"I've figured it out." Sophie's gaze turned cold. "I asked you to help with the company because I trusted you, but what is this situation now? I need a reasonable explanation from you."
At that moment, the elevator doors opened, revealing they had stopped on the third floor. Sophie's frown deepened. "Why have you brought me to the third floor?"
"Ms. Sophie, it's not convenient to talk here. Let's go to my office first."
Seeing the look on Tricia's face, Sophie realized the severity of the situation.
Tricia escorted Sophie into the office and, after ensuring they were alone, said, "Ms. Sophie, your office has been claimed by the new CEO."
Sophie couldn't help but laugh in frustration. "I'm the boss here. I make the decisions! Did I approve this new CEO?"
"Ms. Sophie, the person who did this... it was Mr. Burke."
"James?"
"Yes."
"What gives him the right?"
"While you were away on the island shoot, the company was attacked by Burke International. Initially, Reece was just tangled in some scandals and couldn't get out, but then somehow, he got arrested for getting into a fight and has been in custody ever since! Right after that, you got in trouble. Colby and Mr. Adler went to the island, leaving me alone here. Burke International then started their aggressive moves against us, even purchasing shares of S Corporation from various minority shareholders!"
Hearing this, Sophie finally grasped the seriousness of the situation. "How much of S Corporation's shares has Burke International acquired?"
"Twenty percent!"
