Rather Overwhelming


    "What do you mean? You look down on me?" Bryce''s face flushed with anger as he pointed at Jayden and retorted, "I also majored in finance. How can you say Ick business acumen? You''re just jealous of me."


    Jayden stayed quiet, meeting Bryce''s gaze calmly.


    Feeling the weight of Jayden''s stare, Bryce''s anger ebbed away, leaving behind a flicker of guilt. "So, just because you majored in finance, you think you''re ready to run thepany?" Jayden quipped with a hint of sarcasm.


    Annoyed, Bryce snapped back, "I can do everything you can. Mom believes I''m now our family''s beacon of hope. As for you, you''re just a has been with no chance against me!"


    With a newfound assurance, Bryce rxed and said condescendingly. "Once I''m in charge, I''ll


    make sure you have a job here. Am I not a generous brother?"


    Jayden couldn''t help


    but be amused by such naive confidence.


    Bryce couldn''t even deal with the director of the design department


    "You are really hopeless," Jayden sighed.


    Bryce was taken aback by Jayden''s bluntness.


    Just as Bryce''s temper neared its peak, the door swung open.


    In walked Brook''s assistant, who addressed Jayden with a pompous tone. "I''m Mr. Brook Owen''s


    assistant. There''s a meeting to review the first half of the year. Mr. Owen would like you to join them and sit in."


    Jayden''s response was devoid of emotion. "I''ve been away from thepany for a year. Its business is no longer my concern."

    The assistant stepped aside, but as Bryce attempted to follow, he blocked the way.


    Frustration colored Bryce''s face. "Why am I being barred? I''m family too!"


    With a haughty lift of his head, the assistant retorted, "You weren''t invited. This meeting is not for

    everyone."


    Bryce, a mere design department employee, was clearly out of his depth.


    Realizing he wasn''t taken seriously within thepany, Bryce felt a surge of ambition to prove his worth.


    Jayden reached the executive meeting room on the eighth floor, where some employees outside greeted him enthusiastically. "Mr. Owen? You''re back at thepany?"


    Jayden replied with a shake of his head, "No, I''m just here to take a look."


    The employees exchanged nces before opening the door for Jayden.


    As he entered, the executives in the room reacted with noticeable surprise.


    Those who had previous disagreements with Jayden were visibly restless, while others who didn''t recognize him scrutinized him closely.


    Brook took a moment to survey the room before inviting Jayden to join. "Jayden, we''re reviewing the overseas business department''s report Please, have a seat."


    Jayden epted the invitation and moved closer to the action

    Jayden interjected, "No, it''s 215.31%."


    The director, caught off guard, echoed, "215.31%?"

    Jayden, maintaining a stern demeanor, pressed further, "Even with sufficient cash flow, shouldn''t you approach such a significant acquisition with greater diligence? Your n seems too vague. How realistic are our chances of achieving these ambitious goals within a few years? If you aim to really impress the staff, I suggest you draft a moreprehensive strategy." <
