"We want to know more about the situation of the company." Another of his major stockholder asked in the crowd. Many more questions circulated in the air, but he refused to answer them anymore.
Now, everybody gathered in the ballroom, intrigued with the turn of events. Nobody expected the announcement of Ethan's retirement and his declaration of his new heir to his empire.
Was that the end of the surprise? Well, he doubted it. He might have started it, but it did not mean that he would end it. It was not his party anyway. He believed Alex still had something up his sleeves.
"I will hold my official press conference for the formal turnover of the company to Alex in a few days. I hope that all of you will continue to support my company under its new management." Ethan ended his speech with a big smile.
He was expecting that he would leave the stage after his big announcement with a heavy heart. But surprisingly, he felt the opposite.
