Chapter 620 The Calm Before Departure

“Exactly. Well said. The Marketing Department does need a breakthrough. Letting one of our own take over is still more reliable than an outsider.”

“I agree. Teamwork makes the dream work. With you, Mr. Mason, overseeing the bigger picture, and Mr. Pedro taking charge, I’m sure he’ll deliver results.”

One voice after another chimed in.

The executives who normally deferred to Mason without question–who used to praise his every decision as flawless–now seemed as if they had collectively lost their minds. They were openly supporting a proposal that clearly risked the company’s interests. And worse, they saw nothing wrong with Pedro’s completely blank résumé.

Mason’s hand, resting under the table, slowly tightened. The temperature in his eyes also dropped by the second.

Good.

More of them had stepped forward than he had expected, and faster too.

He listened to every so–called “reasonable” opinion without interruption, a faint smile forming on his lips.

It made the assistant beside him quietly break into a cold sweat.

“If everyone thinks it’s feasible,” Mason finally said, his voice unreadable, “then it’s settled.” “In ten days, we’ll hold an emergency shareholders‘ meeting to vote on Pedro’s appointment as Marketing Director. If the majority approves, it will take effect immediately.”

He stood up, sweeping his gaze across the table like a man inspecting livestock headed for slaughter.

“Meeting adjourned.”

Without another word, he walked out.

In the CEO’s office, the assistant hurried after him, unable to hold back anymore. “Mr. Everett, this is dangerous. You’re inviting trouble at the worst possible time. The company is already under heavy pressure. New projects are about to launch, and now you’re calling a shareholder vote for Mr. Pedro’s promotion? This is practically handing a weapon to Wilda’s faction. You should be staying at headquarters to stabilize everything, not giving opportunists a chance to act!”

Mason paused behind his desk. He looked at his loyal assistant calmly, his expression as still as deep water. “No need,” he said calmly. “They are just a bunch of clowns. They can’t stir up any real waves.

His certainty made the assistant swallow his objections.

“Also,” Mason added, opening his laptop and adjusting his schedule, move all my meetings for the nex two weeks to online. I’m going abroad.”

The assistant’s eyes widened in alarm. But meeting Mason’s dark, unreadable gaze, he ultimately

swallowed everything he wanted to say. “Yes, sir. I’ll arrange it immediately.”

Meanwhile, Amelia had no idea that a storm was already gathering inside Everett Group.

All her attention was focused on preparing for her upcoming business trip to Premond.

That evening, Mason returned home. What he saw was Amelia kneeling on the bedroom carpet, carefully folding clothes into a suitcase.

Soft lighting brushed over her profile, giving her an unusually peaceful look. Each piece of clothing was neatly arranged, organized with quiet precision.

Mason didn’t speak at first. He simply leaned against the doorframe and watched her.

After a long day of chaos and calculation, something inside him–restless and cold–strangely settled at the sight of her calm presence.

“You’re packing already?” he finally asked.

Amelia looked up and smiled naturally when she saw him. “Yeah. Flight’s in two days. Figured I’d get ready early.”

Mason walked in slowly, his gaze landing on the half–packed suitcase. “Has Tim confirmed the schedule to go with you?”

“Yeah.” Amelia nodded. “Lily just called me too. She said she’s stable now, and there are nannies and helpers at home. So, it’s totally fine for Tim to come with me for a few days. She even told me not to feel guilty about taking her husband away.”

Mason’s lips pressed together almost imperceptibly. Something flickered in his dark eyes, like he wanted to say something, but held it back.

Amelia noticed. She paused and tilted her head slightly with curiosity. “What is it, Mason? Don’t tell me you want to come with me too?”

Her tone was half–teasing, half–testing him. “With Tim there, you still don’t feel reassured? He’s a professional, you know.”

“I do.”

Mason answered calmly, his voice revealing nothing.
