Chapter 1199
The shareholders exchanged uneasy glances.
If it had been anyone else, they might have brushed it off.
But this was Drake.
They all thought back to the extravagant banquets he had hosted in Seamar City. Many of them had attended, leaving evidence in Drake's hands.
If they offended him, he might leak those videos online. Their reputation would be ruined.
Melody sneered, "Debra, have you lost your mind? He's just someone from Orkgate. How far could his influence reach? We have appointed Theda as the next CEO. What's your game to stir up trouble here?"
"That's just a decision. If everyone agrees, we can still revoke it. Isn't that right, everyone?" Debra argued, sweeping her gaze over the room.
Those shareholders were as silent as the grave.
Melody laughed sarcastically, "Debra, are you crazy? Theda's appointment has already been finalized. Why would we revoke it? Even if Drake holds 45% shares, so what? Without more than 50%, he has no right to remove the CEO."
"Don't be so quick to dismiss it," Debra said calmly. "It's true that Mr. Lowe only holds 45% of shares, but we're consulting with other shareholders. If they agree, then Ms. Buchan's dismissal would be justified."
"Nonsense!" Melody snorted, "What makes you think they'll listen to you?"
Her friendship with these shareholders had been tested over time. There was no way they'd turn against her.
Undeterred, Debra walked up behind one of the shareholders. She leaned toward him and asked, "Mr. Blackburn, what do you say? Mr. Lowe wants to know if you agree to remove Ms. Buchan."
Carlo Blackburn gulped nervously. "I-I agree."
"Nonsense!" Melody slammed the table in fury. "Carlo, do you even know what you're saying?"
"Uh... Ms. Buchan is young. She might not be as capable as Mr.
Lowe. I think it's better to delay her appointment," he stammered.
Debra went on to ask another shareholder, "Mr. Shelton, what about you?"
"I-I also think Ms. Buchan's
appointment is a bit rushed. It

Debra turned to the other shareholders. "What does everyone else think?"noveldrama
"It's more suitable for Mr. Lowe to lead the company."
"Yes, Ms. Buchan is too young to take on such a big responsibility."
...
Melody was incandescent with anger. "What? Are you all out of your mind?"
She couldn't understand the sudden change in their attitudes.
"Well, everyone agrees that Ms. Buchan is too young for this role," Debra said, turning to Theda. "But Mr. Lowe is not an unreasonable person Ms. Buchan, you've worked hard managing the company these past few days. Since the Nichols Group has acquired Buchan Entertainment, why don't you stay and take a managerial role?"
Theda clenched the fake agreement in her hand and snorted, "What a game!"
What do you think?
