Chapter 989 Dispute In The Meeting


    Donna was still oblivious about George''s proposal to Holley. Sensing that S was all but ready to give


    up on George, she had spent quite some time talking to herst night. She persuaded the girl not to


    lose heart and promised that she would help bring George and her together.


    Donna was ready to take some action to break the rtionship between Holley and her son.


    She woke up early in the morning, put on her best business suit and wore delicate make-up before


    making a beeline for BM Corporation.


    George and Holley were in the middle of a meeting with the shareholders of thepany when Donna


    barged into the conference room to everyone''s immense surprise.


    Since those present were top management staff, most of them knew Donna. They smiled at her politely


    to show their respect because they knew that she was the individual who was really in charge of the


    However, George and Holley knitted their brows at her intrusion.


    Standing up, George frowned at his mother and said acidly, "What are you doing here, Mom? We are in


    a meeting. If you have something important to tell me, please wait in my office."


    He was anxious for his mother to leave since he thought that she hade to talk to him about S.


    Donna sneered and said to George, "I have nothing personal to say to you. I havee here to know


    how thepany is doing."


    "Knock it off, Mom. I am serious," George retorted. He was getting frustrated by her presence.


    Oblivious to his words, Donna sat down in George''s seat. With a resigned look, he pulled up another


    chair and sat next to his mother.


    Donna nced around at the shareholders who were present and said, "Please, carry on with the


    meeting. From today, I will be present at the office. We will be meeting frequently. So you don''t have to


    be overcautious around me."


    George suddenly felt a rush of relief wash over him. He recalled that Donna had mentioned this to him.


    But after what had happened between him and S that night, he had forgotten about it.


    The rest of the staff at the table started whispering to one another. Holley couldn''t hold back her


    displeasure any longer. Controlling her anger, she tried to sound as polite as she possibly could, "You


    surprised us, Aunt. Why didn''t you discuss this with George before deciding toe to work? After all,


    this isn''t some trivial matter."


    Although Donna owned BM Corporation, George was the one taking care of the business of its branch


    in Y City. ''He and I have devoted a lot to thepany and it has thrived so far. I can''t let Donna take it


    away from us as she pleases, '' Holley decided.


    "And what makes you think that I haven''t talked to him about this?" Donna retorted gruffly, sparing a


    cold nce at Holley.


    Holley froze for a moment. She turned to look at George. He nodded slightly, confirming that Donna


    had already filled him in.


    She couldn''t help but draw a bitter smile. ''I am just an outsider, while he is her son. He doesn''t have to


    tell me everything, '' she thought.


    After George''s proposal, she had thought that he wouldn''t keep anything from her. It turned out that she


    was a fool to think that anything had changed. She was still kept in the dark and she had ridiculed


    herself.


    Donna cast a cold nce at Holley once again and said, "I have been absent from work for these past


    days, so I don''t know how thepany is doing at the moment. I would like to be filled in. I hope the


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    heads of the departments wouldn''t mind giving me a brief report. Let''s start with Miss Ye."


    "Me?" Holley asked, dumbfounded. She finally understood why Donna had returned to thepany.


    ''She wants to put me down, '' Holley said to herself.


    She scoffed. She didn''t think it was a good idea to turn against Donna in front of all the shareholders.


    That would just make thepany look bad. So, she gave a brief report about the developments in her


    department. But of course, she chose to hide some of the details.


    Donna didn''t make any immediatements. After a pause, she asked, "Is there an employee in your


    department named Susan Su?"


    "Yes." Holley felt her heart clenched when Donna brought up Susan. Without sounding too obvious,


    she asked, "What about her?"


    "Well, it''s nothing important," Donna replied tly as she staredzily at Holley. "Cary came to me for a


    favor. It seems that Susan is his girlfriend and he wants us to terminate Susan''s contract. I agreed.


    Deal with this matter immediately and send the contract to Mr. Su as soon as possible."


    "What are you talking about?" Holley burst with rage. ring at Donna, she seethed with


    uncontroble anger, "Who gave you the rights to poke your nose in matters of my department? Susan


    is my employee. It''s my call to decide whether she should stay or leave. Who do you think you are?


    You cannot make decisions for me!"


    Donna stared at Holley in absolute disdain and asked, "Is there a problem?"


    ''Looks like I was too nice to her that she has forgotten her ce. I will show her who is in charge of the


    "Yes, there is!" Holley raised her voice as she pped away George''s hand which had attempted to


    hold her back. Donna snorted at her son''s disgraceful behavior as she said coldly, "Let her be, George.


    I''d like to hear what she has to say."


    "Holley, please don''t do this," George pleaded, looking sideways at the other members present in the


    hall. They were very intently listening to the banter. He tried to pull her back again. ''We''re going to be


    married and we will be a family soon. I can''t watch her fighting with my mother. We will be a


    "Let me go!" Holley shouted at George as she shook his hand off. "I need to make my stand clear to


    her once and for all."


    With stern eyes, she turned to face Donna and sneered, "I admit that thepany is yours. But


    George and I started this branch and we have done so much for its growth. I don''t care that you


    meddle with you son''s matters because you have the right to do so. But you can''t intervene in my


    business."


    When Donna didn''t respond, she continued with a toneced in cold warning, "Remember that I


    initiated this department and I take care of everything that goes on in there. It''s my call whether Susan


    stays or leaves. You have no right to get involved. I hope you understand. Am I making this clear to


    you?


    It''s true that you are my boss. But I am telling you that you have no say in my department."
