Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 315

Sean tapped a finger on the documents Taylor had compiled.

The reason Daniel allowed Winston to get away with everything was because Winston was his only child. If he were to find out that Winston, whose personality and capabilities were nothing like his own, wasn't even his son… would Daniel still be so tolerant?

…

Helen was already inside the conference room. She used her identity as Robert's niece to make her way around the room, greeting the other members of the board.

The board members had never taken Rowan, a bastard child, seriously. Why would they care about his daughter? Still, now that Helen held 10% of the company's shares, the situation was different.

Daniel had dragged Winston over to a corner to give him a shelling. "Who gave you the nerve to sell 2% of your shares to Helen?"

"C'mon, Dad! Helen's an actual member of the Lawson family, unlike Sean and Angeline. What if she ends up becoming the Lawsons' heiress?" Winston tucked his hands into his pockets, looking like he had everything under control.

"You can continue supporting those two fakers while I support the real deal. No matter who ends up taking the reins, we'll still have played a role in helping them!"

Daniel wanted to say something else, but Winston had already caught sight of Sean and Angeline coming out of the elevator. He said, "I have to go, Dad. I don't have the right to attend this meeting!"

"Come back for dinner tonight!" Daniel frowned.

Angeline and the other board members flipped through the detailed information that had been prepared beforehand. Taylor continued reporting Lawson Global's performance over the past six months. He also talked about the upcoming objectives for the remaining half of the year.

Then, he ran through the branch companies' and subsidiaries' performance.

Though Lawson Global's core products were high-tech drones, satellites, chips, lithography machines, and other electronic products, its subsidiaries were diversified in nature. It had businesses in the medical, pharmaceutical, and even entertainment industries.

Despite Taylor only giving a brief run-through of the subsidiaries' performance, it still took more than two hours to talk about them all.

"Though the medical and pharmaceutical subsidiaries have done pretty well over the past six months, the revenue doesn't seem to be that high compared to other companies in the market. Maybe we should consider having someone else take over these two industries," a board member suggested.
