“Sister, what should I do then…”
“Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, he can’t do anything to you.”
Natalie stood up, walked toward me in her high heels and placed her hand on my shoulder.
“I forgot to tell you something. I have the final say in the company now.”
“I wanted to use this as a warning to make you follow my wishes and keep acting as the puppet CEO, because after all, you once helped me. But you refused to listen and chose to break up with me.”
“What do you mean?”
I looked up at her coldly, but she just smiled and patted my shoulder.
“What I mean is that I’ve already taken control of the company and bought off the shareholders. I’m the real boss of Dashville now and I can promote anyone I want. Do you understand?”
Aiden stood up in shock. “Sister… no, Natalie, is that true?”
She looked at him with deep affection and nodded. That made him rush over, grab her, pull her into his arms and kiss her. Everyone else didn’t seem surprised, only relieved about their own future.
I was annoyed. I hadn’t realized that Natalie had not only cheated on me but was also trying to take over my company.
"Aren’t you mad?"
“You’re right to be upset. I’ll be honest, Natalie and I have been together for a long time. Got it?”
“While you were away for a year on business, we spent 365 days in your bed, lost in pleasure.”
“You loser, what can you do to me now that you know?”
Everyone burst out laughing, with none showing me any respect.
Just as Natalie had said, she had taken full control of the company while I was gone and replaced everyone with her own people.
On the outside, I looked calm, but inside, my heart was in chaos. I had really underestimated her.
No wonder Aiden acted so arrogant and fearless; it was all because my own wife had given him the power to do so.
Everyone thought I was finished and no longer showed any respect to me. I threw all the resignation letters to the floor, clenched my fists and looked at the two traitors.
“How could you possibly control the company I worked so hard to build?”
“I’m still the legal representative and I haven’t signed any equity transfer papers. So tell me, how do you have the final say in my company?”
Instead of getting angry, Natalie laughed. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear with her slim fingers and leaned against Aiden, exchanging a glance with him.
“I knew you’d ask that, so I prepared a surprise for you.”
“Everyone, come in!”
The conference room door opened once more and a group of people entered. They were shareholders, yet now their eyes were on Natalie, completely ignoring me.
“You… what are you going to do?”
A bad feeling came over me and I knew this wasn’t something simple.
“Why don’t I answer that for you? They’re here to help Natalie win the top spot and kick you out.”
Aiden said that and Natalie leaned in to kiss him. “Baby, you’ve been with me for so long! Your words and attitude are becoming more and more like mine.”
Aiden smirked at me, his eyes full of greed. “Then, when you completely take over the company, let me have the CEO position. I’ve never been a boss before!”
For a loser like him, it was already a miracle to get the director’s seat. Now he was dreaming about replacing me? What nonsense.
Natalie stood up right away, turned to the shareholders in the room and asked them to say loudly whether they supported her or me.
