A surge of elation coursed through Kyle Astor. "Alexander had everything meticulously planned!" he exclaimed,
"We might just make it after all!"
Quinn shot him a surprised glance. Suddenly, it all made sense. Alexander's seemingly effortless return wasn't
without a strategy. He had a contingency plan in place all along. The implications were clear.
As Kyle had pointed out, if Alexander had recklessly returned and missed the crucial shareholders’ meeting, they
would both be left destitute, even if he had managed to bring her back.
A return without a plan would have been utterly futile. The helicopter began its descent, the force of the
downwash bending the grass on the shoreline and causing Quinn to squint against the wind. Without missing a
beat, Alexander scooped her up and swiftly boarded the helicopter.... Meanwhile, at the headquarters.
Wayne sat at the head of the table, his expression as stony as ever. He was flanked by the major shareholders,
while a young man, bearing a slight resemblance to Wayne, occupied the seat across from him.
The room was almost filled to capacity, save for the most prominent seat at the top-the CEO's place. This was
Alexander's seat, the head of the company.
The shareholders' meeting had been convened to address the recent crisis and elect a new CEO. Wayne, as the
chairman, had no intention of claiming the hot seat."Why hasn't he arrived yet?""Is he trying to make a
statement?""Hmph, | bet he's thrown in the towel.
With the stock plummeting like this, the CEO can't escape blame. He might've already fled.""Mr. Wayne, since
he's not here, let's proceed without him!"Wayne scanned the room before rising to his feet. "Since Alexander

Alexander submitted his resignation toearlier, and | thought we'd handle it here at the shareholders’
meeting by casting votes.""Now that he's not here, the vote seems unnecessary.""We need to appoint a new
CEO now. Whatever strategies we devise to tackle the current crisis at Landry Corp, we need someone to
execute them.
This CEO must be exceptionally capable, with strong leadership and decisive action.""If anyone has a suitable
candidate in mind, please propose them now so we can vote. "An uncomfortable silence filled the room;
everyone hesitant, mumbling, with no names put forward.
Wayne could tell by their reactions that they were still in Alexander's corner. He was even in the dark about when
exactly Alexander had becso close with them."Does nobody have a preferred candidate?" Wayne probed. An
elderly shareholder with graying hair spoke up, "Does Director Landry have someone in mind?"Wayne glanced at
the youthful executive across the table and said, "Letintroduce him to you-Landon Start, in charge of Landry
International.”

The young man stood graciously, "Greetings, I'm Landon Start, the head of Landry International. | haven't had
the pleasure of meeting most of you before. | look forward to working with all of you."Indeed, Landry had an
international division, but it was largely overlooked because its primary role was servicing the domestic
company.
It was part of the Landry Group, but operated independently, so its shares didn't factor into the domestic
ownership."So, does Landon's appearance signify a merge of international shares with the domestic ones?"
someone inquired. Wayne nodded affirmatively, "Exactly my thought.""The international branch doesn't hold as
many shares as the domestic company, but it's enough to address Landry's urgent needs.""Once we merge,
shares will be distributed according to the existing ratios.
