Shaun casually dragged a chair to sit on before he asked indifferently, “As far as I know, isn’t there’s conflict over the shares?”
Wade replied with a smile, “Titus previously wanted to sue us and recover his wife’s assets. But according to Chairwoman Cox, she has signed a prenuptial agreement with him. This means that President Costner has no right to ask for the money Chairwoman Cox offered to Rosabella. So, Chairwoman Cox went to court in person and dismissed the case. Although Rosabella acquired Lyons Corporation using Chairwoman Cox’s money, Jeffery is Rosabella’s father. After some discussion on the distribution of the 70 percent of the shares Rosabella owns, 50 percent will be given to Jeffery and 20 percent to Sheryl.”
Shaun raised his brows in surprise. He glanced at Sheryl and noticed that she looked rather composed, seemingly satisfied with the decision.
However, Jeffery said bashfully, “Sherry, since you were the one who paid for the acquisition of the company, you should receive more shares. Yet, you’re giving me 5o percent of the shares. I… Sigh… Why don’t you take back some of it?”
“No need, Jeffery. After all, Australia isn’t my focus, so I won’t manage Lyons Corporation much. What’s more, it hasn’t been easy for you to look after Rosabella and Mom over the years. This is a token of my appreciation.”
As Sheryl was speaking, she cast a look at Wade. ” From now on, you need to assist Jeffery, the chairman, to the best of your abilities.”
Wade widened his eyes. “Do you mean Jeffery will be the chairman?”
“Duh. ” Sheryl shot an indifferent look at Shaun. ” Considering that Jeffery and my shares add up to 70 percent, we have the right to appoint a new chairperson. Am I right, Chairman Lyons?”
“Yes.” Shaun nodded with a smile.
Shaun seemed so obedient, without the slightest arrogance he had before. At that, Jeffery was very conceited, but he could not express it. Hence, he pretended to look guilty. “Sheryl, but I—“
“Don’t worry, Jeffery. I know quite a lot of people overseas. I’ll get some powerhouses to support Lyons Corporation, ” Sheryl interrupted him.
Jeffery looked touched, but deep down, he was already walking on air.
Wade said emotionally, “Well, let me congratulate you in advance, Chairman Cox. But there’s something…”
He held back and glanced at Shaun. “A few days ago, Chairman Lyons said that I’m not eligible to be the general manager of the company due to the conflict over the shares. Cate also said that I have poor management skills. Now that Young Master Lyons is the new president of the company, I At the mention of Cate, Sheryl’s eyes were filled with resentment. She looked at Shaun resentfully as well. “What gives Cate the right to be involved in our company’s affairs? Shaun, to put it bluntly, you’re incapable of managing Lyons Corporation. If you were, you wouldn’t have failed to keep it. After the meeting, you can pack your things and go home. The company no longer needs the Lyonss’ involvement.”
“Sheryl… I don’t think this is good,” Jeffery promptly said.
“Jeffery, you’re too soft—hearted. Some people are ambitious even though Lyons Corporation no longer belongs to them. By the way, I think it’s time to change Lyons Corporation’s name. From now on, Lyons Corporation will be renamed… Jere Corporation.”
Jere Corporation.
It was made up of the first two letters of Jeffery’s and Rosabella’s names. ¡®
Jeffery’s and Sally’s eyes lit up.
Shaun fixed his eyes on Sheryl, his lips slowly curling into a sarcastic smile.
“What gives? Are you dissatisfied?” Sheryl looked at him coldly.
Shaun chuckled. “I just don’t understand how some people can do big businesses overseas with their brains full of crap?”
Sheryl’s face turned somber, and the bodyguards behind her roared, “How dare you insult our island owner.”
“Teach him a lesson.” Sheryl shot a look at the bodyguards behind her.
The eight bodyguards immediately walked up to Shaun.
Jeffery and the others just sat back and watched the scene.
Hadley panicked. “Young Master…”
“You guys want to fight, huh? There are so many people here. Please don’t blame me if I accidentally hurt anyone.” Grinning, Shaun rolled up his sleeves.
Sheryl snorted. “Break his leg.”
At first, she just watched on coldly. She wanted to teach Cate a lesson, yet Cate still had not shown up. She heard that Cate had also deceived Shaun. Since Shaun was Cate’s ex- husband, Sheryl would make a move against him first.
Nevertheless, Sheryl’s expression shifted after three minutes.
