After divorce I am a billionaire novel Chapter 1153

Chapter 1153 Has the Little White Rabbit Found Its Home?

Mavis couldn't help but laugh at their reactions. "I knew you all would react this way, but the company is something I built from scratch. My dedication to it far surpasses yours." She was no less determined than Moore.

"But Miss Parker, have you considered your core employees? Their families are in Bostrain. Are you sure they'll follow you to Suham? If they don't go, we'll be facing a massive loss of talent."

"The treatment for those who follow me to Suham will be excellent. I will try my best to bring as many employees with me as possible. And for those who choose not to go, I've already said that the Bostrain company will still exist."

She explained calmly and steadily, knowing full well what their reactions would be.

But her words didn't convince anyone; they shook their heads and sighed.

Shareholder A spoke up first, "Regardless of anything else, I disagree! This idea is too risky."

"I'm also firmly against it," shareholder B added. "Young people shouldn't try to bite off more than they can chew. Otherwise, we'll end up with nothing in the end and waste everyone's time."

"Okay then," shareholder C suggested fairly. "Let's vote by raising our hands and see if there are more supporters or opponents before deciding whether or not we should continue discussing this topic."

Someone in the crowd proposed an opinion that received widespread agreement.

Mavis remained calm and silent throughout it all.

"Those who agree with relocating the company please raise your hand." Not a single person raised their hand - including Mavis herself.

"And those who disagree please raise your hand." The shareholders didn't hesitate for a moment; every one of them raised their hands - unanimously rejecting her proposal.

Mavis showed no reaction whatsoever; instead she watched them continue on with interest.

She hadn't realized when exactly she started handling things like Anthony did - until now.

"Miss Parker," one shareholder began again after seeing her silence linger on too long. "Not even one person agreed! Even though you hold most of the shares yourself, shouldn't you still consider our opinions?"

"That's right Miss Parker," another chimed in agreement while nodding his head vigorously. "We know young people like yourselves dare take risks and challenges head-on but us older folks prefer stability."

Still silent, Mavis exuded an intimidating aura that made them uneasy – unsure what schemes were brewing inside her mind

"I understand that none of you can accept my proposal yet," she finally spoke up after some time had passed since voting ended, "but give yourselves some time to think about it overnight before we reconvene tomorrow morning."

She checked her watch briefly before standing up abruptly, "I have other matters needing attention so if there's nothing else, let's adjourn for today."

Although things hadn't gone smoothly during this meeting, everything had gone according to plan – just as she expected it would from start till finish.

"Lorelai, bring me the financial reports and materials you prepared for the past six months to my office," Mavis instructed.

"Okay, Miss Parker," Lorelai replied as she scrambled to gather the requested documents. Meanwhile, Anthony and Alistair at home were also busy.

"Daddy, when is Mommy coming back?" Alistair asked just moments after they had parted ways.

It wasn't just Alistair who was eagerly awaiting her return; Anthony was watching the seconds tick by as well. "She'll be back this afternoon," Anthony reassured his son.

"But what are we going to eat? I'm hungry!" Alistair exclaimed with a rumbling stomach. Anthony suddenly remembered that their little one had only had milk for breakfast and asked if they should go out or order takeout.

"Daddy, I don't want to eat outside food. Don't you know how to cook?" Alistair batted his big watery eyes at him pleadingly.

He knew how to cook, but this was Bostrain, an unfamiliar place for him, and he didn't even know where to buy groceries.

But his son was hungry, and they needed to find a solution quickly. So he asked, "How about sweet and sour pork?"

Father and son reached a consensus and walked out hand in hand, finding a nearby supermarket to buy groceries.

Before long, as Mavis entered the house, she was greeted by a delicious aroma.
