My sister and I were both daughters of the Gryffindor Family. My father said that whoever could write a plan to reform the company would inherit the Gryffindor Family's company. I lived up to everyone's expectations and wrote a satisfactory plan after visiting dozens of partners. But on the day he announced the transfer of the company, I deleted all the plans and gave up the right of inheritance.
In my previous life, I ran around between various partners without sleep and finally landed the plan. But on the day of inheriting the company, my sister took out an identical document. The creation time was one day earlier than mine.
My sister was supported by the whole company to become the new chairman, but I was scolded by everyone for shameless plagiarism. My father announced on the spot that I would be kicked out of the Gryffindor Family and took away all the assets under my name.
My sister even contacted major media to expose my plagiarism. I was forced into despair by cyber violence and sent to prison. I was beaten to death in prison.
Until the moment of death, I didn't understand why the plan that I wrote by hand became hers?
When I opened my eyes again, I went back to the day of the family meeting. Dad made a will under the witness of all the elders of the Gryffindor Family, saying that whoever could come up with the company's innovation plan first would inherit the company.
——
The applause brought me back from the memory of my previous life.
Dad walked to my side and patted my shoulder at this time, "Sherly, you joined the company early and you are my daughter. The company's current development is not very good. I am also old. I will still hand it over to you in the future. You have to work hard..."
Hearing his words that were the same as in the previous life, I couldn't help but clench my fists.
Renee hurriedly said obediently, "Don't worry, Dad. Everyone says that my sister is a business genius. She must have a way to change the current situation of the company. Don't worry about it. Your health is important."
Her words were exactly the same as in the previous life. If I hadn't experienced it myself, I would never have thought that my kind and lovely sister would have such a sinister and cunning side.
Since the plan I worked so hard to write was destined to fall on her head, whoever wanted to inherit the company could inherit it. I wished I could just sit back and collect money.
"I'm not as good as everyone says. Dad helped me before. I definitely can't write a plan by myself. The future of the company still has to be handed over to Renee!"
Hearing that I backed out, everyone's face darkened.
Renee was even more anxious, "Sherly, why are you still talking angrily at this time? Even with Dad's help, everyone can see your strength. Now the company has reached a critical juncture of life and death. You can't lose heart."
Dad slammed his fist on the table and frowned. "Sherly, this is not the time for you to lose your temper! If Gryffindor company goes bankrupt, do you think you can still live a good life? Not to mention the outside partners, you can't even afford to pay the principal of the company's shareholders! Don't blame me for not reminding you, we all prosper together and we all suffer together. I'm not asking you to choose, I'm telling you!"
Dad was the head of the Gryffindor Family and there were only two daughters, Renee and I. Mom died early and he had been under a lot of pressure over the years facing the covetous eyes of the rest of the Gryffindor Family.
As far as I knew, no less than ten elders wanted to put their sons in the company. If it weren't for Dad and the shareholders' resolute opposition, I was afraid our family of three would had been kicked out long ago.
For this reason, he had already tried to pave the way for me and Renee when we were young. As soon as I graduated, he sent me to the company for training. He said that if Renee and I didn't live up to expectations, the company would be immediately swallowed up by others.
Chapter 2Not to mention being kicked out of the Gryffindor Family, I was afraid that the people we had offended in the business world over the years would not let us have an easy time. I understood how difficult it was for him, so I visited all the major partners in my previous life without sleep, just to find a plan to innovate the company.
But later the plan was written. But on the day of inheritance, Renee took out an identical document. And her creation time was a whole day earlier than mine.
Faced with the overwhelming evidence, no one would doubt that there was something wrong with her plan. I was immediately scolded by everyone as a shameless plagiarist who stole the fruits of my sister's labor.
Renee looked at the plan in my computer, tears welled up in her eyes,
"Sherly, I know that my ability is not as good as yours. For the development of the company, I have been working day and night. How can you bear to steal my files? Isn't this forcing me to be kicked out of the Gryffindor Family?"
She continued, "I know you are also for the good of the company. I don't blame you. As long as you admit that you are plagiarizing and voluntarily give up your inheritance rights, I can ask my father to let you stay at home and give you a thousand living expenses every month."
Her seemingly generous words instantly caused dissatisfaction among all shareholders.
A group of people slammed the table and stood up, pointing at my nose and cursing.
"What a bullshit business genius, I think he is just a watered-down idiot! Those previous plans were also copied from outside!"
"Mr. Gryffindor cultivated her so hard and she became the general manager as soon as she entered the company. Is she worthy?"
"If Renee hadn't produced evidence this time, the company would have been in the hands of this bitch! Mr. Gryffindor, don't blame me for being ruthless. With what Sherly did, she doesn't deserve the surname Gryffindor at all!"
