Chapter 413 Kelly Assumes Control of Lockhart Group

At Lockhart Group, Quentin was seated in the midst of a meeting, the atmosphere flick with tension.

The executives around the table were stiff and silent, each one anxious about the uncertain future kencin over the company.

Although Zev was often been seen as a reckless playboy with little regard for tradition, his absence now lefi a gaping void. His lack of leadership skills was widely known, but without him, the company was directionless and adrift, lacking a clear leader.

Lockhart Group was in the midst of a financial disaster. Two major projects were running into serious funding problems, and with Zev gone, Wade's death, and Ken's defection, the company was on the brink of collapse. The loss of key figures had shaken the foundation of the organization, and the outcome seemed grim.

However, this wasn't the first time the company had faced such a crisis.

Years ago, when Sylvester had been kidnapped and murdered, Lockhart Group had been at a crossroads.

Wade's health had deteriorated drastically, and with no one at the helm, Lockhart Group had teetered on the edge of collapse. But he had endured too much in his lifetime to let himself fall. He knew he had no choice-he couldn't break, couldn't falter. For Zev's sake, he had to stay strong.

With Wade still in command, Lockhart Group held its place at the very top, unmoved by the chaos around it.

Everything he had built was meant for Zev. Say what you will-he was stubborn, inflexible, and unwilling to change-but in the end, his life was nothing short of extraordinary.

"Mr. Ashford, Mr. Lockhart ... " a voice quivered from the group.

If something happens to Mr. Lockhart...

"If something happens to Mr. Lockhart, who can hold the company together? His successor is too young, and no one else can take charge. With Ken gone, there's no one left to guide Lockhart Group."

The executives were clearly rattled. The tension in the room was palpable, and the fear of an impending collapse spread like wildfire.

"Mr. Ashford, can you shed some light on the financial situation? If this crisis can't be fixed, we need to start making plans," another executive pressed.

Murmurs of agreement filled the room. Everyone in that meeting had their own stakes in the company, and the idea of sticking around while Lockhart Group crumbled wasn't appealing. If the company was doomed, they wanted to get out while they still could.

"We've already had offers from other companies," one person added. "Headhunters are circling, clearly thinking Lockhart Group won't survive. If we're going to leave, now's the time." Someone mentioned the matter of jumping ship.

Quentin sighed deeply. "I've spoken with Mrs. Lockhart. We're working on a plan to solve this crisis...

The weight of the situation was clear. If they couldn't find a solution soon, Lockhart Group might not make it through.
