But the people in Hance City are also quite old, and some have already passed on their shares to their children, as a benefit and thank you from the old Armstrong, so naturally, it will not be taken back.
So when the Armstrong family encountered such a situation, Grace also wanted to give an explanation, at least let everyone know what exactly was going on, so as not to worry indefinitely.
The meeting officially began, with Grace politely greeting everyone, while Camille stood silently by her side.
At present, in the eyes of outsiders, Armstrong Corp and Camille have no relationship, even though Camille is a member of the Armstrong family, but she is already married, so in everyone's eyes, Grace's words carry more weight.
Seeing the appearance of the two sisters, the oldest man with the longest tenure with the old Armstrong looked at Grace and spoke up, "Grace, what exactly happened? How did the Armstrong family change overnight like this?"
The old man had worked as an assistant to the old Simpson, naturally knowing a lot about the Armstrong family, and had watched Grace grow up.
So upon seeing Grace, he naturally was concerned about the affairs of the Armstrong family, having followed the old Armstrong for many years, there was a certain sentimental connection to the Armstrong family and Armstrong Corp, and the occurrence of such a situation was shocking and unbelievable.
At this moment, upon seeing Grace, he finally voiced his doubts, his cloudy eyes full of suspicion.
Grace pursed her lips and said, "Mr. Fong, please don't worry. This is also the main purpose of my visit to Armstrong Corp today. I also want to explain to you and everyone present exactly what is going on with the Armstrong family. Everyone has heard something about it, but I believe the truth is not yet clear to everyone, so today I will provide the answers."
"Regarding the affairs of the Armstrong family, it is indeed as the rumors online say. My father, the former chairman of Armstrong Corp, did indeed do things that violated the relationship between a husband and wife, and did indeed harm my mother. There was indeed an improper relationship between him and Regina."
Grace detailed what Brody had done, then looked at everyone and asked, "Does anyone have any questions?"
Upon hearing Grace's words, the atmosphere in the meeting room immediately quieted down.
Everyone was both surprised and shocked, despite the rumors circulating online, many of the people present had maintained a stance of not prying too much, but now, hearing the family member of the person involved speak of these events, naturally, they were shocked.

After a brief silence, Grace's voice spoke up again, "Don't feel like there's anything you can't ask. Everyone here today is someone I believe should know about the Armstrong family's situation, because I believe that everyone has contributed a lot to Armstrong Corp. Therefore, I believe in being open and honest with everyone, so feel free to ask anything."
After Grace's words, someone immediately spoke up, "Grace, since we are all family here, we also want to ask, will this situation with the Armstrong family affect Armstrong Corp?"
Grace smiled slightly, "Naturally, it won't affect Armstrong Corp, as my father no longer has any shares in Armstrong Corp. This is the second thing I want to tell everyone today."
"Your father no longer has shares in the Armstrong family?"
"Have they all been transferred to Mr. Burris?"
"When did this happen? Why have we heard nothing about it?"
Apart from those loyal to the old Armstrong, there were also those who were loyal to Brody present, and their reactions were naturally somewhat exaggerated.
Grace stood there without speaking, allowing everyone to ask questions incessantly. When the questions gradually subsided, she finally spoke up, "Ultimately, everyone's question boils down to one. When did my father step down from Armstrong Corp?"
"It has been some time, we just haven't mentioned it to anyone. Now is the opportunity to explain everything clearly." Grace finished, then took a transfer agreement from Kian's secretary and handed it to everyone to see. She said, "My father probably stepped down in anticipation of this day."
Everyone carefully read the agreement, and indeed, it bore Brody's signature, leaving no room for further doubt. Although there were still unanswered questions and misunderstandings in their minds.
But because of Brody's signature, even if there was hesitation, it was not appropriate to ask further questions. However, a few loyal to Brody couldn't help but ask, "Grace, do you think we could see your father? With so much happening, we still haven't seen him, and some things, we can only truly be at ease after seeing him!"
While not specifying what exactly was happening, from their words, it was clear that they were questioning Grace's trust and her words.
So they wanted to see Brody in person before they could truly believe.
Grace had already shown great courage in saying this much, so facing their questions, she was still somewhat nervous and uneasy.
Once she started feeling nervous, she fell silent, her expression flashing a hint of panic, furrowing her brows without making a sound.
Camille, who had been silent all along, looked around and then spoke in a calm tone, "If anyone wants to see my father, they can coordinate with the police. Because the case is still under investigation, we can't promise this request for now. We, as family members, also want to see him, as many things are still unclear, and most of the facts need to be learned from the police, so we are also unsure what to do."
Camille's indifference to the affairs of the Armstrong family stayed on the trending searches, although the hype had decreased significantly, it still existed. But because she was Ayan's wife, backed by the Simpson family, naturally, no one dared to question or refute her words.
After her words, the atmosphere once again fell into a brief silence. However, this quiet moment only lasted for a few seconds. The one who initially asked Grace about the Armstrong family affairs, Mr. Fong, then spoke up, "Since this is a family matter of the Armstrong family, let's respect the Armstrong family. As for Armstrong Corp, everything should proceed according to regular business affairs!"
Mr. Fong's words carried weight in Armstrong Corp, so no one dared to question or have any other doubts about his opinion.
This process went smoother than expected, with everyone not dwelling on the question for too long. The meeting came to a temporary end, but Horace's secretary had to give everyone a detailed briefing on the next steps for Armstrong Corp's position arrangements, as everyone had the right to know.
Camille, Grace, and Horace then left the meeting room, with the secretary of Mr. Fong following them out.
