Chapter 278 Not Righteous
Martha frowned and pondered for a while. She figured out that Stefan was about to give it to Rhys,but she didn't know why there was no signature from the beneficiary.
Rhys saw that Martha didn't say anything but stared at the document and couldn't help giving her ahint with his eyes. He wanted her to sign her name on it quickly.
However, Martha looked at her with her eyes full of confusion.
Rhys was speechless. From his perspective, Martha was always smart, and he never expected thatshe would be heavy-headed like this one day.
Finally, Eden beside her understood Rhys' meaning and moved forward, pointing at the equitytransfer agreement.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the agreement that Mr. Harrison gave Martha before."
Martha was startled at his words, but she soon made clear their intentions.
They wanted her to sign her name on the agreement in front of the shareholders and she becamethe beneficiary so that she could own the shares of the Harrison Group and acted as actingpresident of well reason.
Then Giana would stand no chance of vie with her for this position.
Giana in the host's seat knew the significance of the agreement.
Her face turned sullen, and she began to lose her temper and shout, "It's impossible. Stefan will notgive you the shares of the Harrison Group!"
Then she rose to her feet and grabbed the document to read it through.
However, she found the signature did belong to Stefan.novelbin
Martha impassively looked at Giana, who was ill-mannered now and asked in a deliberatelyinterrogative tone, "Giana, Stefan didn't believe in me and hurt me before, thus he gave it to me ascompensation. Is it illogical?"
The shareholders in the conference room were all aware of Hollie's affair, and it was natural forthem to think of her upon hearing Martha's question.
They felt that the compensation was reasonable if it was because of Hollie.
However, Giana failed to reconcile herself to the fact that her nephew would give shares to awoman who was about to divorce him.
Before her nominal aunt responded, Martha quickly picked up a pen and signed the agreement onthe table.
After seeing her name on the agreement, Giana shook her head in shock and screeched on ahigher pitch, "Ridiculous! It's not true!"
"Giana, the agreement has legal effect. It's not up to you to decide."
And an old shareholder said while another one next to him hurriedly echoed.
"It must be true. The company is on the cusp of the controversy, and the most important thing is tostabilize the company's development now."
Their points of view were supported by other shareholders.
Giana lost her words but could only glare at Martha, while Martha seemed to ignore her anger butlooked at the shareholders calmly.
"Currently, we need to pool our effort and get through the hardship of the company. I believe theHarrison Group will resuscitate as long as we work together."
As she finished her speech, all of the shareholders nodded at her and gave their approval.
Martha smiled a light smile and said coolly, "In addition, the doctor just said Stefan may not wake upagain. But I think he will be bound to come back to life."
Several of the old shareholders had watched Stefan grow up since he was a child, and when theyheard Martha say so, they all nodded in agreement.
Naturally, they certainly hoped Stefan would wake up again.
After a while, Eden led the shareholders to vote for Martha and Giana as candidates for the actingCEO of the Harrison Group. In the end, Martha won the election without any suspense.
Meanwhile, Giana was only given the position of assistant.
She glared at Martha discontentedly, but Martha completely ignored her gaze and instructed Edenon what they should do next.
Martha looked at the shareholders present with a serious expression and said succinctly, "Thereason why the stocks of the Harrison Group are plummeting now is that people do not know wehave elected a new president for the company."
"So for today's meeting, Eden, I need you to have the public relations department prepare well andtry to unravel the negative opinions of the Harrison Group."
Eden nodded and replied seriously, "I'll arrange it right away."
After speaking a few more words, Martha got up and left the conference room.
Not long after she left the Harrison Group, she was stopped by Giana in a deserted place.
Giana walked angrily to the driver's door and questioned Martha in a rage, "Did you counterfeit thatequity transfer agreement?"
Upon seeing her true ugliness of human nature, Martha felt stunned at first and then answered herimpassively,
"You're joking. How could I forge it?"
"Then why did Rhys hand it to you? Are you involved in some unspeakable dealings with thatbastard?"
Giana's voice was filled with anger and her words were sharp.
Martha's expression turned cold at her words.
"The agreement was given to him by Stefan. It's none of my business."
"You..."
Giana glared at Martha, feeling enraged but unable to say something to refute.
Martha also stared at her indifferently. After a moment, she said in a callous voice, "Giana, if you'redone with me, please move. You're in my way."
"Martha! How unscrupulous you are! You colluded with Rhys to make me lose my powerthoroughly."
Giana pointed at Martha, wishing to tear her apart with thousands of cuts.
Martha's expression turned serious and she sneered at the woman in front of her, questioningrhetorically, "Is it more righteous to have your daughter use philter on Stefan? Do you think it is agreat trick?"
Their relationship should have deteriorated even further, but Stefan remained a shred of sanitywhich stopped him from forcing himself on her.
Thus, she didn't think Giana had good reasons to make allegations since she could come up withsuch a scheme.
Giana froze and immediately understood what Martha was referring to was the incident of Amandatrying to drug Stefan.
Feeling guilty, Giana lost the confidence to question Martha anymore.
With a mocking glance at Giana, Martha drove her car away.
