The Runaway Groom Chapter 250


    Chapter 250


    Once the first board member loyal to Isaac spoke out, more board members nodded. Some rose to


    their feet and dered their support for him to keep his position as CEO.


    They had all seen Isaac’s ability, and knew that they were only paid dividends despite holding small


    portions of thepany’s shares because Isaac constantly led Sky Group to new heights.


    On the other hand, would they really be able to enjoy the same benefits without hard work if there was


    a change in leadership? They were naturally suspicious. Not to


    mention, Ian’s crime called his father’s character into


    question.


    That being said, Henry only called for the board meeting because he had privately contracted many


    board


    members, asking that they endorse Greg–that was why Greg appeared so confident.


    Naturally, Henry would rather support Ian because Ian was young and more or less capable.


    Unfortunately, Ian was now under investigation for his casino ship. There was no way Ian could be


    here, just as the board was unlikely to endorse a person with a potential criminal


    record.


    Thus, Henry was forced to endorse Greg instead.


    “I think Greg will make a better leader. He’s older and experienced – he won’t lose out to Isaac in any


    way, and he’s also Isaac’s uncle. Isaac should voluntarily step down in favor of his uncle instead of


    hogging it!”


    “What are you talking about? Does age determine merit?!


    Someone snapped in protest right there and then.


    Ability speaks above all else. After goofing off for years, Greg won’t even know what the market looks


    like these days!”


    The spacious conference room turned quite hectic, and the board member endorsing Greg was


    immediately silenced. Even with an estate passed down through generations and ruing enormous


    wealth in the process, it took hard work from each family head to retain it. Isaac, however, was the one


    who took things further. His feats were irrefutable despite his youth!


    “I think experience speaks here…”


    “What experience? Greg’s just older–is there anything that makes him better than Isaac?”


    Someone tried to speak for Greg again, but was once


    again silenced immediately.


    Even if Isaac knew that his grandfather wanted him out, he never contacted the board members or


    asked them to endorse himself. After all, he had measures in ce. The title of Sky Group’s CEO did


    not matter to him.


    He was, however, deeply disappointed in Henry. It wouldn’t be a far cry to say that he was now


    convinced


    that every Jefferson is a cold–blooded reptilian; even himself!


    Not bothered to keep listening, Ian rose to his feet.


    Inform me when you havee to a decision, Mr. Henry


    Jefferson.”


    “We’re having a board meeting!” Henry snapped angrily. “How could you leave as you please?”


    Henry was sure Isaac had bribed the people siding with


    him at the moment to fend Henry off. Leaving the meeting room was an obvious show of disrespect–a


    gesture showing that Isaac thought nothing of Henry!


    Isaac leveled a cool gaze at Henry. “Whether I keep my job or not means nothing to me.”


    In fact, Sky Group was nothing to him as he had been diverting various businesses to his own


    company


    overseas.


    If he stayed, Sky Group would remain the giant it was–if he left, Sky Group would be nothing.


    “You can havepany if you want, ” Isaac said evenly and casually.


    Henry was stunned, but he quickly came to his senses.


    Was Isaac doing this on purpose?


    Some of the board members were vehemently supporting him, after all…


    Henry naturally doubted that Isaac didn’t do anything behind the scenes, or that he didn’t care about


    the Jefferson estate and being the CEO of Sky Group.


    The board members were certainly no fools–they were smart enough to know Isaac’s worth, and


    became frantic the instant they heard that he might leave.


    After all, Sky Group would copse if Isaac really left. They therefore wanted nothing less than to make


    him


    stay.


    “Henry, look–thepany’s stocks fell because Ian was messing around, and the media caught him in


    the act. That boy should take responsibility, but since he’s under


    investigation, Greg should offer us an exnation — Ian is his son, after all.”


    Henry was left frowning, while Grey finally exploded. Ian may have caused trouble, but Isaac is in


    charge here! Shouldn’t he be doing something to mitigate our losses? I’ve even heard that he doesn’t


    care at all, and simply left it with PR! Those useless scumbags don’t even know what’s going on, let


    alone draft a n! That’s why we’re in this mess!”


    The conference room went silent, because Greg was


    actually right.


    Isaac was in charge, but he really did nothing to curb the issue and instead allowedpany stocks to


    keep falling.


    On the other hand, Isaac started to head towards the

    door. After all, everyone at present was simply running in


    circles.


    Greg mmed his hand on the table and bellowed, “Stop right there, Isaac Jefferson! Are you giving us


    an attitude when your grandfather is still here? Where are your manners? I’m your uncle too–do you


    think you can leave just because you want to?!”
