Who does he think he is, having everyone wait for him? Frank thought angrily. "We are not waiting. Let's start the meeting." He said sternly.

As he was about to start, the door was pushed open and in walked Richard, followed by a young and beautiful girl in a beige color dress.

​​

The shareholders took a look at Frank, then the girl, and were not sure what to think of it. When Frank saw the girl's face, he turned furious, "Richard, what the hell did you bring her here for?"

"For the meeting, of course," Richard replied with a confident smile. Then he looked around and said to everyone, "Here, let me introduce Nathalia Carter, the second-biggest shareholder in our company. I guess you still remember her."

Nathalia had put on a bit of makeup today. Her hair flowed down her shoulders, a pair of diamond-studded earrings sparkling subtly through her hair. She looked beautiful and elegant.

"A pleasure and an honor to meet everyone," Nathalia said politely with confidence and elegance.

For sure, the shareholders remembered Nathalia, and they remembered her very well. They had seen how maturely and gracefully Nathalia behaved. Also, they were all aware that Nathalia had the support of Spencer Davidson, whom they would not like to displease.

Everyone greeted her politely and respectfully.

Frank didn't enjoy the scene at all. He glared at Nathalia and thought, you, little devil, how dare you invite yourself in.

A female shareholder in her thirties suddenly questioned without hesitation, "Miss Nathalia Carter, what about the personal issue between you and Mr. Carter? Have you come to an agreement? I don't want whatever is between you two to affect the company's business."

It was exactly what the shareholders all cared about the most. The stock price had dropped tremendously due to what happened between the Carter father and daughter.

"I agree. Miss Nathalia Carter, can you please let us know the situation."

Nathalia took a good glance at her, and a smile appeared on her face. She looked around at everyone and said, "The benefit of the company and the shareholders is my priority."

The shareholders felt a sudden relief. It was what they were hoping.

"However," Nathalia paused for a few seconds and then continued, engaging a serious tone, "If anyone plays games behind my back, I will treat them the way worse than they treat me."

It was a reminder and a warning.

She would be responsible and take the company as the priority, but she would not allow herself to be taken advantage of.

The shareholders had got to know Nathalia quite well from what she did. Someone that could sue her father and won the case must be someone that had courage and strength.

Frank glared at Nathalia icily, "What do you mean by that?"

Nathalia lifted her eyebrows and said casually, "Father, as long as there are no more kidnapping, threats, and your pretentious loving father acting, I will leave you be. Though I would like to remind you that you should be clear of the priority of the company." Calm and sensible.

His face red with anger, Frank wished he could just slap Nathalia on her face right there and then, but he managed to hold his anger. His reputation was already challenged, and he didn't want to make it worse. The last thing he wanted was the shareholders working together to get rid of him.

The female shareholder, Maria Lawrence, suddenly slapped her palm on the table and yelled, "Nathalia Carter, how could you say such things to your father? Disrespectful. You are not welcomed to the board."

Maria Lawrence had won a lot of support from her male colleagues due to her beauty, though she got married recently and had been showing off less.

Nathalia wasn't irritated, and instead, she smiled at Maria's comment. "Mrs. Lawrence, when have you learned what respect means? If I remember correctly, you have been crawling onto Mr. Frank Carter's bed every night and got rid of your brother to get the 1% company share."

Bang! Everyone stared at Maria and Frank, shocked. What the hell? I didn't expect they were having an affair.

Everyone knew that Frank Carter loved his wife, and though everyone knew that Maria had had numerous men before she got married, no one had heard about Frank and Maria.

Maria's face turned pale. She was completely shocked. How the hell did she find out?

With her finger pointing at Nathalia, she snapped, "Bullshit! Don't make things up! Liar."

Frank was actually panicking. What else does she know? He thought worriedly.

Nathalia stood there elegantly, she gently flipped her hair behind her ears, smiled a bright smile, and said, "Don't get too excited, but on the 13th last month, I bet you two had a great night at The Grand Hotel of Miami."

Men would always be men. The more women, the merrier. Especially for those that had fame and fortune, women would just gather around them.

It wasn't anything uncommon for men in their social circle, but Frank and Ann had been boasting their loving relationship and earned themselves the title of the famous loving couple in town. Now, again, Frank had shocked the crowd.

That's very specific. She knows the date and venue. Sounds genuine to me.

My god. What else has he done? Pretending to be a gentleman in front of people and doing these shits in secret.

What a pretentious dick! It's alright that he loves women, but don't pretend to be a loyal husband.

Maria Lawrence! I thought she had changed since she got married. What the hell!

Maria's jaw dropped, her eyes wide open. "No... no, it's not true..." she said feebly.

Slowly Nathalia took out an MP5 from her bag, "Would anyone like to take a look at the evidence? I've got the video here." She looked into Maria's eyes as she announced.

Instantly, Maria collapsed into the chair, her face as pale as a ghost.

She had worked hard to secure herself a husband of fortune. I can't let her ruin everything. She thought anxiously.

Frank retorted furiously, "Nathalia, don't you dare!"
