Back in Digton City, the Fowlers were newly empowered with Douglas’ appearance and started acting like emperors in the Fowler Corporation. They snatched the seal of the Finance Department and, at one time, even occupied the office to disrupt daily work, causing the entire company to come to a grinding halt.
To Selena’s horror, Douglas suddenly emerged with a lot more shares than she had anticipated, leading her to guess that Douglas’ real father might have been ‘collecting’ shares for him by purchasing shares left and right in the market. As for the Fowlers, they were surprisingly united in transferring all their shares to Douglas, their puppet king.
When Pierre was still alive, he had transferred a portion of his shares to Selena to manage the risk. Since the current debate was centered around inheritance, the Fowlers would only look into the shares that were under Pierre’s name.
The inheritance distribution was a complex issue. At that moment, no one could claim Pierre’s shares because Selena had lodged a suit against the conflict between the family rule and Pierre’s will. Therefore, Pierre’s shares were temporarily frozen, and no one could inherit them at the moment.
However, the lawsuit might play out across an extended period of time. It was impossible for the Fowler Corporation to halt its operations for the duration of the lawsuit. That was why everyone was fighting with the hope of crushing their enemies before the case was closed.
Douglas’ side was collecting shares like crazy in order to overpower Selena. If that happened, he could take over as president and exercise authority.
One day, Selena received a notice to attend the shareholders’ meeting, and she knew that the day had arrived.
Dressed in a clean and crisp business suit, she arrived at the Fowler Corporation with Niall and took the president’s seat.
Since she had arrived a little late, everyone else was already seated.
“Selena, I think you sat in the wrong seat again.” Although Joseph was old, he was quite sprightly and radiant. By the looks of it, she knew that Douglas’ father must have agreed to reward Joseph handsomely for his cooperation.
“Uncle Joseph, you have said that line countless times, but I am still sitting in the president’s seat.”
