Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 622
Catherine cast a sharp glance at the person who commented that. Funnily enough, it was a female shareholder named Woofe.
“Director Woofe, your barks really have you living up to your name,” she said sarcastically.
Director Woofe became furious when she understood the double entendre. “Chairwoman Jones, what do you mean? Am I wrong that men love a gentle and beautiful woman?”
“I’ve only been away for three years but everyone thinks they can be impolite to me now, huh? Don’t forget who was the one who instructed you all to be here for this board meeting,” Catherine reminded the room that was full of people.
It was Shaun.
Everyone kept quiet.
“Sarah, I suggest that you leave now or I’ll have Harvey drag you out,” she warned coldly. “Besides, haven’t Shaun told you? Or should I remind you again of my status?”
Sarah’s beautiful face paled instantly.
She knew the two of them had not divorced, thus she would naturally become the third party if Catherine told everyone the truth.
“Sure, I’ll leave.”
She rose to her feet while looking aggrieved.
Catherine was not bothered by the hateful looks thrown at her by the board of directors. “Oh right, as the chairwoman of Hudson Corporation, I’m firing you from your position. You can get out of here after settling everything.”
“You’re going overboard,” Director Irvine said anxiously, “We object to that decision.”
“That’s right. Shareholders have the right to vote for the chairperson,” the rest echoed.
“All of you seem to think that you’ll be pardoned for this with Shaun’s support, huh?” Catherine’s eyes scanned across the room.
They all turned silent.
“Alright, then I’ll give him a phone call.”
