Chapter 22 Saving the Leonard Group
Chapter 22 Saving the Leonard Group
Joye's face was filled with shame and anger. She looked at the stunned crowd and said, "The meeting
is over."
She had fulfilled her purpose of coming to the Richard Group.
"Miss. Leonard, I have recorded the audio according to your instructions."
After coming out of the conference room, the secretary couldn't hide her excitement. She thought that
Leonard Group had suffered a devastating blow, but she didn't expect that Joye would receive most of
the shares of the Richard Group out of nowhere. The stock price of Leonard Group would rise the next
day for sure, and no one would dare to divest.
"Good, get the Media Department to share this news properly. The Financial Department will centralize
all the available funds. You can go to several banks that previously cooperated with us and take the
opportunity to sell the shares of Leonard Group."
Compared to her panic-stricken self when she was with Shawn, Joye had completely calmed down at
that moment. There was no turning back. Once the news that she became the first major shareholder
of the Richard Group was out, it was impossible to predict how the public would comment on her and
the Leonard Group.
But this was the only way to save the Leonard Group.
"Okay."
Even if the Leonard Group would survive this crisis, she felt a trace of bitterness in her heart. She
thought that she could cut off all ties with Shawn after a month, but it seemed like they were tied
together. She didn't know how long this entanglement would last.
"Wait for me downstairs. I'm going to the bathroom."
"Okay."
The secretary entered the elevator with a smile. Joye turned to the bathroom, but she froze when she
saw a tall figure in the bathroom entrance. Then she saw Vivian's beautiful face from the reflection in
the mirror.
Vivian also saw her. She turned off the tap and turned around with a smile. Her decent makeup and a
faint smile on her lips made her look like an angel from heaven. She pulled off a lavender suit which not
many could do, giving it her signature charm.
"Miss. Leonard, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."
Joye glanced at the badge on her chest and felt a sting in her eyes.
Shawn had brought Vivian to work in the Richard Group?!
She had embarrassed him in front of the shareholders, but she didn't know that he had already
prepared a way to fight back.
As expected of Shawn!
Joye quickly calmed down and smiled. "Shawn is not here. Miss. Hilary, do you really not know who I
am?"
Vivian deliberately pretended that she didn't know her while in the restaurant. But how was it possible
that she did not know the wife of the married man with whom she was hooking up?
"Miss. Leonard, you are so straightforward. Fine, I admit that I knew who you were from the start, but
none of that matters. Whether you are the Miss Leonard of the Leonard family or Mrs. Richard, as long
as Shawn loves me, that’s enough for me."
"I have been keeping up with Shawn's scandals while abroad. To me, you are the same as those
women. You are just a passer-by in his life, while the one who will accompany him for the rest of his life
is me," said Vivian. Her elegant smile made her shameless words sound reasonable.
Joye's body tensed. Her? A passer-by?
In the past three years, she and Shawn were lawfully wedded. Even if she was a passer-by, she left an
impact on him.
She gritted her teeth. "You're confident, aren't you?"
"Miss. Leonard, you're wrong. A woman's confidence comes from a man's love. It just means that I
have confidence in Shawn's love for me."
Compared to the other women who showed off and insulted others, Vivian wore a smile on her face as
she spoke gently while being confronted. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
However, her gentle demeanour stabbed Joye's heart until she was in so much pain, but she refused to
give up.
Vivian was right. A woman's confidence originated from a man's love. She had been arrogant and said
that half of the entertainment industry belonged to her family, but she never had the confidence to say
she would be the one to spend the rest of her life with Shawn.
Even if she had a good family background, Baird's love, and the protection of the law...
Joye couldn't deny that Shawn didn't love her. He never did.
