Chapter 439

At the crack of dawn, Leandro’s flight touched down punctually at Sunburst City Airport.

Stepping out of the terminal, he went straight back to the Reynolds Group headquarters.

Leandro, after a quick change of clothes, entered the boardroom in his stride.

Inside, the majority of shareholders were already present, awaiting the start of the routine shareholders’ meeting.

As Leandro crossed the threshold, he sensed an unsettling tension in the air.

Sure enough, as the meeting progressed, the atmosphere thickened with palpable unease.

Despite all Reynolds Group’s companies and projects running smoothly with nary a hitch, this meeting took a different turn, with a few shareholders nitpicking and throwing challenges his way, seemingly eager to hold Leandro accountable.

Throughout this ordeal, the Reynolds clan remained neutral, with the exception of Bruce, and nobody else spoke up in Leandro’s favor.

This silence did not go unnoticed by Bruce, who sensed that something was amiss.

The meeting concluded with Leandro’s expression unchanged, while Bruce looked stormy.

Not long after Leandro returned to his office, Bruce followed.
