Chapter 410
Sienna listened to the discussions outside the door and pursed her lips for a while before saying. “Liam’s people skills aren’t great, huh? Not many of these old folks are on his side”
Mr. Robinson went silent.
He thought the old lady was worried about handling the situation, but she wasn’t in a hurry at all and was concerned about her grandson’s people
skills.
She was actually biased
“Liam is focused on R&D and isn’t good at dealing with these things.”
“When he was young, we only thought about making him outstanding. We forgot to teach him how to talk. He should learn from Celeste She knows when to be strong, when to be soft, and never gives up an inch. She’s quick and ruthless.”
Mr. Robinson said, “Didn’t you just say she was being ridiculous on the way here?”
The old lady glanced at him, “I didn’t say being ridiculous was bad. She has to deal with the Campbell family herself. As long as they have a hold on her, she’ll never be free, and she’ll always be controlled. I just didn’t expect her to make such a big fuss. But it doesn’t matter. At worst, well lose some money, and I’ll get it back from Liam.”
Mr. Robinson thought: You’re pretty optimistic.
“Let’s go,” the old lady said. “I have to play the villain now, or some people won’t be happy.”
When Liam and his party arrived at the company, the shareholder meeting room was already full.
The old lady sat in the main seat, with Clyde on her left.
Everyone’s faces were serious, and the room was silent.
As soon as Angel entered, her legs were so weak that she could barely stand.
She had never seen such a big scene before. Thinking about the impact of today’s incident on Quantum, her face turned pale, not knowing what kind of judgment awaited her.
Her illegitimate daughter’s identity had been exposed, and her carefully built inspirational persona had instantly collapsed. She didn’t even have the courage to open her social media app anymore.
Her career and her identity were all ruined.
“Please, take your seats.”
.
The old lady spoke calmly, and someone at the door helped Angel find a chair.
When everyone was seated, Clyde began, “Wesley, this project is your responsibility. Regardless of the reasons behind this incident, you are accountable for the damage caused the company and the shareholders. You should start by apologizing to everyone.”
The damage was already done, and to quell the shareholders’ anger, at least a clear stance had to be taken. On this point, Clyde had always known how to handle things well.
Wesley was well-behaved too, standing up and bowing sincerely to apologize to everyone, totally different from his unruly and defiant attitude six months ago.
Someone said, “You can’t blame Wesley for everything. It’s his first time handling a project like this, so it’s inevitable that there’d be some oversights. Plus, he didn’t even recruit the speaker, so it’s not fair to make him shoulder all the blame.”
“Now, pointing fingers isn’t going to help. The main thing is to figure out how to deal with this situation.”
“With the evidence right before of us, what else can we do? No matter how you look at it, it all boils down to our company, Quantum, not being strict enough with our hires”
“Actually, there might be a way to deal with it,” the PR manager suddenly chimed in. “Angel is Celeste’s sister. If we announce that she was brought in by Celeste, it could lessen the impact on the company.”
Liam’s face suddenly became gloomy
