The disgruntled shareholders stormed out, and David rooted to the spot, caught between a rock and a hard place.
David thought to himself, 'I don't want to lose money, but I can't lose my identity as the chairman either.
'If I were to leave now, how can I seize the opportunity to win back the position that should be mine?'
Skylar glared coldly at David and said, "Why are you still here? Are you trying to eavesdrop on our company's confidential information?
"Spying on another company's confidential information is illegal. If you don't want to end up in jail, I suggest you leave immediately."
After much consideration, David decided to swallow his pride and stick it out for now. 'So what if I lose some money? If I can reclaim my position, what does little money matter in the end?' he thought.
Rubbing his hands nervously with an ingratiating smile, David said, "Skylar, I just got carried away just now, and thus what I said was a bit..."
"Mr. Stone, how can you go back on your word? You'd better leave now. I'll have them prepare the share transfer agreement right away. You'll get every cent you're due," Skylar responded.
'I've already swallowed my pride and tried to make peace, but Skylar still turned me down. Isn't she deliberately humiliating me?'
'Skylar isn't the pushover she used to be; she may actually call the police,' David thought.
David sneered coldly, "Don't get cocky. Let's see how long this pathetic company of yours can survive. When it collapses, I'll return with the shareholders to watch you fall apart.
"Mr. Stone, you won't get that chance, and I won't let you have it," Skylar said.
With a huff, David snapped, "Just you wait!"
After the mass exodus, only three shareholders, including Skylar, remained. The room instantly fell noticeably silent.
With calm confidence, Skylar said to the shareholders who stood by her, "There's no need to worry about funding. I'll get it resolved."
"This funding gap isn't minor, are you sure you can resolve it, Ms. Lambert?" one of the shareholders said.
"Since we've decided to support you, we'll share the burden with you. We'll split the equity among us and contribute the necessary funds to help the company get through this difficult time," the other shareholder said.
"The company is going through a difficult time right now, but if we all work together, we'll definitely get through it," another shareholder said.
Skylar said, smiling, "There's no need to worry. Tomorrow, 30 million will be deposited into the company account, and operations will resume as usual."
The shareholders were skeptical. '30 million isn't a small amount. How does she get 30 million on such short notice?
'Unless the Lambert family, the wealthiest around, or someone from the Campbell Group takes an interest in them and decides to invest. Otherwise, coming up with 30 million would be next to impossible,' the shareholders thought.
The shareholders suspected Skylar was just trying to reassure them. Without saying anything further, each privately prepared to raise funds, ready to present the money when the time came.
However, the following day's meeting, the company account showed an additional 30 million in liquid funds.
It was 30 million in liquid assets. The shareholders were utterly stunned, their eyes widened, and their jaws dropped.
"Where did all the money come from?" a shareholder blurted out in disbelief.
Skylar said nonchalantly, "Just a little savings of mine."
'30 million is just a little saving? It's mind-boggling how wealthy Skylar must be now! No wonder she wasn't worried about those shareholders' withdrawal,' they thought.
The shareholders now felt completely reassured. Skylar's ability to casually produce 30 million proved she had real business acumen. They no longer feared losing their investments.
Right now, Skylar was the company's majority shareholder, and she called the shots. When she spoke, the minority shareholders did not get a say.
They were getting old. It was a young people's world now in business; it was time to pass the torch to the new generation.
