Chapter 124 Alfred Is Here

Sienna was seated at Curtis’ usual seat, and Brooklyn was seated next to her. Their intention was

obvious.

When Rayna walked into the conference room, Brooklyn frowned and said, “Rayna, your department has

been set up by the ex-CEO, Mr. Faymon alone, and he did not inform anyone else. You shouldn’t be here

even though you are the manager.”

Brooklyn’s words were different from what Edith had told her when she first went there, but they both

meant the same thing.

And she refers to Curtis as ex-CEO. It looks like they can’t wait to kick Curtis out of the company.

Rayna gave a faint smile before saying, “Yes, you’re right. But, the establishment of my department is

also supervised by the senior management. Ms. Faymon, I’m not sure what you mean when you said

that no one else has been informed. Are you referring to the shareholders or the rest of the vice CEO?

Unless there is a change in the position of the CEO, the shareholders will not interfere with any changes

done in the upper management. As for the duties of the vice CEO, they are to assist the CEO in the

management of the company and respect his decisions.”

Brooklyn’s expression changed drastically when Rayna refuted her. She smiled coldly and said, “You

think you’re clever, don’t you?”

“Enough. Don’t hold it against someone younger than you,” said Sienna softly.

After that, Brooklyn stopped talking.

As far as the shareholders were concerned, Rayna meant nothing to them even though she was Curtis’

aide. Other than Brooklyn, no one else even bothered to cast a glance in her direction.

Very soon, the meeting began. Just as Rayna had guessed, the meeting was regarding Curtis’ accident.

Sienna said, “Curtis is my nephew, and I’m well aware of what he has done for the company. I certainly

didn’t expect him to get into such a serious accident. His legs are badly injured, and he’s still

unconscious.”

Jack also added, “Curtis can take his time to recuperate in the hospital, but Faymon Group cannot wait

for him indefinitely. Just today alone, Faymon Group has lost three billion. Faymon Group needs a leader

immediately.”

The shareholders did not want to see such a thing happening.

The drop in the share prices had affected all of them badly. Within a short period of time, Curtis would not

be able to manage Faymon Group. Hence, they would need to get someone to run the company on his

behalf and control the fall of the share prices.

Outwardly, Sienna appeared gentle and calm. However, the position in which she was seated had made

her intention very clear.

Both Jack and Dexter had been coveting that position for a long time. Thus, there was no way they

would agree to it.

Jack even said, “Ms. Sienna, we know that you want to help out in Faymon Group. But Old Mr. Faymon

has said before that there can only be a maximum of two members of the Faymon family in the Faymon

Group.”

“I will abide by my brother’s rule,” said Sienna. “My nephew is still lying in the hospital, and we have no

idea where he will come around. As of now, only Brooklyn is in Faymon Group.”

Rayna was seated at the end of the table and enjoying the show.

It was only then she realized that some people were far worse than she had imagined when their

personal interests took center stage.

Privately, a few of the shareholders had contacted Sienna. Both parties had come to an agreement.

Therefore, they would naturally take Sienna’s side and support her.

Half of the shareholders were abroad and did not attend the meeting. Obviously, Jack and Dexter were

no match for Sienna.

It was almost certain that Sienna would be in control of Faymon Group.

Rayna knew that she would make a lot of enemies if she spoke up right now. However, she had no other

choice. “Ms. Sienna, there are already three of you in Faymon Group including Ms. Faymon and Mr.

Faymon who is in the hospital.”

Sienna did not expect Rayna to find fault with her at a crucial moment. She was somewhat displeased

but still maintained her composure. “Didn’t I mention just now that Curtis is still unconscious? He’s not in

the condition to manage Faymon Group at the moment.”

“Mr. Faymon may not be in the condition right now, but he hasn’t been dismissed by Faymon Group yet,”

said Rayna calmly. “If you take over this position, you will break the rule of Faymon Group and sully the

reputation of the Faymon family.”

“Rayna!” Brooklyn nearly slammed on the table as she shouted in anger. “Everyone here is either a

shareholder or a vice CEO. You’re only a manager. What makes you think you have the right to speak?”

Rayna was not angry at all. Instead, she asked the shareholders, “All of you have asked for the higher

management to attend this meeting. Yet, we aren’t allowed to talk? Then, what’s the point of asking us to

be here?”

“Ms. Garland is right. Even though Mr. Faymon is still unconscious, he’s still a part of the Faymon

Group.” Jack seized the opportunity and said, “If Ms. Sienna continues to interfere, she will be going

against Old Mr. Faymon’s rules.”

The shareholders were so stressed and dared not utter a word of support for Sienna.

Although Alfred had appointed Curtis to the position, he still held a portion of the shares of Faymon

Group. The total shares that Alfred and Curtis owned were larger than all of the shareholders combined.

Furthermore, Alfred was a man of his word who was firm and decisive. If they really broke his rules,

Alfred would not hesitate to kick them out of the company.

Faymon Group was a lucrative business. Only a fool would throw it away.

Sienna stared coldly at Rayna. Since the first time she met her at the hospital, she had not gotten a

proper look at the young woman. Now was the first time she took Rayna seriously.

She knew that both Jack and Dexter had their people in the secretarial department. In fact, they had a

number of subordinates in Faymon Group. Curtis, on the other hand, did not have many.

Therefore, Sienna did not expect Curtis to have someone as aggressive as Rayna by his side. How dare

a mere manager defy me and embarrass me in front of so many people!

“Ms. Garland, you’re right,” said Sienna with a smile. “Curtis is still part of Faymon Group, so naturally, I

cannot be the CEO. Otherwise, I’ll be breaking the rules of Faymon Group.”

The elderly woman then stood up and said sternly, “But, as a subordinate, you have gone against your

superiors and interfered with the shareholders’ decision. As such, I’m going to fire you!”

Rayna had expected Sienna to fly into a rage, but she did not expect her to say such a thing. With a calm

demeanor, Rayna retorted, “Ms. Sienna, you don’t work for Faymon Group. Therefore, you have no right

to dismiss me.”

Sienna turned her attention to Jack and asked, “Mr. Saunders, are you sure you want to keep someone

unruly like her?”

Rayna looked grim.

Her department might have been established by Curtis himself, but he was in the hospital right now. If

Sienna was out of the picture, then only Jack and Dexter would be qualified enough to be the next CEO.

Any one of the men would have the authority to fire her.

Jack would certainly not let that opportunity slip out of his hands. Instead, he looked as if he was being

put in a difficult position. “Ms. Garland is very adept in her work. But, it’s indeed taboo to defy your

superiors.”

There was a hint of despise in the gentle way Sienna eyed Rayna. It was as if she was reminding Rayna

that she was a nobody who did not have the right to go against her.

Rayna began to panic, so she clenched her fists hard to calm herself down and started to think of a

solution.

After more than ten seconds, she was sweating profusely.

Just as Rayna exhaled and was about to say something, the door of the conference room opened. In

came Jasmine with an elderly man holding onto her arm.

“What meeting is this? There’re so many people here.”

Rayna turned around when she heard the familiar voice. She then realized that it was the same Mister

who had helped her out when the store assistant made things difficult for her. He was also the same man

who accompanied her for a stew!

All the shareholders stood up and greeted the elderly man, “Old Mr. Faymon.”

Even Sienna went over and helped Alfred to his seat after dismissing Jasmine. “Alfred, you have yet to

recover. What are you doing here?”

“The doctor told me to get some exercise. Otherwise, my body will become stiff.” Alfred placed his cane

on one side before continuing, “I heard that the shares of Faymon Group have been dropping so

drastically. That’s why I have come over to take a look.”
