After all, this was something only Alyssa, the future heiress of KS Group and daughter of the Taylor family, was entitled to do.
The atmosphere in the room wasn't the best right now. The directors were continually grumbling and discussing amongstthemselves.
These directors were prominent figures in Belbanks' business world who owned shares in KS Group. All of them had knownWinston for more than two decades. They obeyed and followed Winston's directions without complaint solely because he couldhelp them ear a lot of money.
But what about Alyssa? As much as Winston doted on her, she was still an immature young woman. If anyone were to rise fromthe Taylor family, it had to be Jonah, who was the CEO of the company. So why was Alyssa rising to the occasion?
Sean had rushed over to Alyssa's side at her beck and call the instant he got wind of what transpired at the company. The twostood side by side as if returning to their old dynamic duo.
Alyssa sat at the head of the conference table, coldly observing all the old men around the table.
Sean angrily ground his teeth when he saw how disrespectful the directors were being toward Alyssa. "Ms. Alyssa, these oldquacks are so annoying!"
Alyssa's eyes darkened before she said loudly, "Could | have a moment to speak?"
The directors continued bickering amongst themselves, ignoring her.
Alyssa's patience was already thin, given how worried she was for her father's illness. This was the last straw.She raised her hand and heavily slammed it thrice on the conference desk.
All the directors jolted in shock at the loud noise.
"What is the meaning of this, Ms. Alyssa? Why did you call us here?"
"Yeah. We're very busy men with things to do!"
“And what happened with Mr. Taylor's illness? Hadn't he recovered already? It seemed like he was only getting worse. Is he ableto manage the company if this continues?"
"Mr. Taylor even..."Wet himself.Fury consumed Alyssa as her heart ached.
Still, she maintained a cold, calm expression. "You've all been my father's close friends for several decades, helping him usherthe company through thick and thin to make it what it is today.
"I'm sure your concerns stem from worry for my father and the company. | can sympathize entirely with this, and this is also while| have gathered you all here today."
Alyssa might be a woman, but she held an impressive and domineering presence. Her grace and strength surpassed even morethan ten men combined.
The directors immediately quietened down, giving Alyssa temporary control of the situation.
"I'm sure all of you know just howimportant KS Group is to my father.His every movement, iagluding mSs thiqgcaaistdl as a headache,can affect the company's marketvalue and reputation.

The room was dead silent. Alyssa's words could not be clearer. It was an implied warning to certain unsatisfied parties.
"We understand what you're trying tosay, Ms. Alyssa. We're concerned for
both Mr. Taylor an heornmaniy’sbene terete ay we'd doanything to harm the company. We'dbe jeopardizing ourselves in thatcase!" one of the directors piped upto ease the tension. The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!
Everyone else affirmed the sentiment.
"Yes, | know none of you would ever do that," Alyssa said, leaning forward and crossing her fingers together. "But | amabusinessman, just like my father. We judge by actions, not words."
Alyssa then shot Sean a look.
