Chapter 900:
Despite knowing the odds were against him with Bryan backing Eileen, Conroy had been determined to fight for his share. Yet, he was now shocked by Eileenâs audacious moveâshe hadnât just outmaneuvered him; she had stripped him of any opportunity to fight.
As Conroy hurried out of the meeting room, the other executives rose abruptly, the clatter of their chairs filling the air with a dissonant chorus.
Conroyâs pace quickened with fury as he headed to his office, where he discovered his personal items already boxed up by Eileen.
âWhat are you doing, Eileen?â Conroy exclaimed in anger.
Calmly sealing a box, Eileen responded without looking up.
âIâm helping you pack. Oh, and I found this photo of Jessica and Gianna. Forgot to display it, didnât you?â
Her question hung unanswered as Conroy snapped, âItâs none of your business! Why are you putting my things in boxes?â
Eileen wiped her hands and faced him squarely, her voice calm and steady.
âThen where would you prefer I dispose of them? Directly into the trash? Youâve accumulated so much that the office bins wonât suffice.â
Conroy was momentarily rendered speechless. After a while, he said, âDonât play dumb with me!â
He suddenly understood that Eileen had been pretending all along, playing him like a fool. She had known everything from the start!
âWhat? Was yesterdayâs embarrassment at the Vazquez Mansion not enough for you?â Eileen said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. âAre you eager to make a spectacle of yourself again here at the company?â
1@Ŧâ¬$â ¢#4â½Å¦â¬Â®$ 1⦠gÄ ânovels.cøm Conroyâs face morphed into a scowl. âKeep your hands off my belongings, and donât even think about discarding them!â
âThen just tell me, what do you mean? You donât want me to leave? Or do you think you have any room to maneuver?â Eileen checked her watch and added dismissively, âThereâs still an hour and a half until lunch, but Iâm giving you five minutes.â
The onlookers began to murmur among themselves, while the senior executives, who had hastened to the scene, exchanged worried glances, unsure of how to assist Conroy. Clearly, Eileen had no intention of engaging in a rational discussion with Conroy. Her sole objective was to kick him out.
âIâm still leading VQ Groupâs most critical project, and these senior executives have been mentored by me. If I leave, the project will collapse. How many of the executives will stay and listen to Conroy?â She revealed her secret weapon, banking on the fact that Bryan wouldnât want to waste time and effort finding new personnel for management.
Finding a new top-tier management team would come with a hefty price tag, likely exceeding seven figures. If Bryan and Eileen were willing to negotiate with him, a six-figure sum would be all he needed. That would be the best option for both sides.
âI have the skill to make them listen, and if they decide to quit, theyâll be the ones suffering losses. You donât have to worry about that.â Eileen took a seat and gestured toward the lounge.
âSince youâre here, gather your belongings and leave.â
