Chapter (81) Sherry
After seeing Mrs. Rose enter the meeting room and take the chairperson's seat, It was clear that the people in the room were completely confused and were bombarding each other with questions until the situation became chaotic. Seeing the commotion, Mrs. Rose slowly picked up the microphone in front of her, tapped it, and spoke in a way that silenced everyone. , , ~~ Mrs. Rose " Good afternoon, everyone. It's great to see you today. I know you're all surprised to see me here—and you're wondering why it's not my son Jim, right? That's exactly why I'm here, But First of all, I'd like to thank all of you who are here at this meeting. It seems that all the shareholders are present this time, unlike at the last meeting. All right, let's get right to it , In addition to reporting on the company's steadily improving performance, steady growth and progress year after year, all of this is thanks to my son's hard work and dedication as director. and I'd like to bring one important point to your attention. However, due to his deteriorating health in recent times, he has officially resigned from his position, that's the point one , and the point two , as of today, I will be taking over from my son as chairman of the board of directors and assuming full responsibility for the company." (Instantly, the room erupted in commotion; the guests protested at what they had just heard) , , Unlike the others, Mr. Key and Mr. Kanazawa just sat there in silence , As she watched the two men, Mrs. Rose occasionally smiled at them both.
One of the shareholders replied ,, ~~ A Shareholder "Excuse me, Mrs. Rose, as we know, your son's previous position was decided by a vote during the selection process. It is we, the shareholders, who decide who is qualified to be the company's chairman." , , ~~ A Shareholder 2 "Mrs. Rose, what makes you so eager to take that position? I feel I must remind you once again: as stated in the will of the founder , through his legal representative, this company has been established for the shareholders to be good partners." , , ~~ Mrs. Rose"Some of you may have forgotten, but let me remind you once again: my son and I are the heirs of this company's founder which is my late husband , Ralph Xander , and furthermore, As you already know, if both of our shares are counted , And Now I am the sole majority shareholder among you." (The atmosphere grew lively again, as if they still couldn't accept it).
Then Mrs. Rose continued speaking , , ~~ Mrs. Rose"This decision may be a little hard for you to accept, You guys probably already know me , I could easily take back the shares that are currently in your possession." (The room fell silent the moment they heard what Mrs. Rose had just said).
Meanwhile, in the building's lobby, several people dressed in black could be seen walking into the elevator along with a beautiful woman wearing sunglasses. As soon as they arrived at the floor where the meeting was being held, the woman pushed her way inside without saying a word, even though Mrs. Rose's bodyguard tried to stop her; however, all such attempts were immediately brushed aside by one of the mysterious female bodyguards standing beside her. Hearing the commotion from outside, Mrs. Rose immediately looked toward the door, then heard footsteps approaching, followed by a woman's voice saying. , , ~~ A Woman"Well... well... wel... are you sure? It doesn't seem like it's going to be as easy as you say this time." , , ~~ Mrs. Rose "Who are these people? Why are they just being let in like that?Who gave them access to come in here?" , , ~~ Rose's staff "Mam... " (Before he could say a word, the mysterious woman who had just walked in suddenly interrupted).
, , ~~ A Woman "ohh You mean This access card, I got it from the company owner—he gave it to me personally a long time ago." (with smile at Mrs Rose) , , ~~ Mrs. Rose "What? My husband gave that to you? Who the hell are you?" , , ~~ A Woman "ohh rightBefore I answer that, I should introduce myself first, My name is Sherry El Rumi you can call me Sherry. I am the third child of Ralph family before Mrs. Rose and her son become part of us , You won't find my name on the family list, because I'm an adopted daughter who was raised elsewhere. and only my immediate family knew of my existence; , back then, when I heard my dad had passed away, I thought I was just a stranger to them, so I didn't receive anything. But after hearing the news about the tragedy that befell my two older brothers and his families, I finally realized that all of this was my father's way of protecting me." (Sherry spoke, fixing Mrs Rose with a piercing gaze).
, , ~~ A Shareholder "Excuse me for interrupting, Miss Sherry, What brought you here? Why are you showing up now, after all these years? And on whose orders did you come here ?" (out of curiosity) , , ~~ Sherry "Before I answer that, let me tell you something As you know, the founder of this company was my late father. At the time, my father's company was on the verge of collapse, but my older brother Michael managed to save it and then rebuild this business empire, I know some of you are aware of this—including Mr. Kanazawa and Mr. Key—though they've remained silent and done nothing all this time. They did it to protect their family , In conclusion, this company has been legally taken over by my older brother, Michael, and there is one more thing that is even more important: as the attorney appointed directly by the company's founder and acting as the representative of the majority shareholder. And this is my older brother's access card, which he gave me along with some important official documents he handed over to me long before he and his family were reported missing in that tragedy. here, You can check them out! " (while placing those documents on the table to verify their authenticity) , In an instant, the room became noisy again)
, , ~~ Mrs. Rose "Nonsense, what was that rubbish you just said?" (sarcastically) , , ~~ Sherry "I didn't care about this company before, because I knew it was run by someone trustworthy—someone who would never do anything harmful to this business empire. That's why I'm only stepping forward now, because I've learned of your intention to take everything away from your own son. Ooh, right—I also brought a video that my brother made specifically to lend credibility to his decision once he'd made up his mind about that big decision, Check this out!" (handed a USB stick to one of his bodyguards to play on the screen then she take a seat ).
