A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 124 Here Comes Mr. Smith

Miss Olivia sits in Louis's place, while Katherine is sitting next to her. The ambition is self-evident.

When Lily enters the conference room, Katherine frowns and says, "Lily, your department is set up by

former Mr. Louis on his own and he doesn't tell anyone else. Even if you are the manager, you

shouldn't be here."

What Katherine says sounds exactly like what Julian said to her the first time she was here.

"The former Louis." Did they have kick Louis out so soon?

Lily smiles lightly and says, "My department is set up by Mr. Louis alone, but it was announced in the

presence of all senior executives, I wonder what Miss Katherine meant when you said that he did not

inform the others. Did you mean he did not inform the shareholders or the several vice presidents?"

"Unless they want to change the CEO. Otherwise, the shareholders would not step in the changing of

the senior executives. The duties of several vice presidents are to assist the president in managing the

company and respect the president's decision."

Katherine's expression changes immediately after Lily retorts her. She smiles coldly, "What an eloquent

girl!"

"Forget it. Don’t waste time on a junior." says Miss Olivia.

Katherine says no more.

For the shareholders, Lily, though she helps Louis, is not important person in their eyes. Except for

Katherine, almost no one cares about her and pays attention to her.

Soon the meeting starts. As Lily guesses, it is about Louis's car accident.

"Louis is my nephew," Olivia says. "I saw what he has done a lot for the Smith Group, and I didn't

expect that the accident would happen to him. He lost his legs and is still unconscious."

"Louis will be treated well in the hospital, but the Smith Group can't wait for it," Samson says. "The

Smith Group just lost two billion dollars today and it needs a leader."

And that's what all shareholders don't want to see.

The fall of the Smith Group’s stock will cause them to lose a lot of money. If Louis can’t manage the

Smith Group for a short time, they have to choose a leader to manage the Smith Group and stop the

stock to decline.

Miss Olivia looks gentle and unassuming, but from where she sits, everyone can know what she wants

to do.

Samson and Gill have coveted the position for a long time, and certainly they will not let Olivia to get it.

Samson even says, "Miss Olivia, we know that you want to contribute to the Smith Group. But Mr.

Smith has said that the Smith Group can only have at most two members of the Smith family in the

company."

"I will not cross the line my brother sets." "My nephew is still in a coma in the hospital and I don't know

when he's going to wake up," Olivia says, "Right now there is only Katherine in the Smith Group."

Lily sits at the end of the conference table and watches the wonderful play.

She also learns that when profit comes first, some people are more vicious and uglier than she thought.

Olivia has privately contacted several of the shareholders and they reached an agreement that they

would stand by her side and speak for her.

With half of the shareholders out of town, Samson and Mr. Gill, of course, lost out to Olivia.

It is almost the fact that Olivia will run the Smith Group.

Lily knows she'll make a lot of enemies if she raises any questions, but she has to stand up and says,

"Miss Olivia and Miss Katherine, plus Mr. Louis in the hospital, there are three people of the Smith

family in the Smith Group."

Olivia doesn't expect Lily to go against her at this point. Unhappiness flashes by Olivia’s eyes, but her

voice is still soft. "I have said that Louis is in a coma and not in a position to run the Smith Group," she

says.

"Yes, he did, but he isn't fired from the Smith Group. He still stays in the Smith Group." says Lily calmly,

"So, if you take this position, it will break the rules of the Smith Group and the Reputation of the Smith

family.

"Lily!" Katherine slaps the table and shouts, "There are shareholders and vice presidents here," she

says angrily. "It’s not your turn to object to it."

Lily is not annoyed. She simply asks the shareholders, "You invite the senior executives to hold the

meeting, but you do not give us the right to speak. So, what's the meaning by coming here?"

"Lily is right. Mr. Louis is still in a coma, but he still stays the Smith Group." Samson takes the

opportunity to say, "Miss Olivia, you would be breaking Mr. Smith's rules if you intervene in it again."

Shareholders are nervous, and they dare not to support Olivia.

Mr. Smith hands over his position to Louis and still holds part of the equity of the Smith Group. The sum

of the equity in his hand and that of Louis is larger than that of all the shareholders.

In addition, Mr. Smith is resolute and vigorous. If they really break the rules, it would be easy to kick

them out.

The Smith Group is such a huge piece of meat that only a fool would throw it away.

Olivia' stares at Lily gloomily. From last night in the hospital to just now ran into Lily in the lobby, she

has never seen this woman directly, it is the first time she took a closer look at Lily now.

She knows that the secretary department has been controlled by Samson and Gill. Almost all the

people in the Smith Group stand by either Samson or Gill, and Louis has very few subordinates.

She didn’t expect Louis to have such a fierce woman around him. A mere manager dares to challenge

her, and makes her lose face in front of so many people!

"Lily, you're right." Olivia smiles. "Louis still stays in the Smith Group, so I can't be CEO or I will break

the rules of the Smith Group."

She stands up. The years has not made her hair white, but adds an air of authority to her, "But you are

guilty of meddling in the shareholders' decisions, and I am going to fire you!"

Lily knows that Olivia would be outraged, but she doesn't her to say so. She remains calm and says,

"Miss Olivia, you are not in the Smith Group and you have no right to fire me."

Olivia turns her eye on Samson, saying, "Samson, are you sure you'll stay someone who acts beyond

her authority?" Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Lily's face darkens.

Her department is set up by Louis himself, but Louis is now in the hospital, and if Olivia gets out,

Samson and Mr. Gill are the only people who would take over as CEO.

If either one of the two becomes the CEO, the CEO has the right to fire her.

Of course, Samson won't miss the opportunity to hit someone when she's down, but he's going to

pretend that he is making a hard decision. "Lily is good at her job, and is very excellent, but challenging

your superior is taboo."

Olivia looks at Lily, her gentle eyes are sharp and scornful, as if to remind Lily that she is not qualified

to fight herself or to take her in the eye.

Lily's breathing is confused. She keeps calm by pinching her fingers into the palm, her mind racing to

find a solution.

Tens of seconds of thinking has made her sweated.

Just as Lily moves her lips and relaxes to breathe again, the door of the conference room opens and

Stella helps an elderly gentleman in.

"What meeting are you having?"

Lily feels the voice is a little familiar. When she looks around, she finds that the person Stella is holding

is the old gentleman whom she helped when he was troubled by the sales when buying clothes at the

store, and who had hot pot with her and gave her advice!

The shareholders rose to greet the old gentleman.

"Mr. Smith."

Even Olivia goes over to hold him in person and takes him to the seat, "Mr. Smith, why are you out?

You are not recovered." she asks.

"The doctor tells me to come out for a walk so I wouldn't relax the muscles." Mr. Smith lies aside his

crutch and says, "I heard that the Smith Group’s stock has fallen sharply, so I come to see what

happens."
