No one dared to argue further. His statement was clear-Jane would remain general manager.
"This partnership with Starlite was indeed a risky move," Pedro said. "But all of you were in favor of it at the time. We can't pin the blsolely on her. I trust she'll learn from this and avoid such risks in the future." The shareholders exchanged uneasy looks but said nothing more. After all, with Pedro holding 80% of the shares, the general manager would remain a Wilkie, no matter what.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJane mentally took note of the shareholders who had spoken against her, planning to deal with them once this crisis was truly over.
Back in the office after the meeting, Jane turned to Pedro. "Grandpa, thank you for speaking up forjust now. Otherwise, I can't imagine how far those shareholders would have gone in tearingdown." Pedro's gaze was icy. "Don't misunderstand. I only defended you because you're family. You'd better behave yourself and avoid giving the shareholders more ammunition. If you slip up again, I won't protect you." Jane lowered her eyes, hiding her dissatisfaction. "I understand, Grandpa." "The funds we invested in the Wilkie Group are just a stopgap," Pedro said. "The most urgent task now is to find a new partner. Otherwise, the Wilkie Group's entire production chain will grind to a halt." In recent years, the Wilkie Group had focused on chip production.
The company that betrayed them was their largest supplier, controlling the semiconductor materials essential for chip manufacturing. Without those materials, the Wilkie Group's production would stop entirely, incurring daily losses in the millions. The priority now was to find a new supplier, or the funds from selling the gaming company wouldn't last more than a few months.
Jane's expression grew serious. "I understand. Tomorrow, I'll head to Southernia and see if I can secure deals with smaller suppliers to keep the production line running while we search for a more stable long-term partner." "Good," Pedro said. "But don't mess this up again. If you do, I won't wait for the shareholders to take action-I'll remove you myself." With that, he stood and left.
Jane took a deep breath, suppressing her frustration, and called her secretary to finalize the details for her trip.

Mason's features resembled Damon's. When Mason frowned, the resemblance was uncanny.

couldn't help feeling a surge of dislike. His hatred for Damono m hatred for extended to Mason, making it hard for him to warm up to the boy.
Mason recognized Gabriel and nodded politely. "Yes, you're here to pick up Wilhelm right? When I left, he was still packing up his things. He should be out soon." "Right. Is someone here to pick you up? Your mom?" Gabriel asked.
