NovelEnglish"Let's see who dares to challenge me!" Wayne's words echoed in the room, his gaze sweeping across the faces
of everyone present.
His fury was palpable, yet it seemed more like a desperate struggle than a display of strength.
As the room reacted to Alexander's call for a vote, an older man, his hair graying with age, raised his hand
without hesitation.
Following his lead, hands began to rise one after another. Alexander had boldly laid his shares on the table, and
it was becoming increasingly clear who held the reins of power within the company.
Those who were not firmly aligned with Alexander seemed to sway like reeds in the wind. Seeing the majority of
hands raised, they too followed suit.
The vote was twelve to one. The lone dissenter was Wayne himself. Wayne stood there, his face a mask of
disbelief. He was stunned, unable to comprehend that he was being so abruptly ousted from the board.
A smile played on Alexander's lips. "Mr. Landry... or should | say, Dad, the outcis clear. At your age, you
should be enjoying your golden years at home, not wrestling with company matters."Wayne's gaze was fierce, as
if he could flay Alexander with his eyes alone.
Unfazed, Alexander continued, "Earlier, you mentioned transferring your shares to this gentleman, Mr. Landry. |
think it's a commendable idea. It seems like you've been contemplating your departure from the board for some
time.""Why delay the inevitable? Let's proceed with the share transfer today.""Bullshit! Who said | was giving
them to him?" Wayne retorted.

A voice chimed in, "You did, Mr. Wayne. It's all on record. You've been a chairman before; surely you wouldn't go
back on your word now?"Wayne was left speechless. His initial intention had been to bring Lance Quinn onto the
board. But now, with Alexander firmly in control, if Quinn were to join the board after the international merger...
It would mean Alexander had emerged victorious.
With minimal effort, he had resolved the company's crisis and, in the process, absorbed the Quinn International
Group. What a strategic move!" disagree. | said | would transfer my shares to him only if Quinn becomes the
CEO..." Wayne argued."That's perfectly fine. Mr. Quinn can take over as CEO," Alexander responded.Wayne fell
silent, his resistance crumbling. He slumped into his chair, the reality of his downfall sinking in.He was finished...
Meanwhile, in a villa, several electronic experts summoned by Kyle Astor were struggling to remove the metal
band around Quinn's ankle.
Despite their efforts, they seemed to be making no progress."Any luck? Can you remove it?" Sean asked,
standing off to the side.Sean was a part of Alexander's inner circle.
Quinn had seen him a few times before but didn't really know his role or position. He was rarely seen with
Alexander, and this was Quinn's first real interaction with him."The material's peculiar. Our standard tools have
no effect," one expert admitted."What about using a chemical agent to corrode it?"
