Chapter 296

Clearing her throat, Irene said, “You see, I’m the one who bought the graves next to our father’s.”

She had been wary toward Samantha, though it was not to say that she was helping Sheryl retain her place as

Lionel’s legally married wife. After all, Sheryl was over Lionel, and Irene wanted her mother to live a long, fulfilling

life-she did not want a grave for her so soon.

In fact, Irene had bought it just because she did not want Samantha to be interred beside Lionel.

On the other hand, it took Ricky a long while to actually realize what Irene meant. “You did that for Sheryl?” “More

or less,” Irene said.

“Huh.” Rick sighed, realizing that he was too late.

It seemed that he was not as smart as Irene, who showed foresight while he only thought about his mother’s

funeral matters now.

“You’re really smart, Sis. Dad was right to leave Spencer Holdings in your care,” he said.

At that very moment, he was not actually jealous-instead, he was impressed with Irene’s consideration. She had

also been the one who resolved a crisis for the company before, and he must admit that their father had shown

foresight in leaving matters to her.

In fact, the reason Lionel had not divorced Sheryl was probably not just because he still had feelings for Sheryl, but

also because he acknowledged Irene as his daughter.

“Yes, but Spencer Holdings is in your hands now,” Irene said. “That’s why you should pull yourself together soon to

lead everyone again. Your mother had been hoping for you to inherit the family’s estates, but you have to know

that money and real property aren’t alive. On the other hand, if you do well at the company, you would earn the

money and respect. I’m sure your mother wants you to be successful too, so you should really do well so that she

could be at ease.”

Ricky nodded at her encouragement. “Yeah.”

He had always known that Samantha wanted him to inherit the Spencer estate, and Irene was also right in that

Spencer Holdings was the family’s lifeblood, and could bring him more value!

Samantha might even be at peace now if she knew that it was in his hands.

Still, he would not have control over Spencer Holdings if Irene did not give it to him.

“Thank you, Irene.”

“There’s no need to be so polite. We’re family,” she replied.

Over at the Light Group headquarters, Quincy was presiding over the board meeting.

Naturally, Henry had to show up since Quincy would have no right otherwise.

However, things were different today, since no one was siding with Isaac, while lan was present as well.

Quincy had managed to take him out of police custody because Isaac did not interfere, and here he was now,

showing up at the board meeting!

As the meeting started, Henry promptly threw a stack of reports on the table. “I think everyone should see this.”

He had already told lan to prepare printed copies and distribute a copy to each board member.

Everyone was furious after they read it, and promptly turned their crosshairs on Isaac.

“We trusted you, Isaac. How could you burn our money like this?”

“That’s right! I even defended you before!”

“That’s hundreds of millions of dollars lost, and you hid it from us! Who do you think we are?”

‘Explain yourself, Isaac!”

At the same time, lan was smiling smugly. “Didn’t expect this, did you, Isaac? Did you really think you could fool

everyone?”

On the other hand, Henry was very direct. “I propose to remove Isaac from his position as CEO. Does anyone have

anything to say?”

This time, the board members were quiet-unlike before, none of them were defending Isaac because they were

doing this for the money. Now that their wallets were hurt, they certainly would not want him as CEO anymore.

Moreover, Quincy had spoken to everyone in private, promising higher bonuses should lan successfully replace

Isaac as CEO.

The only reason they were recommending Greg Jefferson before was because lan had been arrested, but now that

lan was here, Quincy was going all out to support her son.

Even if she had been so sweet with Greg before, she was much more at ease having her son take over.
