With her words, the air in the room seemed to freeze.
Cathryn stared intently at Marion, knowing full well the influence the Bernard family held overseas and how
crucial it was to Marion’s position.
She couldn't believe that he would give up everything just for Debra’s sake.
Debra smirked at her naivety. Cathryn had clearly been sheltered too much by Shawn, unaware of the harsh
realities of the world outside.
In this situation, she had no leverage against Marion at all.
Debra asked calmly, “Where's the evidence?”

Cathryn was confused. “What evidence?”
“Naturally, the evidence of Mr. Bernard's request for Marion,” Debra replied. “You saying that your father
required Marion to marry you. Got any witnesses or documents prove it? Otherwise, people might think you're
just using this as an excuse to force Marion.

Cathryn paused. “My father made this request on his deathbed. | was there, and so was
Marion.”
“Just the two of you?” Debra said, looking troubled. “That's a problem. You two have. conflicting statements, and
since both of you are involved, we can't trust either of you. Do

Cathryn’s face turned paler and paler. All of this was just something Shawn had said verbally. It wasn’t included
in his will.
“It seems there aren't any. In that case, you're just talking without any legal basis.”
“I understand. Everything you've done is to make Marion marry you. But to go to such lengths? I'm genuinely
concerned about the future of the company. If someone like you takes charge, | worry there won't be any good
days left for anyone.
Her words were sharp and hit home. These shareholders were dissatisfied with Marlon simply because they
wanted to seize power and make Cathryn a puppet. But at the end of the day, it was about making money.

Otherwise, when Shawn died, they wouldn't have remained silent and let Marion take control. They jumped out
now with the sole aim of getting a piece of the pie.
Debra added, “I think everyone should consider this carefully. Following Marion, you make hundreds of millions a
year. A change in leadership might bring you nothing.”
Sshareholders who weren't from the Bernard family wavered. They hadn't really intended to overthrow
Marion; they were just trying to curry favor with the elders.
If Marion stepped down, the elders would be satisfied. If Marion didn’t step down, they would continue to attend
the shareholders’ meeting. Either way, they had nothing to lose. From Cathryn’s demeanor, they could tell that
she was too immature to match Marion.
