The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 497 The Big Trouble of Smith Corporation

Veda practically sprinted back to the office.

Just as she feared, in just a few hours, the situation at Smith Corporation had gone from bad to worse.

With no official statement from Smith Corporation, the media assumed Michael was cornered and ramped up their coverage, even starting live broadcasts right outside the company's doors.

By noon, Smith Corporation's stock had plummeted to unprecedented lows.

Shareholders were driving in from all over, gathering in the large conference room on the third floor, demanding the Smith family provide an explanation.

But someone had arrived even earlier than the shareholders.

Veda pushed open the door to find Scarlett sitting on the couch, leisurely reading a newspaper.

She was so shocked she thought she might be dreaming, until Scarlett looked up and smiled.

"Veda, you're finally here. Things are chaotic outside, but don't worry, I'm here to help you."

Scarlett's face was a picture of shrewd calculation, though Veda couldn't see it.

Scarlett had been abroad for a while, and the old grudges had mostly faded. After all, Veda was her daughter. Could she really hold a grudge against her?

Veda quickly broke down in tears and threw herself into Scarlett's arms.

She had been holding up Smith Corporation on her own for so long, and now, with the company in turmoil caused by Michael, she was at her breaking point.
