Chapter 724 The Judgment Day

“Is that so?” Lincoln raised an eyebrow, clasping her delicate wrist and pulling her into his embrace. Inone smooth motion, he flipped her over and pressed her beneath him. Zayla was flustered, but herhands were powerless to break free, firmly held by him. “Lincoln… Lincoln…” “Silence speaks louder.”

” Finally, Zayla gave in and left a comment on her post.

[The jet ski doesn’t come with a handsome guy service, but my boyfriend does.] Soon, the commentsflooded in response to her comment. [Boyfriend? So that’s your boyfriend! He’s so handsome.]

[So handsome! And he knows how to ride a jet ski?] Out of ten comments, nine praised his good looks.Only one was different.

That comment came from Linda. It wasn’t easy, hahaha! Congratulations on making it official! Cheers!]Upon seeing this comment, Zayla burst into laughter.

Tonight, Lincoln was in a great mood. To make her admit her identity, he would start with her Timeline.Zayla looked at him, a faint smile lingering at the corners of her mouth, never fading away. She neverexpected him to be so easily appeased, Late at night, she nestled in his arms, shifting her body to replacethe most comfortable position, and drifted into a deep sleep. Meanwhile, in Harper at Bridgeland Villa.Stephen sat in the room, looking at Zayla’s latest Timeline post. That unified response, although itstung his eyes, also brought forth his sincerest blessings.

A stack of documents lay beside hirn, representing the benefits he had secured for Brendis over theyears in the Vargas Group The paper shredder beside him was clearly turned on, but he hesitated tofeed those documents into the machine.

There was no need anymore. His fist clenched tightly. Tomorrow, it would be his personal judgmentday.

The next morning, as the sun rose, Stephen had not slept a wink. At exactly nine o’clock, he enteredthe company as usual.

The group shareholders had already gathered, and Kylian took the opportunity while Theodore wasaway from Harper to convene this group of people.

When it came to money, they always had a united front. Anyone who dared to touch their interestswould pay the price. Moreover, they had never been fond of Stephen, the “illegitimate child”!

The Vargas Group valued its reputation, and a family like the Vargas family valued their dignity evenmore!

Opposing the appointment of an illegitimate child as the CEO of the group, someone who would be incharge right from the start, had been the constant resistance of these stubborn old shareholders!

However, they couldn’t deny Stephen’s exceptional abilities, nor could they ignore Theodore’s defianceof public opinion in pushing him into this position!

Over the years, Stephen had performed exceptionally well, and the Vargás Group had continued tothrive without any hiccups. Apart from their sarcastic remarks and occasional provocations, theycouldn’t do much.

But now, the situation had changed. They held concrete evidence in their hands!

Evidence that was clear and irrefutable, leaving no room for denial!

With such confidence, they had to seize the opportunity!

Stephen arrived at the company and was promptly “summoned” into the boardroom.

The shareholders came in with great momentum, and the employees sensed that something wasamiss, engaging in hushed discussions behind the scenes.

“What on earth is happening? Didn’t you have a good relationship with the secretary’s office? Did youreplace out anything?”

“I asked, but even they have no idea what’s going on. They came to work early and found that theshareholders had already gathered on the top floor. “While we don’t know the exact details, one thing iscertain: it’s definitely related to Mr. Stephen Vargas.” “Do you think they’re planning to replacesomeone?” “Shh! Don’t jinx it! I’ye only been in this job for half a year, and I’ve barely seen him a fewtimes. He’s so handsome, I want to enjoy the view!”

“That’s not the point. The point is, ever since Stephen took charge, our benefits have improvedcompared to before.”

“Yeah, who doesn’t love money? Who doesn’t love benefits?” At this moment, over 90% of theemployees hoped that Stephen wouldn’t make any mistakes.

However, these shareholders were not to be underestimated! Even if he didn’t lose his life, they wouldsurely strip him of everything he had! Bang! The door of the meeting room closed. Snapped!

A stack of documents landed in front of Stephen “What else do you have to say?” Kylian Swan staredat Stephen, clearly displeased.

Upon seeing these items, Stephen wasn’t surprised, as he had heard whispers of this ever since hisreturn to Harper. He knew that this day would come; it was only a matter of time. “I have nothing tosay.”

Stephen replied calmly. In the face of irrefutable evidence, denial would be futile. Kylian snorted inanger and slammed the table! “You, Stephen! You ungrateful opportunist!” The other shareholderschimed in as well.

“Who would have thought he would do such a thing…” “I’ve been telling the chairman for a long timethat we shouldn’t trust a bastard child, but the chairman wouldn’t listen!”

“I specifically mentioned that the bastard child harbored some resentment towards Chairman Mu. Nowthat he’s in power, who knows what trouble he might stir up. But it seems my warning fell on deaf ears.”

“Yes, look at how things have escalated now… I used to have high hopes for Stephen, but now I seethat I was wrong.”

In the face of the shareholders’ criticism, Stephen had nothing to say and no argument to make. Hehad indeed worked for Brendis, regardless of his underlying motives. What he didn’t understand was…
