Chapter 301: Honey can do whatever she wants_1
"Adam, have you forgotten how Elly treated you? Adam, Adam, you can’t treat me this way, Adam..."
Adam Jones sat impassively next to Elly Campbell, his gaze shifting to the other directors in the conference room who had remained silent, and his lips curved into a slight smile—
"Alright, let the meeting begin."
Elly didn’t expect Adam to show up, let alone so directly have Sophie Baker kicked out, not even sparing James Campbell any face.
But at this moment, she had to admit, after that noisy wild chicken was chased out, her ears were indeed much quieter.
James was so angry that he felt like he was choking, his eyes nearly splitting with rage as he stared at Elly’s calmly composed face.
"Elly, have you... have you even got any respect for me in your eyes?"
At his words, Elly lazily lifted her eyelids, and with a sneer directed at James’s uncontrollably angry face, she said indifferently, "No."
"Tsk—"
A disrespectful chuckle sounded in her ear, "Naughty."
Elly’s gaze, lazy and detached, drifted to the side, meeting Adam’s eyes brimming with a smile.
At this moment, James’s face looked hideous and twisted with rage, and the gaze of everyone else was as if they were watching a farce.
In the eyes of these shareholders, James indeed lacked decorum in his private life, but he had managed to turn the Campbell company around in its time of crisis, and naturally, he had his methods.
Of course, they didn’t know that it was truly Elly who had turned the company’s fortunes around behind the scenes back then; naturally, they assumed that James still had some tricks up his sleeve when it came to handling the company.
Even if in these past few years, he hadn’t made any significant developments, no one denied his "great achievements" from back then.
In the eyes of everyone else, this capable and bold chairman of the board had repeatedly suffered setbacks in front of his daughter and son-in-law, with his dignity trampled directly underfoot. He was flustered with no further action, and people’s gazes towards him became a bit nuanced.
"Elly, don’t think just because you hold the most shares, you can do whatever you want!"
James was so infuriated he was dizzy, and now, he was like a buffoon, completely devoid of any dignity in front of his daughter and son-in-law.
"With my additional fifteen percent of shares, I can indeed do whatever I want," Adam interjected casually once more, and everyone present, including James, gasped in shock.
To Sophie Baker, that fifteen percent simply represented billions of dollars in money, but everyone present knew that this fifteen percent symbolized absolute power.
If Elly’s thirty-five percent of shares could only give her relative controlling power in Campbell, then the fifteen percent from Adam granted her fifty percent of the shares.
This meant she had absolute controlling power over Campbell.
To put it plainly, she had the final say in the whole Campbell enterprise; it was essentially Elly’s monologue.
Wasn’t it just what Adam had said, "do whatever you wanted"?
If other shareholders could understand this, why couldn’t James?
If Campbell truly came under Elly’s control, then going forward, there would basically be nothing left for James to do within Campbell.
Not to mention whether he could even retain his seat as chairman of the board, any decision he made could be blocked if Elly intentionally opposed him.
And there was no point even mentioning his plans to have Sophie and Sophie Baker join the company.
In short, with Elly around, he certainly wouldn’t have any good days ahead.
