"Stephen, all that will be realized." Reba gnashed her teeth. "But it may be


    dyed for a while. Catherine Jones suddenly appeared in today''s shareholders'' meeting. She''s now... the new chairwoman..."


    "What?" Stephen yelled. "Didn''t you say that you''re 90 % sure your dad will be chairman? What are you and your father doing? You can''t even handle Catherine Jones."


    Reba''s face felt hot as she said unpleasantly, "How would we know that she would team up with Chris Jefferson? We were also caught off guard."


    "Well, I even went around saying that my girlfriend is the daughter of Hudson''s chairman. What a disgrace.


    "...I don''t want this anymore."


    Reba''s voice choked. "Stephen, what do you mean by that? Do you hate me now because my dad didn''t get the position of chairman?" 2


    Stephen suddenly snapped back to his senses. Even if Reba was not the daughter of Hudson''s chairman, a year of dividends was much better than the riches outside. He hurriedlyughed and said, "Of course not, don''t overthink it. I''m just outraged by the injustice done to you. I like you, not your identity." 1


    "Don''t worry. This is only temporary. Catherine won''t sit in the position of chairwoman for long," Reba said viciously.


    "You''re right. It''s not easy to stabilize that position." Stephen also smiled grimly. "I''ll spare no effort to help you."


    "Thank you."


    12:20 pm.


    The meeting ended.


    One by one, the shareholders shook hands with her and left politely.


    "Chairman Jones, I''ll take you to your office." The chairwoman''s assistant, Kacey Lane, came up to Catherine with a wide stride. She was behaving diligently. "Okay, take me there."


    She had just stood up when Jeffery blocked her path. His expression was gloomy and terrifying. "B*tch, you must be proud of yourself. You managed to sit in that seat, but that doesn''t mean your position is stable-"


    p!


    Catherine raised her hand and unceremoniously pped him.


    Jeffery never expected her to get physical. He was caught off guard and was hit squarely.


    When he finally reacted, he bared his teeth in anger and rushed at her to teach her a lesson.


    However, Elie stood in front of Catherine and kicked Jeffery, sending him flying several meters to the ground. He was unable to get up for a long time because of the pain.


    "You... You ungrateful girl! How dare you hit an elder? You''ll suffer the wrath of God. There''ll be retribution!" Jeffery roared furiously.


    "You called me a b*tch, so as your superior, it''s only natural that I teach you a lesson."


    Catherine blew on her sore palm. "What''s more, haven''t you and your wife pped me plenty of times before? I didn''t hit you half as hard as you used to hit w-H me.


    "So what if we hit you? We raised you. You owe us a great debt of gratitude for raising you," Jeffery said rightfully.


    Catherine''s bright eyes turned a little cold. "How did you raise me? Did you help me when I was studying? When I caught a cold, it was grandpa and grandma who apanied me. As for the living expenses you paid, my grandparents used hundreds of billions worth in shares topensate you, yet you''re not satisfied?"


    Jeffery''s anger caused his throat to get stuck.


    Catherine stepped forward and looked down at him from above. "That''s fine enough, but you even had your own biological mother killed. Are you even human?"
