Tessa smiled and said, “I know you’ve always wanted us to get along, Mom. Honestly, I don’t really have anything against Aurora.
“I just think I’m too slow compared to her. She’s so much more outstanding than me. To be honest, I’m really envious of her.” Grace looked at Tessa, her heart skipping a beat.
In the end, she pulled her into a hug and comforted her.
“Alright, I understand what you mean. Your sister is in a coma right now, but physically, she’s stable. The real trouble is with the company.
“These contracts are just sitting there, and I can’t find anyone suitable to take over.”

But Grace dismissed all of them.
vested a few people.
“I know who you’re talking about, but none of them are very steady. They’ve never handled projects like these before. It won’t be easy for them to get started.”
A sharp glint flashed across Grace’s eyes. “Besides, I see through their ambitions clearly. I wouldn’t feel comfortable handing these projects to them.”
Tessa lowered her head, looking troubled. “Then what should we do? I don’t know of anyone else either. Sometimes, I really hate that I can’t help you, Mom. I feel so useless.”
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, clinging to the corners but refusing to fall, making her look pitiful.

Grace tested the waters. “Tessa, don’t be so hard on yourself. Look at your major, it actually aligns quite well with our company. Would you be willing to…”
Tessa’s heart leapt with joy.
She held back the urge to scream, her hands clenched tightly at her sides.
God knew how much effort it took to suppress the overwhelming excitement surging inside her.
She had been waiting for this moment, and she hadn’t expected Grace to finally say it out loud.
“Mom, what do you mean?”
Grace was too anxious to notice the anticipation in Tessa’s eyes.
She followed Tessa’s words and said, “I mean, you can step in as the acting executive manager for a few days.
“You majored in this field, and your health has been quite stable these past few years. That gives me peace of mind.”
As she spoke, Grace patted the back of Tessa’s hand. “I know this will be hard on you, but I can’t just sit by and watch Walton Corporation fall apart.”
Tears welled up in Tessa’s eyes. “It’s not hard at all, not one bit, Mom.
“As long as I can share some of your burden, I’ll do anything. None of this is too much for me.

Tessa made a solemn promise. “Mom, don’t worry. I won’t let you down. I’ll study those contracts carefully.”
Grace patted her shoulder, then pulled her into a tight hug.
“Don’t worry. I’ll do my best to help your sister wake up as soon as possible. I don’t want your health to suffer too much because
of this.”
