Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife The Twins Are Not Yours novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206: Shareholders Meeting IV

Athena slowly moved her head in the direction of the woman who just nominated her while she was still talking, her brows furrowing as she saw the woman in her late fifties meeting her gaze calmly.

Although Athena couldn’t exactly recall who the woman was, she knew the latter was in the education sector of the country.

"What about you?" The woman repeated, still looking at her. "I think you are the best to handle the company, in Sandro’s absence... since Mr. Ethan isn’t exactly a permanent fixture in this country, as he has other investments outside the country." _{freewёbnoνel.com}

Ethan and Athena exchanged a furtive glance, the real reason lost to the shareholders staring at them, who thought the duo were just appraising themselves.

However, Aiden was aware of the reason for the glance. Last night, after the call with Antonio and then Alvarez, Athena had sent a new email to Ethan about his position in the scheme of things, and now these people were thinking of making him head? It was good that Athena had thought ahead of them.

Athena paused, needing not to stammer, and arranged her thoughts. "I don’t think I fit the profile. As you all know, I have a lot on my plate at the moment. I think someone else should take the bill..."

The shareholders looked at each other, wondering who to pick next.

Alfonso, seeing that things were not going his way, decided to forgo his desire to slap his daughter and move to Plan B. After all, he wasn’t the one who had been expelled from school.

"Since we have reached an impasse about who to select for the seat of the directorship, I suggest that we select with the criteria of the shareholder with the highest number of shares, apart from the owner of the company." He said, meeting the gaze of every shareholder, apart from Athena and Old Mr. Thorne.

Old Mr. Thorne found this rather amusing, but they had expected this gameplay too.

"Considering the amount displayed on the company’s inner files, as of the last time, it is known that my family collectively has the largest amount of shares, and to that end, I suggest I be the director." Alfonso spoke when none of the shareholders said anything to his suggestion.

"Because you are the head of the family?" The same woman who had nominated Athena asked, folding her arms across her chest.

"Precisely that," Alfonso answered with a thin smile.

Zack scoffed and looked away, needing to be out of this meeting already. There was no need for this. He had some arrangements to make to leave this country once and for all, having given up on his quest for revenge.

Since after the court case, he had a rethink about his life’s choices and decided it was not worth playing the game any longer; Athena was already the winner. And since he no longer had his company, there was nothing really tying him down here; no wife, no children—since Athena wouldn’t let him near the twins. He didn’t want to be plagued by the Grey disease either.

"Do you have a problem with the suggestion, Zack? Please speak up..."

Zack, hating to be the center of attention, shook his head to Alfonso’s calm question. There was no need to stir trouble. After all, the only reason why he had a share in this company was because of the truce his father had called with Ewan’s father, a show of peace, or whatever.

So if Alfonso was made director, he didn’t want anything to sabotage his stream of income from this company. He still needed money to thrive!

Alfonso, sensing Zack’s line of thought, smiled and looked at the woman who was backing Athena for the seat of the directorship. "Do you have any other thing to say?"

The woman sighed and shook her head.

"So, how many percent do you have, Alfonso? Just to be aware..." Athena spoke then, drafting Alfonso’s attention to her.

He smiled. "Twenty percent..."

"I take it Fiona has ten percent..." Athena continued.

What now was the witch planning?
