Chapter 14 The New CEO

The next morning, a shocking piece of news spread across Southlake City.

An anonymous billionaire had bought over Southlake Corporation, the largest enterprise in the city, with 30 million dollars. The purchase had taken place overnight.

The company now had a new CEO. The former CEO declared his resignation, and his successor would be

a competent young man.

The news spread like wildfire.

Even the older citizens, who were out early for breakfast, were talking about it.

Every elite family in the city held urgent meetings.

They exchanged information and were wondering who could’ve bought over Southlake Corporation with

such a huge amount of money.

Waking up in Willow’s villa, Caspian received a message from Sylvia.

She said he could now take over as the CEO of Southlake Corporation.

He wasn’t in a rush to do so. After getting out of bed, he considerately prepared a delicious breakfast.

Then, he waited for Willow to wake up and have breakfast together.

Willow was exhausted last night. She woke up later than she usually did.

“I’ll go to a wedding planner in a while. Come with me,” she said as she ate her breakfast.

“I’ll handle our wedding arrangements. I told you-you’ll be the happiest bride in the city!” he said.

coquettishly.

“Honey, you can go to the office if you want to. Or you can rest at home if you like. Don’t worry about the

wedding.

“Also, I’m not going to work today. I have something else to attend to. I’ll take my leave.” After he finished speaking, he pecked her on her forehead and left.
