“I don’t believe Mr. Whittle is unfamiliar with these transactions. As for the rest of you.”
Wynter’s smile deepened a fraction before she said, “It’s about time you see them for yourselves.”
All of the shareholders were quiet. None of them dared to speak out.
Jordan still wanted to explain himself. “The accountants are the ones managing these transactions.
“Also, the investments recorded within the transactions are investments the board had agreed on. I shall call the personnel in charge of these accounts over now!”
Wynter’s voice was flat. “There’s no need for all that trouble. Mr. Whittle, you seem to have Alexis has already called the police to investigate the matter.”
forgotten that Jordan immediately stood up. He couldn’t sit still as he never expected the police to be involved.
Since the start of the meeting, he had decided to make a small joke and make things difficult for Wynter. But now, he might end up in jail if the police find anything, never mind his position as a shareholder.
“Mr. Quinnell, please say something! Mr. Quinnell!” Jordan was shouting at Shane.
Throughout the years, he had only been supporting Shane and not any of Fabian’s proposals. Shane could not just ignore him and allow him to be sent to prison.

Some of the shareholders were beginning to slam their hands on the table.

According to the documents in their hands, Jordan had gone behind their backs and taken around 20 million.
Most of the shareholders there didn’t know about Jordan’s acts. Now that they knew, they were more
than ready to throw hands!
was on Shane’s side.
Most of the shareholders in the room considered themselves superior to others as they worked for Shane and were able to call the shots.
