Chapter 1314
After all, if the legitimate heir nearly drove the company to bankruptcy, and Marco, the illegitimate one, brought them profit, what other option did they have? They weren’t part of the Bryant family, so why bother with their internal affairs?
The person who could bring profitability should be the rightful CEO of the Bryant Group!
Seeing the crowd’s focus shift, Marina grew nervous, shooting a desperate look at Jefferson for assistance.
Clearing his throat, Jefferson put on a benevolent smile. “We all remember the significant contributions Mr. Bryant has made to this company, no need for reminding. However, Mr. Bryant, don’t you think your actions have been somewhat overbearing?
The Bryant Group has passed its growth stage. Now, stability and consolidation are critical. Yet you’ve been disregarding veteran employees’ advice and making impulsive decisions without considering the ramifications. Such reckless behavior could easily cause a downfall! At this point, isn’t preservation more important than pursuing unrealistic rapid expansion?”

Loraine’s amusement.
Her gaze landed on Marco, who was still visibly shocked at her arrival.
She tossed him a discreet wink.
Marco didn’t anticipate Loraine’s intervention. Still, he recognized her intentions were benevolent, stirring a feeling of gratitude within him.
Jolted back to reality, Marina dashed towards Loraine, ranting, “This is the Bryant Group’s general shareholders’ meeting. What’s your business here? You’re an outsider!”
Loraine’s glance at Marina was akin to regarding a fool.
“Miss Bryant, it’s shocking that you barely comprehend the nature of the Bryant Group’s business and yet are present here. If that’s the case, why can’t I?”
“You!”
Flustered, Marina couldn’t form a response. Loraine’s laughter rang out before she continued, “As the Universe Group’s president, our enterprises collaborate closely. Given the Bryant Group’s ongoing presidential transition during this shareholders’ meeting, it’s only logical that I, as a business partner, should witness the proceedings.
