Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

Chapter: 494
ALL the directors fell silent, turning their attention to him.
“It has been five years since I assumed the presidency of Blakely Group. The time has flown by swiftly. I won’t claim that I’ve
poured my entire heart and soul into the company, but I did strive to live up to my grandfather’s expectations and ensure the
company thrived under my leadership.
Throughout my time in office, I trust that you have come to grasp my character well. I’m not inclined to compromise easily or be
influenced by public opinion. I firmly believe that a leader must be capable of navigating complex situations, have a keen eye to
discern prevailing trends, and have the courage and decisiveness to make crucial decisions. Intelligence plays a crucial role in
guiding the company’s progress. Three essential keys drive the company’s development: innovative strategy, intelligence, and
talent. Both product and business model innovations play pivotal roles in our growth and success!
However, given your presence here today, it’s evident that you hold different perspectives. In light of that, I won’t impose my
ideas on you. Since our visions diverge, there’s no need for us to collaborate any longer. Therefore, I’ve decided to step down
from my role as CEO and general manager of Blakely Group, effective immediately.
Despite any challenges we may have faced, I want to express my gratitude for your support and trust in my work over the past
few years. As I approach my thirtieth year, I’m excited to embrace fatherhood as my wife and I are expecting. I aim to spend
more time with her during this significant time in our lives.”
The board members displayed various expressions on their faces.
A few seconds of silence filled the room, then one of the directors spoke up.
“I believe we’re all well aware of the significance the CEO position holds for Blakely Group. Mr. Blakely, there’s no need to rush
your decision. I suggest we put this matter to a vote.”
“There’s no need,” Tyrone said, standing up from his chair. “I have already submitted my written resignation to the board of
directors via email. I kindly request that you all approve it as soon as possible.
Once the new president is chosen, I will conduct the handover in accordance with the company’s constitution.”
What transpired during today’s board of directors meeting was as Tyrone had anticipated.

Tyrone took advantage of the current situation and resigned on his terms, which shocked everyone.
Certain directors hadn’t expected things to proceed so seamlessly.
For others, it came as a complete and unexpected shock that the CEO of Blakely Group was going to change, leaving them
concerned about their future interests.
“As for the selection of the new president, it will need to be deliberated amongst yourselves. However, I believe you’ve already
decided on a suitable candidate. I wish you all the best.”
Tyrone then turned on his heels and left the meeting room.
The rest exchanged dismayed looks, unsure of how to react.
Harrell struck while the iron was still hot. Seizing the moment, he said, “It’s not wise for the company to be without a CEO. We
must expedite the selection process to get the company back on track. I propose Larry Blakely as the new president and general
manager of Blakely Group. He possesses the necessary experience and skills to lead the company to success.”
As Tyrone left the meeting, he stopped and gazed steadily at Larry, who was walking with Theo.
Tyrone wasn’t surprised to see the two of them together.
“Congratulations, Larry,” he said with a nod.
“Tyrone.”
The two exchanged a glance of tacit understanding.
Instead of offering an explanation, Larry greeted Tyrone with a wry smile before confidently striding past him.
