Chapter 425: The Gale Group Cannot Fall into the Hands of Outsiders
“What are you talking about?” Lottie couldn’t believe that Wendy would be so meticulous at such ayoung age!
When Sawyer signed this transfer, he definitely didn’t see the date clearly.
The date was actually Thursday!
“Wendy, what exactly did you mean by saying this? You have to explain it clearly.”
A few old shareholders looked at her in astonishment.
Wendy glanced around at everyone, and then her gaze fell on Carl. She had a serious expression onher face.
“Grandpa told me earlier about his suspicion that Lottie colluded with Joseph to gain absolute controlover the Gale Group.”
“Wendy, you’re slinging mud at me!” Lottie was so angry that she almost picked up the cup on the tableand threw it at her.
How could the girl be so vicious at such a young age!
She even dared to slander people without any sense of guilt!
“I’m not slinging mud at you? Lottie, you know it yourself.”
Wendy, a girl in her twenties, didn’t show any sense of inferiority when facing Lottie.
She indeed had the bearing that the granddaughter of Patriarch Gale should have, which surprisedeveryone.
Lottie was speechless with rage.
Wendy continued, “Now the shares have been transferred to me. I’ve also discussed with Great-Uncle,who agreed to dismiss Joseph from his post as president.”
“You …”
“Lottie, Joseph doesn’t belong to the Gale family after all. You are planning to change his surname aftergetting the Gale Group. You want to take full control of the company!”
“How can that be?”
Upon hearing that Joseph was going to change his surname, everyone disagreed.
The Gale Group always belonged to the Gale family. How could an outsider be in charge?
“Wendy, Joseph and I have never thought about it!”
“Only you know it yourselves, but I can’t put the entire Gale Group at risk!”
Wendy looked at everyone without giving Lottie the chance to speak. She continued to announce,“Next, I’ll serve as president of the Gale Group. As for the position of vice president, I hope that David,the grandson of Great-Uncle, will take over. I wonder if everyone has any objections.”
“Wendy, it’s not up to you to decide for the company!”
Lottie pointed at her and angrily said, “You clearly want to take charge of the Gale Group through suchan arrangement!”
Wendy had already colluded with Carl. No wonder he was speaking up for her all the time today!
Lottie glared at Carl. “She is just an imposter. If she takes charge of the Gale Group, the companywon’t belong to the Gale family sooner or later.”
“If she were an imposter, why would Sawyer give her the shares? Lottie, I don’t want to ask about howyou and your son feel anymore. Now, I agree with Wendy’s decision,” Carl said expressionlessly.
Wendy smiled and said again, “There is another good news that I want to tell everyone.”
All the directors, who are yet to make up their minds, could only look at Wendy and wait for her tocontinue.
Wendy said with a smile, “When I take over the position, I will sign an agreement of main lines fromCity L to Bentson City with the Jackson family. Everyone should have heard about the five-year project.As long as I become the president of the Gale Group, I’ll definitely be able to land this project.”
“The Shinkansen network from City L to Bentson City!”
Someone exclaimed and stood up excitedly, “Really … can you do that?”
They had assessed the project long ago. If they were able to undertake it, the Gale Group woulddefinitely undergo a qualitative leap forward in the next five years.
However, there were several candidates for cooperation with the Jackson family in this project, whohadn’t decided who to work with yet!
“But, Miss Gale, how can you be sure that we can land this project?”
Someone questioned, so everyone’s gaze fell on Wendy.
Even Lottie forgot to retort and just stared at her, “Why should we believe what you said?”
“I’ve got the agreement. As long as I become the president, I can immediately sign with the Jacksonfamily.”
Wendy motioned to her assistant by lifting her chin, who immediately handed the agreement to Carl.
He was so excited that his fingers were trembling. “It’s true. The Jackson family has signed it inadvance!”
“Signed it in advance? How is this possible? Could it be that you … you and the Jackson family …”
“I wonder if everyone knows about my relationship with Young Master Hunter of the Jackson family.”
Speaking of this, Wendy smiled as if she was a young girl passionately in love.
It turned out that their future president had such an intimate relationship with Young Master Hunter!
Didn’t this mean that the Jackson family and the Gale family would be connected by marriage?
If that was the case, there would be no problem with any cooperation.
This would undoubtedly enhance the already impressive strength of the Gale Group!
“Miss Gale, you are the granddaughter of Patriarch Gale. If you can’t be the president of the GaleGroup, how can an outsider?”
Everyone knew how much each of them could earn from the Shinkansen project.
Therefore, several people immediately stood up and expressed support for Wendy.
Who could remain rational when it came to profit?
Many people, who had been neutral from the beginning, began to support Wendy.
However, there were still several shareholders in the Gale Group who unswervingly backed Joseph up.
However, Sawyer had given Wendy too many shares.
Coupled with the support of Carl and several shareholders, Wendy was elected as president by anabsolute advantage in the board meeting.
“Lottie, they will hold a press conference in the afternoon to announce Wendy’s appointment aspresident. Where exactly is Joseph now?”
After the meeting ended, a few old shareholders entered Lottie’s office with worried looks on theirfaces.
Even if Joseph came back now, he might not be able to save the situation.
There was even no chance of him changing what happened now.
After all, Wendy had convinced many shareholders with the Shinkansen project in her hand.
However, at such a crucial moment, it was impossible for Joseph not to come back.
“I’ve checked the president’s previous schedule. He didn’t have plans for a business trip in the past fewdays. Where exactly is he now?”
“By the way, Lottie, I heard that something happened to Patriarch Gale. Is that true? How is he now? Ishe alright?”
Currently, it seemed that there were some problems in the Gale family.
Actually, what they were most worried about was that if something happened to the Gale family, wouldit be detrimental to the Gale Group?
What if the company’s stock was affected …
“Everyone, don’t panic. Joseph just went out on an urgent matter and will be back soon.”
In fact, Lottie was also at a loss as to what to do. She couldn’t reach Joseph at all!
If that was always the case, it wouldn’t be easy to settle the matter.
Also, where did Dad go?
The most terrifying thing was that even Emily had disappeared!
She had lost contact with everyone in the family. It was all because of her years of experience in thebusiness circles that she was able to remain calm until now!
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen. Joseph and Dad will be back soon. They’ll stop Wendy from hercrazy behavior!”
