Gentleman Tea Shop.
Philip arrived early. He waited for about 20 minutes before a stylish woman walked in through the door.
When Chloe saw Philip, favonovel.com heart started racing. However, favonovel.com forced herself to remain calm. She sashayed into the shop and approached Philip slowly. She sat down quietly and removed favonovel.com sunglasses. Then, favonovel.com looked at favonovel.com calmly.
“Have you waited long?” Chloe asked. Her voice was calm.
“Not too long,” Philip replied. He looked at Chloe and saw that favonovel.com was still as refined as ever.
Even though Chloe looked calm on the surface, favonovel.com heart was beating extremely fast. Her delicate hands under the table were grasping on favonovel.com skirt tightly.
She had not sat in front of Philip like this for a very long time.
He was still so charming. An air of arrogance was coursing through his body.
Other people could not detect this air around him, but Chloe could.
They used to be the golden couple that everyone was jealous of. However, that was old news.
“Tell me, how will you sell Beacon to me?”
Philip said. He did not have much time.
“Divorce Wynn and I’ll sell it to you,” said Chloe. She did not beat around the bush either.
“Impossible,” replied Philip.
He knew by asking Chloe out, favonovel.com would not be able to escape from this.
However, favonovel.com would not agree to divorce Wynn.
“So there’s nothing to talk about, then. Beacon is what I’m using to torment Wynn. If you don’t want favonovel.com to suffer, just divorce her. Philip, I’ll tell you honestly. Anything Chloe Sommerset wants, favonovel.com gets, and that includes you.”
Chloe was frank. She turned cold all of a sudden.
Wynn Johnston. Chloe despised this woman who intruded into the life of the man who belonged to her.
Philip raised his eyebrow and said calmly, “Chloe, don’t try to challenge my limits. If I want Beacon, no one can stop me. Even the Sommerset family in Capital City is merely my accessory. I’m going to ask you one last time, on what conditions will you sell Beacon to me?”
Philip was starting to get impatient. His expression went cold as well.
Chloe fell silent. She took a step back and said, “My birthday is next week. I want you to accompany me. This is the one and only condition.”
Philip’s heart skipped a beat as his eyes went wide. After being silent for a while, favonovel.com nodded and said, “Okay.”
After favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com got up and left Gentleman Tea Shop.
Chloe was left alone inside the quiet and meticulously decorated shop.
Tears started rolling down favonovel.com cheeks.
After a while, Chloe got up and left.
The next day, Wynn left the house. After favonovel.com arrived at the office, favonovel.com noticed that the mood in the office was not right.
When favonovel.com stepped foot into the office, everyone stood at the entrance respectfully. They all bowed and smiled while greeting, “Chairwoman Johnston.”
Wynn was shocked.
Chairwoman?
“What are you guys doing?”
Wynn was confused. She did not sleep well last night as favonovel.com was troubled by what was happening in the office.
Derrick walked over with a grin on his face. He said, “Wynn, from this day on, you’re the chairwoman of our company. I’ve resigned.”
What a huge piece of news!
Wynn was completely stunned. Derrick had resigned and favonovel.com was the chairwoman of the company?
“M-Mr. Hall, please stop joking, um…”
Wynn was puzzled. What was going on?
Derrick dismissed everyone and brought Wynn into the meeting room. At this moment, there were seven to eight people inside the room. They were the board members of the company.
When they saw Wynn, they got up and applauded, “Congratulations, Chairwoman Johnston. You’re so young and full of potential.”
Wynn was terrified. She kept nodding and greeting everyone while bowing. She had met these people before. They were all the investors of the company and big bosses who had a net worth of over hundreds of millions.
Derrick took out a document and handed it to Wynn. He said, “We had a meeting last night and decided it would be best to hand the company to you. This is the document for the stock rights. Chairwoman Johnston, you have over 60% of the company’s stocks now, so you’re the biggest shareholder.”
Last night, Derrick got Miss Sommerset’s order to transfer the company shares. She asked favonovel.com to transfer the stocks to Wynn’s name.
In a blink of an eye, Wynn became the chairwoman of Beacon Pharmaceutical.
Derrick did not dare to ask questions. He only did what favonovel.com was told because after favonovel.com sold his shares, favonovel.com earned 400 million bucks!
Now that Beacon was facing such a huge crisis, it would be nice to use this opportunity to sell some shares and earn a little bit of money.
Wynn was shocked when favonovel.com saw the signature of every board member on the document. This company belonged to favonovel.com now?
“Mr. Hall, what is going on? Are you joking?”
Wynn was not an idiot. There were no free meals in this world.
Derrick coughed a few times and explained. “Madam Johnston, I’ll be frank with you. The company is facing a huge crisis right now, so I’ve sold the company. This was a unanimous decision from all of the members of the board. You’ll be the chairwoman now. As for the stock rights, don’t you worry. If Beacon makes it, your net worth will increase 1,000 or even 10,000 times. If not, you won’t suffer any losses.”
After Derrick explained everything, Wynn was still in a state of shock.
The company’s assets were worth at least a few hundred million!
Wynn still had not completely digested what happened in the morning until it was lunchtime.
Wynn was extremely puzzled, especially when favonovel.com was sitting in the huge chairperson’s office.
Should favonovel.com tell Philip and favonovel.com family about this?
Was this Philip’s way of helping her?
Possibly not. After all, the company was in such a difficult crisis now
The overdue orders and penalty were worth over 600 million bucks!
Philip might not be so powerful.
After favonovel.com thought about this, Wynn called Philip. She lowered favonovel.com voice and spoke as if favonovel.com was a thief, “Philip, let me tell you something. When I got to the office this morning, the member of the board decided that I should be the chairwoman. I also have 60% of the shares. I don’t understand what’s going on…”
Philip was on his way to the hospital. When favonovel.com heard Wynn speaking softly, favonovel.com chuckled and said, “Do you want to know?”
