The shareholders Elliot Sheridan had fired were starting to panic. The stock price was rising day by day, yet there was still no news about a shareholders' meeting.
When they called to press the matter, they were either met with excuses that the person they were looking for was out or were fobbed off with other non-answers.
Burning with anxiety and left with no other choice, they finally went to find Erin Irving.
Elliot's dismissals had been done in secret, with no public announcement. Besides, Erin Irving had been too busy to pay attention to other people's affairs.
Only when the men arrived at the private room and he heard those old bastards whining about their grievances did he understand what had happened.
In the world of business, once a person lost their usefulness, it didn't matter if they lived or died. This was what it meant to be ruthlessly fickle.
