The CEO's Woman

Chapter 271 Blackmail

Chapter 271 Blackmail

After a few hours of working on her laptop, Jiang Yue decided to go to Wang Empire for the scheduled board meeting, while Fu Jin went to take care of some matters at FC Oils.

Jiang Yue arrived at Wang Empire with three bodyguards accompanying her. Fu Jin insisted on tripling Jiang Yue’s security. Aside from Bei Ye and Wang Bolin, there were other people watching her in the shadows, and additional people following her. Jiang Yue personally found this arrangement a little extravagant, however, she also understood that it was Fu Jin’s way of keeping her secure. She also knew that after their past life’s events, Fu Jin had developed an intense fear of losing her again.

"You wait here," she said to the three men following her when she arrived at the entrance of the board of directors meeting room. Then, she checked the time and shook her head: she was two minutes late.

She opened the door and greeted everyone with a dashing smile.

"You are late." Someone blurted out, making Jiang Yue swallow all the greetings that she had in mind.

"Sorry. Would you rather have me go home now?" she sarcastically asked, walking towards the seat at the head of the table.

The speaker almost choked when he heard Jiang Yue’s words. He couldn’t help, but regret his words. He shouldn’t have been too confident and trusted Mr. Lu’s words a while ago.

"Since you don’t want me to go home, then shall we start?" he heard Jiang Yue ask.

"First and foremost, we have already decided to fire you yesterday. So, you have no right to be here." Mr. Lu immediately said. Although he was shocked to see the news yesterday, he was also relieved that many of the board members had already agreed to replace Jiang Yue, before the face slapping show happened. Somehow, he was confident that Jiang Yue wouldn’t be able to turn the tables.

After all, Mr. Lu had found a valid reason to fire her, aside from the scandal.

"Nah... first and foremost, my family owns more than half of this company. Secondly, I have started this company with my cousin, not even three months ago and we have already doubled all the profits from both Wu Conglomerate and Wang Group. Even our running profit today is enough to buy all of your stocks at hand. So I don’t really need you to tell me what rights I have Mr. Lu because trust me, I know..." she answered, her gaze steady and confident. She might have been young, but Jiang Yue was a very shrewd woman when it came to business.

Since its founding, Wang Empire gained the attention of the whole tech industry for its’ steadily increasing profits and innovative products. Products like the Devouring Virus and some other software created by Alex and Bai’Li.

Mr. Lu frowned at Jiang Yue’s answer. He did not expect her to be this eloquent. However, he immediately composed himself when he thought about the person backing him. "Ehem... you are not suitable to be our CEO, your actions could damage our brand."

"Like what?" she raised an eyebrow.

"Like killing your stepmother." Mr. Lu answered confidently. He even had photos of the police officers going out of Jiang Yue’s house. Although he couldn’t prove that Jiang Yue indeed had killed Lu Shi, he could still use that to point out the fact that Jiang Yue was attracting too much trouble. However, before he could say anything, Jiang Yue burst into a puddle of laughter.

"Ah... Mr. Lu, you do know that this meeting is being recorded, right?" she asked while trying to hold her laughter. "You just slandered me now, you will have to deal with my lawyer."

"What slander?" Mr.Lu got up from his seat and pointed his fingers at Jiang Yue. "I have some photos that show the police going out of your house. We can’t have a CEO like this. You are attracting too much trouble. This will damage our company!"

"I agree. I am indeed attracting lots of troubles," she dramatically stroke her chin as if she was thinking deeply about the current matter. "However, these issues are making us famous. Don’t you think so, Mr. Lu?"

"Famous in a bad way!"

"Nah... now everyone knows that Wang Empire has an extremely smart CEO!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Oh... you did not know?" she faked a shocked look on her face. "I have just released a piece of good news: we are going to start doing some programs for an Artificial Intelligence software that I am planning to create. I am already receiving many phone calls from different countries. Too bad I can’t answer them as I am here talking happily to you. I mean... we can handle those losses, right? It’s just close to billion dollars project"

"What did you say?" he bellowed.

"You heard me."

"I dare you to repeat it."

"No, Mr. Lu, I dare you to raise your voice again!" she said sternly, her playful tone was gone and was replaced by her freezing gaze. "I was just away for a few days, and you have been already running rampant! Let me remind you that as the CEO I can remove anyone, who has been showing an extreme unethical behavior!"

"Are you threatening me?" he narrowed his eyes at her. Aside from Fu Jin, he was the third biggest shareholder in Wang Empire. Besides, Li Qiang had already promised him a huge amount of money if he succeeded in ousting Jiang Yue.

"I don’t threaten." she narrowed her eyes at him. "I make promises. Just like how I promise to share every indecent photo that you have with your mistress, who is also your wife’s sister, online if you don’t sell half of your shares to Fu Jin now."

The room instantly became extremely silent because of Jiang Yue’s words.

"This is blackmail!" Mr. Lu fumed.

"Is it?" Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow before she looked at the other old men sitting at the table. "Did anyone else heard me blackmailing you?"

The moment Jiang Yue’s gaze landed on them, each and everyone in the room, except for Mr. Lu, shook their heads as if their life depended on it.

Just how scary was this Jiang Yue?

Seeing this, Jiang Yue gave Mr. Lu a provoking smirk. "You see? I am innocent."
