Every directors and shareholders of Heaven Star Enterprise including Chairman Lu were now gathered in the conference waiting for the CEO to arrive.


    Some were already in a foul mood especially those directors who insisted on having this emergency meeting. They thought Tristan had intentionally nned toete or arrivest in the meeting.


    But in fact there was still five minutes left before the scheduled time of this meeting to start. Soon, Tristan arrived together with his assistant, Matthew, who was holding a pile of documents in his hand.


    Tristan headed straight to his executive chair beside Grandpa Lu, ignoring the ridiculing looks other directors were throwing at him. Matthew followed him behind.


    Grandpa Lu just frowned upon seeing Tristan''s nonchnt behavior. He was wondering how his grandson would respond and react during this meeting. This emergency meeting would clearly tackle Tristan''s scandal video.


    Grandpa Lu was looking forward to how Tristan would be able to resolve this issue and how he would deal with the disappointment and unhappiness of the other directors and shareholders because of his viral video.


    "Since, everyone is already here. We can now start our meeting and proceed to the main agenda. Grandpa Lu said, after everyone was all settled in their respective seats.


    The six directors whom Mr. Miller calledst night, exchanged meaningful nces with each other. They were now preparing tounch an attack and target Tristan. Their main goal was to remove Tristan in his CEO position and rmend Andrew for the position.


    They already set their script including what they have to say in order to show others that Tristan was not suited anymore to keep his current position. They would also need to provoke him so that Tristan would act like a stubborn fellow which would give them more reasons to rece him as the CEO of thepany.


    Director Go was the one who would do more if the talking while the other five aplices just had to agree and support him. They were still plotting the scenario in their minds when Grandpa Lu spoke up, catching the attention of everyone present there.


    "Everyone summoned here for the emergency meeting l. I believe most of you are aware of the reason why we all gathered here today."


    After hearing Grandpa Lu''s statement, everyone averted their gaze at Tristan. This was signifying that most of them were thinking the same thing.


    On the other hand, Tristan just remained calm and maintained hisposure. He seemed that he was not a little bit worried about the result of this meeting. He was quiet and rxed at his own seat, flipping and scanning the folder in his hand.


    His carefree and nonchnt behavior made Director Go and his aplices feel irritated. They nned to provoke him but it appeared that they were the ones being provoked and getting annoyed by Tristan. The funniest thing was the meeting had just started.


    "Director Go, since you were the one who suggested having this emergency meeting, I will now give you the floor. You may speak your thoughts now in front of everyone." Grandpa Lu said, letting Director Go to speak up.


    "Thank you, Chairman," Director Go politely said to Grandpa Lu before proceeding to his opening statement.


    "First, I would like to thank everyone foring here. I believe all of us here are aware of the problem our dear CEO is currently facing. I felt sorry for what happened to our dear CEO. That''s very unfortunate. And because of that I am afraid that this might cause some troubles for ourpany. So we are here to n a suitable strategy to avoid that from happening or lessen the damage to ourpany''s name."


    "Does everyone agree about this? Please raise your hands to confirm." Director Go was trying to see the opinion of the other directors in this matter.


    Almost everyone raised their hands in agreement. Tristan could only twitch his lips in a mischievous smile. He wanted tomend Director Go. He was good at ying and sugar-coating his words, hiding his true motives very well. It looked like he was just concerned about thepany but the truth was he was just doing this to attack and stab Tristan at his back.


    Tristan knew that he didn''t mean it when he said he felt sorry for him. Because if he did then he would not initiate this meeting in the first ce.


    "I think let''s hear our CEO''s thoughts about this issue. Maybe he already had a n in his mind." Director Go said, challenging Tristan.


    Tristan just smiled at them confidently, not even feeling nervous nor affected by this matter. Soon, Tristan grabbed this opportunity tounch a counterattack against his enemies. He was certain that those people who tried to scheme against him would be caught off guard after he spoke.


    "Thank you so much, Director Go. I really appreciate your effort for doing this. But first, allow me to apologize and exin why I came here a little bitte. Oh I am notte. I just camest." Tristan chuckled after emphasizing hisst words.


    The other directors who have no issue against Tristan joined him as theyughed together at his sense of humor.


    "I just finalized my report regarding the field research I conducted in Oceaniz City for the past few days. I was in a hurry to finish it by today so that I could submit it to our Chairman."


    Tristan raised the folder in his hand saying, "Now, here it is. Myprehensive report."


    He ced it in front of Grandpa Lu who was just looking at him confusedly.


    After doing that, Tristan continued.


    "So now, let''s talk about my viral video. Hmm. I became famous once again. But anyway… don''t worry too much. The video was taken down already. It will just take a matter of time and people will just eventually stop talking about it. I assure you that this will not affect ourpany''s image nor our sales or profits."


    Director Go and his aplices just raised their brows while giving Tristan a mocking look. They were about to disagree but Tristan continued his statement.


    "But to make all of you feel at ease, then I will leave my CEO position for a while and take a one month leave. I will just wait for this issue to calm down. So, now I am officially informing everyone here that I already applied for one month leave to our HR department. Only Chairman Lu''s approval is what I am awaiting for this to take effect starting today." After saying that, Tristan asked Matthew to give him the leave form. Then he handed it over to Grandpa Lu.


    The room was suddenly engulfed by deafening silence. They didn''t expect that Tristan would initiate to take his one month leave just because of the issue.


    Ever since he became the CEO of thispany, he never cked off nor took a leave of absence for that long. Instead, they saw his dedication, hard work and effort to make thispany be more sessful. So most of the directors and other shareholders who admired his capability as their CEO were shocked about his decision. Grandpa Lu was also not an exemption.


    Even Director Go and his aplices didn''t see thising. They thought Tristan would be stubborn and be shameless to keep his position as the CEO despite the bad reputation he was having right now. This was an unexpected turn of events.
