Can't Win Me Back

"Julien..." Upon witnessing Julien's entrance, Mandy was moved to tears.

Everyone else in the room was shocked to see Julien at first. Their shocked faces were subsequently replaced by looks of disdain shortly after. Everyone knew that Julien had been outcasted by the Lovelace family long ago. He wasn't allowed to participate in the corporation's operations. To them, he was simply a doctor who only studied CT scans in his doctor's office. They believed Julien knew nothing about the business world.

Not just that, he was previously embroiled in a scandal. The photos of him being intimate with Jonah were exposed to the whole wide world, bringing humiliation to the Lovelace family.

"This is a board meeting, Mr. Julien. It's not like those bars and nightclubs that you frequent. You're being a little too tactless!" The arrogant board member from before mocked Julien. His insult made everyone else chuckle.

"The place you're occupying belongs to the Lovelace family. I am also part of the Lovelace family. I can let it go if you refuse to comply with us, but you're not even showing us basic courtesy. Are you that thick?"

Julien narrowed his eyes, and a frigid look flashed across. "Would you dare to act so rashly if you were standing before Mr. Edgar and Mr. Joseph?" The board member was silenced. He gritted his teeth.

Then, someone else cried out angrily, "Mr. Julien, board meetings are where serious conversations occur. Irrelevant individuals should not be here!" "Oh? So, you are all aware that this is where serious conversations are meant to take place?"

Julien was amused. "When I first walked in, I thought I was walking into a doghouse. I heard some old dogs barking away just to protect their share of the bone.

"If I hadn't shown up, I wouldn't be surprised if those dogs jumped on Aunt Mandy and bit her. Who knows if she might even have to get a rabies vaccine after that." Mandy burst out laughing. She then shook her head slightly.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Julien was capable of reasoning in such a ridiculous manner. He never skimped on using harsh words. He was also a protective person.

Was it a blessing to Jonah, or did he have days of suffering awaiting him in the future?

The barking "dogs" from earlier burned with anger, so much so that their faces turned as red as tomatoes!

Nevertheless, Julien hadn't called them out individually. So, they couldn't admit that they were the ones that he was talking about.

"I know that I'm not welcome here. Well, guess what? I'm not interested in this place either. I guess we do have a mutual understanding here."

Julien chuckled coldly. Then, he slammed the documents in his hand onto the meeting table.

"I'm not familiar with the corporation's matters. But I do know that the one who has the most shares on hand will be the one who has the final say!

"This is my father's shares transfer agreement. It indicated that he would transfer his shares to Aunt Mandy. As for my share, I will also be handing them to Aunt Mandy."

Suddenly, he smiled. The thought of a particular person made his eyes glimmer. He added, "Oh, that's not the only thing.

"Over those few days when Lovelace

Group's share price took a plunge, a mysterious man swept up a massive amount of our shares. He now owns ten percent of Lovelace Group's stock and has become one of the corporation's shareholders. S

"He called me up earlier. He said that if needed, he would be willing to give up all of his shares to Aunt Mandy with zero conditions. Also, he will fully support Aunt Mandy taking over my father's position to become Lovelace Group's chairman.

"Are there any other objections from the room?"

The board members passed the shares transfer agreement around the room. As each of them scrutinized it, their faces turned dark.

They could no longer act up in arrogance. Their devised plans had also gone up in smokes.

After that, each of their attitudes changed. They raised their hands to express their support for Mandy's ascension to the position of chairman.

Julien breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had a calm expression on his face, he was panicking on the inside. Fortunately, though, he had achieved his goal.

Just as he was about to retreat and leave quietly, Mandy called out to him suddenly. "Hold on, Julien."

With a suspicious gaze, he looked around at the determined look on Mandy's face.

"As the corporation's chairman, I have something else to announce to everyone here."

Mandy's gaze was fiery. She

announced confidently, "Due to Aidan's passing, the position of Lovelace Group's president is left vacant From today onward, Julien will fill this position. Are there any objections from the floor?"

This question was iterated a second time. This time, it was coming from Mandy. The level of intimidation that she was exuding was not to be taken lightly.

Was it because of all those years she spent with Winston that his qualities rubbed off on her? Not only was she high and mighty, but she also carried an overbearing air. Even though she was a woman, she was not a woman who could be underestimated or disregarded.

"Aunt... Aunt Mandy..." Julien was frozen with shock. He didn't know what to do.

Even if there were any board members who were unhappy about the announcement, there was nothing they could do about it.

Not only did Julien have a large number of shares, but he also had voting rights. Moreover, he was backed up by a powerful person who had control over the entire situation.
