Chapter 516 They all thought it was an absurd and comical proposal , wondering how Andrew could even say those words with a straight face .
Everyone in the room had braced themselves for Andrews lack of professionalism , but they had not expected anything this outrageous .
Suggesting the companys CEO should guard the main entrance ? Recommending the head of the Pharmaceutical Division be reassigned to manage the warehouse ? It was the kind of logic that could only come from a genius with a truly unique imagination .
Troy was the first to snap , standing up and shouting , I object ! Object ! I object too ! Unconditionally object ! This is outrageous ! Not a single executive supported Andrew .
They all glared at him , their voices raised in protest , their faces red with indignation .
Andrew shrugged nonchalantly .
Well , since everyone objects , lets just pretend I never said it .
Michael , still seething , sneered .
Mr.
Lloyd , the companys meeting room is a place for discussing serious matters and high level collaborations not your personal stage or a playground for fools .
If you have nothing constructive to say in the future , I suggest you stay quiet ! Andrew smirked and replied , But wasnt it you and Mr.
MacAfee who insisted I share my thoughts ? Or are you saying that as the fifth largest shareholder of this company , Im not allowed to speak freely ? You- Troy pointed an accusing finger at Andrew , his face alternating between pale and livid .
He looked like he might explode , his anger simmering just below the surface .
Just then , a sultry , mocking laugh interrupted the tension .
Well , this is quite a spectacle .
I never thought Id witness such an entertaining show at one of Jayrodales top corporations .
The speaker was a glamorous woman in a red slit dress with cascading waves of hair .
Sitting next to Troy , she threw Andrew a disdainful glance , her words dripping with 1/2 Chapter 516 sarcasm and ridicule .
+25 BONUS Laurens smile turned icy .
Ms.
Dickinson , what a surprise .
How was your time behind bars ? I hope the meals were to your taste .
If not , I can arrange for you to have a few more years to savor them .
The woman in the red dress was none other than Ruby Dickinson , whom Andrew had seen on the street the previous day .
She smirked at Lauren , her tone sharp .
