Chapter 689:

They warned Eileen that if she couldn’t resolve the issue, she would have to resign.

“If I step down, who will take over?” Eileen challenged, patting the chair beside her. “Who has the courage to take the company from me? Or from Bryan?”

“Don’t drag Bryan into this. Just look at his current state,” a shareholder snapped back disdainfully.

Eileen’s expression turned cold in an instant. “No matter his condition, you cannot surpass him! If you think you can take over, think about the strong foundation he built for me!”

“You’re here for a slice of the profit of LB Group, then stick around. If not, feel free to leave now. Nobody’s holding you here against your will.”

Eileen slammed her hand on the table, casting a frosty look at the shareholders.

None of the shareholders dared to lift their gaze.

Eileen’s authoritative tone reminded them strongly of Bryan.

“If this project fails, we’ll all absorb the losses equally. We profit together, so we should also shoulder the losses together. If you’re not on board with that, then pull out your investment. You can directly contact Raymond to do that.”

With that, Eileen turned and walked out of the meeting room.

Outside, Raymond was waiting. He quickly caught up with Eileen.

He had been in the village for an extended period. He had rushed back to EB Group overnight after hearing about the crisis. He had intended to assess the situation before reporting to Eileen.

However, he hadn’t realized the full gravity of the issue until his arrival.

“It’s not your fault,” Eileen interjected. “It’s my fault.

How’s everything with the project in the village?”

“The project is progressing well, and your decision is wise. When the resort opens, it will clearly be profitable.” Raymond then summarized the village’s current status briefly.

He then cautiously inquired, “Do you think this will make the shareholders turn against you?”

Eileen, not looking up, responded, “Quite a few are already displeased. If I show any weakness, things could spiral out of control. It would be much harder to deal with the situation then.”

Currently, the traitor was still seeking chances to undermine EB Group, which faced the risk of either a takeover or a collapse.

“Thank you for your efforts these past days,” Eileen said to Raymond.

Raymond had spent a considerable amount of time in the village. His appearance was now marked by tan and coarse skin, reminiscent of how Bryan had looked when Eileen saw him in the village.

“Your end-of-year bonus will be doubled. You don’t need to go to the village. Just keep an eye on the project from here,” Eileen instructed.

Raymond acknowledged her words. After a brief pause, he added, “Mr. Dawson…”

Raymond occasionally felt the need to reach out to Bryan.
