âWhat did you say!â
Julius Reedâs eyebrows furrowed slightly.
âI said, I want to exercise my rights as a director and oust the chairman!â Zade Radcliffe said with a cold laugh.
His original agreement was to give the chairman position to Quella Radcliffe, which he had already done.
But as the former chairman, Zade Radcliffe held 20% of the companyâs shares, Otis Radcliffe still had 15%, and other members of the Radcliffe Clan held about 40%.
As long as he proposed to oust Quella Radcliffe, no one could stop him.
Although Quella Radcliffe was the current chairman, she didnât own a single share of the company.
Zade Radcliffe had foreseen this situation from the start, so he didnât give any shares to his granddaughter!
âGrandfatherâ¦â
Upon hearing this, Otis Radcliffeâs face turned extremely awkward.
âGrandson, donât worry! Letâs have a vote in a bit and see who the real chairman is!â
Zade Radcliffe walked over with large strides and helped Otis Radcliffe up.
The room suddenly fell silent.
Logically, at such an exciting moment, members of the Radcliffe Family should have been cheering.
But in stark contrast, these people all bowed their heads, seemingly avoiding Zade Radcliffeâs gaze.
âGrandfather! How could you do this!â
Quella Radcliffe stood up angrily, pointing at Zade Radcliffe as she questioned him, âAm I not your own granddaughter? Why can Otis receive your affection, but not me! Now you treat me as if Iâm your enemy! Why!â
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Being a member of the Radcliffe Family, she was actually ostracized by the entire clan.
Nobody treated her as a family member.
Before Julius Reedâs shift, these people took pleasure in ridiculing them daily.
After Julius Reed became influential and started making some friends, these people began to sabotage them in secret.
Isnât it a glory for the entire family when the Radcliffe son-in-law becomes strong?
Now it seems that it really isnât the case!
The two of them simply couldnât lead a good life; once they did better than others, they would attract jealousy!
And it was jealousy from their own family!
âQuella Radcliffe, the moment you married that loser, you lost your value to me! How could I possibly hand the family over to a girl!â
Faced with his granddaughterâs questioning, Zade Radcliffe answered coldly.
Quella Radcliffe was already married, and to a loser at that!
If one day his granddaughter had other intentions, or if Julius Reed incited trouble, their Radcliffe Family would definitely face disaster!
The Radcliffe Group was Zade Radcliffeâs lifelong effort; he would never hand it
over to a woman no matter what.
âFrom today on, you and I are through!â
Quella Radcliffe felt utterly disheartened as the tears kept flowing.
âJulius, letâs go. From today onwards, we have nothing to do with the Radcliffe Family.â
Heartbrokenness could be considered Quella Radcliffeâs current truest description.
She took Julius Reedâs hand and started walking towards the door with heavy steps.
âStop! Do you think you can just leave like this?â
Zade Radcliffeâs gaze suddenly turned icy.
âOtis has been beaten up like this by you, and now you think you can just walk away?
He clapped his hands, and immediately a group of security guards surrounded the entrance.
Although he knew these guards might not be a match for Julius Reed, he would never let the two of them leave this place unharmed no matter what.
âLeave? Why should we leave?â
Seeing the security at the door, a smile appeared on Julius Reedâs lips.
âFrom today on, you are the chairman of Radcliffe Group!â
He embraced Quella Radcliffe tightly, his eyes filled with expression.
In such a moment, who could understand the helplessness and agony in Quella Radcliffeâs heart?
âStop dreaming in broad daylight!â
Watching the two embrace, Zade Radcliffe snorted coldly, âNow, Iâm going to oust you from the chairman position!â
Having absolute shareholding, this was a simple task for him.
However, what was strange was that Otis Radcliffe, who hated Julius Reed to the core, didnât say a word at this moment.
He sat in the wheelchair with his head down, silent.
And the other Radcliffes, like frostbitten eggplants, all hung their heads one after another.
âWhat are you doing!â
Zade Radcliffe looked at them quizzically and asked in confusion, âThe stock price of the company is rising, all of you have benefited from it, why the long faces?â
In this round of the commercial battle, not only did Radcliffe Group avoid any losses, but it actually had a substantial amount of capital injected. Titan Group kept pouring in money, making their net worth soar threefold! The greatest beneficiaries were these shareholders from the Radcliffe Clan!
âSpeaking of which, I really should thank you all!â
Zade Radcliffe turned around, looking at Quella Radcliffe with a cheery smile:
âIf it werenât for you, Titan Group wouldnât have desperately thrown in money!
But now, itâs our turn to reap the harvest!â
Although taking the fruits of othersâ labor was not honorable, Zade Radcliffe had always been this type of person.
As long as there was a benefit to be gained, he would stop at nothing!
If it wasnât for this approach, Radcliffe Group wouldnât be where it is today!
âNow, I propose to dismiss Quella Radcliffe as chairman! At the same time, I will assume the position of the new chairman!â
Zade Radcliffe walked with his hands clasped behind his back, step by step towards the seat Quella Radcliffe had just occupied.
âLetâs goâ¦â
In the midst of tears, Quella Radcliffe looked up at Julius Reed and managed a weak smile.
Her clan, her grandfather, they had all betrayed her. Only her husband, whom she once looked down upon, stayed by her side throughout. âWhy leave? Didnât I just say, you will be the sole owner here!â Julius Reed gently wiped away her tears, a loving smile on his face.
âWe donât have shares, we canât fight against themâ¦â
Saying this, Quella Radcliffe glanced at Zade Radcliffe.
These Radcliffe family members had absolute control, and Quella certainly didnât believe they would support her.
Now it seemed, leaving was inevitable.
Quella Radcliffe was not reconciled to this!
She could do better! She could prove it to everyone!
But now, there was no chance left.
âI object!â
Julius Reed raised his hand, smiling as he looked towards Zade Radcliffe.
âYou object?â
Zade Radcliffe was directly amused by the objection.
He looked at Julius Reed, shaking his head and said, âThis is the board meeting, what right do you have to speak? Do you have a single share in the company?
Youâre too green to fight me!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zade Radcliffe had kept an ace up his sleeve ever since he agreed to the bet.
Although he didnât believe Quella Radcliffe could stabilize the stock price.
But all this happening made him even more grateful for his wise decision.
Although he couldnât avoid being censured, what did it matter? Wouldnât he be the one laughing in the end? âI said, I object!â
Julius Reed repeated emphatically.
âJulius⦠â
Quella Radcliffe shook her head, signaling for him not to speak further.
She was very clear about the equity distribution in Radcliffe Group. As long as Zade Radcliffe wanted to do something, no one could stop him.
âYour objection is invalid!â
Zade Radcliffeâs face darkened as he spoke coldly.
âSorry, I am the largest shareholder of the group!â
Julius Reed pulled a document from his jacket and threw it in front of Zade Radcliffe: âThis is the share transfer document, take a good look at the numbers on it!â
âWhat!â
Zade Radcliffe picked up the document with a skeptical attitude and his face was full of disbelief!
âWhere are your shares!â
He looked instinctively at the Radcliffe family members present and at Otis..
