Charlie’s statement sent all the shareholders uproarious at once.
“She is so evil. Aren’t we going to be implicated by her scheme?”
“She put up all the shares of our company as collateral and gave the money to Matthew. What are we
going to do if they run away with the huge sum of money later on?”
“Exactly. When the time comes for the bank to ask for loan repayment, we will have no choice but to
sell off the company to pay for it. How much will our shares still be worth by the time it happens?”
“I’ve never really expected something like this to happen. The way she does things is so harsh and
aggressive despite her good looks. She’s a femme fatale! She must be!”
Sasha quickly clarified, “Everyone, you have misunderstood me. I offered the investment to Matthew
because I saw potential in his project. As long as Matthew’s project succeeds, our company will get
back onto the right track. On top of that, I only put up my own shares as collateral and all of you here
won’t be implicated!”
Charile sneered, “Sasha Cunningham, stop trying to play dumb with us! Do you think this only concerns
you even though you only put up your shares? In fact, the entire company will be affected! If you can’t
afford to repay the loan, the market value of the company will decrease. By the time it happens, how
much will our shares still be worth? You might be able to save your ass because you have put up your
shares as collateral in advance and get back the loaned money, but it’s not right for you to throw us
under the bus!”
A commotion erupted among the shareholders once again after they heard his statement.
Sasha was so panic-stricken that her face had turned as pale as a sheet. “Everyone, I really don’t have
such an intention! Please believe me when I say that nothing will go wrong with Matthew’s project! If
the investment turns out to be successful, not only will it save the company from its current plight, the
company will also get a lucrative profit out of it! Everything I’ve been doing is for the good of our
company!”
One of the shareholders scoffed, “Sasha Cunningham, stop trying to paint a rosy picture of the
outcome of the investment. All of us aren’t kids and we aren’t buying your story! Don't think that you are
allowed to do whatever you please just because you’re the president. All of us from the board aren’t
going to approve this investment! Also, I think you’re not the right person to manage the company and
we hope you can hand over the official seal!”
The rest of the shareholders too started an outcry demanding for Sasha to hand over her power.
Of course, some of them took Sasha’s side mainly because they trusted Matthew.
An argument then started between the two opposing parties.
Standing in the middle of the crowd, Eric was wearing a sly smile while watching the mayhem.
He had waited a long time for a chance like this, and he was thinking of making use of this incident to
get Sasha ousted from the board so that he could take over the company again.
While James and Helen were looking dejected, Demi snarled angrily, “Sasha, look at the mess you’ve
made! I warned you not to believe Matthew a long time ago, but you refused to listen to me and thoughtProperty © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
we were trying to harm you! How are you going to handle this mess? What will our family have if you’re
ousted from the company while your shares are with the bank? Dad and Mom finally own everything
they have now after working hard for most of their lives, but they are going to lose all of it because of
you! Will you only be satisfied when they fall?!”
Sasha gritted her teeth and felt an urge to say something to refute Demi.
What do you mean, Dad and Mom are going to lose everything because of me? What does everything
that’s happening now have anything to do with them working hard for the most of their lives?
Wiping away the tears from her face, Helen lamented, “I told you Matthew was a jinx but you didn’t
believe me. Alas, Sasha, you’re really too wilful. It’s all our fault for making such a rash decision back
then. We shouldn’t have found such a scumbag to be your husband!”
Sasha, who was annoyed by her mother’s comment, challenged, “Mom, can you please stop criticizing
Matthew? What exactly has he done wrong?”
James knocked over the table as he was infuriated. “I can’t believe you’re still defending him! A-Are
you trying to drive us mad?!” he growled.
