Chapter 75: Chapter 75
"What does this mean Ilena? Are you planning to go out because you know she's coming?" Leo shouted who was now standing from his seat and looking at Ilena.
Ilena's hand began to tremble and looked around men inside the big room started to gossip like little girls who was butt hurt.
"What is going on? I thought it was over?"
"What if this girl is not a fraud? Based on Ilena's reaction?"
Ilena looked around and said, "If you can fool Mr. Jeric here,.Well, you can't fool me!"
Violet scoffed and said, "I'm not fooling you. You're fooling yourself."
Violet looked at Jeric and nodded her head then, Jeric began to open her suitcase, and he took out a paper that made everyone freeze, even Ilena stopped in her tracks and looked at Jeric standing in front of the powerful man she knew.
Jeric took a deep breath and said, "This is the Late CEO's last will that he signed in front of his daughter, Violet Lennox, that day before he was shot in front of the house of Madam. Emelda Hope Dawnson."
Ilena looked at Violet who was her back facing her and decided to take a few steps backward when Ilena saw what Jeric showed in front of the people inside.
Ilena felt she left the earth as the air left her lungs, and it was as if something was blocking her throat.
"It stated that everything he will leave before he dies will be left to his one and only family which is Violet Lennox." Jeric walked on the left side while saying. "That means Violet Lennox will be the new CEO of United Program for having the biggest share in this company."
Everyone gasped, and Violet smirked while looking at them. While on the road, Jeric informed Violet that there were a few shareholders that would side with Ilena no matter what happened, so Jeric immediately made a way, which Violet immediately liked.
Ilena's trembling voice shouted, "That can't be Jeric! Midzy and I are his families, n-not that g-girl! Also, why are you like this? You're just Daniel's secretary!"
After those words left Ilena's mouth, she looked at Violet who looked at ease and was immune to any words from her.
"This can't be happening!" Ilena thought to herself.
Jeric smiled and said, "You're so focused on your goal, you no longer realize who I am, but some people inside this room knew who I am and were faithful to the Late CEO even though he is gone."
"So, for your little knowledge, yes!" Jeric said, with a smirk, and added, "I'm the Lennox family's Attorney. Attorney Jonathan Honteveros, nice meeting you all!"
Everyone murmured and was too stunned to speak as Violet continued to walk upfront with a smile on her face, and said, "Hello, I'm the new CEO of the United Program."
The room was silent.
Dion looked at Ilena and mouthed, "Do something!"
Ilena looked at them, and out of nowhere, she started laughing. "Hahahahaha, how are you so sure that that piece of paper wasn't a fake like you?"
"You did nothing but bring shame to Daniel's name! Getting yourself rap---" Ilena didn't have the chance to utter the last word when she felt someone grab her, and her hand was handicapped by the police who had just arrived.
The people inside stood up in shock at the sudden event. Violet stepped forward and whispered, "Please enjoy your mother and daughter bonding. It might be the last one before it's too late" Violet smirked her lips while biting her lips to stop the uncontrollable smile.
Ilena's eyes widen as she was struggling while saying, "Why are you arresting me? Do you have a warrant to do this to me?"
The police on the side flashed the letter he was holding and said, "You have been arrested for trespassing a property that you're not registered to live in."
"You still have the power to get yourself your lawyer."
Ilena looked at Violet with fear in her eyes, and couldn't find the word to say as she was dragged out.
"This is crazy! Let me go!" Ilena's words could be heard, but Violet couldn't care anymore.
Violet looked at the gentleman in front of her and said, "I know you have questions and second the motion.."
Violet had not finished her words when suddenly a man standing now spoke with cold sweat on his forehead by saying, "I want to pull out my shares. I don't know what you will do with my money!"
"I won't entrust them with someone that's not knowledgeable!"
Some of the shareholders agreed, and Violet caught everyone that was with the man, Violet pinned her hand on the oval-shaped meeting table while saying, "Sorry to break it up to you Mr. Bald guy, but like your hair, you weren't going to get your money back."
"What are you saying bitch! Those were my money!" The man said furiously ready, to throw a fit at Violet who was now surrounded by guards when they saw the man approach
"Do you think everyone here turned blind to your schemes? You've been stealing my father's money ever since Ilena entered this world."
"What are you talking about you, wrench! You know nothing!"
"Hahahaha!"
The four of them looked at each other with worriedness, and Violet added, "Yes, I don't. But I'm sure you're co-shareholders do. So, here's the word for you since you decided to call me names. I, myself, will pull you out of this company without a share take with you." Violet said and threw a folder in front of them.
Ion opened the folder hurriedly and trembled at what he saw. "So, it's been clear that most of the board saw you stealing money from the company, you're not blind enough not to see who signed there," Violet said.
They all trembled but on the other side of the table were all calmed down, as their faces turned ease.
They were the only ones who didn't find a voice while Ilena was in charge of the company.
With a word said by Violet, the four wore held by the security, and then, the door opened with four presentable people entering the door.
Jeric smiled from ear to ear and said, "Just in time, to replace them. Have a seat or, would you prepare to change these chairs as they were being stained?"
The four men who were being dragged out were shocked, and Ion said, "Mr. Dawnson! What is the meaning of this? You wouldn't dare!"
Liam walked past them as if he didn't hear anything those men said and said to Jeric, "You don't have to change them. I will be the one who'll remove this stain that they placed on this sacred chair."
Everyone was stunned by all of the commotions, but Violet couldn't contain her heartbreak as their eyes met, "It's been a while, Mr. Dawnson."
