Chapter 207: Shareholders Meeting V

Ewan’s appearance in the boardroom brought every activity to a halt—every winding thought, every muttering, and every form of commotion, including Athena, who had been about to reveal a little of Ethan’s role in the Giacometti company.

Looking better than he had just a few days ago while struggling with death, Ewan was a sight to behold.

Athena, for one, was surprised to see him looking so hale and hearty; it seemed her medicines had exceeded her expectations. She had told Sandro to give him a week more, and yet here he was, defying her logic.

"Good morning everyone..." Ewan greeted calmly, meeting the gazes of everyone in the room.

When his eyes lingered a little longer on Fiona and Alfonso, the duo squirmed in their seats, unsure of what to expect from him now that he was no longer under the influence of drugs. Would he expose their atrocities here?
