Chapter 1007
Now, in the same way, Veronica was also forcing Callum to make a choice.
If Callum really chose Veronica, Lillian thought she probably wouldn’t blame him. After all, he had already done a lot
for her.
“It seems that you want to be the second Madeline.” Callum suddenly smiled. “Have you forgotten what happened
to her?”
Veronica’s expression abruptly fell, and then she said, “I’m not as stupid as her. Her actions caused the ruin of the
entire Tall family.”
“You are stupider than her,” Callum said lazily, and his eyes became colder. “Since the Turner family dares to plot
against me, you should be prepared for your destruction. Maybe next year, your family will be wiped out from the
registers of Sloummont.”
“You…” Veronica’s expression twisted immediately. “Callum, you are too arrogant.”
Callum ignored her words and left with Lillian.
When they got in the car, Lillian asked Callum, “Are you confident about tomorrow?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe looked at her and said, “It’s hard to say who wins or loses before everything ends. I can only say that I have
made what I think is the most complete preparation.”
She bit her lip slightly. “Then… What will happen if you lose?”
“I’ll be kicked out of the board and forced to leave the company. My shares will be continually diluted until I end up
with no money or power. When that happens…”
“I’ll support you!” Lillian said quickly. After saying that, she realized how stupid that sounded. Even if Callum really
lost tomorrow, his assets were far more than ordinary people. Why would she ever need to support him?
“You’ll support me?” He raised his eyebrows and smiled.
She blushed. “I-I was kidding!”
“Well, I won’t take that as a joke.” He said, “If I really lose tomorrow, then you’ll have to support me. Of course, if I
win tomorrow, then I will support you for the rest of my life!”
His deep black eyes were full of love. Lillian looked at Callum and couldn’t help but smile. The worry in her heart
seemed to gradually dissipate as well. “Okay! Then I hope you can support me for the rest of my life!”
The board of directors meeting of the White Maple Group naturally attracted a lot of attention.
As expected, at the board meeting, Ysabel and the Turner family joined hands. They also conspired with several
major shareholders. This, combined with the shares they had purchased, resulted in them holding 5% higher than
Callum. If there were no surprises, Callum would lose.
At that moment, Veronica said smugly to Callum, “I told you that you would lose today. Yesterday was your best
chance at winning, but you didn’t seize it.”
“Really?” Callum smiled. “I think it’s better that the Turner family remains neutral.”
“Oh? Are you asking for mercy now?” Veronica said arrogantly. She thought, “So what if he’s stubborn? In the end,
he still has no choice but to beg for mercy!”
Callum didn’t say anything, simply turning on the LCD screen in the conference room and having his secretary
connect the laptop. Following that, a piece of breaking news about the Turner family suddenly greeted everyone’s
eyes.
A real estate development under the Turner family’s name had been reported for cutting corners, and the relevant
departments in the city were planning to investigate this matter thoroughly.
This real estate development was a key project of the Turner family in the past two years. Now that the relevant
departments were investigating the matter, it was naturally necessary to stop work.
Once the construction was suspended at this stage, the sales of the houses that were originally expected to be sold
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmone month later would also be suspended.
Even after the rectification, it was unknown how the sales would go.

If the sales were not good, then the return of funds would be slower than expected. The next series of chain
reactions might even result in the entire Turner Group being dragged into the mud.
Everyone in the Turner family’s face changed, and Veronica had a dumbfounded expression. Obviously, she didn’t
know about this matter before.
Since this was a board meeting, everyone’s mobile phones were not allowed into the conference room and had to
be handed in earlier. Therefore, Veronica couldn’t even make a call to ask what was going on.
“I also learned the news this morning. If the Turner family wants to save itself now, it should sell its shares in the
White Maple Group. Otherwise, once the capital chain of the Turner family is broken, it will be hard for the Turner
family to survive, let alone partake in a slice of the pie here in the White Maple Group,” Callum said calmly. It was as
if everything was within his expectations.
Meanwhile, Veronica finally understood what Madeline felt back then.
The man before her was the sort to surreptitiously force one to a dead end so that one had no choice but to do
what he wanted.
“Even if the Turner family wants to sell their shares, I can buy them,” Ysabel piped up loudly.
