Chandler was shocked. After looking at how nonchalant and indifferent Keegan was, he fell into disbelief and said, ” You’re planning to use this incident for publicity?”
Keegan replied flatly, “Chandler, have you already forgotten the time you ordered Jackson to donate expired bread after the earthquake happened in Langetown not long ago? Our reputation that was built over the decades and the countless donations we’ve made all went down the drain.
“Our PR team is still trying to resolve the negative impact you have caused the company. Now, I finally have a chance to turn things around. Chandler, as a businessman yourself, what do you think a businessman would do?”
Chandler’s expression turned ugly. “Keegan Kane, have you lost your mind after falling into the water? Are you seriously going to use your biological mother for a publicity stunt? Are you crazy?”
Keegan played with the Newton’s cradle on his desk and smiled with his gaze lowered. Then, he calmly said, “My mom has always wanted what’s best for me.
Despite facing all the criticism from others, she insisted on organizing a funeral for me, hoping that I could rest in peace.
“Now, if we could improve the company’s image just by sacrificing her alone, I’m sure that she’d understand my decision.”
Chandler pointed at him and scolded, “Keegan Kane! You’re simply being selfish! This is outrageous!”
Keegan slowly looked up. “Chandler, I’ve already discussed this PR plan with the executives. In the meeting later, everyone is free to express their opinions.
“Let’s see if they’ll agree with my proposal. You always like voting because it’s fair, right? Honestly, I couldn’t agree more.”
Chandler was so angry that his hand trembled.
Usually, whenever the two had different opinions in the company, Chandler would initiate a vote.
After all, Keegan joined the company after Chandler, and he did not have a deep foundation and extensive connections like him.
In the earlier years, Keegan would lose almost every time. It was not until later when Keegan’s team started achieving results that the tide began to turn. After all, the shareholders only cared about money and their personal interests.
So, Keegan was simply saying that to mock Chandler.
Dahlia was just someone who was not directly related to the Kane family.
Compared to the company’s image and potential profit, it was obvious what the shareholders would choose.
Chandler might have many connections in the company, but no shareholders would be foolish enough to prioritize their relationship with him over their personal interests.
Besides, Keegan had already notified the company’s executives about it beforehand, leaving Chandler with no time to come up with a decent excuse.
