Hunter was being serious. Even the chair was damaged.
Had the chair not taken most of the pressure, Darrell’s bone would’ve been broken.
“I’m alright.” Darrell forced a smile, but it wasn’t as wide as before.
Gary’s face turned crimson out of anger, for he had not known the couple to be this malicious.
Since he couldn’t vent his anger at Hunter, he targeted Madison. “Ms. Evans, the shareholders’ voting is today. You shouldn’t be here.
“If you want to wait for Mr. Williams, I suggest you wait at the VIP guest room.”
Hunter hid her very well all these years. Not even Gary knew how much Hunter cared for her. Thus, he didn’t see her as Mrs.
Williams.
Noticing that Hunter was going to throw a tantrum again, Madison quickly held his hand in an attempt to placate his anger.
“Since it’s a voting among the shareholders, there’s no reason for me to leave. Uncle Gary, I bet you still don’t know that I also held some shares when there was a change to the shareholding a few days ago.”
Gary was baffled. “What did you say? You hold some shares?”
“The share transfer process was still ongoing, and it ended today. So, I’m officially a shareholder.”
On her second day of regaining consciousness, Hunter made her sign some documents. She didn’t take a good look at the content because there were too many of them!
It was only today that Madison found out that they were agreements for transferring shares, properties, assets, and whatnot.
The value of the transfer was huge. If the driver hadn’t rushed over to tell her about it, she might have been kept in the dark until now!
Hunter was really giving her the best he could.
Since it took a few days to process the procedures, there were no changes to the shareholders. That was why Darrell went all-
in by gambling his everything.
He didn’t foresee this!
But he collected his composure in no time. He had spent a lot of time preparing for today. He had bribed the necessary targets.
Even if Hunter had transferred some shares to Madison, he could only transfer those that were under his name.
The number of shares Darrell was holding didn’t change.
Dusting himself and ignoring his scraped skin, he returned to his seat. “Since Ms. Evans is also a shareholder, let’s officially start the voting. Don’t waste time on something unrelated to this matter.”
He acted so naturally, as though he was the man of the moment, and Madison found it weird.
It was their first time coming to the Williams Group, but why couldn’t she be as shameless as he was?
Hunter sat on her left while Darrell was sitting on her right. The two men, who looked similar, were sitting in the same position.
“Let’s begin.”
Darrell was confident. He always took action when he had full chances of winning.
The votes were counted, and the first few votes agreed to the agenda.
When more of the votes were counted, the smile on Darrell’s face slowly turned stiff.
According to the final result, only one-third of the votes agreed to dismiss Hunter from his position. Darrell slammed the table and sprang from his seat. “No way! This is impossible!”
Darrell had done everything in his power to gain favor from the majority of the shareholders. Thus, Hunter should be the losing party.
But how could this be?
Darrell requested to know the names of the voters only to realize that the people he bribed, especially those who held a lot of shares, were still siding with Hunter.
Even those who swore that they would support Darrell sided with Hunter!
Some of them even transferred their shares to Madison without Darrell’s knowledge.
Now, she possessed ten percent of the shares!
The effort he put in for years had gone down the drain.
It was a huge blow to him. Things weren’t going according to his plan. Just where did it go wrong?
It wasn’t like he spent one or two days getting in touch with those shareholders.
He knew that they were Hunter’s confidants, so Darrell showed them his sincerity as best as he could.
The other party agreed to side with Darrell, but they didn’t dare to get in Hunter’s bad books.
In order to keep Hunter in the dark, they reached a verbal agreement without going through the necessary procedures.
According to the initial agreement, the other party would transfer their shares to Darrell when he became the president after dismissing Hunter. They had even negotiated the price.
At that very moment, Darrell realized that those people didn’t betray Hunter at all. It was just a show!
Darrell looked at them with red eyes. “You lied to me!”
He was humiliated as much as he was proud a moment ago. He had spent a lot of money and effort on this.
Yet, it was all for nothing.
Anyone in his shoes would not be able to accept such an outcome.
Forget about money. He had turned into a big fool.
The notary announced the final result. “Due to insufficient votes, the proposal is rejected. Mr. Williams will remain as the president.”
Hunter gazed at Darrell’s contorted expression.
Instead of making things difficult for the other party, Hunter said coldly, “It looks like now you know why trick isn’t always the opted method in situations like this. I would like to thank you for letting me know who the rats are here.”