Renee was collectively recognized by the company as the new chairman, but my father kicked me out of the house and took away all the assets under my name.
Renee sued and sent me to prison, where I was beaten to death. Until the moment of my death, I couldn't figure out why the partner I worked so hard to get appeared in her plan?
***
Seeing her anxious expression at the moment, I responded calmly.
"Don't worry, Dad. I understand what you said. I will try my best to find a solution for the company."
On the way out, I thought about every detail of my previous life in my mind.
After writing the plan, I only showed it to my father. But Renee and I were his biological daughters. Everything we do was for the Gryffindor Family. It should be impossible for him to steal my plan.
So where was the problem?
I was puzzled and flipped through the contact information of major partners on the screen. These companies were recommended to me by my fiancé, Jacob Mraz. He knew that I had just graduated and lacked experience and he helped me a lot over the years.
Did he leak the secret? I deleted the partners he sent me and planned to find them myself this time.
I didn’t believe Renee could steal!
As soon as I got home, I received a message from my father. It was a list of partners. They were all the connections he had accumulated over the years in the business world. He repeatedly told me not to tell Renee the list.
This obviously put all his hopes on me. Looking at the notes he carefully wrote on the screen, I became more and more puzzled.
In the past, I always thought that my father favored me more because he tilted most of the resources towards me. He always gave me more than Renee and even my fiancé was Jacob, who was a good match for the Gryffindor Family.
From the day I joined Gryffindor Group, the employees observed my words and regarded me as the future heir. But after experiencing the father-daughter feud in the previous life, I could no longer put the word "favoritism" on myself.
Chapter 3After understanding everything, I didn't look at his list again and clicked delete directly.
Turning on the computer, I began to think about the reform plan myself. Three hours later, I finally had an idea, but I didn't write it down immediately.
Instead, I sent a message to Jacob. Just to test where he was.
He and Renee had a good relationship. In the previous life, I jokingly asked him if he liked my sister. But he denied it outright, saying that he approached Renee just to find out about the enemy for me.
Soon, the other party replied with a secretly video. He was attending Mraz's shareholders' meeting. I was relieved to see that he had no time to sneak attack.
I drove to the company again.
Since it was impossible to determine who stole my files, now everyone in the company was a suspect. When I went there, the company had already closed and only the light in Renee's office was still on.
When I walked out of the elevator, I bumped into shareholder Uncle Waltz.
He hurriedly pulled me aside and whispered in my ear, "How is your plan? Do you need Uncle Waltz to help you? I heard that your sister already has an idea. You have always been better than her, so you can't fall behind! I can only feel at ease if I hand over the company to you."
I felt a shudder in my heart and hurriedly said goodbye to him and went into Renee's office on the pretext of delivering coffee. Sure enough, I saw a draft paper on her desk, which clearly listed the ideas I had just thought of. I felt cold in my heart, but congratulated her calmly on the surface.
When I turned back to my office, I hurriedly overturned my previous idea. I rewrote a new idea.
But before I could breathe a sigh of relief, Renee knocked on my door with a cup of coffee.
"Sherly? Are you still writing? Drink some coffee to refresh yourself. Dad would be very pleased if he knew how hard you worked. By the way, let me show you the plan I just came up with. It's a pity that it's still a prototype. Do you have any good suggestions?"
The next second, she took out a map of ideas that was exactly the same as mine. My hand holding the paper was getting tighter and tighter and my knuckles were shaking. I just wrote it, where did she hear the news?
After being reborn, I still couldn’t escape the fate of being plagiarized?
I smiled and said that I was inexperienced and asked her to ask my father for advice.
I fled the office in embarrassment. I threw the ideas I just wrote into the shredder.
That night, I bought a bottle of wine to go to my father to test his opinion.
But I heard him say that Renee had not yet written a prototype of the plan.
As he spoke, he sighed in disappointment. "I can't compare to you after all. If Renee wants to manage a company, she still needs to practice for a few more years."
I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not too late.
Under the influence of alcohol, I rethought a way. I told my father about my idea.
He was excited and excited and patted my shoulder proudly, "The company will rely on you in the future. If there is no reform, Gryffindor Group will be eliminated. Your idea is very good. Go ahead. Dad supports you."
This time, with my father as a witness, I didn’t believe that Renee could still copy my plan!
But the next morning, when I entered the company gate, I heard employees whispering,
"Didn't the second lady come to the company today? Is she going to give up the inheritance?"
"Your news is too rustic. The second lady reported to the chairman early this morning and went to Salomon Group to discuss cooperation! I heard that the plan has been written."
Salomon Group? My mind exploded and I couldn't stop the chill all over my body.
That was clearly a partner that I had just thought of last night and I contacted the person in charge overnight to discuss the cooperation.
