Chapter 3

Over the years, Briela had been spoiled by Lauryn and Bryan, becoming arrogant and domineering, with no knowledge or skills.

With her level of ability, she did not even have the qualification to intern at my company.

But I did not say it directly, instead I said seriously, "How can being a general manager be enough? She is my only daughter and she should take over everything from me."

"I have already planned everything. I will send Briela abroad for further studies first."

"When she returns from studying abroad, I will fully entrust the company to her."

Hearing me say this, Lauryn's eyes lit up instantly. She laughed heartily and said, "Yes, yes, yes, Briela is such an outstanding girl, she should be a high and mighty female CEO."

"I've said it before, Briela is born to be rich and noble, much better than that short-lived daughter in my family!"

Bryan and his daughter nodded with great joy, their faces full of smiles.

Looking at the three of them laughing proudly, I also laughed.

They laughed at me for being too foolish, while I laughed at them for being too naive.

During the process of applying for study abroad, I took Briela to the company every day.

I taught her to familiarize herself with the company's business without reservation.

On the day of going abroad.

Lauryn came specially.

She brought a bunch of things for Briela, fearing that she would not have a good time living alone in a foreign country.

Along the way, she kept reminding her daughter.

The picture was warm and touching, truly showing a mother concern for her daughter who would travel thousands of miles away.

After her daughter boarded the plane, Lauryn kept watching the plane until it disappeared high into the sky.

She left with tears in her eyes, reluctant to part.

After Briela went abroad, Lauryn came to my house less frequently.

But Bryan went out more and more frequently.

Every time I came back, I felt like I was hollowed out.

Whenever I asked him, he would either say he was going to a gathering with his buddies.

Or maybe he signed up for a fitness class to maintain his figure.

When he could not find an excuse, he would pretend to be sad and sigh.

"I raised Briela alone and she has never left me. I couldn't help but miss her after being abroad for such a long time."

"If I don't find something to do, I'll fall apart."

I ignored the scent of Lauryn's freesia perfume and pretended to comfort him.

"Briela will be back soon and then our family can be reunited again."

Bryan smiled faintly and said meaningfully, "Yes, soon our family of three will be reunited."

Three years later, Briela returned from studying abroad.

Lauryn whom I had not seen for a long time came to my house early in the morning, just like she used to and accompanied Bryan and me to pick Briela up at the airport.

The moment she saw her daughter, Lauryn could not control her emotions. She rushed forward and hugged her daughter tightly in her arms with tears in her eyes.

After the two of them expressed their longing for each other, Briela walked straight towards me and said straight to the point, "Mom, I'm back."

"When will you let me take care of your company?"

Looking at her impatient expression, I gave a faint smile.

"Let's go, I've already held a press conference."

"Right now, I will entrust everything to you in front of everyone."

The press conference venue was overcrowded.

All the media reporters and celebrity businessmen gathered here.

Just to see the change of ownership of the business giant Renner Group.

With all eyes on me, I announced that my daughter would take over my position as president of Renner Group.

And under the witness of lawyers and interview cameras, the equity transfer agreement was signed.

I transferred all of my assets and company shares to my daughter's name.

For a moment, applause was thunderous and emotions were boiling among the crowd.

Many people were lamenting the deep love between us mother and daughter.

The look they gave my daughter was full of envy.
