It was a call from Elijah. The second Stefan picked up, he asked urgently, “Where are you, Mr. Hunt?It’s the annual shareholder meeting today. You need to be here-all the shareholders and executives arewaiting for you!”
“Today?” Stefan frowned and finally remembered. Hunt Enterprise would hold an annual shareholdermeeting at the end of the year. It was an important event as it would decide the company’s directionand division of profits, and generally, the executives would prepare for it two weeks in advance. As thepresident of Hunt Enterprise, Stefan would decide the future direction of the company and would alsobe responsible for the annual operational status of the company. However, instead of showing hiscommitment, he was nowhere to be seen half an hour into the meeting, and the shareholders andexecutives were not happy.
Elijah had called Stefan several times, and had finally gotten through to him. “Did you forget about it?You moved the date to today because you said you wanted to settle the company’s issues early, andeveryone adjusted their schedules last minute to be here but… you’re late, and you didn’t pick up calls.These people are constantly questioning me, and I’m about to lose my mind.” Elijah sounded like hewas on the verge of tears. He knew that Stefan was trying to reconcile with Renee, so he didn’t want toremind him, thinking he would be sensible and attend the meeting on time. Unexpectedly, he hadoverestimated Stefan’s selfcontrol once Renee was around…
“I’m busy today. Tell them to postpone the meeting,” Stefan ordered. It was the weekend, and he hadpromised to take the children out for some fun. Besides, he felt like he and Renee were close to gettingback together, so he couldn’t bear to leave now.
“No, Mr. Hunt. Can’t you reschedule whatever you’re doing? You can’t ask this many shareholders toreschedule. Isn’t it too… dictatorial?” Elijah ventured desperately. Stefan had wanted to have the
meeting on the weekend, but now he wanted to reschedule it.
“I want to go horse-riding and swimming with the kids, and I’ve got to be with Renee. I’m very busy, soI’ll hang up now,” Stefan spoke solemnly and was about to hang up.
However, Renee clumsily made her way over to him and took his phone, speaking to Elijah, “Tell theshareholders that there’s a traffic jam, and Mr. Hunt will be there soon.” After that, she hung up.
Confused, Stefan looked at Renee. “Dear… don’t you want me to be with you and the kids?”
“Now is your time to work hard instead of wasting time at home. You need to strengthen the position ofthe Hunt family in The Great Eight. You and I know very well that the Hunt family has faced a lot ofhardships, so you can’t be careless now.” Renee tried to persuade him.novelbin
“I don’t care about the hardships. I lost what was important to me back then for the sake of all theseshallow things, and I don’t want to make the wrong choice again,” Stefan protested childishly. In thepast, he had worked with Seraphina for the company, but it had ruined his relationship with Renee. Hehad also agreed to Seraphina’s demands because he didn’t want her to use that video to hurt Renee,but he also had been selfish back then. Now, he just wanted happy days with his family.
“It’s not that simple. You’re in the business industry, so you can’t act willfully. Think about theconsequences if your family loses power, or if other people control them. Your family might suffer thesame fate as my family, and I… I don’t want to see that happen again.”
