Audry descended from Greencloud Mountain. She was impatient and went straight to the Hernandez Group.

When she reached the entrance, Ramiro was already waiting there.

“Ms. Hernandez Ramiro greeted Audrey respectfully as she arrived.

Audrey nodded and entered the Hernandez Group with Ramiro

As soon as they entered, they were immediately stopped by the receptionist.

“Hello, do you have an appointment? If not, please leave!” the receptionist said.

Ramiro glanced at the receptionist, his expression calm and his face displaying the seriousness of an elite lawyer. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I am Ramiro Glover from Starglow Law Firm, here on behalf of my client, Miss Audrey Hernandez, to discuss debt repayment with Mr. William Hernandez,” Ramiro said, presenting a series of identification documents and the IOUS signed by William earlier.

Upon seeing the words “Starglow Law Firm,” the receptionist was astonished.

Starglow Law Firm was a well–known entity throughout Chritonia, and its founder, Simon Evans, was hailed as the top lawyer in Chritonia.

The receptionist naturally understood the status of this law firm in Chritonia. It was precisely because of this understanding that she was shocked.

The receptionist immediately said, “Mr. Glover, please wait. I will call the secretary’s office to inquire right away.”

“No need, we’ll go up ourselves.” Ramiro nodded faintly and then walked directly to the elevator with Audrey

Their strong aura, especially that of the young woman leading, was intimidating. The receptionist didn’t dare to stop them.

A board meeting was being held in the conference room of the Hernandez Group.

In just half a month, the market value of the Hernandez Group had plummeted to its lowest. Several major contracts signed previously had been terminated, and the company was facing massive compensation claims. Internal funds were severely constrained, and if things continued like this, bankruptcy seemed imminent.

Faced with this situation, almost all the other members of the board turned their accusations towards William.

One of the board members said, “William, since you are unable to save the Hernandez Group, it’s time for someone capable to take over as chairman!”

This wasn’t so much a board meeting as it was a session to condemn William.

William was sullen, his expression becoming even more gloomy and he angrily shouted, “I am already working on resolving the issues facing the Hernandez Group. Give me some more time!”

“Mr. Hernandez, you’ve been saying the same thing for a while now, but there hasn’t been any improvement in the Hernandez Group’s situation. If things continue like this, we might not even last the week. Since you are incapable, you should step down as chairman!” Another board member said.

A board member said, “That’s right, you can’t just hold onto the position without doing anything. I heard that your family has been in turmoil lately. Did the Hernandez family offend someone, leading to the entanglement of the Hernandez

Group? Otherwise, how could Neptune Investment announce that all banks won’t lend us money?”

“It’s impossible!” William slamined his hand on the table, angrily shouting. “The Hernandez Group will always be mine! If anyone doesn’t like it, just leave!”

A board member said, “William, look at the state of the Hernandez family now. In my opinion, it’s because your family offended someone, dragging the Hernandez Group down. You must step down as chairman of the Hernandez Group!”

“Never! if any of you don’t like it, you can all leave!” William snapped.

William’s anger filled the entire conference room.

Just then, the door of the conference room was kicked open.

At the entrance, a cold and arrogant laughter echoed, “Oh, everyone’s here, perfect!”

Hearing the voice, the previously enraged crowd turned their gaze towards the door. When he saw the newcomer, William’s face turned completely dark.

“Who are you? How did you get in here? Where are the security guards and the people from the secretary’s office? How can they let anyone in casually!” one of the board members shouted at Audrey and Ramiro.

“I am here to attend your shareholders‘ meeting,” Audrey smirked and walked in.

Ramiro followed behind Audrey.

You scoundrel, what are you doing here?” William looked at Audrey, his face dark with anger.

“As I said, I’m here to attend your shareholders‘ meeting and to collect a debt from you!” Audrey sneered and looked at William, her expression carrying a hint of mockery.

After Audrey finished speaking, she glanced at Ramiro behind her. Ramiro nodded.

Then he stepped forward, took out a document from his briefcase, and placed it in front of William. It was a promissory note signed and sealed by William himself.

“Mr. Hernandez, the debt you owe my client has exceeded the time stated on this promissory note. Please settle it, or we may have to take necessary legal actions,” Ramiro said to William.

Ramiro added, “Moreover, if you’re unable to repay this debt, my client is willing to purchase the Hernandez Group shares you have at the current market price as collateral.”

When he heard Ramiro’s words, William’s face turned completely black.

“So this is your intention, wanting shares of the Hernandez Group. You’re delusional!” William looked at Audrey coldly.

“I’m afraid the Hernandez Group has been having a hard time lately,” Audrey sneered, looking at William with a smirk.

William’s gaze suddenly turned fierce as he said, “You troublemaker, it’s all your doing!”

As William spoke, he was about to strike Audrey. Ramiro stepped forward and grabbed William’s hand, his face icy.

Ramiro said, “Mr. Hernandez, if you dare to lay a hand on my client, I might sue you and have you spend the rest of your life in jail! If you don’t believe it, you can try to see if Starglow Law Firm has the capability!”

As soon as they heard the firm name, the members of the board fell silent in fear.

They hadn’t expected this young lawyer to be from Starglow Law Firm!

William was full of anger, feeling powerless, and his face turned pale with rage. He snorted, “I don’t have the money, and I won’t give up the shares!”

Audrey had already guessed that William would say so and didn’t mind. She just looked at William calmly and said, “That’s fine. However, if you don’t want to pay, I might send out the information I have in my hands.”

After Audrey finished speaking, she glanced at William with a smile. Ramiro took out a sealed envelope from his briefcase and placed it in front of William.

“You scoundrel, stop threatening me!” William snorted coldly, not taking it seriously.

But deep down, he felt a little uneasy, feeling that Audrey was even more difficult to deal with than seven years ago.

Audrey didn’t rush. She let William open the sealed envelope.

The next moment, William’s expression completely changed. His face turned pale in an instant.

With a “clang,” he sat down on the chair behind him, his face filled with horror. “Impossible, you couldn’t possibly know about this!”
