Chapter 793 Utterly Defeated
[ At SYP Twilight Corp…]
A big commotion happened when a group of armed men entered the building. The employees felt like their office was under attack by unknown men.
The security personnel failed to stop Vincent\'s men from entering the building. "What is happening here?"
"Is this a terrorist attack?"
"But the men are in uniform. Are they from the white house?"
The whispering echoed on the lobby floor.
Soon, Axel came down to face the unexpected visitors. He frowned the moment he recognized the man wearing a white tuxedo.
"Vincent. What are you doing here? You can\'t bring armed men here." Axel immediately called back up from the security team.
But Vincent remained unfazed as he smirked at Axel.
"Where is my brother?" He asked, ignoring Axel\'s remarks.
The crease on Axel\'s forehead deepened further because of Vincent\'s rudeness and arrogance.
"State your business here. Our CEO is a busy person. I will relay your message to him." Axel\'s priority was Nathan\'s safety. He couldn\'t let Nathan face Vincent while being surrounded by armed men.
Vincent\'s sarcastic laugh echoed in the lobby. "CEO? Nathan is no longer your CEO starting today. I am stripping him off of that position."
The employees who overheard them gasped in surprise.
"Huh?"
"This guy is trying to kick out our CEO?"
"Wait! He looks familiar! Oh my gosh! He is the bastard son of our Chairman! He revealed himself to the whole world during the 50th year anniversary celebration of our company."
"Yeah. He is the one who claimed he was the abandoned child of Chairman Xu."
"Oh gosh. This is a family drama."
Cherry had been observing the situation from a distance. She was still on the phone, updating Jane with the current happenings in the SYP Twilight Corp.
"What do you mean by that? You have no power to do that. My Boss is the CEO of this company. You can\'t kick him out." Axel continued to defend Nathan.
Vincent gestured to the person on his right, the one who was holding a briefcase.
"Show him the proof that I have the power to remove Nathan from his current position," Vincent ordered his attorney.
"Yes, sir!" He replied, opening the briefcase and picking up some documents.
"This is the proof that my client here is the largest shareholder of this company. Currently, he acquired seventy-five percent of the total stocks of the company!" The attorney handed over the documents to Axel.
Axel scanned the documents, reading the contents. His eyes widened in disbelief when he saw the numbers. Indeed, this document showed the proof that Vincent was now the largest stockholder of SYP Twilight Corp.
"No way. This is fake," Axel mumbled in denial.
"Of course not. These documents are real!" The attorney insisted.
Axel was about to retort when suddenly Nathan showed up, tapping Axel\'s shoulders.
"Sir?"
"Let me see the document," Nathan said in his neutral tone. He looked unusually calm.
Axel obediently passed the documents to Nathan. He just checked them for a few seconds before handing the documents back to Vincent\'s attorney.
"So it\'s really you who sabotaged our system yesterday," Nathan said, glancing at Vincent meaningfully. He didn\'t show any hint of annoyance or anger.
Because of Nathan\'s nonchalant reaction, Vincent\'s face contorted in dismay. He expected Nathan to be riled up after seeing the document. But Nathan maintained his cool.
\'Damn it! How can he be so calm? I\'m about to take over his company. What\'s wrong with him? Is he just putting up a brave front so that he won\'t feel embarrassed after losing his father\'s company to me,\' Vincent pondered to himself.
"Are you removing me as the CEO of this company?" Nathan asked Vincent, looking straight into his eyes.
Vincent sneered at him. "Yes. You are no longer fit to be the CEO of this company. Your negligence resulted in the system\'s shutdown. Many clients and investors were unhappy about what happened. Furthermore, serious cases happen all over the world. Your robots malfunctioned, causing harm to several citizens all over the world."
Vincent put all the blame on Nathan\'s mismanagement.
"What a shameless jerk! He is the one who caused those system errors!" Axel murmured through his gritted teeth. He had the urge to punch Vincent but Nathan grabbed Axel\'s wrist.
"Alright. I\'ll take responsibility for that. I am gladly stepping down from my current position," Nathan declared.
"Sir! No!" Axel reacted.
Even the other staff were dumbfounded after hearing Nathan\'s last remarks. He was giving up the CEO position without fighting back.
"Good to know!" Vincent chuckled triumphantly. "You are finally accepting defeat." He patted Nathan\'s shoulder.
"Boss! Don\'t do this!" Axel expressed his protest against Nathan\'s decision.
Several employees were also disappointed.
"Sir. Why? Why are you giving up so easily? There must be a way to reclaim the company." Another employee spoke from behind, showing his support to Nathan.
"Sir Nate, don\'t leave us."
But Nathan just gave them a reassuring smile. "Don\'t worry. I still got your back."
Then Nathan shifted his gaze back to Vincent.
"You can have this company. But don\'t you dare fire these people! I assure you. They are all efficient in their respective work. You will need them if you want this company to continue to prosper."
"Just take this as friendly advice coming from the outgoing CEO of this company," Nathan added. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Sure, Bro. I will keep that in mind," Vincent replied mockingly. But his victory wasn\'t absolute. Despite Nathan\'s initial defeat, Vincent couldn\'t rejoice completely, especially when he heard another reason why Nathan was stepping down as the CEO of SYP Twilight Corp.
"Oh, By the way, Vincent. I\'m glad that you came at the right time. In fact, I\'m already planning to look for a substitute because I will become busy in the coming days."
Both Vincent and Axel looked at Nathan with confusion.
"Oh really? Busy for what? Stop putting on a brave facade, Nate. Stop pretending that you are not affected by this." Vincent laughed mockingly.
But Nathan smiled back at him, not showing any negative feelings.
"Well. It\'s on you if you don\'t want to believe me. After everything, I finally found my priority. This company was built by my father. And I know this is precious to him. But there is something more precious to me that I must prioritize."
"I\'m marrying Jane. And I will be busy with the preparation of my wedding. Don\'t worry, Vincent. I will send you an invitation. But I\'m warning you. No monkey business allowed. I won\'t let anyone ruin my special day with Jane."
Axel: "..."
Vincent: *Utterly Shocked*
"Axel, you can escort Vincent to my office. Help them with what he needs." After saying those words, Nathan walked past Vincent. He was excited to see Jane. He preferred to be with her than stay in the office the whole day.
Meanwhile, Vincent was still rooted in his spot. He couldn\'t believe what he had just heard from Nathan.
\'Jane is marrying Nathan. No way! I can\'t let that happen.\'
For some unknown reason, Vincent felt like he was the one who was utterly defeated by Nathan.
\'I don\'t need this company. I want Jane!\'
