Chapter 724 The Judgment Day
“Is that so?” Lincoln raised an eyebrow, clasping her delicate wrist and pulling her into his embrace. In one smooth
motion, he flipped her over and pressed her beneath him. Zayla was flustered, but her hands were powerless to
break free, firmly held by him. “Lincoln… Lincoln…” “Silence speaks louder.”
” Finally, Zayla gave in and left a comment on her post.
[The jet ski doesn’t come with a handsome guy service, but my boyfriend does.] Soon, the comments flooded in
response to her comment. [Boyfriend? So that’s your boyfriend! He’s so handsome.]
[So handsome! And he knows how to ride a jet ski?] Out of ten comments, nine praised his good looks. Only one
was different.
That comment came from Linda. It wasn’t easy, hahaha! Congratulations on making it official! Cheers!] Upon
seeing this comment, Zayla burst into laughter.
Tonight, Lincoln was in a great mood. To make her admit her identity, he would start with her Timeline. Zayla looked
at him, a faint smile lingering at the corners of her mouth, never fading away. She never expected him to be so
easily appeased, Late at night, she nestled in his arms, shifting her body to find the most comfortable position, and
drifted into a deep sleep. Meanwhile, in Harper at Bridgeland Villa. Stephen sat in the room, looking at Zayla’s latest
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTimeline post. That unified response, although it stung his eyes, also brought forth his sincerest blessings.
A stack of documents lay beside hirn, representing the benefits he had secured for Brendis over the years in the
Vargas Group The paper shredder beside him was clearly turned on, but he hesitated to feed those documents into
the machine.
There was no need anymore. His fist clenched tightly. Tomorrow, it would be his personal judgment day.
The next morning, as the sun rose, Stephen had not slept a wink. At exactly nine o’clock, he entered the company
as usual.
The group shareholders had already gathered, and Kylian took the opportunity while Theodore was away from
Harper to convene this group of people.
When it came to money, they always had a united front. Anyone who dared to touch their interests would pay the
price. Moreover, they had never been fond of Stephen, the “illegitimate child”!
The Vargas Group valued its reputation, and a family like the Vargas family valued their dignity even more!
Opposing the appointment of an illegitimate child as the CEO of the group, someone who would be in charge right
from the start, had been the constant resistance of these stubborn old shareholders!
However, they couldn’t deny Stephen’s exceptional abilities, nor could they ignore Theodore’s defiance of public
opinion in pushing him into this position!
Over the years, Stephen had performed exceptionally well, and the Vargás Group had continued to thrive without
any hiccups. Apart from their sarcastic remarks and occasional provocations, they couldn’t do much.
But now, the situation had changed. They held concrete evidence in their hands!
Evidence that was clear and irrefutable, leaving no room for denial!
With such confidence, they had to seize the opportunity!
Stephen arrived at the company and was promptly “summoned” into the boardroom.
The shareholders came in with great momentum, and the employees sensed that something was amiss, engaging
in hushed discussions behind the scenes.
“What on earth is happening? Didn’t you have a good relationship with the secretary’s office? Did you find out
anything?”
“I asked, but even they have no idea what’s going on. They came to work early and found that the shareholders
had already gathered on the top floor. “While we don’t know the exact details, one thing is certain: it’s definitely
related to Mr. Stephen Vargas.” “Do you think they’re planning to replace someone?” “Shh! Don’t jinx it! I’ye only
been in this job for half a year, and I’ve barely seen him a few times. He’s so handsome, I want to enjoy the view!”
“That’s not the point. The point is, ever since Stephen took charge, our benefits have improved compared to
before.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah, who doesn’t love money? Who doesn’t love benefits?” At this moment, over 90% of the employees hoped
that Stephen wouldn’t make any mistakes.
However, these shareholders were not to be underestimated! Even if he didn’t lose his life, they would surely strip
him of everything he had! Bang! The door of the meeting room closed. Snapped!
A stack of documents landed in front of Stephen “What else do you have to say?” Kylian Swan stared at Stephen,
clearly displeased.
Upon seeing these items, Stephen wasn’t surprised, as he had heard whispers of this ever since his return to
Harper. He knew that this day would come; it was only a matter of time. “I have nothing to say.”
Stephen replied calmly. In the face of irrefutable evidence, denial would be futile. Kylian snorted in anger and
slammed the table! “You, Stephen! You ungrateful opportunist!” The other shareholders chimed in as well.
“Who would have thought he would do such a thing…” “I’ve been telling the chairman for a long time that we
shouldn’t trust a bastard child, but the chairman wouldn’t listen!”
“I specifically mentioned that the bastard child harbored some resentment towards Chairman Mu. Now that he’s in
power, who knows what trouble he might stir up. But it seems my warning fell on deaf ears.”
“Yes, look at how things have escalated now… I used to have high hopes for Stephen, but now I see that I was
wrong.”
In the face of the shareholders’ criticism, Stephen had nothing to say and no argument to make. He had indeed
worked for Brendis, regardless of his underlying motives. What he didn’t understand was…
