Chapter 594
“Byrum, you know I didn’t mean it that way.
It’s just this girl…”
“What do you mean?”
Byrum cut him off, piercing him with his steely gaze.
“Has she made a mistake some way? Or did her choices somehow harm your personal interests? Tell me!”
Dexter’s expression shifted in an instant, yet he refrained from clashing with Byrum.
Instead, he quipped, “What personal interests do us minor shareholders really have in all this?”
Byrum’s eyes moved frostily over everyone gathered, declaring, “Hannah Moore will officially take on the role of Chairman for White Group!”
Caught off guard, Hannah stood next to him, momentarily at a loss for words.
“Anyone who challenges her authority in the future is challenging my judgment !”
Byrum’s icy tone filled the room, effectively muting all present.
Even Dexter, with his sour demeanor, chose not to further contest the matter.
The meeting wrapped up without a hitch.
Jalen guided Byrum from the conference room.
Walking quietly beside the two men was Hannah.
Out of nowhere, Byrum said, “I’m aware of recent events.
Make time to visit home.
The younger generation of the White family has numerous misconceptions about you.

“Unhappy with your role at White Group, are you?”

Seated in his wheelchair, Byrum observed Hannah and said, “The past is gone.
Your mother is no longer with us.
Do you still harbor resentment towards me?”
“Grandpa, if she truly resented you, why would she assist the White family during our darkest hour?” Jalen interjected on Hannah’s behalf.
“Before Hannah’s arrival, the company was in disarray.
Uncle Bryan… well, he never took an interest in corporate affairs.
I’m not suited for it, as you know.
”
Byrum lifted his hand.
“Fine, I get your point.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
”
Then, turning to Hannah, he added, “You should consider moving back to the ancestral house.
It’s your home, after all.
”
Hannah gave a gentle shake of her head.
“Thank you, Grandpa.
But I’ve made a home in Hoijery and I’m used to my independent lifestyle.
”
Though Byrum had been out of commission for a while, he’d learned from Jalen about her relationship with Bryson upon regaining consciousness.
