Chapter 580 Board Meeting

“Why didn’t you wake me up?” Jennifer grumbled. I had planned to come earlier since there’s so much

to do at the office, but I can’t believe I slept the entire morning away…

“You were sleeping so soundly, and I couldn’t bring myself to wake you. Besides, work is a never-

ending task list. Why push yourself so hard?”

Upon hearing that, Jennifer rolled her eyes. “Yes, work is endless, but if we don’t tackle them as they

come, we might lose many opportunities along the way,” she said before scratching her head in

confusion. “Wait a minute… How did I fall asleep last night?”

All I remember is going to the underground parking after dinner with Donald. Everything else after that

feels like a dreamlike blur…

“You got home, crawled into bed, and fell asleep. How else would you sleep?” Donald muttered, feeling

a twinge of guilt.

Lara does a pretty good job at protecting Jennifer, but she’s horrible at controlling the dosage of the

sleeping drug. My goodness, Jennifer can’t even remember what happened last night!

Just as Jennifer was still in her befuddled state, Jane entered the room with a stack of documents.

“Ms. Wilson, the directors heard that we’ve suspended all seventeen projects and are now waiting in

the conference room. They expect an explanation from you.”

“Huh?” Jennifer exclaimed. “Is there supposed to be a board meeting today? Why don’t I know

anything about it?”

“It was Mr. Antonio Winzark who called for the meeting,” Jane replied sheepishly. “However, according

to our company’s rules, you’d be required to sit in too.”

After all, Dragon Fide Corporation was formed by acquiring and merging several companies, which

meant the board of directors had quite a lot of say in company matters.

When Jennifer turned down Antonio’s bribe, she had already made it obvious she was against him.

She had thought about how the latter might get back at her, but never in her wildest dreams did she

think he’d pick such a crucial juncture to make things difficult for her.

Despite her overwhelming uncertainty, Jennifer followed Jane to the conference room, where all

twenty-three directors were already seated.

Although half of them didn’t wield any real power, the fact remained that their votes played a crucial

role.

As such, the directors never thought too highly of Jennifer and even felt they had more authority than

her.

“My apologies for dragging you here despite your busy schedule, Ms. Wilson,” Antonio remarked

before Jennifer could say anything, making it clear that he was in charge. “However, this meeting is of

the utmost importance as it concerns our company’s future. That’s why I threw it together at the last

minute. I hope you don’t mind, Ms. Wilson.”

Jennifer merely took her seat and shot a glance at Antonio. “What is it? Just speak your mind.”

This time around, another director, Jax Barrera, spoke up instead. “Ms. Wilson, we heard that you

suspended all seventeen of our company’s projects. Is that true?”

“Yes,” Jennifer answered without hesitation. “Those projects failed to meet our company’s design and

construction guidelines, so I pulled the plug on them. Is there a problem with that?”

“There’s no problem suspending the projects if they didn’t meet our guidelines, but is it necessary to

axe all seventeen of them?” Jax retorted before tossing a document folder toward Jennifer.

“Do you know how much your willfulness has cost us? Not only has this demolition burned away forty-

seven million of our initial investment, but it has also delayed the reconstruction of Dragon Fide Villa.

Rebuilding these seventeen projects will require the same amount of time and money we had invested

previously. Our money doesn’t come easy, Ms. Wilson. Don’t you think you should’ve discussed this

with us instead of making your own decision?”
