Liam put down the phone and sat on his chair, feeling upset.
After a long time, he called out to his secretary with a bitter expression. “Notify the major shareholders
to attend an emergency board of directors’ meeting.” The secretary left to notify the major shareholders
while Liam tidied up his outfit, composed himself, and walked to Boardroom.
A little over an hour later, the major shareholders from the board of directors arrived.
Trevor and Miles looked at Liam and Sadie, their faces dull and gloomy.
Trevor said coldly, “Mr. Wolfenden, I heard from Miles that the six bank presidents were here to seek
repayment of debts. What’s going on with that?” The shareholders’ expressions changed drastically!
‘The banks are pressing for payment of debts? Why?’ Sadie’s expression was slightly unpleasant, but
she brought herself to say, “They were here to seek repayment of debts indeed.” Miles said in a
sarcastic tone, “I only wish to know if you’ve agreed to them, Ms. Wolfenden.” All the shareholders
looked toward Sadie in unison, and their expressions changed drastically again at the sight of her
keeping quiet. “Sadie Wolfenden!” An aged man could not contain his anger. “Did you agree for real?”
They were the shareholders, so they had dibs on every single penny of the company’s account!
‘If the company’s money is used to pay the banks, what will the company use to run its business? How
are we going to profit from the company?’
Sadie said, “We can’t not pay the debts-”.
“B*llsh*t!” growled the old man.
The old man was Chandler Irvin, and he had invested a few hundred thousand dollars when the
company was initially established.
“That’s very bold of you to agree to pay the banks without any meeting prior. Do you really think that
your Wolfenden family solely owns the company?” Quincy’s father, Daryl Dunn, had also pulled a long
face and said while suppressing his anger,” You’re still too young for this role, Ms. Wolfenden.” Trevor
asked coldly, “Ms. Wolfenden truly lives up to her reputation of being the general manager of this
company. That’s very impressive of you, huh? You executed your decision without prior approval from
the board, and you’re trying to comfort us now? “Aren’t you being a little naive, Ms. Wolfenden?” Liam
said in a deep voice, “I supported Sadie’s decision.” Upon hearing that, Trevor sneered in contempt
and said, “That’s very impressive of you, Mr. Wolfenden! Don’t forget that the company’s money is not
all yours!” Chandler’s expression was gloomy, and he angrily said, “I would like to withdraw my
investment. I invested in the company for profit and not to end myself!” ‘If I don’t pull out now, it’ll only
be a matter of time before Wolfenden Corp.’s downfall due to the capital chain’s fracture. ‘The right
thing to do now is to cut the losses in time!” Sadie’s expression changed drastically. ‘Isn’t the
disinvestment going to make the situation worse?’ Trevor’s eyes were glistening. Soon afterward, he
took a glance at Miles. Both of them understood each other without speaking. “The Lawson family is
pulling out as well.” Upon saying that, Trevor looked toward the major shareholders and said smilingly,
“Fellow friends, why don’t we pull out together? I’m planning on establishing a new construction
company. “I have Westcity’s Plot No. 8 project assigned to me, and my company will most certainly
flourish with the project. You’re welcome to join, everyone.” Liam and Sadie’s expressions changed. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
‘Trevor… The Lawsons are really quite something! Chandler’s eyes lit up as he asked, “Are you
serious, Mr. Lawson?” “Of course, I have Westcity’s Plot No. 8 with me, and it will definitely bring profit,”
said Trevor confidently. Chandler said instantly, “I shall invest in Mr. Lawson’s new company then! I
won’t sustain Wolfenden Corp.’s losses!” Daryl appeared to be struggling inwardly, but soon, another
shareholder took up Trevor’s offer.
He exhaled slowly and said, “Count me in, Mr. Lawson.” “Uncle Daryl!” Sadie looked at Daryl in
disbelief. Daryl had a rather close relationship with her father.
Daryl disregarded Sadie and Liam. ‘I’m doing it for a living, friendship… We’ll talk about friendship
when I have money.’ “If I don’t have money, friendship is useless.” Other than Liam and Sadie, 8 out of
the 15 shareholders expressed their wish to pull out of Wolfenden Corp. with Trevor!
