Chapter 49 When Are You Returning the Shares?
Robert’s face was red with anger. Not only was ire sitting beside him, but
she had also seized control of the room. From the moment she stepped into the
room, Robert waspletely ignored.
He mmed a hand down on the conference table. “ire, I am your father and the chairman of this
company …”
“Dad,” ire casually interrupted. “Mywyer has approached you already, so
when are you returning the shares to me?”
That …
With how many shareholders were watching, Robert could not find a way to escape. Moreover, ire
had a lot of ckmail on him. If any of that evidence were shown, he would be stripped of his role as
chairman and put on trial. He might even end up in jail.
Backed into a corner, he had no choice but to concede. “Since your mother has
stated in the will the shares are yours, I will naturally return them to
you.”
“Good.” ire smiled and beckoned Matt closer. Matt then ced a share
transfer agreement on the table in front of Robert.
Robert was so angry that he could die. He had not expected ire toepletely prepared. It
seemed like the shareholder meeting she suggested was just a trap she had set. Her goal was to force
him to transfer the shares over to her while the other shareholders watched.

He gritted his teeth and took out a pen to reluctantly sign the agreement.
Once Robert’s full name was written on the document, ire picked up the document and handed it to
Matt. “Thanks, Dad.”
With the share transfer agreement in hand, Matt ndly stated, “Now that Miss ire Donovan owns
26% of allpany shares, she is now Alpha Ventures‘rgest shareholder. She has the right to
demand Mr. Robert Donovan to resign so that she may be chairman of thepany.”
However, Robert had not spent decades working in the corporate world for
nothing.
He already had a trump card hidden up his sleeves.
“Wait.”
The shareholders watched him like they were watching a shower. They were all waiting to see a fight
break out between ire and him.
ire gently tapped a finger against the table. With the calm look on her face, she looked like she had
everything under control.
“Well, Dad? What are your conditions?”
Robert found the way ire called him “Dad” extremely annoying.
He coldly snorted before saying with all the confidence that befit apany chairman, “You’re still
young, ire. Everyone worries if you take over Alpha Ventures just like that. As the secondrgest
shareholder of thepany, I have the right to test you, to see if you have the capability to

ire raised an eyebrow and nonchntly responded, “That makes sense.“”
Robert had not expected ire to fall for his trap that easily.
Ha!
Well, what happened next would not be his fault.
“We have been fighting to get Solstice Industries to work with us for a project in Belshire. If you can
secure that project, I will resign as chairman without question and fully support you to be chairman.”
Solstice Industries?
The shareholders‘ eyes went wide with disbelief as they stared at Robert.
Four years ago, Alpha Ventures had made an enemy out of Solstice Industries While no one knew
what happened, Mr. Anderson of Solstice Industries woul always look furious whenever Alpha Ventures
or the Donovans were mentioned i conversation.
No one from Alpha Ventures could step foot in the Solstice Industries office, let alone arrange a
meeting with Mr. Anderson. This was clearly a bid to humiliate ire!
Was Robert even her father? What an incredible trap he had set her up for.
Upon hearing the name Solstice Industries, ire’s face turned pale. Four years ago, the man Alice
and Robert sold her to was Mr. Anderson of Solstice

The look on her face made Robert grin in satisfaction. “Well? Scared?”
ire remained silent as she tightly pursed her lips.

Just then, Amos seized his chance to chime in with a chuckle. “ire. I have nothing against you, but I
think your father is right. You’re still young. You need to prove that you are capable of taking charge of
Alpha Ventures.”
Charles immediately agreed. “That’s right. We might not own a lot of thepany’s shares, but we still
rely on the dividends from Alpha Ventures to support our lives. We can’t let you take charge without
knowing what you are capable of. What if you end up bankrupting thepany? How are we going ↑

“ire, if you can’t do that, then you will take your shares and just wait for your dividends. The
chairman is not a role you should covet.”
“Hehe…”

Suddenly, ire, who was lost in her thoughts, began tough. She nced
at the shareholders in the room and asked with a smile, “Are you all going to
support me once I secure the project?”

Her words made it clear that she was talking over Robert. Amos immediately nodded. “That’s right! I
always keep my word. As long as you can secure the project, I’ll support you.”
“Me too!”
“Naturally, I will support you if you are capable.”
The shareholders all nodded in agreement.
Robert realized something was off about the situation. ire had not secured
a contract yet, so why were these old farts siding with her?
“Wait,” he called out, interrupting the conversation. He then said with hostility clear in his voice, “We
need a time limit, don’t we? We can afford
to wait a month or two, but we can’t wait forever. What if you take a year or
more?”
“There’s no need.”
ire lowered her head and adjusted her cuffs before elegantly getting to

her feet. Then, she raised three fingers up in the air. “I swear that in three days I will secure a contract
from Solstice Industries. If I do not get it within three days, I will never step foot in Alpha Ventures
again.”
With one final smile directed at everyone, she led her group of five men out
of the conference room.
Amos blinked and took a sip of his herbal tea to calm his nerves. Then, he heaved a sigh. “That girl
seems different.”
Charles nodded. “Yes. She has the same gut and spirit as her mother.”
Robert kicked away the chair ire had upied and furiously red at the men. “What do you mean
by that, Amos, Charles?”
“Nothing much,” Amos replied with a chuckle as he put down his ss. “Mr. Donovan, I was helping
you just now. Everyone present knows that Solstice Industries holds a grudge against us. ire only
agreed to the challenge because she did not know that.”
As for ying both sides and all that nonsense, well, he was the best at that game.
