Chapter 1538

[ 654 words ]

“Juniper Payne, you ungrateful wretch! If we hadn’t adopted you, you would have died in a ditch somewhere long ago!”

“Ju-mmph-“

Malcolm was still cursing up a storm when Felton clamped a hand over his mouth and quickened his pace to drag him away.

Watching Malcolm being pathetically “thrown out,” the other board members looked at each other in dismay.

They didn’t know what this Ms. Payne was planning to do next.

“Next, I will send someone to temporarily take over the group.”

Juniper’s gaze swept over the crowd, and she said unhurriedly, “The Subterra Vanguard from Australis will also inject three billion to help the Sherwin Group reconnect with our partners.”

“Subterra Vanguard?”

The board members were beyond shocked. This was a massive organization that could rival the Schwartz Group.

Three billion.

In all their lives, they had never heard of such a massive sum of money.

“Also, rehire the veterans Malcolm fired. And for the board members present here, your shares will be increased, and your salaries doubled.”

“The Sherwin Group is my grandfather’s life’s work. I’m young, and in many areas, I might not understand as much as you gentlemen. The future development of the group will depend on all of you.”

“Yes, Ms. Payne.”

The board members exchanged glances and suddenly stood up, their eyes frighteningly determined.

“We will absolutely dedicate ourselves entirely to the company, giving it our all.”

Increased shares, doubled salaries…

Listen to that.

This was what a real leader did, vastly better than that penny-pincher Malcolm.

“No need to go that far.” Juniper’s lips twitched. “Get someone to put a sign at the entrance. The slogan will read: ‘No Sherwins or Dogs Allowed.”

The board members remained silent.

After handling the matters.

Juniper and Shanley left the group and got back into the car.

“Boss, where to?” Felton asked.

“The estate?” Shanley held Juniper’s hand, the corners of his lips curling up slightly. “Miranda made something delicious for you.”

“To the Sherwin residence.”

Juniper thought for a moment, her expression grave. “I’m going to resolve everything today.”

Malcolm wasn’t the only one in the Sherwin family.

“Yes, Ms. Payne.”

Soon.

The sports car pulled up outside the Sherwin villa.

Juniper hadn’t forgotten that the last

time

here was the day of

her father’s funeral, after she

had returned from looking for medicine. . FindNovel.net

The sky had been dark, the rain pouring down.

She had knelt on the ground staring at her grandfather’s portrait for a very, very long time.

She, who never believed in the divine,

miracle, praying that her grandfather could come back to life.

ead desperately hoped foret

She would have paid any price, even giving up years of her own life.

But.

There were no ‘what-ifs.’

In the blink of an eye, the old man had been gone for almost two years.

Looking at the familiar house, Juniper’s eyes grew moist, her throat aching intensely.

“Once things are settled here, I’ll go visit Grandpa with you.”

Shanley wrapped an arm around her

waist dropping a kiss on her

forehead and said gently “It’s about

time he got to see the man

you’re

marrying.”

“Yeah.”

Juniper nodded, nuzzling against his chest, feeling much more at ease.

Walking up to the door.

They suddenly heard the sound of things crashing inside, like a heated argument was taking place.

“Ms. Payne, Boss, be careful.”

Felton moved to shield them, while Flint craned his neck forward, whistling softly. “Wow, what a mess.”

Juniper stepped forward, looking into the house.

Things were smashed all over the place. Malcolm, Frigga, and a heavily pregnant mistress were screaming at each other.

Smashing things as they cursed.

Yolanda was sitting on the floor, her face covered in tears.

“You dare show your face here!”

Hearing the commotion, Malcolm glared viciously at Juniper. “Get out! Get the hell out of here!”

He couldn’t go back to the group, and he was up to his eyeballs in debt.

The mistress wanted an explanation, and his wife wanted a divorce.

His home was a total disaster zone.

“Who are you telling to get out?”

Flint kicked the debris out of the way, clearing a space and pulling up two chairs for Juniper and Shanley to sit on.

Looking at the towering figures of Felton and Flint, Malcolm didn’t dare make a

move.
