Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 598

Sonia had already planned to hold a shareholders’ meeting and become the chairperson after the factories were built and the machines were sent over from Kosovo prior to this.

In that course, she could justifiably take over the other half of the power in management from Asher which was unlike the current situation—she was the biggest shareholder, and yet she had to be enduring Asher’s competition.

However, the factory had not been completed, and Asher was already holding a shareholders’ meeting to elect a chairperson.

Nevertheless, this situation might be a good thing. Since Asher wanted her to have the position of the chairperson so quickly, she ought to fulfill his wish.

At the door, Asher’s assistant lowered his head in fear after hearing what Sonia said. “President Reed, there’s no use telling me that. It’s better if you talk to him in person.”

“Sure. I’ll speak with him.” After saying that, Sonia stood up.

She knew that it was a futile effort to continue talking to the assistant, so she didn’t want to trouble the assistant either. After grabbing the notebook on her table, she spoke up again, “Lead the way.”

“This way, President Reed.” Seeing that she agreed to join the meeting, the assistant heaved a sigh of relief. Immediately, he made a hand gesture signaling Sonia to go in the correct direction.

Walking over, she passed her notebook to him.

The assistant was quick to take it in his hands for her.

After dusting her jacket that was hanging on her shoulder, she walked outside mightily in her high heels.

In no time, she had arrived at the meeting room’s door.

Then, the assistant went ahead and held the door for her.

As she entered the room, she could see that the shareholders and the higher-ups of Paradigm Co. were all present. It seemed like she was the last to arrive.

When the shareholders and the higher-ups saw her coming in, they halted their conversations before greeting her. “Vice President Reed." No matter what, she held the most shares of Paradigm Co. despite the fact that she was just a vice president.

Hence, they had to be respectful to her.

Giving them a nod in response, Sonia walked to her own seat before sitting down.

Meanwhile, Asher’s assistant who had been following her went forward and returned the notebook to her by placing it on the table in front of her. Immediately after, he left and stood behind Asher.

Glancing past everyone in the meeting room, Asher had his eyes lingering on Sonia for an extra two seconds before looking away.

Nevertheless, Sonia managed to catch that hint of his scheming eyes.

Out of instinct, she straightened her body as she squinted her eyes.

What does his gaze earlier mean?What does he have up his sleeve?

She knew that things couldn’t be so simple since Asher held a shareholders’ meeting at this time of day.

After all, Asher’s shares didn’t even sum up to the second-highest amongst the shareholders—he was at least the third or fourth. Therefore, he could only hold the president position. With his sly methods and the fact that the second and third highest shareholders didn’t have high capabilities, no one would go against Asher.

To sum it up, the shareholders’ meeting today was just odd and fishy.

First and foremost, Asher knew that he wouldn’t become the chairperson, so the meeting wasn't beneficial to himself at all as it would only push Sonia to the chairperson’s position instead.
