While everyone was thinking there will be an announcement regarding Arsh, Aria simply stated, " To give a farewell to Former Chairman, there will be a party tomorrow. You will receive the invitation shortly. Please do attend. That\'s all for today. Thank you."

Alan, Arsh, and Rian weren\'t confused. They were sure Aria will have her plan for Arsh.

After that meeting, she asked Nathan to arrange another meeting with the management department. Managers and directors who are from city B, rushed to the Morgan Industries, overseas general managers prepared to attend the meeting over web conference. Some had to sacrifice their sleep and food to attend as soon as they heard about the change in chairman and Alan had resigned. Most of them thought somebody took over the Morgan Industries from Morgans so they wanted to climb up in their career.

Still clueless, Arsh asked his father while watching Aria completing some procedures. "Dad, why do I feel like I need to go on a war?" In just an hour, Aria changed the direction of the Morgan industries. The change in chairman and resignation of Alan wasn\'t just the talk of the company but the whole country started to look at it.

"That\'s the chairman for you."

More than two hours passed by the time everyone gathered. Aria hadn\'t spoken a word with Alan who took care of his work as CEO and President. Arsh watched his parents in total silence.

Despite both didn\'t speak, they were subconsciously glancing at each other and he started missing Noor. He hadn\'t seen her for a week now, video calls excluded. He hadn\'t told her what he would be doing after resignation. Well, even he has no idea of it either.

Nathan came inside and informed them that they could start meeting in ten minutes. Aria nodded as she collected the file from Nathan, "Thank you."

She quickly skimmed through the contents before turning to Arsh, "Nemo…" She beckoned him to reach her.

Alan and Arsh looked at each other before the latter reached her, "Yes, Mom."

Aria passed him the file, "I have acquired the tech company you were investing in. You will be the general manager of it. Study the file quickly, you will know the rest in the meeting." That was her move as his mother.

Alan and Arsh: "..."

It had been two hours, she just knew Arsh was passionate about computers and technologies. To sync her plans, she opened the path for him.

"I guess I need to learn a lot from you, Chairman Cooper." Arsh smiled as he kept the file back on the table, "I know all the projects of this company and the goal. I can handle every question about them."

Aria smiled in response. She wanted him to start from the point that excites him. If he could manage it better, then she will choose him for the position. She wouldn\'t let anybody think Arsh was just lucky due to his family and parents.

Seeing her son proud and also eager, Aria could guess Arsh was happy with her decision, "Then, let\'s go and kick start the meeting."

In the meeting, it wasn\'t the only announcement of Aria taking over as chairman while Alan will be working as temporary, Aria let each one know they could be the next CEO of Morgan Industries if they could make notable progress in the next quarter.

Most of the people thought Arsh wouldn\'t make it as he was named as a rich heir with no talent. Also because he was doing nothing according to the world. Well, they had forgotten Aria and Alan were right behind him to guide.

Everyone was thrilled as the result would be out in the open and Aria wouldn\'t be able to back out. They started working, being innovative and more focused. It was the kind of war they wanted to win and gain the upper hand.

The news about it was published everywhere while Arsh was going towards his new small company where the employees were waiting for him.

Meanwhile, Aria flopped on the couch in Alan\'s office. She looked at the ensuite, a thought of crawling to the bed was knocking her mind when strong arms slowly wrapped around her.

Alan took her to the bed and laid her down while hearing, "You don\'t get old, do you?."

He lowered and kissed her forehead, caressing her hair, "For you, never."

Aria smiled helplessly but suddenly propped her head, "Honey, why did you want me to handle this?"

Alan leaned on the headboard of the bed pulling her head to rest on his lap. He let her know why he put so much workload on her. "I had no experience when I joined. Seeing  the youngman at 21 taking the President position, on the surface, they appeared surprised and supportive but they doubted me for a long time. Instead of doing their work, they were making mistakes just to see if I could catch that." That slows down the overall work. He had to keep proving himself again and again.

Before Aria could blame herself for putting another company burden on him, he pinched her nose, "They took a few months to accept me and got everything back on track. I got you after it." He quickly released her from any guilt she might feel. Then he added, "And you were different when you took over Skyline."

Aria nodded in understanding why Alan changed his decision at the neck of the time. He didn\'t want Arsh to experience the same as him and liked Aria\'s way of stepping up to the position.

She whined, recalling her workload, "So you gave me so much work."

"You proved me right."

"But it\'s still a lot of work."

"Need a new assistant?"

Aria nodded vigorously, accurately knowing who her new assistant was. Alan chuckled, pecking on her lips. His retirement was only on the surface, he would be with her to work.

She revealed her thoughts when Alan was adamant about putting her to sleep. "I will appoint Ivan as CEO after their honeymoon." She didn\'t want to pressure the young man during his wedding preparation.

Alan hummed. "I bought a beach house. Let\'s take a break to unwind." As much as it was going to be stressful to Arsh, Alan and Aria had double pressure and work to handle the rest. So Alan wanted to take a pretty long break later.

Aria, who tried to take a nap, opened her eyes and asked worriedly, "Will Nemo be able to handle those employees? I forgot to tell him to be prepared."

"Sweetheart, at his age, you had a whole conglomerate on your head with little ones in your arms. Stop worrying about him, let him struggle a little."

"Alright…" She snuggled him to take a nap.