Chapter 4Why did she know? The fear of having everything taken away by her in my previous life was still vivid in my mind. If the fruits of my hard work were destined to be used as wedding clothes for her, then I might as well destroy them with my own hands now!
I hurriedly took out my mobile phone and sent a message to the person in charge of Salomon Group to cancel the cooperation.
Back in the office, I checked every corner of the room. I checked all around, confirming that there were no eavesdropping devices installed. I also asked the nanny at home to check my study. The result was also nothing.
How did Renee know my idea? Could she really monitor my brain? It was ridiculous.
I rejected this ridiculous idea of mine in a second. Turned around and racked my brains to think about the plan again.
***
In one morning, at least ten shareholders came in.
Seeing that I was at a loss, they all laughed at me,
"Aren't you a business genius? How come you can't even write a plan?"
"I think Gryffindor’s Group will be handed over to someone else in Gryffindor's generation! I'm waiting for you to sell your shares and take over."
Faced with all kinds of doubts, I didn't say a word. I just lowered my head and kept thinking about the problem.
When Renee returned to the company, my father welcomed her with great fanfare. But he only got the news that the cooperation was cancelled. Renee said that there were still some problems with the plan and she needed to revise it. This company was not suitable for the current situation of Gryffindor’s Group.
My father was extremely disappointed and rushed into my office. "After all, she is a kid who just graduated. She dared to talk about cooperation without even understanding the company's situation. The whole company was happy for nothing!"
He continued, "How is your plan? You must not let Dad down. The future development of the company depends on you alone!"
I managed to deal with him.
After he left, I immediately took out my mobile phone and searched for other suitable partners. This time I didn't tell anyone, contacted the other party's person in charge and went straight to the hotel after get off work.
But before I entered the door, I heard Renee's cheerful laughter from inside.
The person in charge toasted respectfully and said, "You are worthy of being two sisters. You have the same idea. Your sister just contacted me and you invited me to dinner right after. Don't worry, I have wanted to cooperate with Gryffindor for a long time. I wish us a happy cooperation!"
The moment the sound of clinking glasses rang, I was soaked in cold sweat. I hurriedly left the hotel on the pretext of feeling unwell.
The agreed time was coming. I hadn’t found out the key to plagiarism yet.
After hesitating, I decided to give up the local partner. So I went to other places to find out!
The moment I bought the plane ticket, Renee's just-posted Instagram popped up. A group of people were toasting in the private room and her expression seemed to be confident of winning.
As soon as the picture was posted, it received hundreds of likes. All of them were employees of the company without exception.
Dad was the first to comment, "My dear daughter has grown up. It's amazing that she can complete the plan independently this time. Dad wishes you success!"
Jacob also sent his blessings and said that Renee could go to him if she encounters any difficulties at work in the future. The concern between the lines clearly did not seem to be fake. It seemed that his quibbling to me in the previous life was just an excuse. Maybe he was also one of the accomplices in Renee's plagiarism this time!
I ignored their news. I packed my luggage and got on the plane.
After landing, I wrote down my new ideas as soon as possible. This time I broke the norm and made drastic reforms. The first step was to cut off the main artery of Gryffindor Group.
I didn’t believe that Renee dared to steal such a bold idea!
After writing the plan, I immediately learned about local companies. The next week I was busy visiting cooperation. I didn't reply to any message from my father or Jacob's greetings.
The trip was kept completely secret and no one knew where I went.
It wasn't until the agreed day that my father held a press conference to announce the results of the successor selection. I showed up at the scene.
But as soon as I arrived, I heard the shareholders talking.
"Have you heard? Miss Renee overturned all the previous plans and partners! This plan is too bold, I don't know if it will work..."
"It seems that all the partners contacted in this plan are from Hawaii. They are so far away and I don't know where she contacted them from. She is worthy of being the daughter of Chairman Gryffindor. She is really bold!"
"Miss Sherly joined the company earlier, maybe she has a better plan, let's wait for the money."
In an instant, my blood froze. My pupils trembled as I looked at the stage.
On the big screen, Renee's reform plan was exactly what I wrote now! And the time of completion was still one day earlier than mine! At this moment, I finally realized how ridiculous it was that I tried every means to avoid it!
When she finished talking about the plan, the scene applauded. Everyone's expectant eyes fell on my face.
Dad said in a deep voice, "Sherly, what are you waiting for? It's your turn."
Jacob also arrived at this time and smiled as he took the computer in my hand to the stage to copy the file.
I rushed up, snatched the mouse and pressed the delete key before the file was revealed. "I didn't write it out, I give up the inheritance!"
At the same time, Renee's plan on the computer screen also disappeared.
She was anxious. "Are you crazy? What are you doing!"
