If they followed Vanessa... who knows what kind of chaos the company will face! "Uh, can I say something?" One of the minor shareholders stood up and said, "Look, I don't care if it's the White family or the Costello family in charge. As long as I make money and get my dividends every year, I'm good. So, for this vote, I'm neutral...I'm neutral." Another shareholder stood up, "Yeah, I'm neutral too..." too, sorry Johns..." Several others who had promised to back Johns also stepped back.
Colby spoke slowly, "By the way, your old buddy, Dominic, has just been kicked out of the company. If anyone else here wants the sfate, feel free to stand up." Hearing this, Johns's face turned dark, "Colby! Dominic was one of our major shareholders. What gives you the right to fire him?" Colby replied calmly, "I own sixty percent of the shares, which givesabsolute authority. If anyone wants to leave Costello Corporation, just say the word. I have plenty of money to buy back your shares, and more ways to make you want to leave voluntarily. If you don't want your shares, there are plenty of people out there who do." Everything Colby said was the harsh truth. Those who had been pushing for Colby to step down were now too scared to even breathe loudly.

I realize my mistake too... I won't do it again! Please, Colby, have mercy!" The shareholders who had been reprimanded were now kneeling on the ground, begging for forgiveness. Everyone in the room knew about Colby's ruthless methods. They had just forgotten the sting after their wounds had healed, forgetting how Colby had dealt with those who were on the fringes of the White family.
"Anyone else want to leave? I'll count to three." Just as Colby was about to count, the remaining shareholders' defenses completely collapsed, and one by one, they hurriedly stepped forward to beg for mercy.
Soon, only Johns and Vanessa were left standing against Colby.
Vanessa hadn't expected that the uncles who had asked her to stand up and had kindly advised her were now cowering.
Johns, with a dark expression, pointed at those traitors and gritted his teeth, "You, you guys!" "It's not that we're disloyal, Johns. There's just no winning against Colby! You should cover too!" "Yeah, Johns, I told you so, but you wouldn't listen!" With a grim face, Johns said, "You may lack spine, but I don't! Whoever wants the Costello family's shares can have them!" Johns dragged Vanessa, intending to leave the conference room.
Colby raised an eyebrow but didn't have anyone stop them, letting Johns leave the conference room.
