Jayden's Return To Owen Group

At the Owen Group, Jayden stepped out of the car, greeted by a man with sleek black-rimmed glasses. With a deep voice, Jayden addressed him, saying, "Lukas, it's been a year. Why the demotion instead of a< promotion?"

Lukas Sugden sighed heavily, his gaze downcast. "Mr. Owen, please stop teasing me. You're aware of the challenges I faced in the company."All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

A glimmer of hope reflected in Lukas' eyes as he cautiously inquired, "Are you considering returning to assume leadership at the Owen Group?"

Assmile played on Jayden's lips. "You're overthinking, Lukas. I'm here to see my brother." The glint in Lukas" eyes dimmed.

He knew Jayden's comeback to Owen Group wouldn't be easy. Jayden's disability had rendered

him ineligible for the competitive corporate ladder. He had been cast aside.

Lukas managed a bitter smile. "Mr. Owen, I eagerly anticipate your return. Your brilliance is

undeniable. With my support, you'll surely thrive."

Jayden didn't acknowledge the remark. "Move aside. I'll go in," he said calmly.

Lukas complied, silently stepping aside to let Jayden pass.

Though Jayden had been absent from the company for a year, his presence hadn't faded from the minds of the company's employees.

His reappearance elicited surprise from all who laid eyes on him.w.(N)OY elWorm.org

"He's Mr. Jayden Owen, right? He's back in the office today. It's been ages since we last saw him." "He looks as handsome as ever. It's a shame about his accident, though. He's not as perfect as before."

"What's he doing here? Is he coming back?"

The employees buzzed with chatter about Jayden, reminiscing about his tenure as a decisive and capable CEO who had spearheaded numerous lucrative projects, each yielding over a hundred billion dollars in profit. His contributions were undeniable.

Walking alongside Jayden, Lukas couldn't help but hear his coworkers conversations, a tumult of emotions swirling within him.

During Jayden's CEO tenure, Lukas had held a pivotal role as the director of the project department, one of the company's most critical positions.

Yet, Lukas had harbored doubts about Jayden, believing him to be too impulsive and reckless, failing to consider the risks.

Consequently, Lukas had consistently opposed Jayden and was reluctant to cooperate with him. But with Jayden's departure from Owen Group, Lukas soon realized that not everyone possessed Jayden's astute decision-making prowess and visionary outlook.

Brook had attempted to emulate Jayden's assertiveness, signing contracts without hesitation. However, lacking Jayden's foresight, he incurred losses.

Due to this disagreement, Lukas found himself at odds with Brook on < multiple occasions. As a

result, he faced successive demotions until he was stripped of his leadership role in the most critical positions.

Relegated to the role of director in the service department, Lukas settled into a routine that primarily consisted of savoring cups of coffee throughout the day.

Lukas held onto hope that Jayden would return to Owen Group, but convincing him was proving to be an uphill battle.

'As Jayden approached the doorway of the design department, his attention was drawn to a heated exchange. One man was berating Bryce, whose irritation was palpable.

The man's ire intensified as Bryce's expression remained unmoved, leading to harsher words. "You've failed at even the simplest tasks. Perhaps it's time to consider leaving. This environment isn't suited for someone like you," the man shouted.

Bryce's retort was sharp and unapologetic. "I couldn't care less. Do you honestly think I want to work under your command? Cease your

pointless tirade."

Unable to bear the tension any longer, Lukas intervened, knocking on the door and drawing the

attention of everyone in the department.

"Are you the director of the design department?" Jayden inquired, his memory failing to recall the man's identity, suspecting that Brook had already ousted the senior staff who had worked under him.

"Yes, that would be me, the current director of this department," the man responded, adjusting his attire and approaching Jayden with newfound confidence. "Mr. Jayden Owen, it's a pleasure to have you visit our department. How may I assist you?"

A subtle sneer tugged at the corners of Lukas' lips, a glint of disdain flickering in his eyes. Jayden stated plainly, "I need to speak with my younger brother."

The man graciously acquiesced, wasting no time in granting Jayden permission. "Of course, please proceed."

Bryce observed the swift change in demeanor from the man who had previously berated him to one who now showed deference to Jayden. Disgusted by the hypocrisy, he resolved to leave the design department, convinced they were not worth his time or talent

Reluctantly, Bryce exited the office, following Jayden into the adjacent conference room. Upon entering, Bryce couldn't contain his impatience. "What do you want?" he demanded. Jayden met his gaze and got straight to the point. "Stop tarnishing your reputation in this 'company. You lack the business acumen to succeed here. It's time to go home."
