Raylan's face was dark with rage, "You..."
"Stop!" Mr. Lawson slammed the table and roared, "Shut up all of you!"
The eldest daughter sat down with a blank face, but Raylan was unwilling, "Dad, eldest sister said..."
"You shut up too!" Mr. Lawson interrupted him sharply, and said in a bad mood, "Sit down!"
Raylan glared at everyone in the Harvey family, especially James, and then sat down angrily.
Mr. Lawson looked around, focusing on a few shareholders who were not from the Harvey family. He looked gloomy and said, "You also want James to be the president, right?"
They looked at each other and didn't answer.
"Mr. Sutton thinks so." Mr. Sutton’s secretary was neither humble nor pushy, “Compared to Mr. Ralphie, he believes in Mr. James’s ability more.”
"If Mr. Lawson insists on letting Mr. Ralphie be the president, Mr. Sutton will withdraw its investment in the Harvey Group and resell the shares after the meeting."
In fact, taking the opportunity to take back the shares of Mr. Sutton was also good for the Harvey family, which could effectively strengthen its control over the group.
However, the Harvey family was not of one mind and very selfish. Raising enough funds to buy these shares was somewhat difficult.
Once the shares were acquired by opponents, such as the Pearson Group, it would cause a fatal blow to the Harvey Group.
Mr. Lawson's face clouded, and said solemnly, "Are you sure Mr. Sutton said that?"
"Of course." The secretary said, "His original words."
The eldest daughter put her arms around her chest and sneered, "Even if dad is not afraid of Mr. Sutton's withdrawal, the combined shares of you and Raylan's family are not as much as ours, right?"
"What you said is correct. The presidential change will have a very bad impact on our company. Moreover, the truth of the embezzlement of public funds has become clear, so James should continue to serve as the president. The meeting is over! "
Mr. Lawson finished speaking with a sullen face, gave James a cold look, and strode out.
Ralphie stood up and looked down at James, "Congratulations."
Thank you. "James leaned back in his chair and said, "You don't need to be too discouraged. If I don't want to be president one day, I'll give it to you."
Ralphie smiled, "No, thanks. You are so polite. In fact, grandpa was right. We give the dog a bone to let him catch more prey back, and we get more. "
"I hope you are not raising a wolf." James said.
Ralphie's expression was stiff, and then he smiled, "Wolves are not terrible, which are all beasts just like dogs."
"Do you think it is a beast, a human, or a bastard who has the same ancestry as the beast?" James's slender legs were brought together and said calmly.
Ralphie's eyes were vicious, "Don't be too arrogant."
"Too noisy." James said, "I heard that if the dog is too noisy, just throw it a bone. Do you think it works?"
Ralphie didn't answer and left awkwardly.
James walked to Mr. Sutton's secretary and said, "I owe Mr. Sutton a favor for this matter."
"It's not easy to make Mr. Harvey owe a favor." The secretary smiled and said, "Mr. Sutton had expected you to say this. He asked me to tell you that he did this for the benefit of maximization, not to help you deliberately. You don't need to feel owed."
James smiled, "Then I gained some advantage from Gabriela."
