Chapter 227

With that said, he turned to Erin. "It's been a while now. I think we've been standing here for at least half an hour. It’s probably time for you to give me an update."

Erin's fingers paused on the keyboard. She turned to look at Darius, then smiled and nodded. "Yes, sir. We can see some results now." As she spoke, she turned the laptop to face him. "Mr. Reid, as you can see, we already have 10 percent of Umbrite Hotel's shares. Our business partners provide 8 percent, and the remaining 2 percent is from the share market.

Now, we're the fifth largest shareholder. I’ve already contacted the third and fourth largest, and as long as they hand over their shares totaling 35 percent, we'll own 45 percent of this hotel. That will make us the largest shareholder."

When she got to the end of her report, her gaze went from Darius to the lobby manager, and she smiled.

Darius nodded. "That's about as good as we can get. Continue working on it."

Erin nodded, but she didn't do as he said. Instead of turning back to her laptop, she kept her eyes on the lobby manager.

‘This woman, the lobby manager, is called Samantha Williams. She got the job because her father-our business partner owns 8 percent of the hotel's shares."

The people hiding in the corners poked their heads out again to look at Samantha in surprise.

"I always thought she was arrogant because of her abilities or contributions to the hotel."

"Right? Turns out she knows nothing. She only got the job because her dad's rich!"

‘This is completely different from what she told us!"

Their voices weren't loud, but the silence in the lobby still made their words audible. Darius and the gang were the only guests in the lobby at the moment.

Samantha didn't expect the truth about her identity to be exposed like this. She didn't want to admit it, though. She glared at Darius. "If you don't admit you fabricated that, you'll pay the price for defaming and slandering me!"
