A Miracle Fault novel Chapter 46

He didn't understand Keegan's meaning at that time. Many years later, he finally learned that his brother was trying to protect him and didn't want him and Frank to fight each other.

But he really didn't fight with Frank. It was just that in the year he turned sixteen, Frank wanted to kill him. He withdrew from the family feud, but Frank still wanted him dead.

During the years he moved to Soul Island, Frank attacked him several times. Finally, he was freed when he had Pes. He went to France for three years. To others, he had been there to heal his legs, while in fact, Archer got his legs recovered within six months.

He spent the remaining two and a half years training day and night in the organization. He wanted so badly to listen to his brother and not compete for the family business, but if he was going to stay alive, he had to be strong.

Frank wanted to kill him, so how could he not fight for it? And now his mother was once again asking him to give up the presidency to Frank. If he agreed, maybe he would soon be put to death by Frank!

Could he still take that risk? Even so, he now had Emmeline by his side. He seemed to have seen a good future ahead. He had to be strong to protect his woman and the people he was supposed to protect.

"Mother, Frank, and I are both your children. Why is it that only Frank can become the president and I can't? Grandpa declared personally that the presidency belongs to me. How could I give this position to Frank?" There was mockery in his eyes, but more precisely, depression.

"Stefan, Frank has made a great contribution to the company for so many years. He should be the real candidate for the president of the Byrne Group. Grandpa only gave you this position because he loves you. You can't possibly be qualified for this position. You'd better give it back to Frank." Ciara could no longer resist exposing what was on her mind.

It seemed that she was concerned about Stefan's health and was afraid that he would suffer for the Byrne Group, while on the other hand, she was trying to get Stefan to give up his position as president.

"Mother, didn't you hear that Grandpa asked me personally to be the president of the Byrne Group. It hasn't even been a day, and you're asking me to give the position to Frank. What would Grandpa think of me, the grandson he had such high hopes for, if he knew?"

He looked at Ciara with sharp eyes, "I will not disobey Grandpa. Mother, please forgive me!"

"You ..." Ciara glared at Stefan. She hadn't cared for him for years, and she didn't expect him not to be the same obedient and compliant little boy anymore.

He kept calling her mother and asking her for forgiveness. He didn't call her mom, which meant he was distant from her. He rebuffed politely, and there was nothing she could do about it even if she was partial to Frank.

"Well, Stefan, since Grandpa has given you this responsibility, you should manage the Byrne Group well." Callum finally spoke up.

"I will, Father." Stefan wheeled to leave. He didn't even look at the people in the conference room, but walked out with Paul and Chand and went straight into the president's office.

Stefan's success as president at the shareholders' meeting created an uproar throughout X City.

And Emmeline didn't know anything about it on Soul Island. In the evening, Paul and Stefan returned to the island.

Emmeline waited on the beach and saw the car stop on the beach from afar. She walked over quickly and pushed the wheelchair.

Stefan opened the car door. Seeing the girl's soft little face, his tiredness disappeared instantly.

"Are you waiting for me? Ma'am."

Emmeline smiled and nodded, "I'm waiting for you to come back for dinner. You should be back at this hour if there are no social engagements."

Stefan got into his wheelchair and took Emmeline's hand, "I will be very busy in the future. Don't wait for me to have dinner if you are hungry."

Emmeline pushed his wheelchair towards the villa, "I can wait. Are you comfortable with your first day at the Byrne Group today?"

"Yes, ma'am. Don't you know your husband? In every way, I am the strongest." He looked into her dark blue eyes.

He decided in his mind that he would not let anyone hurt his girl.
