The meeting was scheduled on the day Annie was discharged from the hospital.
Annie arrived at the Imbe Building with her team at around ten o'clock with a slightly pale complexion.
"Miss Annie Ross, you still look a bit unwell. If I had known about today's meeting, I would have postponed it for a couple of days," Athena said with great concern upon seeing Annie.
Annie's expression showed some worry. "I also wanted to meet you and Mr. Crawford, so I came. If there are any issues, there's no need for my assistant to report them to me again. We can solve them immediately."
Athena looked over at Annie.
The last time, the assistant was from Mailand, but now, she was a blonde with blue eyes, appearing more refined than the previous one.
Annie seemed to notice Athena's gaze and smiled, saying, "Geroge's arm was seriously injured, so I decided to give him an extended leave to spend Christmas with his parents."
Athena replied, "I visited him the other day, and his wound was severe. He needs a good rest. Let's start the meeting first and chat afterward."
Athena noticed Annie seemed much more anxious during the lengthy meeting than last time.
After more than four hours, they managed to resolve some fundamental issues.
"After this meeting, we won't see each other until after Christmas. I'd like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a prosperous year ahead," Athena said gently to the three parties' colleagues.
Everyone exchanged warm greetings and good wishes.
Everyone joined in and felt very happy.
Annie and her new assistant exchanged a few words, and then the assistant stood up and led the Ross family out of the conference room.
Byron looked at Annie and asked, "Miss Annie Ross, is there something else you'd like to discuss?"
Annie glanced at Byron and Athena before saying, "Did your media voluntarily expose the destruction of the two families as rumored online? Are they affiliated with you?"
"Yes, they are associated with me," Byron responded coldly, not saying much and waiting to know what Annie had to say.
