She Is A CEO

By the time Jacob and Samuel and the subordinates arrived in the general conference room on floor 29th, the rest of the JTP's top executives were already there. They surrounded Lucia and the others, with them at the head of the table. Jacob frowned at the sight.

"Who brought you here?!" Anyway, he was still the president of the JTP. Jacob maintained his arrogant posture and shouted as he walked into the conference room. As soon as he finished his words, there was silence on the scene. Everyone turned to look at him with different expressions on their faces, and no one dared to answer.

"Why, don't You Recognize me?!" Jacob raised his voice slightly when he saw that everyone had shut their mouths because of his words. He was secretly happy that these people were still afraid of him. "Have a seat, everyone," Lucia said to the crowd in a low voice, ignoring Jacob. Everyone returned to their seats in an orderly manner. Some were excited about the new generation, while others were gloating. In short, for now, they seemed to be listening to Lucia's words.

Jacob was so angry when he saw the others obeying Lucia's command that he led a group of his subordinates to Lucia and said coldly,

"Lucia, aren't you a little overbearing?"

"Who's the one being overbearing?" Lucia asked, glancing into Jacob's eyes.

Jacob knew it was a bad time to bring it up, so he turned on Arthur and said to Arthur, "Mr. Davies, this is an internal matter within the JTP. Is it a bad time for you to be here?"

Arthur didn't immediately respond. Instead, he looked at Kyle, who was instructed to place a document on the conference table and said to Jacob,

"Mr. Taylor, Mr. Davies is fully qualified to participate in the JTP's internal management meeting. As for the reason, there's a document here. Please take a look at it first."

Jacob sneered, thinking Arthur was bluffing. What could he possibly have to stand for? With this attitude, he contemptuously picked up the document and read t it with disdain, but the more he read, the worse his face looked.

It was a stock certificate that clearly showed Arthur's holdings of JTP shares, and that number scared Jacob.

23%!

Arthur owned 23% shares of the JTP! And he didn't even know it!

"Arthur, when did you?!" Jacob shouted excitedly as he slammed the document on the conference table.

"Never mind when did I do it. I'm the shareholder of 23% shares in the JTP. I'm supposed to be in the middle of an executive meeting like this, right?" Arthur turned a blind eye to Jacob's glare, asked him lightly. Everyone was shocked and started talking. They didn't expect Arthur to become a shareholder of the JTP. At first, they thought that Arthur was just here to support Lucia.

Arthur's words caused Jacob to gasp. It seemed that he couldn't breathe or couldn't vent out. It made him feel uncomfortable and resentful.

Seeing that Jacob's face was red with anger, Arthur smiled instead and nodded to him before he graciously took the vice-chair seat. Jacob owned 70% of the JTP shares, and he had absolute control of the JTP, so Arthur, who owned 23% shares, had every right to be here.

"Jacob, are you going to stand here and listen to my announcement, or are you going to sit down and listen?" asked Lucia impatiently. She was tired of Jacob's meddling attitude.

Jacob, who had been tricked by Arthur, was now in a fit of rage, and he was even more enraged by what Lucia had said. Ignoring his own feelings for her, Jacob took a few steps forward and approached Lucia, gritting his teeth,

"Lucia, you're not in charge of JTP!"

Lucia raised her eyes, looked firm and fearless, and watched Jacob's angry look,

"You'll see."

Seeing that Lucia was still saying this, Jacob was so angry that he subconsciously reached out to grab Lucia. However, Arthur, who was standing aside, quickly grabbed his wrist. Arthur had an advantage over Jacob in terms of body size. It was so easy to control him that Jacob was like a captured rabbit, struggling in vain.

"You want to stand and listen," said Arthur, glancing at Jacob's subordinates who were trying to help. He stopped them with a look, then lowered his head and said to Jacob, "Stand and listen."

And then he shoved Jacob forward. Jacob lost his balance and stumbled back a few steps. It would have been very embarrassing if Samuel hadn't caught him. But even so, still no one dared to come forward and accused Arthur of his actions.

Jacob's face turned pale and then livid, and he trned his head around to look at the executives in the room. Before anyone could react, the expressions on their faces reflected their true nature. Some were playful, some were sarcastic, and some were contemptuous. No one stood up to speak for him. Jacob was so aware of this that he became angry and stood up straight and yelled at them,

"Get back to work! Do you know who your boss is?"

Yet no one reacted to Jacob's words.

In fact, before Jacob's arrival, a number of executives had already begun to ask Lucia about the purpose of her visit to the company, as they had also watched the video. And more executives had directly stated whether Lucia was interested in moving into the JTP. They were all looking forward to a change in the company. They had had enough of Jacob's wayward and paranoid ways. Lucia had not given a clear answer, but her attitude said it all.

So the executives kept to themselves, heard Lucia out under pressure, and would not leave until things were sorted out.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Seeing that his men disobeyed his order, Jacob pushed Samuel out of his way, rushed to the table and slammed the table, "Don't you all want this job?!"

The scene was silent.

"Okay," Jacob laughed, "No matter how this day turns out, I, Jacob, swear that as long as I am here, as long as I have the right, no one here today will be able to stay in my JTP!"

There was some reaction, but it wasn't fear of Jacob. It was a collective look at Lucia, waiting for her to speak.
