Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Chapter 953: 953. How can there still be people who don’t understand the rules at all?

Companies like this financing one only care about providing the funds; they don’t get involved in anything else. How could anyone dream of such a partner and not hope for such a regulation to exist?

Edward Gresia saw the shareholders, who were originally scheduled to tattle on Elly Campbell or make Adam Jones, who would defend her, feel embarrassed, now bowing their heads lower and lower under Adam’s questioning.

Feeling anxious, Edward hastily spoke up:

"President Jones, we’re not worried about that, what we feel is..."

He paused, casting a nervous glance at Adam, his expression somewhat ambiguous, but still he continued:

"We suspect that the company is related to Madam Jones."

At these words, Adam laughed, but a closer look revealed no smile in the depths of his eyes.

Clearly, Edward’s direct suspicion towards Elly had angered Adam.

Feeling the sudden chill that gathered around him, Robert Green involuntarily looked towards Adam, and indeed, he saw his boss’s smile that was more frightening than his scowl.

People, amnesiac or not, still have the same instinct to protect their wives.

Compared to the Adam before the memory loss, who was only known for his pride and desire to save face, the current Adam seemed to have a much higher emotional quotient.

Inwardly, Robert gave his boss a thumbs-up.

"Even if it were related, what of it? At which point did her actions not follow the rules?"

Adam stared into Edward Gresia’s eyes with an aggressive gaze that made Edward instinctively shrink his pupils in fear.

"Even if that company belongs to my wife, she has invested bona fide capital into Jones. What’s it to you? Or are you suggesting..."

He narrowed his eyes, locking onto Edward’s guilt-ridden, evasive gaze, and said:

"Are you suggesting that the financing company must be in cooperation with Director Gresia, or directly a company behind Director Gresia?"

Adam’s words startled Edward so much that he stood up abruptly, "President Jones, it’s pointless for you to speak like this, I..."

"I don’t need you to agree on what’s meaningful or not. My wife has absolute say in Jones, not to mention that this financing was approved by your votes. If she wanted to force a financing, it’s not your place to criticize anything."

"Jones was able to stabilize this time because my wife single-handedly supported it. If you feel aggrieved as shareholders in Jones, you’re free to leave. If you choose not to, then fulfill your roles dutifully and receive what you’re supposed to from Jones."

At this point, he paused and with a piercing gaze fixed on Edward’s face, he said:

"But if I hear even half a word against my wife again, don’t blame me for being rude."

Having said that, and with a warning glance at Edward, he then walked out of the conference room.

The oppressive atmosphere that had hovered over everyone’s heads seemed to lift slightly once Adam left.

Adam had left, but Robert remained in the conference room, looking at the meek behavior of the various managers and the petrified expression of the other shareholders, then at Edward’s sullen face, a faint smile curved up at the corner of his lips.

"Everyone knows the president doesn’t like people speaking ill of his wife, and after all this time, it’s surprising some people still don’t understand the rules."

Aside from those close to Adam, none of the shareholders or managers knew about his memory loss.

Seeing Adam defend Elly in such a way didn’t surprise anyone.

This was also why the other shareholders, who had originally agreed to discuss the previous financing issues with Adam, ended up not daring to utter a word when facing him.
