I took a sip, and then Mr. Cox slowly told me the whole story.
Mr. Cox was an old employee of the company. He had been working in this company for more than 20 years. In addition to an annual salary of two million dollars, he was also one of the shareholders of the company. Now that his children had their own families, at the age of 48, he often felt that he owed his family's company. He had long wanted to retire, and he had been intentionally cultivating me to be his successor.
"Emily, I have seen your efforts in the company over the years. With your abilities, you can handle this position."
My eyes were moist. Mr. Cox was my benefactor in the workplace. He promoted me step by step. When I thought about how I disappointed his expectations in my previous life and gave up his years of cultivation, my tears cannot be controlled.
"I won't let you down."
Mr. Cox gave me a week off to adjust my mentality. He would be in the company for the last month before he handed over his work to me.
It was really good to start over. I didn't let him down.