Shaun was such a sly person. Knowing that he could not deal with the eight bodyguards, he had taken Jeffery and Sally as his shields, which made the bodyguards hesitate before attacking him.
“Three of you, protect my brother and sister-in- law.” Sheryl changed her plan.
Without the three bodyguards, however, the five bodyguards were no match for Shaun. Soon, he broke all of their legs.
“Oh no. I’m sorry. You guys were too brutal, so I had no choice but to counterattack.” Shaun smiled a s he stepped on a bodyguard’s face.
Seeing his arrogant behavior, Sheryl was so exasperated that she slapped the table and leaped to her feet. She picked up a cup and hurled it at Shaun before instructing the three remaining bodyguards, “You guys have to beat him to death. “
The three bodyguards were in agony. The five bodyguards could not even defeat Shaun, let alone the three of them.
Considering that Sheryl had lost her temper, the three of them bit the bullet and made a move against Shaun. In the end, they were beaten up horrifically.
“Chairwoman Cox, these people are too sh*tty, ” Shaun tutted as he shook his head. Then, he turned around and swaggered out with his hands in his pockets.
When he walked out the door, he heard Sheryl snapping at them inside. “You useless trash. I’ve spent so much money nurturing you guys, but it’s all a waste of my money. All of you, go to hell.”
Shaun furrowed his brows.
Hadley said, “Sheryl’s illness is getting more serious, yet she’s not having it treated.”
“Yeah. She’s so foolish to help someone else too. Hah, Jere Corporation. When she becomes sensible, I reckon she’ll cry over the silly things she has done.”
Soon after Shaun walked into his office, Wade came in with a group of security guards to kick him out. ” Young Master Lyons, I know we’re no match for you, but you’ve been dismissed. If you insist on staying here, no one is going to care about you either. It’s better for you to leave now. There’s no point in staying here shamelessly.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll leave.” With a grim expression, Shaun had Hadley pack his things before they left together.
Only after Wade watched Shaun step out the door did he call Wesley. “President Sanderson, Shaun has bugged off.”
“Excellent.” Wesley could not hide the smugness in his voice.
The day he had been waiting for had finally arrived. Once Jeffery became the chairman, Wesley would be able to take control of Lyons Corporation since he had a hold over Jeffery.
In the car.
Shaun looked at the time and saw that it was only 11:00 a.m.
He did not expect himself to be chased out so soon after he arrived.
He looked out and saw a mall. “Head over there. I want to buy some toys for Lucas and Suzie.”
“Okay.”
He had no idea which floor the toy department was located on. When he took the elevator up, he spotted a female clothing store at the side. The clothes were beautiful, especially the dress in the display case. He was certain that Cate would look pretty in it.
He strode toward the salesperson. Just as he was about to speak, a young woman’s voice suddenly sounded from behind.
“Miss, I’d like to buy this dress…”
He turned around, only to see a luxuriously dressed woman who looked like a young lady from a wealthy family. She had striking features and appeared to be in her early 20s.
The moment the woman saw him, her eyes lit up. She suddenly smiled. “Young Master Lyons, how have you been?”
After pausing for a moment, she covered her lips. ” Oops, that’s not right. Since Lyons Corporation will soon be renamed, I’m afraid you’ll no longer be addressed as Young Master Lyons.”
Shaun’s gaze was cold. “Who are you?”
The young woman froze before she reacted. “Oh, I forgot that you’ve become a fool some time ago, and you’ve forgotten many things. That’s alright. Let me introduce myself again. I’m Hannah Mead, and Minister Mead is my dad.”
After that, the corners of her mouth turned smug. ” Well, look at you. When I pursued you previously, you weren’t interested in me. Now that the Lyons family is in trouble, what can Cate do for you?”
Shaun blinked, and his eyes flashed with faked surprise. He even curved his mouth into a carefree smile. “I didn’t expect you’d be Miss Mead. My bad.”
At the sight of his captivating smile, Hannah was dazed for a few seconds. By the time she recovered from her musings, she felt smug.
Back then, Shaun was not interested in her. However, now that her identity was different, his attitude towards her was different as well.
She knew that Shaun was a shadow of his former self. Moreover, he had lost his memory, so it was usual for him to think of buttering her up.
If it had been someone else, she might not be interested, but Shaun was different. Despite his crew cut, his features appeared more prominent and attractive.
