Chapter 784: You Take the Position

~ At Heavenly Star Enterprise ~

At around 5:00 pm, Grandpa Lu summoned Tristan and Andrew to his office. He had something important to discuss with them.

Andrew just dropped by. After talking to Grandpa Lu, he would return to Sy Corp to fetch Alveena. He was still working there as Alveena's assistant. He was a great support to Alveena as he was teaching her how to manage the finance department.

Tristan was also planning to take a break as he was preparing for his proposal to Zhen-Zhen. He would also mention this to Grandpa Lu today.

Tristan and Andrew looked tense as they saw the serious expression on Grandpa Lu's face.

"Grandpa? Are you going to scold us? It's been so long since the last time I saw this kind of expression from you." Tristan said it jokingly as he was trying to lighten the mood.

But his statement was true. Grandpa Lu was no longer grumpy. They didn't fight more often, unlike before. He has been very cheerful and lively every day ever since Zhen-Zhen got pregnant.

Grandpa Lu was really excited and looking forward to seeing his great-grandchild. Both Andrew and Tristan were so happy that Grandpa Lu was staying healthy.

He became more conscious about his health. It seemed that his great-grandchildren were his motivation to stay healthy. He wanted to live longer to take care of those little Davis.

Grandpa Lu cleared his throat, raising an eyebrow because of Tristan's last remarks. Tristan and Andrew straightened themselves on their respective seats, sealing their lips to stay quiet.

Seeing the uncomfortable and anxious expression of his grandsons, Grandpa Lu suddenly burst out laughing. 

Andrew and Tristan exchanged glances with one another. There was a look of confusion in their eyes. They didn't know why Grandpa Lu was laughing at them.

"Both of you, can you relax? I'm not going to eat you."

The two brothers heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that. It seemed that their grandfather was just playing a prank on them when he pretended to look strict and serious.

"Grandpa, you got us there!" Andrew said, smiling broadly.

Tristan could only shake his head. He thought his grandfather could become the best actor.

"By the way, Grandpa, why did you summon us? We can even talk at the mansion," Tristan spoke up.

"Well, once we are at home, I don't want to talk about work. It's family time. We should stick to that. Let's only discuss work-related matters in the company."

Andrew and Tristan nodded their heads. They had to agree with Grandpa Lu. Once at home, it should be family time. They should relax and enjoy their loved ones' company and not spoil it by talking about work.

"Grandpa, you know us very well! That's what we wanted. I only want to devote my time to my wife once at home!" Tristan said cheerfully.

Andrew also smiled as he couldn't agree more with Tristan. He just loved every moment with Alveena. They were both doing fine. They were able to overcome the kidnapping incident.

"Ok, let's proceed to the main topic. I called you here because I want to personally inform you that I am retiring as the Chairman of Heavenly Star Enterprise."

Andrew was surprised because this was the first time he heard about this, unlike Tristan. Grandpa Lu already mentioned his plan to Tristan during dinner in the Davis Family Mansion.

"Sigh, it seems that I can't stop you, grandpa." Tristan was hesitating to accept the Chairman's position as he also wanted to focus on Zhen-Zhen and the twins.

Grandpa Lu just squinted his eyes at him before he continued speaking.

"I want Tristan to take over my position, why you, Andrew, will become the CEO. I hope you are both okay with this set-up."

Tristan immediately turned to brother, Andrew, putting on a puppy eye look. "Brother, do you want to exchange responsibility? I can stay as CEO, you take Grandpa's position."

Andrew glanced at Tristan with disbelief. He was not confident to become Chairman yet of the company. Compared to them, Tristan was more suitable for the position.

"No! I refuse," Andrew blatantly rejected Tristan's suggestion.

"Brother, please! I'm going to be a father soon of two beautiful kiddos. I will become busy. Take it for me. Please." Tristan continued bugging Andrew as if Grandpa Lu was not there listening to them.

"Brother, I can't. Alveena and I are also planning to catch up with you." Then Andrew turned to Grandpa Lu. "Grandpa, you would love us to have a great-grandchild from Alveena and me, right?"

Grandpa Lu chuckled before nodding his head. Of course, he would love it.

"See, grandpa also wishes us to have a baby soon. Hmm."

Tristan crumpled his face as Andrew didn't want to grant his request.

"Brother, you want to take the CEO position from me before right? Now, just take the Chairman position. It is higher! Your son and daughter will be proud of you, Alveena as well!" Tristan still tried to convince him.

But Andrew was firm with his decision. The Chairman position might take away a lot of time from him. He didn't want that. He also wanted to spend more time with Alveena.

"No, Brother. My decision is final. Now I can take your CEO position. I'm not aiming for the Chairman position."

Grandpa Lu tried to hold his laughter. He was so happy to see how his two grandsons didn't care about power and material things. They wanted to focus on their respective family.

Just several months ago, there was ongoing rivalry between these two brothers. Even the company was divided into two factions, one supporting Tristan while the other one supporting Andrew.

Now, they wanted to give up those positions. Grandpa Lu was very glad and grateful.

'Cassandra, my wife… our two grandsons are getting along really well. I love to see how they bond together and treat each other as brothers and friends. I know you are also happy to see them like this.'

Tristan was still trying to convince Andrew when suddenly Andrew's ringtone echoed inside the room. Someone was calling him from the Sy Corp.

He stood up and excused himself to answer the phone first. Only 20 seconds had passed when Andrew came back inside, looking so troubled.

"Grandpa, Brother, I'm sorry. I have to go. Something happened to Alveena!"
