Kallum Gaetz looked around at the board members sitting around the table and flashed a calm smile.

He even beckoned to his pretty secretary to light his cigar, breathing a large puff before looking up and chuckling. "What's there to worry about? A woman and a fringe member of the Lane family... Does she think she can be our boss just because she was airdropped on us? Who does she think she is?"

His smile then turned dark. "As long as we work together, what can a woman do to us? We just have to band up against her, protesting and refusing to comply with any policy she makes... I really doubt she'll last against us for a month. In the end, she'll just recognize reality and return where she came from!"

Kallum's suggestion left every other board member giving him a thumbs up. He really was the boss here!

Still, a bespectacled middle-aged man who appeared soft-spoken rose to his feet. "But what if she proves to be a complete novice and insists on standing against us? We can't afford to drag this out!" Kallum actually frowned. "Mr. Briggs, don't tell me that Accounting hasn't sorted out the ledgers?"

Owen Briggs shook his head. "We just can't. There's Mr. Zork's gambling debt, and then the 200 million dollar project which wasn't paid for because of the sinkhole incident. If the new chairwoman looks into it, there's no way we can hide it."
