Chapter 83
“We were able to stop any reports as of now, but Mr. Beaumont said anything could happen in the next 24 hours,” Miss Amores said as she handed Sofia her report. Sofia already expected that the media would soon find out what happened. However, she was still thankful for Alexander’s help.
She nodded in response before walking towards the boardroom where the shareholders were going to have their meeting to decide the future of the company now that Eulanda was no longer capable of being the chairman.
“Sofia…”
Sofia stopped walking when she heard a woman’s voice behind her. “Miss Paine…” Sofia said.
“How is she?” Miss Paine did not beat around the bush. Right now, all major shareholders are aware of the accident.
“The doctors are currently observing her…” Sofia said. “We are hopeful.” However, she was made aware just this morning when she woke up that even if Eulanda woke up, it would be impossible for her to become the woman she once was.
This was because of her age. She’s already in her seventies, and she was lucky to have even survived the accident!
“I hope that everything will go well…” Miss Paine said; her face was devoid of any makeup. It was also obvious that she decided to dress in a simple manner, opposite to what she used to dress in the past. “Your grandmother and I… are friends.”
“I know,” Sofia nodded. “Shall we go inside?”
“Of course.”
The two women then walked inside the boardroom, and just as expected, the others were already there, waiting for them.
“Sofia…” Lawrence said concern etched across his face. “How are you holding up?” he asked as he approached her.
“I am fine… thank you,” Sofia found her seat. She could feel everyone’s gaze on her but chose to ignore the pressure that came along with it. “Is everyone here?”
“Yes…” Mr. Lee said. Just like Miss Paine, the others seemed to have somber expressions on their faces.
“Then let me start the meeting…” Lawrence got up. “Yesterday… our Chairman Eulanda Lockhart was involved in an accident. She’s currently in the hospital. I am certain that most of you are aware of her current state?”
As always, Lawrence looked and sounded professional. He was calm and collected, not an iota of excitement could be seen in his eyes. This man was good-too good!
