My Mommy's Brave Heart novel Chapter 88

Her father could get out uninjured, but she would not be so lucky.

Once the truth was exposed, she and her mother would be in great trouble.

Dew took a deep breath. “Dad, the shareholder meeting is starting. Let’s attend the meeting first.”

Most of Daugherty Corporation’s shares were held by the Daugherty family members. Aaron had 35%, Dew and Adina had 25% respectively, and the rest held a small portion.

Dew had initially been the biggest shareholder. After her shares were divided, she ranked second with Adina. To increase her power, Aaron transferred 1% to her. So, Adina became the third biggest shareholder with just 1% less than Dew.

Aaron sat in the main seat, while Dew and Adina sat on either side of him.

The big shareholders in the room had naturally heard about the change in the Daugherty family’s shares. Many of them were senior employees who had worked hard with Aaron in the past, so they knew the Daugherty family well. Before the meeting started, Dew had even talked to each of them personally…

A dozen of the shareholders exchanged looks and knew what to do.

“Are you Ms. Adina Daugherty? Why don’t you introduce yourself?” Mr. Lawson, the fourth biggest shareholder, was the first to speak, and he sounded sarcastic.

Adina raised her eyebrows, and her beautiful eyes were filled with indifference and arrogance. “Uncle Lawson, don’t you already know me from the past? Do I still have to introduce myself to you?”

Mr. Lawson faked a smile. “Kids grow up and change a lot. Your appearance has changed. If you don’t introduce yourself, how can we know for sure it’s you? Besides, we’re also interested to know what you’ve been through these last four years and whether you’re qualified to sit here and attend this meeting with us.”

“We need to set the course for the next quarter in each quarterly board meeting. If that’s not something you can do, it’d be better for you to turn left and leave the meeting room,” Mr. Porter added from the side.

The few remaining directors also looked over with unfriendly gazes.

Adina was mentally prepared for this.
