Admit You Need Me: A Secret Pregnancy Romance (Irresistible Billionaires Book 4)

“Carter, you’ll be Chief Financial Officer,” she said.
That made sense too. He was a wiz at math, and probably could have gone on to work for NASA or something, but chose to stay in the family business.
“Noah, you’ll be Chief Technology Officer.”
Actually, that made sense too. Noah was brilliant like Carter, but he just was lazy in his brilliance. He’d created a few apps, sold them for a ton of money, and spent the rest of his time riding his motorcycle. He did some work for us sometimes, but mostly he hated corporate life.
“I don’t work here,” Noah responded.
“Noah, it’s time you put more focus in your life beyond your bike. This role fits with you perfectly,” Gran stated in a way that for the rest of us would have been taken as not having a choice.
“Gran, you know I love you, but I’m not interested.” Noah planted his boots on the floor, stood and strode out of the room.
I rolled my eyes.
“Baby brother needs to get his shit together,” Hunter said.
“We already do these jobs, so what difference do the titles make?” I asked, deciding Noah was a lost cause.
“They matter because you’re now running the show. The four of you,” she said.
There was one notable position she didn’t assign. “What about CEO?” I asked.
“There won’t be a CEO. You’ll all have to work together to make the company grow and continue its success.”
I suspect there was no CEO because that job should have been my father’s. Like Noah, he’d checked out of corporate life when my mother died. I think Gran hoped he’d someday check back in, but he never did.
Fortunately, except for Noah, we all got along okay, so I didn’t anticipate many issues, Still, it was possible we could run into problems if we disagreed. But with my call coming in a few minutes, I didn’t have time to push the topic now.
“I won’t be leaving for a few months, so there’s time to work out the kinks. But I will be backing off from business and giving you more responsibly. Make sure you don’t ruin my legacy, boys. Make me proud.” She stood, and with an air of regalness, she exited the room.
Andi gathered her notes and reports and followed her toward the door.
“Do you think she’s serious?” Carter asked. “This company is her life. What is she going to do with her free time?”
“She’ll probably spend it on the beach with her new hunky surfer boyfriend,” Andi said as she walked out the door.
We all looked at each other gaping.
“She’s joking, right?” Hunter asked.
I didn’t know, but I didn’t have time to discuss it. I had a call to make and something to prove. This company was as important to me as it was to my grandmother. Like her, I planned to dedicate my life to nurturing it and watching it grow.
