After a long meeting, Naomi Kenway was elected by the shareholders as the new chairwoman of the Kenway Group.
Applause erupted all around.
Saul Linton was so moved, he began to cry. He and Vincent Kenway had been the best of friends, and he had watched Vincent build the Kenway Group from scratch, turning it into a renowned local enterprise. Later, when Vincent's health declined, the company was passed to Rose Kenway to manage. Rose's business acumen was every bit as sharp as Vincent's—in fact, you could say the student had surpassed the master.
Back then, the business world was dominated by men who often looked down on female entrepreneurs. Yet, in that very environment, Rose Kenway managed to more than double the Kenway Group's assets. At their peak, the Kenway Family, though new money, stood on equal footing with the old, established families of Veridia. That was, until everything fell into the hands of Jackson Kensington.
