NovelAppChapter 1903 Dreams CTrue Who knew Bella would readily agree to the arrangement? No matter how much Rochelle had tried to make things difficult for Bella lately, the latter endured it all and stayed on until now, even going so far as to barge into the conference room.
Of course, they could choose to throw Bella out, but that'd make it seem like they had ulterior motives and a guilty conscience.
As it turned out, that was indeed the case.
Paul cast an impatient look at Bella. “The shareholders meeting is meant to align with the shareholders’ schedules. What difference does it make if it's three days early or three days late? Ms. Benett may be gone, but we're still alive. Are we not allowed to keep the company going? Do you think she'd want Benett Corporation to crash and burn overnight?” Upon seeing Paul's pompous demeanor, Bella bit her lip in frustration.
“All I know is that no matter what, Ms. Benett would never want the company to fall into the hands of a sc*mbag like you!” Now, Paul was truly enraged.
To be more precise, he couldn't wait any longer.

Alas, there just had to be a fly in the ointment.
Paul had been feeling uneasy for the past few days, and even his dreams were about Elisa making a powerful comeback and driving him out.
Therefore, to avoid any complications caused by undue delay, he decided to bring forward the meeting.
He had already spoken to the other shareholders, and as for the old-timers who disagreed with him, he could always find a reason to dismiss them after the meeting.
That way, it wouldn't matter whether Elisa was dead or alive.
Even if the woman were to return from the dead, any retaliation on her part would undoubtedly be of no avail.
How, then, could Paul allow Bella to ruin his plans? Meanwhile, Bella was starting to incite the masses by going down the line of shareholders.
“You! When the company you were in charge of got into trouble, Ms. Benett did everything she could to help you. It's because of her that you're where you are today. And you... Have you forgotten how you climbed the corporate ladder? You! Who do you think covered your mother's medical bills back then? Have you all forgotten?” Indeed, the group of people singled out by Bella had all received Elisa's kindness and support at spoint in their lives.
Even though their capabilities shouldn't be overlooked in their rise to the top, it was also undeniable that they wouldn't have gotten there without Elisa promoting them.
Needless to say, Bella was utterly disheartened by how heartless people could be and how easily they changed their loyalties.
Several guilt-ridden shareholders suddenly stood up and turned to Paul. “Let's postpone the meeting if we can't work this out.
After all, it's just a matter of three days. That's not a long wait.” Paul's expression instantly turned as black as thunder.
After signaling to Rochelle with a glance to call for security, he spoke up with a deep voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What's the matter, everyone? Are we treating the shareholders meeting like a gwe can bring forward and postpone whenever we like?” By then, Paul had torn his mask away and dropped all pretense.
After all, who cared about maintaining civility when his sole intention was to get his hands on the company? With that, the security guards filed into the room one after another, ready to escort Bella away.
The latter put on a fierce struggle, but sadly, it was difficult fighting two men off by herself.
Just as she was about to be thrown out of the room, a booming voice suddenly rang out.
“Stop!” Everyone turned toward the sound and couldn't hide their surprise when they saw Julia Smith.
Although Julia was no longer in the business sector, her reputation remained positive and strong.
There wasn't a single person who hadn't heard of her fand deeds, so naturally, they all held a certain respect for her.
Paul, on the other hand, instinctively felt that something was amiss. It felt like he was watching events spiral out of control, yet he was powerless to do anything.
Then again, despite the frustration and reluctance, he knew he couldn't skip his social niceties.
With that, Paul stood up and looked at Julia with a smile.
“What brings you here today?”
