The conference room door swung open, and Vanessa strode in, flanked by a squad of bodyguards. She was dressed in a flowing white gown, her hair cascading down to her waist, exuding the poised elegance of someone born into high society.
Sophie hadn't seen Vanessa for a while; the last time was at her engagement party with Colby. Now, Vanessa took her seat across from Colby, surrounded by her entourage.
Johns stepped up next to Vanessa and declared, "Vanessa is the rightful heiress!"
"Vanessa is Mr. Elwood's daughter; she majored in finance and economics and always had stellar grades. She's clearly more qualified than Colby."
"Colby, you're just an outsider. If it weren't for you causing Mr. Elwood's death, how could you have held this position for so long?"
The room buzzed with voices, each dripping with disdain for Colby. Normally, they wouldn't dare speak to him this way, but with the Pollard family's backing, they felt emboldened.
Sophie's brow furrowed as she watched the aggressive posturing. She was about to speak when Colby gently grasped her wrist, his calm demeanor suggesting he was well-prepared.
Sure enough, a group of lawyers entered the room. The shareholders grumbled, "Colby, what's this about?"
Colby commanded, "Bring out the documents."
"Yes, sir."
The lawyers laid several file folders on the table. The lead attorney announced, "Here is Mr. Elwood's will, along with the distribution of all his assets. This includes his signature before his passing, witnessed by these two notaries."
