Chapter 1660

Stella nodded, “I understand. That’s why I’ve brought a lawyer. In the event that any Vinci Rivera secrets were to be leaked to my father, and he uses them for personal gain, I’m prepared to compensate Vinci Rivera for triple the losses. I’m also willing to bear all legal liabilities associated with such actions. Relevant authorities have frozen my properties and assets. Should the described scenario unfold, these frozen assets can be directly leveraged to compensate your company through a mortgage arrangement with the bank.”

“The total value is approximately twelve billion dollars,” Ted added.

Everyone in the room was left speechless. While twelve billion dollars might not be significant for a company like Vinci Rivera, Stella’s firm stance was equivalent to her solemn pledge on behalf of the entire Saun family. This inherently diminished the questioning voices.

Stella looked at Chandler, “May I take my seat now, Mr. Kane?”

Chandler was not happy. He let out a slight hum as a response.

Stella took off her coat, draped it over the back of her chair, and settled into her seat.

Ted and the middle-aged man accompanying him sat down beside Aldor.

With everyone in place, the meeting officially began.

The initial thirty minutes of the discussion consisted of reports from different departments detailing their weekly activities. Upon their completion, the meeting transitioned to the main agenda. Several executives outlined accusations against Alex following Keegan’s incident, including delayed research and development and a lack of motivation.

In the end, they concluded with the importance of leadership and order. They proposed appointing a new team leader for Alex, who would continue the research and development progress.

After the executives had their say, Chandler turned to Stella and asked, “What do you think, Ms. Hall?”

“I find it acceptable,” Stella replied calmly.

Chandler was momentarily taken aback by her straightforward response.

“However,” Stella paused for a moment, then continued,” there’s something I need to inform everyone in advance to avoid future problems and shifting of responsibilities.”

Chandler felt her words were ambiguous. He looked at her and inquired, “What is it?”

“I think it would be best for Mr. Powell to address this with everyone,” stated Stella.

With that said, she looked at the middle-aged man behind her. He nodded, and with Aldor’s assistance, they began the presentation.

Others gazed at the middle-aged man and whispered to each other in hushed tones.

“Is that Jasper Powell?”

“Jasper Powell? The founder of Semiconductor Technology?

“It seems to be him. I saw him once before at a business reception. He had a good relationship with Mr.

Kane.”

“What is he doing here?”

“He’s probably here at Aldor’s request for support.”

“With Keegan absent, I doubt anyone can cope with the overwhelming pressure imposed by Chandler.”

The entire group was restless.

After a moment, the projector lit up, and the screen displayed the presentation slides.

Jasper humbly nodded to the crowd and said, “Apologies for the delay.”

With that, he began to showcase the contents of the documents.

Most people initially paid little attention, thinking it was just Aldor’s way of resisting the company’s decision to appoint a new team leader. However, as more content was revealed, everyone’s expressions gradually changed.
