Chapter 280

“What are you talking about, what’s wrong with the current Finance Department? Are you planning to replace the entire staff with your own people? Don’t forget that you are only a temporary director. Aunt Sofia is the official director.”

Belinda is a spoiled brat who knew nothing about the world of finance. All she knew was how to put on pretty makeup and make life difficult for Hayden.

However, these were the hardest kind of people to deal with.

Because they were unreasonable.

Hayden glanced at Belinda, “Well, since I’m now the head of the board, if only temporarily, you have to listen to me. The CFOs are too senior for the position, plus they have a complicated history and network with the company. I don’t think it’s good to keep them in the position. They need to be replaced.”

“I disagree.” Said Belinda arrogantly, “My uncle, my father and everyone at this meeting will not agree with you either.”

“This is not a vote, it’s a warning.” Hayden closed the files in front of him and told them, “You don’t agree with me? Try to get better results.”

Hayden then left the meeting room without looking back.

Anna, Hayden’s assistant, quickly announced that the meeting was over for the day.

The meeting didn’t even last five minutes, and it ended because of Belinda. The elders didn’t dare raise their voices. It was no wonder that the Downey Group was in trouble and that the break in financing could easily bankrupt them.

Hayden came out of the meeting room with the wind in his hair.

“Hold it right there, Hayden!”

Belinda shouted Hayden’s name from afar. She sounded furious.

“How can I help you?” Hayden turned smartly on his heels and calmly faced the furious Belinda.

“You didn’t want to help the Downey Group, did you? You wanted the Downey Group to go out of business, didn’t you?”

“Stop joking, I’m a shareholder in the group now, what good does it do me if the Downey Group goes bankrupt?”.

“God only knows what you’re planning.” Belinda looked sulky, “Don’t think everyone has to listen to you. You are a shareholder, but so are my father, my uncle and I, the sum of our shares is no less than yours. Why should the company listen to you? Who do you think you are? Don’t forget that the ST Group no longer supports you. Joseph Beckham is just a scumbag who was kicked out of his family.”

The relationship between Joseph and Hayden was no secret. A lot of people knew about it, people found out even when Joseph fought over Hayden with his family. It became the most talked about gossip in town.

As an elegant man who was always on top of the world, Joseph had high standards, but now he needed to depend on Hayden. Joseph’s situation was now a big scene for those who were scolded or insulted by Joseph.

Hayden wanted to say something, but felt someone put a hand on his shoulder. A cold and familiar voice rose from beside him, “Before you address someone as a scumbag, shouldn’t you think about how you got that small amount of stock you are now holding in your hands?”

Joseph put his arm around Hayden and looked at Belinda coolly. Joseph still looked elegant and arrogant, even if they had insulted the Beckham Family.

“Joseph?” Belinda panicked for a second, then quickly calmed down, “This is the Downey Group we’re talking about. What’s it got to do with a stranger like you?”

Joseph gave Belinda a cold look, then looked her in the eye. “It has nothing to do with a stranger, but it has everything to do with the new CFO.”
