Some shareholders were upset, but they didnât dare to confront Olivia Jenkins further, for fear of bringing trouble upon themselves.
Though she was young, this firecracker was not one to be trifled with.
Olivia Jenkins cast a particular glance at the empty chair. Hannah Jenkins hadnât shown up; good for her.
âEveryone is here, letâs start the meeting. It was you who called this extraordinary general meeting, so feel free to discuss whatever you want; Iâm all ears.â
The shareholders had come prepared and Richard Hall, as the spokesperson, was the first to state his position, âOn behalf of Chief Jenkins, you should update us on the progress of the audit investigation and the financing negotiations. Up to this point, we are really in the dark about the groupâs situation, you should be open and transparent.â
Olivia Jenkins was never one to be easily intimidated. Despite knowing that the shareholders were ganging up against her, she remained calm and composed.
âTo my knowledge, most of you present, though shareholders, you donât possess the right to make business decisions, nor do you have the right to invest financially. So, with what face do you question me?â
Richard Hall glared at Olivia Jenkins with a stern face, âYoung lady, you are too arrogant!â
Olivia Jenkins looked at Richard Hall, a hint of mockery on her face, âIf I remember correctly, your shareholding agreement does not include the power to make business decisions or financial investment rights. Would you like me to pull out the original contract and refresh your memory? Just because youâre older doesnât mean you can bully me. Thatâs immoral!â
Instantly, Richard Hallâs face became long, and his anger was clearly visible.
Oliviaâs retort hit a nerve, and although he was furious, he couldnât find the footing to retort back.
This young lady was smart and no one dared to try and control Jenkins Group.
The powerless shareholders, who had initially planned to unanimously criticize Olivia, closed their mouths, seeing the situation.
Only two shareholders had the right to make decisions, and they exchanged glances.
After a momentâs hesitation, Mr. Lee suggested, âOn behalf of Chief Jenkins, can you tell us the situation with the financing? We canât know nothing about it. At least give us an idea; we all hope Jenkins Group can return to normal operations.â
Olivia Jenkinsâ eyes were as sparkling as the crystals in the water, sharply scanning the shareholders in the room, âIâm sure youâve heard the news. Zenith Capital has shown interest in investing and so has Light Media.â
Mr. Lee: âIn that case, are you considering collaborating with one of them, Miss Jenkins?â
Olivia Jenkins countered, âWhat are your thoughts? Youâve heard about their negotiation terms, right?â
All the shareholders present were silent, giving each other uncertain looks.
Olivia Jenkins got straight to the point, âAre you drawn by the conditions of
Light Media? Wishing for Jenkins Group to accept a 2 billion investment from Light Media?â
Still, no one on the shareholderâs side offered any opinion.
Olivia Jenkins continued, âDo you think thereâs free lunch in this world? Who would offer 2 billion without asking for any return or any collateral? Would you do that yourself? What if this huge amount of money canât be recovered? Do you really think Matthew Marshall is as philanthropic as he seems?â
Out of the blue, Olivia Jenkins looked stern, slapped the table a few times with a loud name, âEnough said, let me remind you to be careful if youâre the mole within the group. If I see any shifty movements, donât blame me for being rude!â
After several eye contacts, Richard Hall spoke up, âMiss Jenkins, these are just your own personal views. Under these circumstances, we should put it to a vote.â
âRichard Hall, are you implying that you donât respect Zenith Capital, that you look down on Benjamin Johnson, huh?â
With her aggressive questioning, Olivia Jenkins soon held the attention of all
shareholders..
