No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 299

"Mrs. Walsh!"

"President Walsh, there you are!"

Those who had already held a grudge against Lydia, young and old, immediately stood up respectfully upon seeing Sophia in as if she were their mainstay.

That made Leo narrow his eyes in thoughts. It s seemed that Lydia didn't have enough power in the L Group.

The gloom in Sophia's eyes flashed and was taken over by a warm smile. She nodded to everyone, no matter high or low their positions were, looking so courteous.

Other people felt relieved and couldn't help looking at Lydia who was standing there alone.

Sophia would be a great threat to Lydia once she was back, or Lydia wouldn't have transferred her to the Hopkins Metropolis when the group was founded.

Bam...

Irene pounded the table and looked at Sophia inimically. She said in displeasure, "Ms. Black, watch your words! What do you mean by 'how could you forget me'?"

"Irene, it's you? I remembered you are just an intern who just graduated from college when I left, right? Turns out you're the vice president now. What a surprise!"

Sophia glanced at Irene disdainfully and smiled contemptuously. "I suggest you be polite to me. No one in this group gets to speak to me like that except Lydia!"

"You..."

Irene's face twisted in anger. She was about to argue, only to be stopped by Lydia. "Irene!"

Irene turned around, and she still looked angry. "Ms. Henderson, she's disrespecting you..."

"Come back."

Lydia's tone was flat, but the order was too stern to be rejected.

However, Irene was still standing there with an angry face.

Lydia stood up from her presidential spot and looked down at Sophia from the upstage. "No one knows you're back because you never told us. That's why you're not invited to this meeting."

Sophia put up a defiant smile and asked, "So you're saying this is my fault?"

"Isn't it?" Lydia answered calmly with her cold eyes fixed on Sophia.

"Well then."

Sophia smiled indifferently. She stared at Lydia and continued, "Now that I'm here, I think I have the right for a few words in this executive meeting."

"Of course."

No matter how much Lydia hated Sophia, she wouldn't ignore that Sophia was her vice president.

Sophia walked towards the table, and a guy immediately stood up and said, "Please, take my seat."

"Thank you!"

Sophia accepted it and thanked him with a smile.

She talked elegantly and had the demeanor of a mature woman, which made her easier to get along with, given how distant Lydia usually was.

After Sophia sat down gracefully, her eyes fell on Leo. After a short glance, she said, "I'd be the first one to disapprove of appointing this guy."

"Me, either!"

"Ms. Black is right. He wasn't qualified to be our vice president at all!"

"Ms. Henderson, we know he's your husband, but this would be very unfair to us!"

"..."

Leo didn't seem to be angry with their disapproval at all. He was an outsider and got appointed as the vice president suddenly. Given he was Lydia's husband, it was fair for them to think that Lydia made the decision because she wanted to keep the goodies within her family.

Lydia put her hands on the table and asked coldly, "Then give me your reason."

Lydia's words amused Sophia. She laughed, "You need a reason for that? Lydia, I thought you've been the president long enough to know what 'recusation' means?"

Lydia's eyes darkened as she heard the word. Leo looked gloomy because he had read Sophia's hint, too.

"Lydia, you love the good-for-nothing bum, that's your thing, and I don't care about it... but bringing him here and making him the vice president, I don't think that's appropriate."

Sophia crossed her legs and looked at the executives around her. "These people were all the mainstays of the L Group. I think they deserve a promotion after what they've done for this company. Your incompetent husband wouldn't be the last one to be considered. Weren't you afraid that you would let us down when you make that decision?"

Those words were extremely sly and accurate. Sophia was smart enough to know that she still wasn't Lydia's match; therefore, she had to take all the executives with her, inciting them to go against Lydia.

Within a short while, those people already looked furious. They were all blaming Lydia.

"Ms. Henderson, please explain this to us!"
