Chapter 225: Baggage
As Yera expected, she was hearing a lot of negative feedback from the board of directors because of last night’s party.
"You have to tell us what is it between you and Xander Yang. You clearly know that Yang Globals group has been our competitor from the start. How can you have a scandal with him?..." one of the board members commented.
Yera arched her eyebrows and said, "What’s with all this reaction from you all? I don’t see how this incident will affect our group? Don’t tell me that all of you have enough time to care about my personal affairs this time? Should I be glad because you all are particularly taking interest in my love life? To be honest, I find it absurd to call a meeting where we don’t discuss anything that’s related to plans or projects to expand the Life Hospitals group?"
Yera stood up from her chair and smiled. "I do appreciate your concern about it though but let me handle my lovelife myself. You all are aware that I need all of you and your cooperation and support. Let’s focus on how we can improve and expand our group rather than discuss this kind of nonsense... If there is nothing important to address then I shall take my leave first."
No one spoke a word after Yera did so she bade her farewell and left. She was already working with winning the votes of half of the board members. While she needed to work more strategically for winning the other half.
As soon as Yera left, the half who were loyal to the Han Family also left and the remaining half went out to secretly have a meeting at a private dining place.
"What happened? Aren’t you two getting along? You do know that a merger might possibly happen if Yera and that Xander ended up together! And we will end up being under the Yang Globals group if anything of that sort happens!" Mr. Lua exclaimed. He was too disappointed that Lyndon did not even bother to say a word during the meeting as the Vice Chairman.
"Did we put you in that position just in vain?" one of the board members hissed. It was Lyndon who had promised them a lot of unsaid benefits, once he was put in the position of the Chairman but looking at Lyndon’s silence today was making them all uneasy.
"I suggest we use this opportunity to vote for the new Chairperson! Yera Han was gone for too long whereas we all were toiling here to keep the Life Globals group rise high and mighty. She was absent for years from here! Not in service for years! How dare she suddenly show up and claim the position of chairperson that easily and to top it all, be arrogant enough to do whatever she likes! If we all combine our shares it would be more than enough to kick her out of her position and crush her arrogance and pride!" Mr. Lua encouraged.
