Olivia Jenkins seems deaf to all of this, not even turninq her head.
But her heart already hurts deeply!
In this situation, Olivia understands too well the pain her father had to bear, she really feels sorry for him.
Her heart is also filled with regret and self-blame.
Unconsciously, Olivia’s nose starts to tingle, her eyes welling up with quiet tears.
Still, Olivia’s gaze remains firm and unafraid as she heads determinedly for the boardroom.
Not a shareholder and not a part of the Jenkins family, Geoffrey Gullington could only wait outside the conference room. He caught the strange looks from others.
This left a bad taste in his mouth.
He despised this kind of humiliation from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing Olivia again, Geoffrey suddenly realizes how much more beautiful she’s become. The image of Olivia’s charming figure involuntarily popped into his mind and he couldn’t shake it off.
Unlike her days working at the hospital where Olivia wore only collared shirts and black trousers, devoid of any appeal or interest.
Today, she wore a beige lantern sleeve miniskirt. Her once tied-up hair now draped behind her in long curls. Even with her serious and cold expression, she exuded an attractive self-assured pride. This alone already outshone Hannah Jenkins by miles.
Geoffrey never expected that when Andrew Jenkins forced him to leave Olivia, it was to hand over Jenkins Group to Olivia, elevating her into the position of a female CEO, with power and wealth at her disposal.
If he had hung on earlier, he surely could have stood to make tens or even hundreds of millions.
Given Olivia’s trust in him, he might have even had a chance to enter Jenkins Group and possibly turn it into his own.
The more Geoffrey thought about it, the more regretful he felt. He now feels like he has given up too much for too little. This thought upset him even more.
Dissatisfied with the current situation and not wanting to see Hannah’s face anymore, he decided to find a way to stay by Olivia’s side.
He has to recapture everything that was originally his.
Before the shareholders’ meeting started, Lawyer Hall announced that Hannah Jenkins would become the proxy for Mrs. Jenkins’ share voting rights and exercise the shareholder’s right on behalf of Mrs. Jenkins.
Mrs. Jenkins also recommended Hannah to take a seat on the board of Jenkins Group at the shareholders’ meeting. She proposed to dismiss Olivia’s position as acting president and chairman, strongly recommended Hannah for the position of president of Jenkins Group, and nominated Henry Charles to serve as the chairman of the group.
At these words, the shareholders started whispering to each other, their expressions serious.
Olivia remained silent, looking at her phone.
She just received news that the lawsuit over the inheritance led by her grandmother has been approved for preservation of estate before trial. This means that Jenkins Group can only maintain the status quo and nothing related to her father’s inheritance can be touched.
This is even worse news for Jenkins Group, which is already in financial strain.
Softly twitching her long eyelashes, Olivia thought quietly.
The shareholders present occasionally gave her scornful glances.
Suddenly, Olivia said, “The meeting will start now, everyone quiet down, I have something to say.”
Mrs. Jenkins glared at Olivia and said harshly, “Get out! Nobody wants you here. You are just an adopted child by the Jenkins family. You are not part of the Jenkins family at all. If you have any decency, give back everything that belongs to the Jenkins family.”
Is Olivia only an adopted child of the Jenkins family?!
Mrs. Jenkins’ words shocked all the shareholders present.
The shareholders also started to chime in.
In order to gain inheritance and win over the backstabbers around her, the actions grandmother took made Olivia feel heartbroken, “I didn’t originally want to bring up family matters in this meeting, to save all of us from embarrassment. But it seems we’ve come to this point, it is true that I am an adopted daughter of Andrew Jenkins.”
Henry Charles’ mouth curve into a smile, launching the first attack: “Olivia, you are wrong. Since you are not the biological daughter of Aphra, you should not take everything from the Jenkins family. You should return Jenkins Group. You can’t be too greedy..”
