Steal my heart novel (Grace James and Caden Shaw)

Chapter 246 He Is Too Tired

At the round table, everyone looked wired.

Caden’s appearance did not change.

But no matter how well he hid it, people noticed his pale face.

Some people got that these ten days was difficult for Caden.

Well, within ten days, everything had changed dramatically.

Inside, the Shaw Group was in a crisis. NôvelDrama.Org content.

He abandoned his wife and persecuted the innocent daughter of the James family.

Caden, a man who had been like a god, was pushed down from the altar.

Hale finally said, “Let me ask you one last time.”

Before Hale finished his words.

“Don’t,” the man beside Hale said firmly,

“I know what you want to ask.”

There was a touch of anger slid past Hale’s dark eyes.

“My answer is the same.”

The same!

He said his answer was the same!

Hale gritted his teeth tightly!

He was extremely furious as he waited for his grandson beside him.

The cane in his hand was knocked heavily on the ground, and he was so mad that he laughed.

“Good! As you wish!”

He called out to everyone, “You are all clear about the purpose of this shareholders’ meeting of the

Shaw Group. I won’t beat around the bush anymore.”

His pointed at Caden with his finger.

“Today, let’s talk about my grandson!”

At the round table, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, the liquidation had begun.

Hale waved his hand, and Sam came forward to hand him a paper bag. Hale placed it on the table and

listed Caden’s three problems.

“You are callous for ruining the reputation of the Shaw Group.

You are unjust for ruining the reputation of the Shaws, which has been maintained for generations.

You are incompetent for the crisis that the group is facing.

The group can’t be handed over to someone as callous, unjust, and incompetent as you!”

Hale scolded, “You still have a chance to resign.”

This was Hale’s attitude.

Everyone’s gaze was focused on the cold and arrogant man who had been expressionless for a long

time.

Kern would never be so stupid as to highlight his presence at this moment.

In this round, he sat and watched them fight with indescribable joy in his eyes.

Grandpa and grandson fought back and forth. The fiercer they fought, the better it was.

The corner of his eyes swept out of the meeting room. There was a sneaky figure holding a camera.

Kern lowered his eyelids without saying anything.

It was sure that the headlines tomorrow would be the inside story of the Shaw Group meeting. A fierce

battle between the grandpa and the grandson of the Shaws.

Everyone’s gaze fell on the leading man.

The man who hadn’t moved all this time snapped his fingers, and his assistant, the strong man behind

him, also handed him a file bag.

His gaze swept across everyone’s faces calmly before he said indifferently,

“Everyone’s time is precious. Why do we waste it talking nonsense?

Since the shareholders’ meeting concerns the immunity and appointment of the head of the Shaw

Group,”

He put his hands on his chin, looked ahead, and said indifferently,

“I suggest we vote.”

Hale was so angry that he laughed!

Now, it was clear that Caden would be kicked out. “Vote? Okay,” Hale sneered. He knew how arrogant

his grandson was, but he didn’t know Caden’s blind confidence.

Two of them agreed to vote.

And the others would not jump out and refute it.

Sure enough, Caden was at a disadvantage after a round of voting.

The smile at the corner of Kern’s mouth became more obvious, and the gaze he fixed on Caden’s face

was full of mock.

“This is the vote result,” Hale said, “What else do you want to say now?”

When Caden expanded the business in the past three years, he did not rearrange the new territories in

time. In addition, Hale had been secretly manipulating. His dominant stake had been diluted to only two

thirds in these three years.

In addition to the votes of the other shareholders, the shares in Hale’s hands had already gained the

upper hand.

After announcing the final shares ratio, many people seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. They were

afraid that if they failed to beat him down, they would suffer instead.

The moment the result was announced, many shareholders looked at the once lofty man with ridicule.

That man was once unattainable and indescribably noble. Right now, they could only see that the

man’s complexion had turned even more pale.

“Since the voting result has come out, then, Caden, please resign from the CEO of the Shaw Group.”

Someone struck him when he was down. After the result was announced, he stood up excitedly and

berated Caden, “Please take your personal belongings and leave the company immediately. Your

cooperation will be appreciated, otherwise, the security guard will send you away.”

“Who said that?”

When the crowd was in the excitement, a voice suddenly sounded in the meeting room.

“I haven’t voted yet.”

