Are You Afraid?
Gloria nodded, “I did it with normal procedure, but things went to cousin, she was afraid that if I
screwed up, I might ruin the reputation of the company.”
Ted suddenly snorted coldly, “Your uncle‘s family is getting stronger and stronger.”
Gloria pursed her lips and didn‘t speak, but Nydia said, irritated, “I also think so. Uncle, do you know
what happened on the birthday banquet of Old Mrs. Collins? Angela wanted to thwart Gloria‘s
confidence. She bought so many jade bracelets for her grandmother just because she bought Gloria
had done the same. She wanted to steal Gloria‘s thunder.
“I‘ve heard about that.” Ted nodded, looked at Gloria and whispered, “Don‘t worry, I‘ll take charge of
this matter. Tomorrow I‘ll let the company hold a meeting, and then let you and Angela go there.”
Nydia beamed, “Uncle, are you going to help Gloria get back?”
“Of course.” Ted smiled tenderly, “Although Claude has a strong learning ability, his vision is still not
profound enough. The company can still operate until now totally because of its foundation set by the
forerunners. If you continue to let Claude manage the company, it will only lead to its doom. I was in
this company when it was first started. And I don‘t want my contribution to be ruined by Claude. It‘s not
what I want to see.”
While speaking, Ted gradually looked helpless and solemn. He said, “Besides, Gloria, you are like your
father, I really hope you can take over the company.”
Nydia looked happier, “My God! Uncle, it would be easier for Gloria with your help in the future!”
Gloria was touched and wept a little. She nodded slightly and said, “This company is built with my
father‘s painstaking efforts, and I won‘t let other people trample it.”
“Good!” Ted felt quite relieved. “You are an excellent girl. You can create so many miracles at such a
young age. I trust you. So, can you tell me about this plan in detail?”
Ted seemed to want to know more, but Gloria knew that Ted wanted to test her capability. After all,
what he had to do next was a subversive deed that was quite like gambling. He was afraid that failure
might follow success at a faster speed.
Gloria nodded immediately, “Sure.”
Then, Gloria made a comprehensive explanation about the planning and implementation of the plan, as
well as the promotion of the market, the operation mode, the phased coverage and so on. She talked
for almost an hour, but Ted didn‘t feel tired. Instead, he became more and more excited listening to this.
Nydia looked at Gloria with admiration. Her eyes were full of surprises. God, how is it possible for
Gloria to be so intelligent? How can there be so many marvelous ideas in her head?
As Gloria finished, she said, “This is all I can think of for now, and there may be further improvements.”
Ted was completely shocked, and then he nodded, “Well, very good. You may make some adjustments
by then. Have you talked to Mr. Brown about this? If you could manage to repeat what you‘ve told me,
he may be convinced.”
Gloria smiled awkwardly, “not yet.”
“No wonder he will choose to let you do this. You can get ready and we‘ll have a general conference in
the meeting room at 10 o‘clock tomorrow. Then I will let you two talk and argue with each other openly.
By then, I‘m sure there will be many people who will suppress you in order to defend the Claude‘s
family. Are you afraid of that?“
