Chapter 271: Chapter 271: The Successor
Isabella Weaver broke into a smile amidst her tears, softly saying, "He really treats me well."
The atmosphere instantly relaxed, as Johan Niles arranged for Shiely Morrison’s hospital transfer, while Director Valley stepped forward to perform a preliminary checkup on her.
Only Harry Hunter stood there feeling a bit chilly.
By around seven in the evening, Shiely Morrison had already been transferred to Valley Hospital.
Secretary Clarke had arrived, accompanied by several high-ranking executives from Moonlight Jewelry, who brought flowers and fruit baskets to visit her.
What puzzled everyone was the presence of Isabella Weaver by the side of their president, with no trace of Cherry Lewis to be seen.
The president was evidently in a good mood, chatting a bit with everyone.
"Given the state of my health, I can no longer oversee the company as a whole. Since everyone is here today, I formally announce my retirement."
Samuel Shaw and others had long anticipated this, but who would take over after her retirement?
"President, who will be your successor?"
"Isabella Weaver!"
All eyes instantly fell upon Isabella Weaver.
Isabella’s expression remained unchanged, her tone sincere, "Please guide me, seniors. I’m young and lack experience, but I’m diligent and eager to learn with a great passion for the design industry. I ask teachers to mentor this newcomer!"
Samuel Shaw, hearing her humility, laughed heartily, "Good, good, she’s a promising talent! I was worried you wouldn’t join Moonlight, but here you are! Otherwise, my argument with Cherry Lewis would have been for nothing!"
Isabella was somewhat surprised, "You argued with Cherry Lewis?"
Another executive also laughed, "You might not know this, Deputy President Shaw insisted on selecting you as the design competition champion due to your unique design concepts, while Cherry Lewis disagreed and placed you tenth. Deputy President Shaw is quite stubborn and directly phoned the president, who personally decided you were the champion! But Deputy President Shaw also played a vital role, you must thank him properly!"
Isabella was shocked, unaware of so many happenings behind the scenes.
Feeling deeply grateful, she spoke with some excitement in her tone, "Thank you for your appreciation, Deputy President Shaw! I will certainly work even harder in the future and not disappoint you!"
Samuel Shaw laughed warmly, showcasing none of the seriousness he had when facing Cherry Lewis, "Your talent is incredible. If we at Moonlight don’t recruit you, other jewelry companies surely would. Your championship title is well-deserved!"
He liked humble kids; Isabella Weaver and Cherry Lewis were utterly different personalities. Cherry Lewis, upon being appointed as acting president, immediately did several things to showcase her authority. Isabella Weaver was already a champion, but Cherry Lewis had to vote again, causing a chaotic situation.
Moonlight Jewelry internally even split into two factions, competing and vying for power, neglecting jewelry business, which severely depleted the company’s vitality in just a month.
It’s still Isabella Weaver who genuinely acts for the business’s future.
The president’s foremost reason for appointing Cherry Lewis might have been her background, yet now, Isabella Weaver’s background is by no means inferior—Harry Hunter’s recent popularity surge, alongside his image of loving devotion, deeply resonates with people. With the Hunter Family’s support, Moonlight’s development seems inevitable!
Moonlight Jewelry surpassing Weaver Clan Group is just around the corner!
After a chat, the group dispersed, leaving Shiely Morrison completely exhausted, asleep in bed.
Isabella stayed by the bedside, fearing that she might never wake again, keeping a constant vigil.
Harry Hunter stayed beside her, softly comforting, "Director Valley said her condition has stabilized; she’s just tired and will wake up tomorrow. You should rest a bit."
