Charlotte Reed’s words made Ethan Seymour feel comfortable at heart, and this good mood lasted until the next day when they arrived at the Seymour Corporation’s meeting room.
Everyone was really present; it seemed that Old Mr. Seymour was determined this time.
Ethan Seymour sat down in his place, with a gloomy face, ignoring the people around him.
The other board members also knew that he was in a bad mood at this time and no one would be so bored as to provoke him.
Soon, the door of the meeting room opened, breaking the awkward atmosphere in the room.
Ethan Seymour glanced at the entering Old Mr. Seymour, and then quickly looked behind him, but did not see Julian Campbell’s figure.
Ethan felt a bit relieved in his heart, could it be that there was a reprieve?
"I won’t waste everyone’s time today, I’m here to announce one thing," Old Mr. Seymour declared, "In the future, Seymour Corporation will be handed over to my great-grandson, Julian Campbell."
Old Mr. Seymour had absolute authority at the Seymour Corporation, and the other board members couldn’t refute anything, but they were definitely shocked.
"Old Mr. Seymour, letting Julian inherit... will Julian come to work at the company?" Ralap Lee was the first to speak up. His father had established this company with Old Mr. Seymour, so his question was perfectly legitimate.
"Are we all teaching Julian now?" To be honest, Ralap Lee currently felt that as long as it wasn’t Ethan Seymour inheriting the Seymour Corporation, he wouldn’t be worried at all.
"Then we need to draft a plan... Old Mr. Seymour, do you already have an arrangement?" Other board members asked after Ralap spoke up.
The direction this was developing was completely unexpected for Ethan Seymour, how could this be happening?
"Are you just letting someone with no experience at all take over the company?" Ethan Seymour asked angrily in disbelief, "Have you all gone mad?"
"He can learn if he doesn’t know, it’s not like he’s taking over immediately." Ralap Lee said with a smile.
"Exactly, with so many of us, how can we not teach him?" The other board members chimed in.
"How do you know Julian can learn? What if he turns out to be useless?" Ethan Seymour thought these people were really crazy, how could they agree to such an absurd decision?
"To be honest, even if Julian learns nothing, in the end, he will still sit in that position, believe it or not?" The meeting room door opened, and Sophie Wilson came in with Julian Campbell.
Sophie’s words made Ethan Seymour frown, and he rebuked, "What is an outsider like you doing in the Seymour Corporation’s meeting?"
"I invited her; do you have any objections?" Old Mr. Seymour retorted.
"Dad, it’s true this company is your hard work, but it also contains everyone’s efforts. You cannot act so arbitrarily; such actions will only ruin the company!" Ethan Seymour’s words elicited a snicker from Sophie, who said, "Mr. Seymour, let me give you a suggestion: you’d better ask everyone if they want Julian to take over Seymour Corporation."
"Isn’t that worth asking?" Ethan Seymour turned his head, his gaze moving over the faces of the board members in the meeting room, "Do you really want to waste time and take a risk on someone who may not be fit to be the leader?"
"Come on, everyone, let’s have a vote." Sophie Wilson said with a smile, clapping her hands, "Those in favor of Julian taking over Seymour Corporation, please raise your hand."
Then, to Ethan Seymour’s shock, everyone in the meeting room raised their hands in unison.
