With Colin being arrested and taken in, this gave Amy an opportunity. She was determined to seize this chance to break into the upper echelons and become a socialite like Sasha.Oscar tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. "Jessie, do you want to play a game first?"Jessamine shook her head. She had no mood to play games now. Her mind was filled with images of rubbing Amy's head on the ground. She wanted to make that woman fall from grace and make her pay a painful price for her actions.Inside the Hiltown Hotel, Amy wore a fancy dress. She had undergone cosmetic procedures, giving her face a radiant glow. She had also hired a professional stylist for her hair. It was said that clothes would make the man. Even after years of wear and tear, her luxurious attire covered up the traces of time, giving her a delicate and refined demeanor. Her demeanor perfectly embodied the image of a wealthy young lady, especially with her restrained manner, portraying the daughter of a wealthy f
She had just stepped onto the stage when applause erupted from the audience. Someone cheered, "Is Ms. Quilton going to talk to us about the company benefits?"Colin was notoriously stingy, always strict with his employees, with company policies tied directly to wages. Being one minute late meant a deduction. Leaving work a minute early meant a deduction. Eating at the desk meant a deduction. Not being at the workstation during working hours meant a deduction. He seemed to want to deduct every last penny from the employees' wages and hand it back to himself.These employees were truly suffering. If it weren't for the difficulty of finding work and the immense pressure of life in recent years due to the economic downturn in various industries, they would have resigned long ago. Finally, with the hope of a new leader taking over, they were eagerly looking forward to changing these unreasonable policies.A new generation reigned, and there was hope of a better promotion. Amy sto
"Jessie, why haven't you come yet? I can't stand it anymore. Please hurry up and get her off the stage," said Shane.Benji was even more anxious than Shane. He shouted, "Ms. Quilton, are you interested in cooperating with me? Let's personally discuss the contract!"As soon as these words were said, all eyes in the hall turned to look at him. Some recognized Benji and whispered, "Isn't that Mr. Moore?""Oh my god, isn't he the wealthy Mr. Moore, whose chain stores are even opened overseas? He even wants to cooperate with Ms. Quilton? Ms. Quilton is indeed so powerful. She's just taken office, and already a big company is actively seeking cooperation.""Ms. Quilton is amazing!""Yes, if Mr. Quilton had stepped down earlier, we would have received bonuses and bought houses in the capital by now."Shane gave Benji a disdainful look and asked impatiently, "Are you just showing off? Why would you want to cooperate with her?"Benji calmly replied, "I'm talking about doing business, not
Jessamine took out the relevant documents and showed them to everyone."Now I am the largest shareholder of this company. You can come forward and take a look."As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned, including Sasha and those who had come to join in the fun. They stopped chatting and focused on what was happening at the scene.Everyone stopped praising Amy and started looking at each other, none daring to speak.At the previous shareholders' meeting, when the two factions of the company were in a fierce dispute, Colin's daughter came forward to take charge. Just when the situation had finally stabilized, a young girl emerged claiming to be the largest shareholder of the company.They didn't believe it, but it was such a significant matter that even though they doubted it in their hearts, no one dared to speak out.At this moment, a major shareholder of the company stepped forward and took a look at the documents in Jessamine's hand. His expression froze
"It's not up to anyone to decide."Amy's face turned pale when she saw those words written in black and white."Did Grandma do this? How many shares did you and Grandma deceive from Dad?" As Amy asked this, both the executives and the lower-level employees fell silent. Didn't she just say she was Colin's only daughter? Why did her words sound like a conversation between sisters?Jessamine snorted. "Sorry, but Grandma only had a dozen shares. I bought the rest over the years. Disappointed?"Everyone was shocked. She bought the remaining shares. How much money did she have to spend, and how much time did it take to collect those shares to finally become the largest shareholder of the company?What a well-calculated plan this was.Jessamine could see the disbelief in Amy's eyes,"You're right. I spent almost all my savings over the years and even spent all the trust fund my mom gave me to buy these shares. I didn't do it for wealth, but for today."Amy's face couldn't be describ
Amy was momentarily dumbfounded. As she looked around, those who were clamoring the loudest for her to repay were the ones who had previously praised her the most. She still remembered their flattering expressions as they toasted her, but in the blink of an eye, they were pushing her to the brink.Such is the fickleness of human relationships.Seeing her losing ground, anyone could easily kick her while she's down."Pay back the money!""Pay back the money!""Pay back the money!"Everyone was shouting at her, each looking fierce and menacing, as if they wanted to devour her.For a moment, Amy felt somewhat at a loss. When she saw Jessamine's radiant face again, she felt disgust and resentment. Who gave her the right to dictate such important matters?"You're slandering! My dad has been law-abiding and upright all his life. He wouldn't do such despicable things. Don't believe her, everyone. This woman deliberately tarnished us Quiltons because she holds a grudge against us!"Up
Tears welled up in Amy's eyes, but soon she made a decision."As for this money issue, it's futile to pressure me. Call the police and stop bothering me. Every wrongdoing has its consequences."She felt a sense of despair now. She used to think she was a wealthy lady, albeit not able to mingle in the elite circles of Zenville. At least her dad was the CEO of a listed company and ensured a life of luxury.But her once proud father turned out to be a person with a tainted reputation, with assets in the negative millions.Her socialite dream seemed to shatter completely at this moment. The sound of it was deafening.Right now, she realized that she couldn't push Jessamine out and then enter the company. Those people in the company simply wouldn't buy her story. They were already showing mercy by not driving her to her death.She thought that calling the police would resolve the matter. But the people in the company didn't listen to anything she said and kept demanding that she repay
Sasha, who had been listening quietly, couldn't bear to see her good friend being bullied by this group of people any longer. She ran to the front to scold them angrily, "You bunch of blind fools, do you even know who Amy is? She's my sister-in-law. "She's not even officially part of us Holts yet, and you're pushing her like this. Aren't you afraid my brother will come back and take revenge on you?"Sasha was usually high-profile, and everyone in their circle knew her. She was the young lady of the Holts. Who dared to offend such an influential figure?She said Amy was her future sister-in-law, which made everyone somewhat believe her.The group stopped attacking Amy and observed the situation.After all, Thaddeus, the "devil of Zenville", was not someone they could afford to offend. If they provoked him, they wouldn't be able to do business anymore.Even if only half of what she said was believable, it still stunned everyone present.Seeing that she had controlled the situatio
