Chapter 1462 Fabian's Sorrow
Meanwhile, far away in Kingborune, Fabian was still holding a shareholders' meeting.
The Quinnell family had changed completely from what it used to be. During the meeting, no one spoke of the necessity of cooperating with Foplyanese companies for development. All the remaining shareholders were dedicated to building the business.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Their excitement was palpable at the news of the recent developments in Hawford led by Wynter.
"Mr. Quinnell Senior, my friends in Hawford have informed me that the land that Ms. Quinnell acquired is one of the most highly prioritized development zones by the government in recent years. Will the Quinnell Group be shifting our focus toward that area?'
Fabian didn't deny his speculations. He said with a hearty laugh, "You're absolutely right. The company will officially establish a branch in Hawford next month. As you all know, we started in Hawford. After all these years, it's time to return.'
In the past, it would have been impossible to even consider such a move. Despite being a long-held aspiration for many, reconnecting with a place once left behind was incredibly challenging.
Especially after the issues caused by Shane, the Quinnell Group had lost their foothold in Hawford. Breaking the ice in that area had become a daunting task.
Hawford, as an international metropolis, was a hub of cutting-edge business thinking. It was where domestic and foreign capital clash and learn from each other.
The Quinnell Group's absence from this dynamic environment over the years meant they had fallen significantly behind. But now, they were finally about to make a grand return!
This would not only open up new markets but also present unexpected business opportunities, particularly in overseas ventures and collaborations.
For those committed to practical achievements, the prospect was invigorating. Moreover, their first project could potentially be recorded in history.
Not only were ordinary shareholders excited, but even Fabian had spent a sleepless night at the Quinnell family memorial hall.
Fabian was filled with joy. It was a stark contrast to his thoughts just six months ago. Back then, he had merely hoped to see Wynter again before he passed.
He didn't consider himself a particularly worthy leader of the Quinnell family. With his son's failures and the family's missteps, he felt he had failed his ancestors.
His final, desperate strategy had been to use his death as a shield to protect the Quinnell family for a few more years. Despite a lifetime of integrity and honor, he often felt isolated. He felt that there was no one around him who he could have a heart-to-heart with
Perhaps this had happened a long time ago, but as he navigated through the murky waters of politics and business, he found himself struggling to distinguish between loyalty and deceit.
After every shareholder meeting, he felt as if he were surrounded by enemies, and any misstep could see the Quinnell Group falling into the wrong hands. None of his associates seemed to truly stand by him. His grandchildren each had their own ambitions and lacked a deep understanding of human nature. Although Albert grasped the intricacies of business, their relationship had always been strained.
Fabian had faced his share of sorrow, but he understood that he couldn't afford to be overwhelmed by it. The Quinnell Group needed his presence to stay on the right path.
Despite his efforts to hold on, he felt powerless to change the course of the family's decline. The harsh reality was that he was aging, and some of his old beliefs and strategies no longer fit the modern world.
He had hoped to make things right while he was still around and to bring Wynter back into the fold, supporting her as best as he could.
However, his despair seemed to dissolve with her return. In just a few short months, Wynter had managed to turn things around after her return.
His health improved, and the financial performance of all the subsidiaries under the company soared beyond the previous year's results.
The Quinnell Group's market value surged, which granted them genuine influence in the business arena, even amidst foreign competition! They no longer needed to rely on partnerships with foreign companies or fear being cornered by them!
