“Ladies and gentlemen, we all make up the Bryant Group, and it’s up to us to safeguard thepany.
Having seen the recent events, we can’t just sit back and do nothing.
Concerning the newly appointed CEO, Marina Bryant, everyone has witnessed what she has done.
She is incapable of Leading thepany to a brighter future. I, on the other hand, hold a 36% stake,
even higher than the former majority shareholder, Liza Bryant. I’m currently the biggest shareholder
and I put myself forward to take over the position of CEO in thepany.”
Then he paused and Looked around, waiting for his apuse. Suddenly the door was shoved open
and several bodyguards walked in with an elderly woman with gray hair and a gloomy aura.
Although Liza had left the limelight for years, her prestige stillmanded respect. Her entrance
silenced the meeting room. She walked in with a timid-Looking Marina and Laura.
Jefferson’s eyes widened in shock for a second the moment he saw Liza, but then he quickly narrowed
them again and put on a fake warm smile and greeted her politely, “Madam, you are quite elderly now,
why would you stress yourself in attending the shareholders’ meeting?”
Liza’s eyes flickered over him disdainfully then she snorted. “You’ve been in the Bryant Group since the
days my son was still here,
Jefferson, and I always respected you. Howe you’ve be so ambitious now and are trying to
snatch my granddaughter’s seat for yourself?”
Jefferson’s smile faded. No Longer bothering to conceal his intentions, he ridiculed, “We backed
Winifred in establishing thepany because he was capable of doing so. Now, the Bryant family has
chosen an unfit sessor named Marco to be the CEO, ignoring the wisdom and experience of
us elders. We aren’t allowed to voice our opinions, huh?”
Liza’s expression turned grim as Jefferson went on, his voice dripping disdain.
“still, Marco managed to bring prosperity to the Bryant Group so I brushed over it. But now, allowing
someone Like Marina, who’s more a liability than an asset to take over the group? Is your intention to
destroy the Bryant Group?” Jefferson sighed, feigning care for thepany. “It is not my intention to
have a fallout with you, madam.
However, you’ve seen all the messes Marina has made since bing CEO.
ALL I’m doing is for the sake of thepany. Would you want to watch it get destroyed under her
leadership?”

Marina turned red with anger behind Liza. She was about to retort but was quickly shut down by a
sharp nce from Liza. She then quietly bent her head in defeat.
After subduing Marina, Liza spoke, her tone dripping with arrogance.
“Thepany is called the Bryant Group because it belongs to the
ninjanovel
Bryant family, Jefferson. You know exactly what you’re nning. You don’t need to fake this righteous
act.”
Jefferson shed her another fake smile. “Why don’t we ask the shareholders if they’d be willing to
ept an ipetent waste as the
CEO? I am not here to seek your opinion, madam. I speak based on my shares. Removing Marina is
not out of the question.”
Liza sneered, “Based on your shares, you say? Unfortunately, Marina transferred 10% of her shares to
me. Holding 45% of the shares, I remain thergest shareholder. It remains up to me to decide who
bes the Bryant Group’s CEO, and it has nothing to do with an outsider such like you.”
“What?” Jefferson paled, and his eyes widened as he stared at Liza in shocked disbelief.
He didn’t anticipate this move! And he knew that even if he tried to gather the scattered shares of the
remaining shareholders, he still wouldn’t surpass Liza’s. He had failed!
A while passed with Jefferson stuck with a grim expression on his face, then finally he turned to Liza
and said harshly, “You’re in power.
Fine, I won’t touch the CEO position. However, I remain the second-Largest shareholder. That much
remains true. Therefore, I expect an exnation for the significant drop in the stock prices of the
