Chapter 559: Change of Heir (1)_1
So, they set their sights on the illegitimate child of the Brown family. They got in touch with the illegitimate child and established a cooperative relationship. That legal assistant was a person working for Brown Kress, his half-brother by the same father.
"Mrs. Brown, you are mistaken. Your other son didn’t collude with us. We were merely helping the Brown Group to find a more suitable manager. Moreover, Mrs. Brown, have you ever considered that, given Brown Kress’s recent actions, it would be impossible for him to stay in Brown Group anyway? All we did was to request our designated person to take over the position after Brown Kress stepped down," Liu Yuxiang said, relaxing into the sofa.
"Alright, Mrs. Brown, we’ve said all that needs to be said. You can go back and think it over," Xia Yujie said, clearly implying that it was time for her to leave.
Mrs. Brown stood up and left, sensing the situation. However, as she left, her expression grew increasingly ugly.
As Mrs. Brown left Dragon Society, she was determined not to agree to the suggestions of Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang. How could she hand over the power of the Brown family to the bastard son she detested?
But this determination didn’t last long. Once the scandal involving Brown Kress was exposed, coupled with some companies’ termination of their contracts with Brown Group upon hearing rumors of potential bankruptcy, many companies whose contracts with Brown Group were expiring declined to renew them.
Such consecutive blows left the already precarious Brown Group teetering. Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang then sent someone to communicate their suggestions for the contract amendment to the shareholders of Brown Group.
Upon hearing this news, during the shareholders’ meeting, they proposed the demand that Brown Kress step down. Mrs. Brown was, of course, unwilling, but even if she objected, the Brown Group wasn’t hers alone.
The shareholders showed Mrs. Brown what would happen if they didn’t comply with Dragon Society’s demands. Facing these facts, Mrs. Brown had no choice but to lower her head and tacitly agree to the shareholders’ proposal.
Brown Kress stepped down from the position of CEO of Brown Group. He even lost his status as the Family Head of the Brown family.
