Chapter 0133
I looked at the person who spoke I had seen him when I was a child. -he was an old veteran under my dad’s command and had been invited to our home countless times for dinner.
After my dad’s death, he often made things difficult for my mom regarding the company, and now, the trouble had turned to me.
I was left speechless, and my expression grew colder. My voice was calm as I said, “Of course, there is. However, there’s no free lunch in
this world.
“1 am willing to step down, but you will need to buy out my shares.”
This was a decision I had carefully considered.
I had thought about relying on Nicholas‘ support to make Jones Corporation even stronger, but I knew that our relationship wasn’t going to last. I understood that I wasn’t cut out for business.
If the day came when I couldn’t keep Jones Corporation afloat on my own, it would be better to leave early to prevent Nicholas from using the company as a bargaining chip in the future.
My mom had devoted the last 90% of her life to Jones Corporation. I had expected her to blame me or ask me to seek Nicholas‘ help with the company when she had her accident, but she hadn’t done any of
that.
She said she loved me. So, I believed that she wouldn’t blame me for making this choice. By exiting through a share transfer, I could maintain Jones Corporation’s legacy while keeping funds in hand.
When I was truly strong financially, I could consider acquiring the company again.

shareholders, but he still firmly defended me
He said. “Gentlemen, though Ms. Jches time as a shareholder has been short, saying she hasn’t caused any losses to the company is
macoropriate
Since she became a shareholder everyone’s dividends this quarter
have increased severalfold. Are you all too old to remember?
As soon as he said this, the people across from me exchanged glances, dearly womed that this golden opportunity might slip away
They quickly changed their tone and said. In that case, since Ms. Jones hasn’t had a significant impact on the company’s operations and has no major faults, we agree to allow her to transfer her shares at the original price.”
Upon hearing this, I suddenly laughed out loud. Il uncrossed my legs. stood up from my chair, and placed my hands on the conference table, adopting an imposing stance as I looked down at everyone.
I said, “I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be brief. I may be inexperienced, but that doesn’t mean I’m clueless.
Think about how I ended up in this CEO position, and reconsider if you really want to make such bold demands
Observing their changed expressions, I smiled. My tone softened

when I added. “There are a few things you might want to consider
Think about the current loan interest rate, our up’s net asset value, and the recent valuation during our financing process.
I straightened up, picked up my handbag, and said, “Today’s meeting was just a heads–up. My shares will be sold at a premium.
“I expect you to think it over carefully. I’ll give you all one week to come up with a satisfactory offer. If you don’t, I won’t mind managing my group myself.”
As I walked out, Alex sighed and said, “Such fearless courage from someone so new. If Ms. Thompson were watching from above, she’d surely be nervous for you too.
Thinking of my mom, I felt a momentary pang of sadness. “If only she had been this unburdened before.” Then she wouldn’t have had to spend so many years anxiously dealing with those shareholders.
My phone buzzed in my bag. It was Nicholas. I could almost picture him frowning in his office, tapping his fingers on
