Chapter 93
Miss Paine slammed her office door shut with a resounding bang, the force of it rattling the picture frames adorning composed demeanor had evaporated, replaced by a simmering rage.
Cee wall. Her normally
“That little…” she muttered, her voice laced with venom as she stalked toward her mahogany desk. Sofia Lockhart, the woman who had just outsmarted her in the boardroom, was the target of her ire. Miss Paine had spent the week carefully laying the groundwork, subtly maneuvering to position herself as the ideal candidate for a chairman role. But Sofia, with her unexpected call for transparency, had snatched the rug right out from under her.
With Eulanda and Lawrence gone, Miss Paine was confident that she was the next qualified chairman not just because of her family’s share but because of her capabilities. Instead, Sofia really had to get the approval of the shareholders who did not waste their time and immediately agreed on Sofia’s proposal.
Clearly, Mr. Lee and Mr. Anderson had been aware of her intentions. She had separately met them since Lawrence’s demise. Who would have thought that the two of them would not even hesitate to support Sofia? “Those bitches…” she hissed as she sat on her chair.
What irked her the most was the fact that Sofia now had the trust of a few shareholders simply because of how magnanimous and trustworthy she sounded. The fact that she was humble enough to accept that she was not yet capable of ruling a conglomerate made her look mature and concerned about her employees!
A low growl escaped Miss Paine’s lips. She wouldn’t deny feeling a grudging admiration for Sofia’s audacity. The woman had played a risky game, publicly advocating for a transparent process while holding the very power to simply claim the chairmanship herself. But Miss Paine wasn’t about to give up so easily. There had to be a way to turn this situation to her advantage.
Her sharp eyes darted around the room, landing on the sleek phone sitting on the corner of her desk. A slow, predatory smile spread across her face. This game was far from over, Miss Lockhart. You may have won the first round, but the battle for LH Group had just begun.

“To think that you would openly decline the position…” William Clarence smiled before he took a sip of his tea. I never saw you as someone that wise.”
“I am going to take that as a compliment,” Sofia responded. Then she slowly placed the box on the rectangular coffee table between them. “Here’s the thing that you want.”
“You didn’t have to bring that here-personally.” William gestured to the man standing behind him to get the box.
“Are you not going to check if this was the same music box that you wanted?” Sofia asked.
“Should I?”
“No. There is no need.” Sofia smiled.
