Meeting The One For Me

Audrey could not resist Ryan’s persuasion and nodded absentmindedly.

It wasn’t until Ryan helped her tidy up her clothes and Julian knocked on the door that Audrey realized what she had just agreed to.

“Mr. Lambert, Ms. Lambert, the mid–year reporting meeting is about to start. It’s also been reported that Ms. Lyra has arrived.” Julian’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. “She was brought in by Mr. Noah, claiming to attend the board meeting.”

Audrey’s current identity was Audrey Lambert, George’s granddaughter

“There’s another matter.” Julian spread out the folder on the large desk. “Mr. Wilfred has already transferred all his shares to Ms. Lyra, and she has obtained ten percent of the shares by targeting other directors and their children. She’s fully qualified to participate in today’s mid–year reporting meeting.”

Ryan glanced briefly at the documents and handed them to Audrey.

After Audrey finished reading, she asked, “Has Wilfred been taken to the police station?”

“He’s already there. The household staff he bribed to poison Mr. Lambert Senior has provided evidence to the police. The Legal Department has also confirmed that the attempted murder case can be pursued.

“I’ve already sent someone to investigate whom Ms. Lyra has been in contact with among the other directors privately. Still, we couldn’t get it done before this mid–year reporting meeting.”

“No need. Since Lyra is here herself, she must have some plan. We’ll see which directors support her later, then we’ll know who among them have connections with her.” Audrey placed the documents on

the large desk and looked at Ryan.

“With Grandpa and Mom’s shares combined, they hold more than 57 percent. She won’t be able to stir up much trouble.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Taylor’s call came through.

Audrey answered, “Hello?”

“As you expected, Nathan came in person. It seems the two companies weren’t on the list given by the casino, but it was their own negligence that caused this. They hope to resolve it privately.” Taylor’s voice carried a nonchalant tone. “Should I play with him a

“No need. There’s no point wasting time on irrelevant people. Let’s go through the legal procedures directly and have the Legal Department apply for asset preservation.” Audrey’s voice remained calm. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Prepare the contract for cooperation with the Lambert Corporation.”

As long as they applied for asset preservation, freezing and seizing Franklin Group’s liquid assets, they could effectively force Franklin Group into bankruptcy.

“Don’t worry, we’ve already contacted the people from the Lambert Corporation. Evergreen Biotech is currently reviewing the cooperation project proposal you sent.

“I’ll be going to the Lambert Corporation this afternoon to speak with their people. But remember, boss, we agreed that each of us would do our own part. Although you’re our founder, you’re currently working at the Lambert Corporation.

“I have to take responsibility for Evergreen Biotech, and I won’t let Lambert Corporation take advantage of us.”

Had the Lambert Corporation’s people already contacted Evergreen Biotech?

Audrey remembered that Ryan had suppressed Evergreen Biotech’s intention to cooperate, wanting exclusive rights for collaboration with Evergreen Biotech for the next few years.

Audrey had temporarily put it on hold because she intended to use the Alzheimer’s drug formula to deal with the Franklin Group.

Why did the Lambert Corporation suddenly contact Evergreen Biotech again?

Audrey didn’t say much else over the phone. She simply replied, “Don’t worry, let’s follow the normal procedures.”

After ending the call, Julian reminded her, “It’s almost time.”

“Let’s go,” Audrey said with a gentle smile.

At George’s birthday banquet yesterday, he introduced Audrey to the other directors, and they all promised to take good care of her.

It remained to be seen which directors would stand by Audrey and who would side with

Lyra.
