“Do you have any good suggestions, then?” Madelyn asked, brimming with enthusiasm.
Cyrus was momentarily taken aback. Then, he quickly replied, “I wouldn’t dare overstep. It’s entirely your call. Ms. Thornton.”
“Why are you being difficult? Just speak up since I’ve told you to do so.”
Seeing his frightened expression, Madelyn then couldn’t resist teasing him, “What’s the matter? You think I’m going to eat you or something?
“N–No.” As Cyrus spoke, he grew inexplicably nervous. “I’m just worried that I might say something wrong. leading to you making a wrong decision, Ms. Thornton. I can’t bear that responsibility.”
Upon hearing that. Madelyn couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“No, no… Just speak your mind. Even generals in ancient times had strategists, didn’t they? Feel free to speak. If there’s anything of merit, I’ll definitely adopt it.”
After Madelyn had said that, she laughed with an easygoing grace, appearing unconcerned with the trivialities.
“Ahem…
Cyrus immediately cleared his throat awkwardly.
Since Madelyn had said as much, he couldn’t quite refuse further. Consequently, he could only voice hist thoughts.
“In my opinion, Ms. Thornton, since Sherritt Group is currently selling off their shares copiously, you can seize this opportunity to buy them copiously. By accumulating them in this way, you’ll hold some of the Sherritt family’s shares, not only catching Janessa off guard but also posing a degree of threat to her. Isn’t it the best of both worlds?”
After he had finished speaking, he lowered his head again, reverting to his unassuming demeanor.
Hearing that, Madelyn was elated as if she had heard delightful news.
“Cyrus, you simply too clever!”
In reality, she had the same thought herself. Unexpectedly, Cyrus shared her sentiments,
That essentially means that my idea is indeed viable!
Following that thought, Madelyn immediately perked up and instructed, “Then, I’ll leave this matter in your hands. Help me acquire as many shares of Sherritt Group as possible, okay?”
“No problem, Ms. Thornton.”
Cyrus gave a slightly nod, then left to execute his orders.

limit down? Wouldn’t you lose more than you gain?”
Moreover, the loss would be no small amount.
However, Madelyn laughed.

“Jillian, this is where you’re mistaken. Since I could reduce Sherritt Group to such a state, I certainly have the ability to revive it from the brink of collapse. The reason I did this was simply because I wanted to target Janessa, aiming to drive her out of Sherritt Group completely, ensuring that she couldn’t rise to power. Otherwise, if she were to be in a position of authority in the future, she would pose quite a significant threat
to me.
“Oh, I see.”
Finally, Jillian understood Madelyn’s thoughts. She simply nodded, saying nothing further.
Subsequently, Madelyn wasn’t idle either but made a call to Cheryl.
“Cheryl. I’ve come up with a great plan to deal with Janessa, Madelyn stated with considerable confidence as soon as the call was connected.
Cheryl was initially in low spirits, She promptly perked up. “What’s the plan?”
With a radiant smile, Madelyn proceeded to tell her what she was planning to do.
“Alright, I understand now. Thank you, Ms. Thornton.”
After listening to it all, Cheryl immediately thanked her sincerely.
However, Madelyn immediately stopped her. “Hold on, hold on. Don’t rush to thank me yet. Ousting Janessa from her position won’t be easy. I’ll still need your cooperation.”
“My cooperation? Cheryl was somewhat puzzled. “What can I do?”
Madelyn started, “Cheryl, Sherritt Group is your family’s business at the end of the day, and Janessa inherited it through a will. As an outsider, it wouldn’t be a simple task for me to oust her from her position. So, I need you and your brother to seek out the company’s shareholders and build a relationship with them. Meanwhile, I’ll be acquiring stocks to counterbalance Janessa. Once the timing is right, you can join forces. with the shareholders and oust Janessa from her position directly. What do you think?”
“I get it now!” Cheryl exclaimed after listening to every word spoken by Madelyn.
As understanding dawned upon her, she continued, “Ms. Thornton, I understand what you mean now. I’ll do as you said.”
“Great. Let’s just wait to watch the show, then, Madelyn said, smiling casually.
“Sure!” Cheryl was also beyond exhilarated.
Following that, the two of them hung up the phone, both eagerly anticipating the impending show.
In the afternoon, Janessa went to Ingram Manor, utterly agitated because of the matter concerning the
company.

In the end, her only option was to seek help from her ant.
At that moment, she sat on the couch in a long green dress, voicing her complaints to Rachel.

“Aunt Rachel, what do you think I should do? If I can’t come up with a decent solution, the company’s shareholders will certainly think that Fin incompetent.”
The mere thought of her capabilities being questioned by the company’s shareholders filled Janessa with considerable anxiety and unease.
“Alright, it’s just a trivial issue. Don’t be so down! Don’t solutions only come to mind slowly?” Rachel immediately chided upon seeing her in such a dispirited state then.
Hearing that, Janessa felt utterly helpless.
“Please help me. Aunt Rachel. I truly don’t know what to do anymore. The outside world’s perception of me has reached an unbearable level, and the company’s stock prices have been on a steady decline. What should I do for the company to overcome this crisis? After going to great lengths, I’ve finally reclaimed everything that should’ve belonged to my mother. Is this now my breaking point?”
As she spoke, the more pessimistic she became, feeling as if everything was doomed.
Rachel could understand her niece’s feelings since the situation was indeed somewhat bleak at the moment.
However, there wasn’t a problem that couldn’t be solved.
And so, she said. “Every situation has two sides to it. Nothing’s set in stone yet, so how can you be so sure it’s going to end badly for you?”
Upon hearing that, Janessa was truly perplexed. “What do you mean by that, Aunt Rachel?”
Rachel suddenly chuckled, stroking her head gently.
“Actually, this stock market downturn may not necessarily be a bad thing. Think about it. Would there be so many people selling their stocks at low prices if it weren’t for the drop in stock prices? Were it not for the numerous people selling their shares at such a low price, how could you buy back stocks at such a bargain, allowing you to hold more shares in the company and solidify your position?”
