Chapter 268 - New CEO

How could we accept him as the CEO of the company? He is not a legal heir of the Davis family "

" Just remember 70 % shares belong to the Davis family and its associates. And we have the right to decide about the new CEO. Moreover, all the properties belong to Katherine's husband after her marriage. So, Mr. Adrian Wilson is the legal heir of this company" Joseph announced.

" Hope you got the clarification... " Adrian smirked, still sitting on the chair.

Grayson looked at him angrily and said, " I will not allow this. I will stop you by any means necessary. I will make Mr. Wilson regret that he ever thought of challenging me " he said, looking at Katherine. 

Then he looked at the shareholders and said, " what do you say? " Will you support Mr. Wilson as the new CEO? Will you accept him as the legal heir of this company? Please, speak up" he asked, looking at the shareholders. Some of them nodded their heads in agreement, while some of them were against it. But after a while, there was murmuring in the room. " Yes, we support Mr. Wilson as the CEO of the company," some of them replied. " No, we will not accept him as the CEO," some of them replied. " We are still against it," some of them replied. 

Grayson smiled wickedly and said, "Let's go for voting. Because 40 % of shares belong to the Davis family and 20 % of shares belong to Mr. Martin Miller who is not present here. And also we don't know whether he wants to come back " There was an evil smirk on his lips.

" Okay then. Let's go for a voting method to nominate for the CEO post " Adrian said with a smirk.

" But Ad … we can trust Grayson in this. He will surely threaten the shareholder to vote against you…" she whispered in his ears.

Just in time, the door of the conference room was opened wide. Everyone's head turned as there was a disturbance when the discussion was going on. 

" Sorry...Everyone. I am late for the meeting…" she replied.

" Welcome to the new shareholder of the company" Joseph welcomed her.

" She is Miss. Emily Green, a new shareholder who bought 8% shares in our company, " Joseph informed.

Emily smiled at Adrian and Katherine. Then she took the seat next to Grayson and also opposite to her father. Mr. Green was startled to see his daughter in this company. He was glaring at her but she ignored him as she came to support her friends, Adrain and Katherine.

" The voting will start in fifteen minutes. If you want to discuss for a while, you can take some time, " Joseph announced.

The shareholders started discussing to whom they have to vote. All of sudden, Emily stood up from the chair and declared her support to Adrian. 

The other shareholders were shocked to see a woman who supported Adrian against Grayson. 

Emily explained to everyone in the room how capable Adrian is of the post of CEO. " I witnessed with my eyes how he reached this position with his hard work and his capability. He is the one who thinks about his employee's welfare and their needs even though there was a loss due to the blast in his company " she reasoned why she wants to support him as CEO.

Katherine felt so proud as she stood for the friendship. She smiled at Emily. But Emily turned towards her father and said, " What is your opinion! ". Her voice was cold and stern.

Mr. Green stood up from his chair and glared at Adrian. " I choose Mr. Wilson " he declared bitterly. Grayson was shocked by his statement. He sold his shares to Mr. Green as he also wants to separate Katherine from Adrian.

Grayson looked at Jessica who was standing behind Mr. Green. She looked shocked just like him. 

Meanwhile, few shareholders supported Grayson and few supported Adrian. After considering the shareholder's support and their votes, Joseph declared that the majority of the support is with Mr. Wilson.

" I requested all to applaud our new CEO, Mr. Adrian Wilson…" Joseph announced.

All the shareholders congratulated Adrian one by one but Grayson fisted his hands tightly as if the nails were digging his palms. After greeting Adrian, most of the shareholders left the conference hall. 

" Why do you support him instead of supporting me! " Grayson shouted at Mr. Green.

" It's because of me..." Emily answered with a serious look.

" Why! Do you still love your ex-fiance! Still, you desire him so much that you didn't think of the consequences! " Grayson asked Emily. 

" Grayson… Mind your words. Remember...she is my daughter " Mr. Green warned him.

" You would have to remember in your mind before supporting that man," Grayson said, looking with red eyes. Grayson took strides towards Emily and clenched her jaws with his hands. 

" Answer me...Miss. Green. Is he that good in the bed with you that still, you are supporting him even though he married Katherine! " he asked, fuming in anger.

" If I will make you happy and satisfied in bed. Will you support me! " he whispered in her ears. Emily felt so humiliated by his words and her eyes became wet.

Instantly, Adrian pushed him away on noticing her tears. He pulled her towards him. " Em… Just ignore his words " he consoled her.

" Wow...What a nice chemistry between both of you! " Grayson mocked, looking at them.

Immediately, Mr. Green went to them and held Emily's wrist. " Hope you are happy now, degrading yourself and my reputation for him who broke the engagement," said Mr. Green and dragged Emily out of the conference hall.

Grayson smirked at Adrian and walked towards Katherine. " Don't you feel your husband is overprotective about that Emily! Is she your husband's friend or mistress! " he asked Katherine.

Katherine's heart ached to hear his accusations. She glared at him. " Shut your mouth…" she screamed at him.
