First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 292

Chapter 292: Chapter 292: Bearing Children for Caleb Lockwood

"Hmm, I’ll be watching closely."

Caleb Lockwood nodded calmly.

Serena Jennings’s brow furrowed involuntarily.

She still couldn’t understand Caleb Lockwood.

He had been so unwilling to divorce her before.

He even created the illusion that they had divorced, when in fact they hadn’t.

Why was he suddenly so agreeable now?

Not only did he divorce swiftly, he also gave her half of the marital property that she hadn’t been prepared to take.

"I’ll kick your entire Lockwood family out."

This time, Serena spoke with confident determination.

She thought, at least Caleb’s eyes would show some hint of anger.

Having been the head of the Lockwood Group for so long, she didn’t believe Caleb had no feelings for the company.

Yet, Caleb’s smile didn’t waver at all.

Serena’s brow furrowed even more.

She disliked Caleb looking at her with that indulgent gaze.

"Do you think by leaving everything to me and abandoning the Lockwood Group, the harm you’ve done to me in the past can be written off?"

This time, Caleb’s expression subtly changed.

His smiling lips remained, but his eyes showed a trace of pain.

"That’s not what I think."

Serena looked away, stuffed the last bite of bread into her mouth, then stood up.

"Where are you going? Let me give you a ride!"

Caleb stood up as well.

Serena glanced at Caleb, mockingly said, "Do you even have a car to give me a ride?"

Caleb opened his mouth, his face showing embarrassment.

Serena briskly walked away from the old house under Caleb’s gaze.

Caleb’s expression gradually turned into one of helpless amusement.

"As a man who left with nothing, it seems inappropriate to have a car..."

In the following three days, as the largest shareholder of the Lockwood Group, Serena began taking over the entire company.

First, she reorganized the board and kicked out all the Lockwood family members, including Arthur Lockwood.

The executives with the Lockwood surname, especially those promoted by Arthur, were all transferred to branches far from City A.

Arthur originally thought that with such a move by Serena, the vacancy of so many executive positions would seriously affect the company’s daily operations, allowing him to impeach Serena at the board meeting.

Unexpectedly, Serena immediately found people to fill those positions.

Moreover, the people she arranged weren’t brought in from her former studio nor newly recruited. They were originally employees of the Lockwood Group.

These employees were excellent, with outstanding performance, and had been with the company for quite some time.

However, Arthur never promoted them because they weren’t aligned with him.

This time, Serena gave them positions and compensation that matched their performance and capability.

Not only did the Lockwood Group experience no adverse business impact, but employee morale also soared.

Arthur, furious, downed his drink and ran to the old Lockwood house to confront Lance Lockwood, as he believed Serena couldn’t have understood the Lockwood Group employees’ performance and capabilities in such a short time.

In fact, it was Lance who provided the list of promotable personnel to Serena.

However, it was Serena who proactively sought advice from Lance.

In Lance’s view, Serena was indeed teachable.

In the end, Arthur, initially drunk and intending to argue with his father, ended up being scolded by Lance and left the old house in disgrace.

Without breaking a sweat, Serena took control of the Lockwood Group’s board and assumed Caleb’s initial position.

In the general manager’s office, Serena sat in the executive chair, feeling an indescribable sensation internally.

It was as if everything was unreal, as though she was dreaming.
