Chapter 721

“I can’t figure it out either,” Andy said. “So we can only bear with it a little longer.”

Mark was at a loss for words. Upon hearing that, he wore a troubled expression as well.

They were initially the most capable people working for Bruce.

In terms of power and influence in the company, they were second only to Bruce in the past.

Now that Liam had taken over as the chairman, they were unwilling to switch allegiance to him. As a result, their status plummeted, and they could no longer stand tall with the same authority and influence they once had.

At Everett Group the next day, Liam smugly walked into the conference room in a smooth suit that was free of wrinkles. He was wearing a dark red tie.

“Hello, everybody,” Liam greeted.

All shareholders of various stakes in the company had long waited in the conference room. “Hi, Mr. Miller,” they greeted in

Liam’s lips curved with an uncontrollable smile as he took a seat in the position where Bruce used to sit.

“Let’s start the meeting,” Liam said.

All the shareholders had solemn expressions as they looked at Liam respectfully.

“I believe everyone read the news the past few days, right?” Liam said.

Mr. Young smiled obsequiously and flattered. He said, “How could I not read such an important piece of news?

“Mr. Miller, you are Mr. Everett’s guardian from now on, so naturally, you will also be the leader of Everett Group,

Everyone cheered and applauded upon hearing that.

A few shareholders who did not get along with Liam had no choice but to lower their heads and clap along with everyone else.

“Since I’ve taken over Everett Group, I definitely have to make a notable impact,” Liam said. “Many of the company’s previous deficiencies and shortcomings have to be corrected.”

“Mr. Miller, we believe that you will definitely be able to take the company to new heights…”

After Liam officially announced his succession as the chairman of the company, a staff meeting was quickly convened.
