Marco had anticipated this confrontation, yet he had overestimated the cunning of Marina and Laura.
They desired control of the Bryant Group, yet they opted for the most foolish approach by making their claims public. It was like they were injuring their opponent while inflicting greater self-damage.
If he allowed Marina and Laura to seize the company, it would send the
Bryant Group spiraling towards disaster under their command.
Marina's heartbeat quickened, her fears ignited more by Marco’s enigmatic stare than Liza’s reproofs. His silence was deep and puzzling.
Yet, spurred by Jefferson’s encouraging look, Marina found her voice.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, as you are aware, when my father passed, the rightful heir to the Bryant Group should have been my mother, Laura
Bryant, and subsequently, me. Marco, being born out of wedlock, has no right to our family wealth!”
The room exploded with whispers. Marina tried to shed a few tears, but failed. Instead, she covered her eyes, feigning vulnerability.
“My mother, driven by her compassionate nature, couldn’t bear to see him suffer on the streets as a child, so she adopted him. Considering my young age at that time, she allowed him to assist with the business.
The Bryant family never mistreated him, sending him overseas for education and giving him the best of everything. And how does he repay us? With ungratefulness, by snatching away our Legacy! And now, he dares to belittle my mother and me!”
Among the attendees, the elder shareholders who had seen the Bryant
Group’s past upheavals, knew of Marco’s significant contributions. They wore odd expressions hearing Marina's tale but chose to remain mute.

Marco narrowed his eyes, skeptical of Marina’s ability to craft such a story on her own. The combination of a sob story and references to inheritance rights felt orchestrated, as if someone else was pulling the strings and feeding her scripted lines.
Nevertheless, the drama was effectively captivating. As shareholders started to chatter amongst themselves, Marco cleared his throat, immediately silencing the room.
With a composed demeanor, he replied, “Personal matters Like one’s origins shouldn't be discussed in a corporate setting. However, since you've brought up Laura’s tenure, let's recollect the company’s development .
