“You trust her?!”
Melanie sneered. She pointed at Silvia and furiously said, “Do you know what could happen if you trust her? Your grandmother might never come back, and Liam would transfer all of Remus Corporation’s assets. Have you thought about the company’s employees? Are you trying to drive it to bankruptcy?!”
Neil remained determined and showed no signs of hesitation.
“If Remus Corporation goes bankrupt, it’ll be due to my inadequacy. It has nothing to do with her.”
Melanie trembled with anger. She sneered and said, “Fine! Since you’re so stubborn, I won’t bother anymore!”
After that, she left in a huff.
Neil then turned to Silvia. “Are you okay?”
Silvia nodded and explained after some contemplating, “Madam Remus’s health has seriously deteriorated. Even if she wakes up, it’ll take a month to recover, or else it’ll lead to long–term health problems.”
“Okay, I trust you. Grandma’s health is more important than anything.”
After a brief silence, Silvia said, “I just found out at work that Liam took over Remus
Corporation. I still have the shares that Madam Remus gave me. If you need my ten percent, can transfer them to you anytime.”
“No need. Since Grandma gave them to you, they’re yours. You can sell them to me if you don’t want them.”
Silvia frowned. Just as she was about to speak, his phone rang.
After he answered the call, his expression turned extremely grim.
“I have some urgent matters at the company, so I need to go back. You should head home.”
Seeing him leave in a rush, Silvia instinctively followed.
“I’ll go with you.”
Neil stopped. Before he could decline, Silvia added, “Don’t forget that I’m one of Remus Corporation’s shareholders. I have a right to join the company’s board meeting.”

He said nothing when he heard her response, and they headed to Remus Corporation together. When they arrived at the entrance, they saw several angry people carrying boxes out of the company.
They were managers from different departments in Remus Corporation. Neil had trained and mentored, so they were all competent. When they heard of Liam’s unreasonable policies, they refused to implement them.
Liam had planned to fire people connected to Neil, and these managers gave him the opportunity to do just that. Hence, he instructed the HR Department to issue termination
letters and asked them to leave Remus Corporation by today.
When the managers saw Neil, their eyes lit up but quickly dimmed. They dared not make eye. contact with him as they felt guilty for going against his orders.
Before Neil left, he had instructed them not to confront Liam directly. However, when they were confronted with Liam’s illogical decisions, they found it hard to restrain themselves.
The Technical Department’s manager stopped before Neil and said apologetically, “Mr. Remus, I’m sorry…”
Although Neil’s expression was cold, he did not blame them. “Don’t leave just yet. Remus Corporation has a policy that dismissals of employees at the manager level or above require approval from the board of directors. Liam’s unilateral decision to dismiss you violates company policy.” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
A spark of hope ignited in their eyes, but they shook their heads.
“It’s useless. The board of directors comprised mostly of Liam’s allies now. Even if you raise an objection, it won’t be enough to keep us in the company.”
Silvia stepped forward and said, “Don’t forget about me. Besides, voting isn’t based on headcount but on the shares held. I’m also a shareholder of Remus Corporation.”
The
manager frowned. “But both of you have less shares than Liam and the other shareholders.”
Silvia smiled. “We still have to give
it a shot. If we do We’ll never succeed.”
Seeing her confident expression, the dejected managers began to feel a bit more hopeful. “Alright. We’ll wait for you here!”
Silvia and Neil entered Remus Corporation together. As they waited for the elevator, Neil glanced at her.
