Chapter 1404
Bryant Group. Else, Marina would have to resign from the CEO position and compensate us for the losses!”
Importance Of Marco
Following Jefferson’s speech, the shareholders wasted no time in joining the cause.
“That’s right, madam. The decline in the Bryant
Group’s stock price has had the biggest impact on us, the shareholders.
While your family may be wealthy enough to withstand it, you cannot just disregard our situation.”
“Exactly, you have to provide an explanation today!”

Instantly, the meeting grew chaotic as everyone began demanding answers.
Liza’s face darkened as she observed the increasing tensions in the room. Sick of the noise, she finally raised her head and shot a cold glare at everyone. Instantly, the voices began to die down.
Liza spoke when it was finally quiet.
“I will provide answers as soon as I can. However, the meeting is adjourned for now.”
Jefferson scoffed in defiance and was about to speak again, but Liza shot him a sharp glance, and her bodyguards stepped forward menacingly, glaring at him as well. The other disgruntled shareholders kept their mouths shut when they saw this. Jefferson then stormed out of the room after a disdainful snort, and almost immediately, the rest of the shareholders followed after him.
Liza sat with her head bent in the office chair, feeling a sense of powerlessness she had not felt in ages. With a heavy sigh, she massaged her temples. She looked visibly exhausted and felt a deep migraine coming on.
She found herself reminiscing about the time when she had insisted the idea of Marco stepping up as CEO. He had never left her feeling as mentally drained as she felt at this moment. On the contrary, the boy always easily took control of every situation, making it possible for her to retire easily and begin to enjoy her later years in peace. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
The Bryant Group, under Marco’s leadership, had rarely ever encountered any setbacks. This made her believe that things would still continue to run smoothly under Marina’s leadership as well. After all, Marco and
Marina had both been raised by the Bryant family. They were to be equally capable, logically speaking.
However, with Marco gone, a bunch of devious individuals sprung out of the shadows. Now Liza finally realized Marco’s presence was the only reason the Bryant Group had remained stable, and she was able to get into a peaceful Life.
His undeniable abilities were what had kept them afloat all this while.
Unfortunately, the Bryant family had acted rashly, causing chaos. At the moment, only Marco was capable enough to return the company to its former glory.
Liza was getting old. She no longer had the stamina and courage to handle such matters. And as for Marina… Liza’s migraine intensified.
If not for the silly girl, the Bryant Group wouldn’t have been thrown into so much chaos! She had to make a decision to keep the company alive.
Liza was a decisive woman. Her gaze hardened as she finally said, “We have to find a way to reach out to Marco and get him to return to the company to temporarily assume the CEO position.”
Marina had already been feeling smug about how Liza pressurized the shareholders. However, when she heard Liza’s words now, her smugness faded and her eyes widened in shock. She protested immediately, “Have you lost your mind, grandmother? Marco is a lowly bastard! Why would you want him to return? I am the Bryant Group’s CEO, not him! You drove him away yourself, why do you keep thinking of him?”
