such an outstanding daughter and what a blessing she
is for you.”
Joel nodded. “Indeed, Melanie has done quite well over the past two years. She’s capable of being the
CEO. I’ll announce the news on stage later.”
“Brother, I’m afraid that it’s hard to convince the public of Melanie’s position as the CEO since she
doesn’t have any shares,” Damien said with a low voice. “I heard some of the shareholders aren’t happy
with it. After all, I’m the president, and the CEO is someone from our family.”
Joel threw him a strange glance. “Damien, if I transfer my shares to Melanie, it’ll confirm that she’ll be in
charge of Yule Corporation’s future. Are you ready to assist her?”
“Brother, you’re my biological brother. You’ve been looking after me since I was young, so of course, I
won’t mind doing it. What’s more, I have no children. I’ve always treated Melanie as my daughter.”
Damien smiled faintly. “I’ll do my best to assist her so that Yule Corporation can go a long way.”
