The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 586

With that said, Hackett ignored Fitch and walked away.

Fitch stood there, watching Hackett's retreating figure, a barely perceptible smirk playing on his lips.

Although Hackett had previously discussed it with his son and suspected the Sherwoods were plotting something, Fitch’s every move had been flawless, leaving no room for criticism.

Once the board meeting officially began, Fitch was incredibly cooperative throughout. He even proactively proposed several suggestions beneficial to the Sloan Group's development, maintaining a humble demeanor without any aggressive posturing.

However, when the CFO reported on the equity structure, Hackett's expression drastically changed. Fitch held a massive amount of Sloan Group stock options, making his stake the second-largest, just behind Hackett himself!

Hackett's head snapped up, shooting a piercing glare at Fitch. He was the mysterious venture capital firm!

Fitch maintained his smile, seemingly oblivious to Hackett's shock.

Realizing that Fitch had stealthily become the second-largest shareholder of the Sloan Group under his nose, Hackett felt a rare surge of vigilance.

During the meeting's intermission, Hackett directly intercepted Fitch.

"Fitch, what is the meaning of this?" Hackett asked, his face unable to conceal his fury. "Since when did the Sherwood family become the Sloan Group's second-largest shareholder? Did you start that company that's been constantly working against the Sloan Group?"

Fitch looked composed, even carrying a hint of helplessness. "Hackett, what are you doing? Equity trading is open and transparent. It's merely market behavior."
