Chapter 1717
Following behind Griffon, Holden suddenly stopped after a
few steps and looked at Emelyn sitting in the car.
“If I don’t come back, find someone else to mate.”
Emelyn’s heart skipped a beat as she stared blankly at Holden’s retreating figure.
She had a secret crush on him, but never spoke a word about
1. it.
Holden had always been emotionally distant and clueless
when it came to love. He had no idea about her feelings for
him.
But the words he just said seemed to reveal that he knew she
was in love with him, silently and secretly, all this time.
Emelyn’s indifferent fox–like eyes gradually became sore and
red…
Bro, if you don’t come back, I will never get mated.
After Griffon left, Taya couldn’t bring herself to do anything. Most of the time, she would sit on the sofa

he would pull Grace over to cheer her up. Taya would occasionally force a smile, but it didn’t come from
the heart.
The hardest part was at night, Taya was used to sleeping with Griffon in her arms, but now that he was
gone, she was afraid.
to even turn off the lights.
In the middle of the night, she would wake up and reach out to
the spot next to her. When she felt the coldness, she couldn’t help but feel sad.

Preston was almost blocked by a group of messy relatives at the entrance of the company or in the
meeting room every day. At first, with the persuasion of his brothers, Preston could grit his teeth and
endure it. But after it happened multiple times, he started to lose his temper.
But even the relatives who were still under the Knight‘ employment couldn’t be intimidated by his
temper. “Preston, you are just an interim CEO, not the one in charge. Since you can’t give an
explanation, then just sell your shares publicly.”
They were afraid that Griffon would come back for revenge, so they didn’t dare to ask Taya for shares.
However, they
weren’t afraid of Preston.
But they underestimated Preston. Apart from his quick temper and impulsiveness, he was also quite
ruthless. “Sebastian, the management of personnel in the company, is it your subordinates‘
responsibility?”
“Sebastian nodded, ‘I am in charge of the administrative department, so it’s my subordinates who are
responsible for
it.”
Preston’s eyes narrowed with malice, growing even more intense. “You fired everyone who opposed
Griffon‘ share allocation!”

serious consequences. Grandpa might even come back to make things right for them…

afternoon. I don’t want to see them again tomorrow.”
With those words, Preston closed his laptop and got up to
leave the conference room,

As they watched the figure of the shooting star, Sebastian and Christopher exchanged a glance.
Preston had changed a bit during this time, seeming to have gained a sense of maturity
and courage.
But it was also good this way, they’ve long been fed up with those old–fashioned relatives.
After dealing with the company’s affairs, Preston returned to his office and opened his calendar. He
stared at the numbers counting down and his face was filled with worry. He didn’t know how Griffon
was doing now and if he would be able to
come back in a month.
