q“Kallum, Danrique and Ms. Lindberg are different beings. You can't compare them,” Spencer said calmly. “Now, she's Mrs. Nacht, Mr. Zachary's wife!”
“So what?” Kallum refused to listen to him. “There are plenty of women in history who have killed their husbands to get their husbands' wealth!”
As soon as he said that, the air in the room tensed up.
The shareholders stared at Charlotte and Kallum fearfully.
With her gaze lowered, Charlotte sipped on her tea without bothering to respond.
Johann broke into a cold sweat. I can't believe Kallum is that arrogant to defame Charlotte!
However, he wasn't in the right position to speak up for Charlotte. Thus, he had to remain silent as his heart leaped to his throat.
“Kallum, don't go overboard!” Spencer retorted. “Ms. Lindberg is married to Mr. Zachary. How could you disrespect her? Do you even respect Mr. Zachary?”
“Spencer, you're too old to be aware of how dangerous the corporate world is,” Kallum replied with a frown. “Look at you, trembling in your seat. You should head home and rest. Stop butting into my business.”
“Hey!” Spencer went wordless with rage.
However, Kallum didn't even spare him another glance.
The other board members advised, “Mr. Kallum, let's return to the topic. You can't be rude to Mr. Spencer.”
“I was just concerned about his health,” came Kallum's answer.
“I was just concerned about his health,” came Kallum's answer.
“Kallum Nacht, right?” Charlotte finally spoke. “You're the CEO of Nacht Group's company based in M Nation. As you're three generations apart from my husband, we're considered relatives.”
“You flatter me,” Kallum uttered icily. He assumed that Charlotte wanted to butter up to him.
However, Charlotte's tone did a one-eighty. “But as I'm your superior, I can fire you for spouting nonsense here.”
“How dare you?” Kallum fumed.
“Why not?” Charlotte lifted an eyebrow. “I'm the biggest shareholder in Nacht Group. I can fire you if I like. What can you do about it?”
