Michael Marshall heard it clearly. It was indeed Olivia Jenkins’ voice.
This malicious woman was despicable!
This malicious woman was overly ambitious!
This cannot be tolerated, she cannot be allowed to monopolize power!
Seeing Michael’s face growing grim with rage, Bella Thompson rejoiced inwardly.
It wasn’t over yet. The outcome was still unclear. Bella was determined to take down Olivia, to kick Daniel out of Marshall Corporation, and nobody could stop her from taking control of the Marshall Family.
Bella softened her eyes a bit, concealing her ambition and further agitating Michael’s emotions.
“If you continue to indulge Olivia, turn a blind eye, letting her and Daniel oust
Matthew, you are letting the wolf into the house, handing over the Marshall
Corporation. With such blindness, you too would become a sinner in the
Marshall family. Daniel is confused, are you going to make the same mistake?”
“Worst case, Matthew and I will leave the Marshall family, we’ll live abroad. How would the world judge you if you all fail at the hands of a lowly woman? Do you think my life is easy? It breaks my heart. I’d rather have my hands stained with blood, but what have you ever done for me?”
Enraged, Michael yelled, “Get out!”
Bella didn’t linger, she hurriedly left. She had achieved what she set out to do.
With the carefully edited recording, as long as Michael heard Olivia’s voice, he would believe it.
As long as Michael believed that this was Olivia’s ambition and that she was unforgivable, he would definitely drive Olivia out, and he would definitely protect Matthew.
Perhaps, she could return to the Marshall family because of this.
As she left the Marshall Corporation, Bella’s eyes were gloomy, and she felt triumphant inside.
If she didn’t have the means, how could she expel Ella Charles? How could she have entered the Marshall household? And become the mistress of the Marshall family? She wasn’t to be trifled with, anyone who obstructed her way had to be removed without regard for the means.
Bella didn’t believe that Olivia would always be lucky, and she didn’t believe that Daniel would protect Olivia forever.
Bella was grateful for Olivia’s words last time, it gave her a chance to turn things around. She would make this lowly woman dig her own grave.
The board meeting of Marshall Corporation.
Daniel demanded an explanation from Matthew about the Jamie Wilson incident and to report on the losses suffered by Light Media.
Upon hearing Matthew’s explanation and report, the directors started whispering among themselves. They couldn’t accept a loss approaching one billion and they didn’t accept Matthew’s explanation.
It was a horrendous investment.
The next moment, someone proposed that Matthew should resign due to his fault.
Michael, who had been silent till now, suddenly spoke up.
“Every investment carries risk. If the Jamie Wilson incident had not occurred, when Light Media made profits and you all were getting your dividends, do you expect you would be laughing? The incident with Jamie Wilson was an accident, Light Media could demand compensation from him and his management company, minimizing the losses.”
Daniel spoke slowly, his voice full of deterrence, “How much can they possibly compensate? Is it enough to cover losses nearing one billion? Who will be responsible for the lost money? The Chairman wishes to allocate funds from the group? Is it fair to the other subsidiaries? Given Jamie Wilson’s scandalous private life, he was a ticking time bomb. Did Young Chief Matthew’s team never assess risks?”
“Did they never get wind of any news from the entertainment circle? Gambling the future of Light Media on a popular star was Young Matthew’s strategy? Are there any leaders who did not resign after such a major blunder? Who would have the face to confront this mess? Is there an immunity just because your surname is Marshall?”
Daniel’s deep eyes were like a black hole, seemingly capable of swallowing anyone who dared to look into them..
