**The Billionaire’s Last Obsession series 594**
**Chapter 594: Removing Henry**
Morgan stepped into the conference room, his expression darkened by an internal tempest. A heavy sigh escaped him, resonating with the frustration and disappointment that had been weighing him down for weeks. Each stride he took felt like a burden, as if the very air around him was thick with the gravity of his thoughts.
As he pushed open the door, the atmosphere within shifted palpably. A small group of directors sat around the gleaming conference table, their faces a blend of anxiety and respect. The moment they caught sight of Morgan, they sprang to their feet, a chorus of greetings attempting to fill the air, though the words felt woefully inadequate against the backdrop of their collective concern. “You’re here too, sir,” one director ventured, but the attempt at levity fell flat, barely skimming the surface of the tension that hung heavily in the room.
Morgan’s gaze swept over the assembled faces, and a flicker of sorrow danced in his eyes. “I’ve let you all down. I’ve failed you,” he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper, thick with regret.
An elder director, distinguished by his silver hair and calm demeanor, stepped forward. “Please, don’t say that. We’ve witnessed the Sinclair Group grow from its humble beginnings to what it is today. Each of us has invested not just our time but our hearts into this company. Right now, we face our greatest challenge, but it is essential that we remain united. Together, we will push through this crisis.”
Another director nodded vigorously, his expression earnest. “Absolutely. I have faith that Sinclair Group will rise again, stronger than before.”
One after another, the directors expressed their support, their voices merging into a chorus of reassurance, a fragile yet comforting sound amidst the storm brewing in Morgan’s heart.
Suddenly, the sound of purposeful footsteps sliced through the moment as Karina strode in, flanked by her team. Her calm smile contrasted sharply with the tension that crackled in the air. “Everyone’s here, good,” she declared, her tone imbued with confidence and authority. Without a moment’s hesitation, she made her way to the head of the table, claiming her seat with an air of command that left little room for dissent.
A director frowned, his brow furrowing in confusion. “Miss, you’ve taken the wrong seat. That’s our chairman’s place,” he pointed out, disbelief coloring his voice.
Karina met his gaze, unwavering. “Not anymore,” she replied coolly, her tone leaving no room for argument. “If you all have finished your greetings, then let’s get down to business.”
A wave of unease rippled through the room as the directors exchanged uncertain glances. Reluctantly, they settled into their seats, the atmosphere thickening with palpable tension. Morgan and Henry took their places at the lower end of the table, their expressions mirroring the uncertainty that hung heavily in the air.
Karina turned to her staff, her voice firm and commanding. “Distribute the files.”
With a sense of urgency, her team began handing out documents to each director, the rustling of paper filling the silence like the whisper of an impending storm.
Karina wasted no time on pleasantries. “Allow me to introduce myself. I am Karina, the general manager of Skyreach Group. As you will see in the documents before you, Skyreach Group now holds forty percent of Sinclair Group’s shares, making us the largest shareholder.”
Her eyes hardened as she continued, the atmosphere growing heavier with each word. “Given Henry’s disastrous decisions that have brought this company to the brink of bankruptcy, our group proposes his immediate removal as general manager.”
Her declaration sent shockwaves through the room, causing the directors to shift uncomfortably in their seats, the air thick with disbelief.
