BXBX NOVEL Chapter 86 - 086: Didn’t Expect Her to Be So Powerful
Henry Charles deeply regretted not disposing of that bitchy brat, Olivia Jenkins when he had the chance.
He finally realized he had severely underestimated Olivia Jenkins.
He genuinely never expected this cunning girl to comprehend those accounts and single out the questionable figures in the subsidiary, Quiet Video.
This calculating girl sitting before him seemed like a different person from the innocent Olivia he had met that day, he could hardly predict her true intentions.
The only thing he was certain of was that she was deliberately targeting him she was out to destroy him.
Henry Charles’ body stiffened, his eyes darkened.
The people in the room were no longer able to stay seated; demanding an explanation from him besides their state of shock.
Olivia Jenkins contemptuously stared at Henry, aggressively saying, “Vice
President Charles, are you feeling guilty? Have you been embezzling funds?”
Internally, Henry warned himself to stay calm – he must not fall for her trap.
Simultaneously, he cast a glance at Hannah Jenkins, insinuating her to stay silent and not get herself involved, to avoid being targeted by Olivia.
“Olivia Jenkins, you’ve stooped to unimaginable lows for the sake of acquiring control over the Jenkins Group.
Before Henry could spout any more excuses, a representative from the shareholders spoke up, “Mr. Charles, you need to account for the losses incurred by Quiet Video. This affects all of our interests; we absolutely cannot ignore this matter. Could it be that you invited Jenkins out to discuss the audit results, which then led to your argument?”
“Aphra never mentioned anything about an audit to me, I was completely in the dark about it since I was in Kyoto. He suddenly started scolding me during our chat. Initially, I ignored him. But his words grew offensive and I responded, and that was all. Don’t just listen to Olivia’s nonsense, she’s just trying to shift the blame onto me to achieve her own ends.”
Even though he continued to defend himself, Olivia’s disdain for him only grew.
Olivia spoke in a sharp and cold tone, “I visited the location of the accident. Someone stated that they indeed saw you both arguing, but they were unclear about the specifics of the dispute. Typically, an internal audit is conducted before a new chairman takes over. Therefore, I have decided to conduct a thorough audit once again.”
Despite the storm of fury boiling within him, hatred for Olivia seeping into every corner of his heart, Henry Charles managed to maintain his composure, “We just conducted an audit, and now you want to run another one. You’re intentionally wasting resources! Olivia, don’t make baseless claims without evidence, especially since you’re still young.”
Olivia laughed, her almond eyes sparkling with a sharp glint, “Is Vice President Charles trying to prevent me from auditing? Are you afraid I might uncover discrepancies in the accounts?”
“You’ve misunderstood me. As a leader of the group, you haven’t considered the group’s interest at all. I’m just reminding you out of kindness.”
“I appreciate Vice President Charles’ reminder, but I remain determined to carry out the audit, both internally within the group and externally through a third-party financial firm. If the audit results from both sides differ, then Vice President Charles and the Chief Financial Officer are in big trouble.”
The representative from the shareholders interjected, “We agree to the dual audit. We cannot accept the Group’s twenty billion in losses. The proposal to add more directors or to remove the chairman of the board will be discussed after the results of the dual audit.
Mrs. Jenkins didn’t voice out any disagreement; she was also in favor of the audit.
Mrs. Jenkins was glancing at Olivia. She had always underestimated this little girl, not once did she expect Olivia to be so adept and cunning..