When this voice sounded, Hale, Kern, and the others in the meeting room suddenly turned their heads

around to look at the person who spoke.

“Darby? What are you doing?”

Darby smiled and stood up. He walked behind Caden and said, “When did I express my support for

Hale?”

It didn’t need to!

Everyone’s eyes revealed absurdity!

Darby, weren’t you the first to stand on Hale’s side?

Everyone knew what kind of great benefits Hale had given to you!

These people all got benefits. They knew it, but Darby was the one who got the most.

“Darby, what are you doing?” One of the shareholders said angrily, “Stop pretending to be a faithful

man! Who doesn’t know what kind of person you are!”

Because of anger, he didn’t choose his words and what he said was inappropriate in the meeting.

He wasn’t to blame. If Darby were to betray them, they would be doomed!

Caden was extremely vicious and ruthless, as everyone knew.

He might not be able to do anything to them in the short term, but when he was available, he would not

be merciful in dealing with them!

Darby smiled genially. He wasn’t angry at all. He said,

“Yes, everyone here knows what kind of person I am. In the business circle of the S City, who else

doesn’t know what kind of person I am?”

His words changed, and a cold look appeared in his smiling face.

“But what you don’t know is that President Shaw has saved my life!”

He said coldly, “It’s said that I forsake good for the sake of gold, but I still remember President Shaw’s

goodness. He took the knife for me. I can still see that light-colored scar on his shoulder.”

As he spoke, he turned to Hale respectfully and said,

“Master Shaw, I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you.”

Everyone said that Caden was aloof and heartless, but it was he who took the knife for Darby years

ago.

Darby had money and power, but compared to President Shaw, it was nothing. In such case, President

Shaw were still willing to save his life without hesitation.

Hale began to cough and his eyes widened. He coughed fiercely as he was furious at Darby’s betrayal.

Sam’s expression changed.

“Take it easy, Master Shaw!”

Hale tried hard to calm himself down. After a long time, he restrained his dizziness and said, “I’m fine.”

He stretched out his hand to stop Sam.

Kern’s expression changed drastically.

They all expected the beginning of the meeting, but not the end of it.

“Master Shaw, relax. I’ll drive you to the hospital.” Something was wrong with Hale’s expression as he

showed the whites of his eyes.

Kern knew that there was no need to stay here anymore. He suddenly stood up and bent down to hold

Hale up.

Caden was still sitting there.

Sam walked to the door of the meeting room and suddenly returned. He gritted his teeth and scolded,

“That’s your grandfather! How could you sit still?”

With that, he chased after Kern without turning back.

In the meeting room, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Caden was still sitting upright on his chair. Ladd shouted, “Boss, everyone’s gone.”

However, the man sitting on the chair didn’t seem to have heard it.

“Ladd, leave me alone,” he ordered calmly.

Everyone thought that Caden was heartless, but no one spotted that the hand on his knee trembled

slightly.

He did not explain to Sam. Just as he was about to stand up and take Hale to the hospital, his eyes

suddenly darkened.

The phone rang at the right time.

He picked up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Humbert asked, “Is it over?”

The man said indifferently, “Yes.”

“What are you going to do next?”

Though he turned defeat into victory in the meeting, the calamity of the Shaw Group had had not

finished.

There were still a lot of things to deal with.

The share price of the group was still plummeting.

Caden was still notorious.

All of this required a smart and capable group leader to deal with one by one.

“Sleep.”

“Sleep ...” Humbert did not have the time to think and answer. The next moment, he suddenly felt that

something was wrong. “What did you say? Sleep? At this time?”

“Yes, sleep. I want to rest.” On the other side of the phone, the man’s face was incomparably cold and

firm. “I’m too tired, I need to rest.”

Hearing this, Humbert chuckled,

“It’s rare. Caden admitted that he is tired!”

“Yes, I’m so tired.” At this moment, his eyes had already regained their clarity. “Well, I have to admit

that I am not as young as before.” He was so tired that his body couldn’t hold on anymore. This time,

he was blind for a short minute. What about the next time?

He only knew that if his body fell before his yearning, he would no longer be able to accompany that

woman.

He still yearned to comb her hair, bathing in the sunset.

When Humbert heard that he said this seriously, a big laugh echoed in his chest, “Alright, have a sleep.

I’ll help you with the rest.”
