Chapter 802: Chapter 802 Admit Their Mistakes

The Valiant East office had always been upward and lively. However, it was gloomy and depressing at the moment.

Such emotions enveloped everyone in the office.

Several shareholders looked at Nick with concern and said, “You have the most shares among us, so you have the most rights here. What do you think we should do?”

Nick’s expression did not change, “That woman. We’ve already visited her at her house, but she had still turned a blind eye! She’s so rude!”

The rest of the shareholders also chimed in, “That’s right! She’s just a widow with two children. What’s there to be proud of?”

“She wants to go plead her multiple times, eh? That’s impossible!”

“Let’s see who can last longer.”

The older men were discussing among themselves indignantly.

“However, It’s possible that she doesn’t have any feelings for Valiant East. Our assets are all in there. If the company continues on like this, we’ll lose all our assets and stocks!”

This sentence immediately pulled everyone, who had righteous looks on their faces just now, back from their dreams.

“What do you think we should do?” Everyone looked at the person who had raised the concern.

“In my opinion, she won’t leave Valiant East Group behind! Not to mention, she has two children. Besides, wasn’t it on the news? The relationship between Amos and her was extremely good. She will not be able to watch the Valiant East go down like this! If we are sincere enough, maybe she might come back?”

“Sincere? Aren’t we being sincere enough? We’ve even tried personally visiting her!”

“We went to her because we wanted her help. Be honest. Who here actually respects her? Who here sincerely wants her help?”

Everyone kept quiet!

Nick snorted angrily and said, “She’s only a woman. What else does she want? Yes, we’re asking her for help. What about it? Does she want an entourage to follow her around?”

“However, anyone can see that you all will turn your backs on her after she’s done helping out!”

“So what? Do you really want us to regard her as the president of this company? A woman wants to boss us around? That’s impossible!”

“Yes, that’s impossible!”

Everyone looked at each other, refusing to give in.

Finally, the young man who had spoken up stopped talking. “Forget what I’ve just said! Honestly, as long as she’s capable, what’s the difference between having a man or a woman to lead us? Do you really want to see your wealth shrinking?”

No one spoke up after that!

Upon seeing that, the young man took his leave.

After he had left, everyone looked at Nick and asked, “What do you think we should do?”

Nick’s expression changed again, “What if she refuses to help out even if we plead her to?”

“It’s hard to say. Maybe she’ll be more willing to if we show a little more sincerity?”

“Why don’t we just abandon the conditions stated by Sebastian before this? Truthfully, if the performance of Valiant East goes up again, it won’t be a huge difference.”

Everyone grew silent again!

“So… Do we really want her to lead us? Are we willing to sincerely listen to her orders in the future?”

Everyone looked at Nick and said, “Can you do that? She is just a woman…”

Nick was so angry that he was about to explode, “Why are you looking at me? I’m not the only one who dislikes the fact that she’s a woman! Besides, we don’t know if she can achieve any actual results. How do you expect me to respect her? That’d be impossible!”

“We didn’t mean that. What we mean is that we should give her compliments first and then ask her for help. By the time the company is doing better, we’ll decide if we want her to lead us.”

“In your dreams! She’s incredibly smart. If she really were willing to do so, she wouldn’t be dragging us on until now!”

“Then, we should be more sincere and agree to her request. In the future… If it doesn’t work out, we will oppose her.”

Everyone immediately nodded, “That’s a good idea…”

Nick frowned and said, “Don’t you think it’s a little despicable?”

Everyone was speechless.

“Then, what do you think we should do?”

Nick snorted and said, “I won’t do something this despicable!”

As they were discussing, the secretary, Archer, came in to report, “Dear shareholders, I just got the news that another food critic has posted a review of Valiant East Catering in the newspapers. He criticized us for insulting such a delicacy…”

Nick’s face changed and said, “These people should mind their own business.”

“What should we do?”

Nick gritted his teeth and said, “Why aren’t you all going?”

Everyone was stunned, “Where are we going?”

“To ask for help!”

Everyone kept quiet.

Didn’t he say that he wouldn’t be so despicable? What was going on?

…

A moment later, dozens of shareholders of Valiant East all stood outside Clearwater Bay. It was drizzling, and the autumn breeze was cold.

They stood outside, and their faces looked worse than the dark sky.

When Cindy reported the situation to Eudora, she was reading a book with Sugar Bun. Hearing so, she just nodded and said, “Got it.”

Cindy knew what was going on. Eudora had mentioned before she would not meet them even if they came, so she didn’t feel surprised. She just went on with her work.

When Sugar Bun finished reading the book, Eudora got up and looked out of the window.

At the same time, the rain was getting heavier, but the shareholders were still standing there. It seemed that they really were getting more and more anxious.

She came back and made herself a cup of tea. She then took a sip of it.

The cup that she was using had often been used by Amos in the past. After taking a sip, she whispered, “Hubby, do you think it’s too fast?”

There was no response, but she wore a confident smile on her face.

Outside the door, the shareholders, who had been waiting for a long time, gradually began to grow impatient.

“See? I knew that she’s malicious. She just wants to torment us.”

“That’s right. It’s such a cold day. How much longer do we have to stand here?”

Nick was also furious, but he got even angrier upon hearing the conversation between those people.

“What do you want then? Why don’t you think of a way!”

The crowd stopped talking again!

In the end, the young man, who had spoken up in the beginning, said, “I think it’s best if you all give up on your schemes! Can’t you all be more sincere? You’re asking for help, but you’re also having ulterior motives. Do you really think she’s a fool?”

No one spoke after that!

“Should we stop having ulterior motives then?”

“I think so! If all of you agree, I’ll go negotiate.”

Everyone looked at Nick and said, “What do you think? You’re the most qualified one among us!”

Just as a gust of wind blew, Nick shivered and said, “D*mn it. Do whatever you want. If she can manage the company well, I will acknowledge her!”

Only then did the young man say, “Then, I’ll go talk to her!”

When Eudora saw a young shareholder walking towards her, she put down the cup.

She told Cindy, “When a person comes later, just let him in!”

Cindy was puzzled, “Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t meet any of them?”

“Yes, I did say that. However, now, I can meet them.”
