Chapter 66 The Davis Family's Conspiracy
At this moment, at the Twin Group.
John looked at the young man in front of him and found the latter increasingly satisfactory.
This young man, who was in his early twenties, was dressed in a light gray casual suit. He looked very handsome and impressive. He was also very fashionable and seemed to have studied abroad for a long time.
This young man was none other than John's grandson, Hilda Davis.
Hilda had been studying in North America since childhood, attending an Ivy League school and receiving a top-notch elite education. John had invested various resources in him. Hilda was very capable. In his early twenties, he had already earned a PhD in economics and was proficient in eighteen languages, making him exceptionally outstanding.
Coincidentally, Hilda had returned to the country this time, and John had arranged for Hilda to join the Twin Group, preparing to have Hilda take over his position.
But now John had even bigger ambitions!
John wanted to be the chairman!
And he wanted to pass the chairman position to Hilda!
He wanted the Davis family to fully take over the Twin Group!
"Hilda, you received an excellent elite education at an Ivy League school since you were a child. I've always seen your excellence and brilliance," John said, "You are far superior to Skyview!"
Hilda arrogantly said, "Skyview is not an outstanding person, just a mere lucky guy. Although he studied at Maplebrook Institute of Technology for two years, he didn't even get a diploma, ending up delivering packages! If Chairman Dylan hadn't named him as the successor, his monthly salary wouldn't even be enough for me to buy a drink!"
As Hilda spoke, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, barely noticeable.
"If he were a successor personally trained by Dylan, I would naturally have nothing to say and would assist him wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, he's just some guy from nowhere. He's taken such a big advantage, and I can't stand it!" John said, "I worked hard with Dylan to start this business, putting in countless efforts to get to where we are today. I won't allow an ignorant young man to take the chairman's position."
"Grandpa, you're absolutely right. Skyview is not fit to be the chairman of the Twin Group. The chairman's position should be yours!" Hilda firmly supported John's ambition.
Although John had many grandsons, the one he valued the most had always been Hilda.
And John was already very old. Even if he became the chairman, he wouldn't hold the position for many years!
By then, the chairman position of the Twin Group would be Hilda's.
As for John's sons, none of them were capable enough to be competitive.
"Now, the opportunity has come! Do you know why Skyview can temporarily hold his position?" John asked.
"No, I don't," Hilda replied.
John said, "Skyview can temporarily hold his position for two reasons. One is that the board members still have some expectations of him. The other is that Hekka strongly supports Skyview against all opposition."
"Recently, he has made a mess of Lakeview Express, so there's nothing worth expecting!" Hilda sneered.
John also smiled smugly. "Exactly. Speaking of which, I had a hand in that. Lakeview Express is his first performance. If he messes it up, he will lose a lot of the support of the board members. Skyview is very arrogant. He even signed a bet with me, saying he would turn around the current situation of Lakeview Express within a week, or he would resign as chairman! I think he's bound to lose!"
Hilda said coldly, "Of course, he's bound to lose. Given Lakeview Express's current situation, I couldn't even turn it around in a week, maybe a month. Skyview is so arrogant. He must have lost his mind."
John sighed, "Unfortunately, even if I win this bet, it may not necessarily make Skyview give up the chairman position. At most, it will make his already shaky position even shakier!"
Hilda asked in surprise, "Why?"
John said, "Because of Hekka!"
"Hekka?" Hilda was surprised. "What great ability does this woman have?"
John said, "Hekka is very shrewd, and more importantly, she holds Dylan's will. She is the key support for Skyview. To deal with Skyview, it's not enough to just deal with him. We must cut the problem at its root and get rid of Hekka!"
"Do you mean... kill her?" Hilda said, making a throat-slitting gesture.
John shook his head. "You've been abroad too long. You don't know that our country is a harmonious society. Killing is the last resort, and it may not be very effective but has significant repercussions. If we don't have absolute certainty, we can't easily resort to it. Moreover, Hekka's social connections are very complex and not easy to deal with."
Hilda was puzzled. "Then how should we deal with her?"
John said in a deep voice, "I want you to seek her affection."
Hilda was shocked. "You want me to pursue her?"
"Exactly!" John said, "Women can be blinded by love. Besides, you are an elite in both appearance and talent. As long as you win Hekka over and make her part of the Davis family, the Davis family can firmly control the Twin Group, and Skyview will have no chance to turn the tables!"
Hilda immediately understood. This was indeed a strategy to cut the problem at its root. If Hekka became his woman, Skyview would lose his biggest supporter in the Twin Group, and by then, Skyview would be insignificant!
Moreover, Hekka did not lack in looks and talent. Although Hilda was proud and considered himself an elite, he didn't think Hekka was unworthy of him.
As Hilda thought of Hekka's charming face, his heart even fluttered slightly.
John was sophisticated. As he saw Hilda's expression, he knew Hilda was tempted.
"Your skills in wooing women should be good, right?" John asked.
"You bet!" Hilda said confidently, "Winning her heart is a piece of cake for me!"
John nodded. "That's good. But always remember one thing: you are just using Hekka. Never forget your original intention and be swayed by a woman! Understand?"
"Understood!" Hilda said sinisterly, "I will make good use of this woman!"
