Isabella lacked the courage to be alone with Harold.

She and her parents decided to extend their stay at her granny's house for another week to accompany her grandparents.

Harold, on the other hand, headed back to Dellmoor for work. He vowed to teach Bradley and his son a lesson before Isabella returned.

At a transit hub in Dellmoor, Harold gave Craig a call. He asked solemnly, “Craig, how's the preparation going with what I instructed you to do?”

“Everything is ready, Mr. Campbell! All that's left is your order to proceed!” Craig's excited voice sounded through the phone.

“Very well! Bring the man over to the Turner residence right now. Since they have the audacity to make their move, they must pay the price for it!” As soon as Harold finished speaking, he hung up the phone. He then hailed a cab and made his way toward the Turner residence.

Later that night, at ten o'clock, Bradley's and Brandon's families were having dinner with Edward in the Turner residence dining room.

The Chanaeans always had the habit of talking about work at the dinner table. During the meal, Bradley put forth a proposition to Edward in a probing manner. “Dad, Isabella hasn't contacted us for more than two weeks, and we have no idea how she is right now. We shouldn't allow the position of deputy CEO to remain unoccupied. I believe we should find a temporary replacement for Isabella's position.”

Edward placed the utensils in his hands down on his plate and stared at his eldest son. He kept his composure as he asked, “Do you have a good candidate?”

“It is my opinion that we should give the youths their chance. This position is most suitable for Harman and Harvey to hone their capabilities. I believe it's best to choose one of the two of them. What do you think, Brandon?” Bradley asked, turning toward Brandon.

Bradley had laid out his plans perfectly by dragging Brandon's son, Harman, into the equation.

He had set it up such that it would be up to Edward to make the decision. Should that happen, Brandon could not possibly intervene.

Furthermore, Bradley was convinced that his son, Harvey, was much more capable than Brandon's son, Harman. He had no doubt that Edward would ultimately pick Harvey.

“I think Bradley's decision sounds good!” Brandon was fully aware that the proposition was but one of Bradley's tricks. Nevertheless, he had no choice but to go along with it despite the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Back when Bradley was the CEO, Brandon was in charge of the finance department, while Benson's daughter, Isabella, was the deputy CEO.

The three families had been keeping each other in check.

However, the circumstances had taken a turn for the worse. Should Harvey obtain the position of deputy CEO, most of Turner Corporation would be in the hands of Bradley's family.

The thought of that alarmed Brandon.

Edward shot a glance at the two brothers. Then, as expected, he announced, “If you brothers have no other opinions, then I declare that Harvey should take on the temporary role of deputy CEO!” With that, he set down his utensils and got ready to leave the dining room.
