Mr. Miller started, “I think, Mr. Hudson, you got confused, so let me clear some points. I hope that all of you are aware of the latest changes implemented in the Hudson Empire. Because of Mrs. Eva Stephen Smith’s ownership of 50% of the assets of the Hudson Empire, it is essential for her to be present here. Isn’t it?.”
The present members didn’t react to the statement, as they knew it well.
“I am not getting confused, but I would really appreciate it if Stephen should be present here. As we are talking about business here, not about some cooking or baking show. “
As Liam mocked Eva, she responded confidently by looking back at him and replying without hesitation.
It seems to me, Mr. Hudson, that you are quite eager to meet my husband; otherwise, I would have asked him to come with me. My husband has become renowned in the business world because of his many accomplishments in life, which explain his busy schedule.
Because of the complexity of my affairs, it is equally challenging for him to comprehend them. Despite any doubts or concerns, he has complete trust in my abilities, regardless of whether the task at hand is as simple as baking a cake or as complex as managing a significant company such as Hudson’s. Sorry to disappoint you, but you have to work with me only."
This type of reply caught Liam off guard, and he was not expecting it. It took aback him and he was shocked to hear the words that came out of her mouth. He was confused, because last night at the reception party, she was avoiding eye contact with him, and now she seems like a completely different girl. It is intriguing to me she could find the energy and power to argue with him. What do you think was the reason behind her potency?
“Well, that’s your husband’s point of view, not Despite any other considerations, we should begin the meeting promptly since we have designated it the Managing Director of the Hudson group of companies. I have been the Managing Director of this company for over 25 years, and during this time, our company has witnessed tremendous growth, which is a testament to my leadership abilities. Therefore, I believe that there is no better choice for the position than me. Although this meeting is called for just formality’s sake, “
Mr. Miller was the one who started
“We regret to inform you we cannot agree with this selection because it does not seem like a good idea. This is because a lot of the hotels under this empire are currently experiencing losses. The situation is getting worse as the manufacturing unit is shutting down one by one and the clubs are not far behind either. Complaints against club management are a daily routine.”
Liam chuckled and started hiding his animosity. “That’s not a big issue. Every company has to deal with minor problems, and you could discuss this with Stephen. After all, he is in the business world and understands this very well. “
Mr miller was going to put an argument again, but Eva stopped him by showing her palm and state with a smile
My opinion does not align with the statement made by Mr. Hudson. Running a company encompasses more than just finances; it also involves the well-being of the staff, the dedication of workers, and the families who rely on our company. According to their statistics, they have revealed that certain hotels cannot afford the payroll of their staff, which is a significant issue that requires attention. “
“So, what do you suggest? “ One of the board members suggested.
“It’s time for a change and to be a co-owner of this property. I will propose my name for the post of MD: “Eva let out with confidence.
The complete conference room got silent. They are all gaping at the fragile-looking young girl who is ready to compete against the devil. Liam Hudson.
“Good thought, but nothing is happening like that, as these people will never go against me.”
“They are not against anyone by electing me; they are just supporting the change and trust me, it will be only for the betterment of Hudson’s company.” Eva replied with a smile
The board members were delighted to see the confidence of Eva and wanted to support her, but the only fear was the threat of Liam Hudson.
Mr. Miller suggested, looking at the faces of the board members.
“We believe that there is no need to conduct a poll since we have papers that reveal Mrs. Smith’s entitlement to 55% ownership of Hudson properties. They should appoint her as MD of the company.”
The others look at the papers in amazement
It shocked Liam to know about this new information, but his lawyer, who checked the papers, signaled him that the papers were correct.
“This seems implausible, so I am curious how it could be possible. The will seems to imply that the properties should be partitioned equally, doesn’t it?” Liam whispered to his lawyer.
“It does, Mr. Hudson, but you remember about the big estate, which was in legal dispute?"
“Yeah, but we are dealing with the case, isn’t it?”
“Yes.. No.. Your father will clearly state that the person who resolves the matter will become the owner of the big estate. After a few days, Mrs. Eva Smith resolved the issue, which made her the owner of the big estate, adding over 5% to her property share.
“And when are you going to inform me about this?”
“We are also getting to know about this right now
“I guess I need a new legal team, as I have gathered a bunch of fools here.”
