“Let’s just drop it. There’s no point in continuing this meeting. It’s simply a waste of time.”
Once they had finished speaking, a few of the directors were ready to stand up and leave.
Fortunately, Janessa had mentally prepared herself in advance, so she remained calm and unruffled at this
moment.
“Ladies and gentlemen, why don’t you let me finish? Do you really think that without any support, I would have the audacity to stand here, seeking everyone’s approval?”
As her words fell, Janessa flashed a confident smile. She then proceeded to pull out the documents from the folder, presenting them before all the shareholders.
“What is this?”
“What on earth is this?”
The shareholders looked at the paper with a collective sense of confusion, unsure of what exactly Janessa was presenting to them.
Janessa broke into a smile. “This is actually the will that my father left for me.”
“What?”
“There’s even a will now. Could it really be that the Chairman’s health is failing?”
“Show us the will quickly.”
As he spoke, a few shareholders immediately seized the will and then began to scrutinize it carefully.
Unruffled, Janessa handed them the will, her smile growing increasingly unrestrained.
“Ladies and gentlemen, my father clearly stated in his will that he would transfer thirty percent of his company shares to me. Isn’t this proof enough of how much he valued me?”
Upon hearing these words, the shareholders immediately delved into an in–depth analysis of the will.
Upon discovery, it was found that the content was almost entirely in line with what Janessa had said.
In other words, Janessa did not lie..
Had Rupert truly decided to pass on the inheritance to this illegitimate daughter?
For a moment, everyone shook their heads, unable to believe the truth.
However, the will was laid out in front of everyone, bearing Rupert’s exclusive seal.
At this point, it seemed as if Janessa was truly taking over the company.
Even if everyone was deeply dissatisfied, they could only remain silent.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this was my father’s decision. I hope you can respect his final wishes. Your cooperation in the future would be greatly appreciated.”
Once she finished speaking, Janessa gave the shareholders a deep how. However, there wasn’t a trace of respect in her gesture. On the contrary, she seemed rather smug.
The shareholders all sighed, unable to say anything
further
However, just when everyone had come to accept this as fact, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open
Scarlet burst in, loudly declaring, “I don’t agree
In an instant, all eyes turned in unison, landing on the sight of the Chairman’s wife, disregarding everything else as she rushed in with her daughter, straight to Janessa.
“Janessa, your father is still alive and yet you dare to seize power openly. You truly have some nerve!”
Scarlet roared in anger, her eyes bulging dramatically as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
Behind her, Cheryl and her brother, Caleb, were both glaring at Janessa with faces full of indignation.
Janessa, however, laughed contentedly. “Of course, I know that my father hasn’t passed away yet. But shouldn’t we always prepare for the unforeseen?”
“Fine, even if we had to prepare for this eventually, your father would never choose you!” Scarlet exclaimed in anger once again.
Janessa scoffed. “Why wouldn’t he choose me?”
“My capabilities surpass both Cheryl and Caleb. This is something everyone has witnessed. Dad is choosing someone to inherit the company, not just playing house. He’s certainly looking for someone competent. Besides,” she said, holding up Rupert’s will, “everything is clearly stated here. His final wishes are written in black and white. If you want to argue, take it up with Father, not me. Can we stop wasting our breath on this, please?”
Janessa looked at the mother and her two children standing before her, filled with disdain. She wasn’t t them seriously at all.
In Janessa’s eyes, they were nothing more than mud on the ground, deserving to be trampled upon.

At that moment, Scarlet hurriedly picked up the will with trembling hands. After reading the contents, her eyes nearly bulged with rage.
“Impossible! This can’t be!”
“What’s so impossible about that?” Janessa scoffed.
Scarlet lashed out in anger. “This will is certainly a forgery. It’s fake! You must have wanted to harm your own father, then fabricate a will to seize power. You, you’re so ruthless!”
“Exactly, how could our father possibly pass on the inheritance to you? Stop bluffing around here,” Cheryl also chimed in the argument.

“Me, shameless? Me, showing off?”

Janessa scoffed coldly, she hadn’t expected the three of them to be so stubbornly oblivious.
“Fine then.” Janessa challenged, “if you claim that my will is a forgery, then present your evidence.”
Janessa raised her voice, ensuring that everyone around could hear her clearly. “The will was personally drafted by our father, and it even bears his seall Everyone must know about this seal, right? My father hides it extremely well, so well that an ordinary person could never get their hands on it. How could I possibly forge it? Are you suggesting I have some kind of supernatural abilities?”
“You’re simply unwilling to accept the truth, aren’t you? Fine, if you won’t accept it, then bring forth evidence of my alleged forgery of the will. Don’t just throw baseless accusations around here without any proof!”
Then, Janessa, no longer wanting to deal with the trio, directly addressed the board members. “Thank you all for attending today’s meeting. I’ve said everything that needed to be said. I hope that in the future, you can cooperate with me more in our work. Meeting dismissed!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Janessa, clutching the will, pushed past Scarlet and her two children. She departed in a whirlwind of haste and determination.
Quickly, the directors and shareholders all shook their heads, helplessly withdrawing-
“That wretched woman!” Scarlet exploded in fury from behind, she could hardly restrain herself from tearing Janessa into a thousand pieces.
Seeing her mother on the verge of fury, Cheryl quickly stepped forward to calm her down, “Mom, you need. to cool down.”
“Janessa is right,” they said. “Even if we were certain that the will was fake, we still didn’t have any evidence to prove it”
“Yeah, Mom, let’s just calm down first and think of a solution,” Caleb suggested.
Scarlet was already overwhelmed with a mix of grief and anger, her heart aching deeply. There was no way she could remain calm.
She was seen sitting abruptly on the ground, then repeatedly striking the floor, heedless of the pain. Her face was a mask of agony.
“Oh, heavens above, I implore you to see our plight! Please spare our Sherritt family from this absurd fate. would you?”
