No Sex for Six Years Because of Her? I'm Done novel Chapter 678

Still, not everyone in the room followed along.

One person spoke up, hesitant. “But… ever since Mason took over, the company has expanded several times. Business has been thriving…

“He’s capable. He’s just a little emotional right now. Maybe what we said earlier upset him…”

He was trying to defend Mason, but there was no real confidence in his voice.

“Maybe we should talk to him again privately? Everett Group got to where it is because of his leadership and strategy. As long as he’s willing to step in, I’m sure this mess can be cleaned up fast…”

What a devoted lapdog for Mason.

A trace of impatience flashed through Pedro’s eyes, but his expression remained calm and concerned.

“He does have a point. Everyone here recognizes Mason’s ability.”

Pedro pretended to acknowledge Mason’s ability first, then shifted the tone smoothly.

“But we should also be realistic. The company’s growth didn’t start with him. The foundation was already laid by those who came before.”

He cast a meaningful look toward the senior directors, especially the veterans who had built the company alongside the old chairman. “Mason simply stepped in at the right time and took credit while everything was already on track.”

That statement landed exactly where it needed to.

Those veterans had spent years building the company from the ground up, yet Mason was the one enjoying the recognition. Naturally, they felt uneasy about it.

Pedro did not give them time to think further.

“Think about it. When Evan was in charge, hadn’t he already mapped out the company’s long-term direction and laid a solid foundation?

“And although I don’t want to say this, the truth remains… Mason has yet to clear himself of suspicion in the attempted murder of Evan.

“If the police do come back with proof that he really did it, are we seriously supposed to sit back and watch Everett Group turn into a joke with a CEO behind bars?”

Attempted murder of his own brother. Those words weighed heavily on everyone present. Until now, their anger had been focused on management issues and personal behavior. They could be angry about Mason being distracted by love, but that still came down to money. Financial losses could be recovered. But once it involved a breach of the law, everything changed.

9:47 am P PPP.

Chapter 678 They Have Turned Against You

This would no longer be a personal issue. It would become a major scandal for the entire Everett Group, damaging its reputation and destroying the trust it had built over the years.

Even those who had just spoken in Mason’s defense fell silent.

No one wanted to be linked to a potential criminal.

A strange silence settled over the room.

Pedro looked around at their reactions, satisfied.

He knew he had made the right move.

The conference room doors slowly swung shut.

As the gap narrowed, it felt like the outcome of the power transfer had already been decided.

For a brief moment, Pedro’s profile was visible through the closing door, blurred in shadow but still carrying the quiet confidence of someone who had already won.

And Mason was not unaware of any of this.

He had just left the building when his phone rang.

It was his assistant.

Mason answered the call.

“Mr. Mason, the moment you left, everything inside the conference room changed.”

“Pedro went in, and now all the directors have turned against you. They’ve already agreed to remove you and put Pedro in your position!”

Mason listened to the hurried report without any change in expression.

“Oh? That was fast.” He gave a faint laugh. “If they want someone else to take the seat, then let them.”

“But Mr. Mason! All those years of your work…” The assistant tried to continue, but Mason cut him off calmly.

“Don’t worry about it. Let them do whatever they want.”
