Victor’s autistaest resrieved the appointment lester and took his seat to Victor’s left
Victor had regained has composure by now. There was a smug grin on his face. “Marina, you w Martin Zamora’s signature. dades’t you
Marina stayed silent.
A triumphant glint flickered in Leo’s eyes as he interjected calmly, “Marina, no matter what kind of trouble Daron encounters, we will still upport him all the way.
“Since you’re here as Daron’s proxy, just go with the flow. Don’t go making enemies for yourself. You have to face the reality?
Marina’s hands gripped the armrests tightly, but she looked at Leo with a disarming smile. “Leo, what makes you so sure Daron is in trouble at this moment?
“I don’t think this appointment letter carries any weight. After all, my husband is the key shareholder of this subsidiary. He wasn’t even at the meeting when Victor Zamora was appointed. This was an appointment made unilaterally by Martin Zamora. I can’t accept that
“All these years, it has been a standing company rule in the Zamora Group that all shareholders have to be present to make any major personnel decisions. It is obvious this appointment letter has broken that rule:
Leo frowned at Marina as his face turned ominous. “Marina, are you deliberately going against us?”
Marina shook her head. “Leo, what are you saying? Why would I want to go against you?
I’m just raising some reasonable concerns. How can that be construed as going against you?”
Leo’s face turned menacing instantly.
Leo’s second family out of wedlock had never interfered in the overseas business.
This time, Leo had teamed up with them for his own scheme.
Once the second family’s scion got established in the subsidiary, the Zamora Group’s Frency subsidiary would be theirs alone.
For now, it was all about getting Victor into the management ranks, but over time, when Daron was no longer in power, the Frency subsidiary would end up as Leo and Victor’s personal asset. It would be totally independent from the Zamora Group.
Over the years, Daron had turned the Zamora Group’s Frency subsidiary into a stock market darling.
Therefore, taking control of this subsidiary meant getting hold of a valuable asset.
That was why Leo didn’t hesitate to throw his support behind Martin Zamora when the latter took up his position at headquarters.
Everyone was putting the heat on the old man, Harris Zamora, to choose the next successor.
And just like that, Martin Zamora took over Daron’s spot.
Once Martin got himself established, the Zamora Group gave a press conference to announce he was the new head honcho.
Everything happened so fast that Marina didn’t receive the news in time as she was out of the country.

After saying his piece, Len surveyed the faces in the conference room. Then, he announced again, Ar’s get it to a yote. Hands up if you agree”
Marina interrupted again. “I don’t agree
Leo was beginning to lose his patience as he glared at Marina.
A faint smile played on Marina’s lips as she continued, “I’m afraid I don’t agree, Leo.
“I don’t agree with any of the reform proposals tabled today. The Frency subsidiary is still owned by the Zamora Group’s headquarters. According to the rules, if a shareholder objects during the meeting, these decisions should go back to the HQ for review, and then another meeting will be called. Isn’t that how it works?”
Leo was visibly annoyed now.
Before coming here, Marina had taken pains to thoroughly familiarize herself with all the rules the Zamora Group’s headquarters had laid out for its subsidiaries.
Victor was starting to lose his cool as Marina kept placing obstacle after obstacle in his way.
However, Leo shot him a look that shut him up quickly.
Finally, Leo rose from his seat and stated in a steely voice, “Since you’re deliberately trying to cause trouble, we’ll forward these reform proposals to the 11Q and get their direct approval.
“Marina, when the outcome is announced in three days, you’d better not throw a tantrum.”
Marina met Leo’s gaze calmly. “You know that’s not my style, Leo”
Leo gave a dismissive snort. “We’ll see.”
With that, Leo strode out of the conference room. Victor hurried after him.
“Dad, why are we letting her have her way? It’s obvious that…” Victor started, but his voice trailed off.
Marina felt very relieved inwardly. She had successfully accomplished her mission of stopping this meeting’s agenda.
After Leo and Victor left, the remaining management executives finally turned to Marina. “Ms. Finley, how is Mr. Zamora?”
“We’re all very concerned about Mr. Zamora,” another added.
These staff were handpicked and groomed by Daron himself.
But now that they had made it to these positions, if they went against the HQ, they would lose their jobs.
If Marina hadn’t shown up today, they would have simply gone along with whatever Leo said.

Her all, they had seen the photos from the scene.
The big truck had driven straight at Daron’s car and rammed into it.
According to the dashcam footage, his vehicle flipped over a number of times before rolling off the road.
There was no way anyone could have walked away from such a horrific accident.
Vitthon aufer word, Marina exited the conference room. Bette was waiting for her outside.
She had just seen Leo and Victor storm out in fury. A faint, knowing smile crept across her face as she watched them.
“You did great in there, Bette said as she gave Marina an encouraging pat on the shoulder.

replied softly. “It was no big deal.”
Ja minor obstacle posed no challenge to her at all.
However, with all the trouble brewing at the Zamora Group’s headquarters, if Leo went straight to the HQ for approval, Warna would be powerless to stop him even if she wanted to.
Kette noticed the worry in Marina’s eyes. She reached out and held her arm. Then she started walking her toward the elevator. “Don’t worry. We’ll make it in time?
They still had three days. Once Daron had all the proof in his hands, Leo and Victor would not have the guts to strut around in front of him anymore.
