Chapter 1355
‘Ackland, as the majority shareholder, can I start auditing the accounts now?” Rosalynn glared at him, asking slowly.
Ackland’s forehead began to sweat. He struggled to answer, “I’ll admit, I made a few missteps in decision–making last year, causing some losses for the company. But I promise you, this year, our division will see substantial growth!”
“Do you guys have any idea how much damage Ackland’s ‘minor mistakes‘ actually caused?” Rosalynn stopped looking at Ackland, her gaze sweeping across everyone in the room. No one dared to speak
Rosalynn didn’t care, casually dropping a number: “600 million.”
Some faces in the conference room started to pale.
“Although for Bane Corporation’s annual profits, this number is a drop in the bucket. But if we were a smaller enterprise, 600 million would’ve been enough to make us rich or break us.” Rosalynn turned to Ackland again, “Ackland, which do you think you are? A big winner or a big loser?”
Ackland was taken aback, ‘Ms. Tesdal, I don’t understand what you mean.”
“Let me spell it out for you, it’s not rocket science.”
At her words, Lola quickly projected some documents on the screen.
Ackland took one look and his face turned ashen.
“It seems that your blunders led to the company’s losses, but in reality, you’ve been playing dirty and funneled all that money to your illegitimate son’s overseas account.” Rosalynn tapped the table lightly, her voice icy cold.
“That’s not true, someone’s setting me up!” Ackland jumped to his feet.
Rosalynn didn’t change her expression, her tapping stopped, Really? Isn’t the kid my bodyguards found abroad your illegitimate son?”
It was as if Ackland’s blood had turned to ice.
“What… What did you do?” His voice shook terribly.
“Calm down, Ackland. I’m a legit businesswoman. I was simply checking my husband’s business accounts, found some irregularities and traced the missing funds. It’s all above board.” Rosalynn shrugged, “Are you afraid I’d do something to the kid in a fit of rage?
Ackland’s face turned deathly pale.
To him, Rosalynn’s words were nothing short of a threat..
Farrar, the clueless one, only added fuel to the fire.
“Ms. Tesdal, his family is innocent. Are you kidnapping the kid to blackmail him?”
“Shut up!” Ackland wished Farrar would just disappear.
Farrar recoiled, slowly realizing he had put his foot in his mouth.
“Ms. Tesdal, can we talk in private?” Ackland’s face was stiff.
Begging Rosalynn for mercy in front of so many shareholders was humiliating.
Earlier, he was confidently saying that Mrs. Silverman might be leaving the company with a broken heart today.
Now, he felt that the one who might be leaving the company heartbroken was likely to be him.
“There’s nothing to discuss. All I’ve seen are last year’s accounts. I’m sure with your skills, this isn’t your first rodeo.“Rosalynn’s tone was frosty, President Silverman probably knew, but he didn’t do anything because of Wallace. If it weren’t for your audacity today, aiming at my husband’s company and trying to boot me out of Bane Corporation, I wouldn’t have made a move Ackland, don’t get too greedy. What goes around, comes around.”