Darrell could no longer maintain that smile on his face. The nerves on his forehead protruded as he gritted his teeth. “Don’t get ahead of yourself. This is not over yet.”
Hunter was unbothered. “Security guards, send the guest off.”
He stood up and left while holding Madison’s hand.
His gaze swept across Gary and the gang casually before he left.
Although he did not utter a word, their hearts sank to the pit of their stomachs.
Hunter did not punish anyone for the past two years, but everyone knew what the aftermath of betraying him was.
There was only one outcome for siding with the wrong person.
When Madison walked out of the meeting room, she felt a beastly gaze eyeing her.
She looked back and happened to meet Darrell’s crazed and obsessive expression.
It was as if he was determined to have her.
It seemed like the Williamss were crazy to a certain extent.
Madison strode out of the suffocating room. The air outside was fresher to her.
“I was overly concerned about you. I didn’t know that you would win that easily,” she muttered.
Her heart surged to her throat when the driver told her everything about it. The past two days were chaos.
If someone seized the chance to set their carefully concocted plan into action, Hunter might not even stand a chance.
In the face of her concerned look, warmth seeped into Hunter, sweeping away the cloud of negative emotions.
He raised their holding hands to peck at the back of her hand. “I will never lose for you.”
Hunter explained the whole story to Madison in his office.
In fact, he had long known that Darrell was getting in touch with his men. Hunter played along with it by asking his subordinates to betray him in order to earn Darrell’s trust.
Darrell fell right into Hunter’s trap, and Hunter was able to root out the rats in the meantime.
Madison was gaping the whole time. Two days ago, she came across a content regarding the business scenarios in real life.
But the description was nothing compared to this. She thought, “Shouldn’t it be like the boss asks me to remove the cable in the competitor’s building or use black magic to ruin their business development?”
Hunter grazed her nose. “You’re drooling.” Comment by soonyoung gu: Huh
“I mean, you can tell me more about your studd. Otherwise, I’ll feel like I’m a good-for-nothing.” Comment by soonyoung gu: Huh
Her adorable expression made him chuckle. “I don’t really wanna drag you into this.”
“Since we’ve averted the company crisis, what about Mara’s case? Kelvin and Brent are still detained. I heard the Finance Department was taken into custody. The public opinion is worrying me.”
“Don’t be afraid. I’ve never messed up the financial statement. Someone’s copying the bad guys by reporting us. Let them be. I have my plans.”
Darrell was the only person out of his concern. After all, there was only one thing Darrell could win against Hunter.
That was family.
Now, Hunter was worried about the mastermind who was targeting Madison.
That mastermind was a very careful person. The hired assassin killed himself after getting caught, leaving no trace behind.
“What’s wrong? You won the game with perfection.”
Considering that Madison appeared more mentally stable than before, he added, “Madie, Darrell is not scary. The scary person is the one who hired an assassin to kill you when things were a mess.”
He hoped that she would watch out for a bit.
“The acid and dagger incident? Aren’t they merely Mara’s hardcore fans?”
“No. Someone bought him off to make him pretend to be her fan. He was only planning to cause a ruckus, but he noticed that you were there.
“So, he came up with a plan on the spot to kill you. Thank God you dodged it. I can’t bring myself to think what could’ve happened otherwise.”
Madison’s brows furrowed. “No wonder I sensed something off about him. He seemed murderous. Was he a professional?”
“Yes.”
She touched her belly. “Be honest with me. Do they have to do with my early delivery?”
“Yes. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t wanna upset you.”
She clenched her fists tightly. “What did I do wrong? Who do they want to kill me?”
Hunter caressed her cheek. “Madie, you’ve done nothing wrong. That person hid himself well. I’ve been looking for him with everything in my power.”
“Have you found him?”
“No. All I can say with certainty is that he’s out of the country. Not only can he hire an assassin whenever he wants, but he’s also a hacker.
“He can spend millions of dollars and use all of his resources to kill you. My only guess is that it has something to do with your identity.”
“My identity?”
Hunter recounted the situation briefly.
Madison lowered her gaze while giving it a serious thought for a moment.
“That means my parents could be someone extraordinary. My existence is posing a threat to some people. That’s why they don’t mind spending so much money to eliminate me?”
