Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 295 Infuriating Stephen Dayton

Bam!

When Sydney saw those comments as well as Lyra's triumphant face, she clenched her fist and slammed it on the table.

Julien held her wrist.

"What are you doing?" Sydney subconsciously drew her hand back and looked at him warily.

Julien felt a little upset to see how wary she was of him. He lowered his eyes and said, "I wanted to see if your hand was hurt.

"I just knocked it a little. How could it get hurt? You're looking down on me too much, " Sydney withdrew her gaze and responded insipidly.

He hummed. "That's good. Don't do that again even if you get angry in the future. You'll hurt yourself."

"I know. I don't need you to remind me." Sydney pursed her red lips.

Julien withdrew his hand and was just about to say something when someone pushed the door in. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Stephen marched in angrily. "Sydney, you want to delist the company?"

He glared at Sydney, completely ignoring Julien beside her.

Sydney turned off Lyra's live broadcast.

Lyra already told the audience how and why she schemed against her.

There was naturally no need to watch the rest of the broadcast.

"Yes. Sophie should’ve made things very clear, yes?" Sydney let go of the mouse and looked up coldly at Stephen.

Stephen slapped her desk. "Do you think you can decide something like delisting the company on your own?"

"Of course, I can!" Sydney stood up." Because I'm the largest shareholder of Skylight Corporation!"

A trace of admiration flashed in Julien's eyes when he saw how dashing Sydney was.

"You..." Stephen's anger stuck in his throat. He forcefully swallowed back the words he was about to say and took a long time to recover. "Yes, you're Skylight's largest shareholder, but don't forget that I'm the president. You're just a vice president!" "So what?" Sydney crossed her arms in an imposing manner, not revealing any hint of weakness. "President Dayton, you should be thankful that you're an elder in Skylight and that half of the people in the company support you. Otherwise, as the largest shareholder, nothing is stopping me from convening a shareholders' meeting and taking back the other half of the management power in your hands to become the real chairman."

After all, the person who held the most shares in a company held the final say in that company.

However, since she did not have that many people under her, she did not dare to go head-to-head with Stephen. If he left Skylight in a fit of anger and took away a portion of the people who supported him, Skylight would end up collapsing.

That was because the current Skylight simply could not recruit talents to fill the positions of those under Stephen. That was why she had been holding back. It was why she was willing to only be the vice president despite clearly holding the most shares.

Stephen knew that was what she was afraid of, which was why he did not care that she was Skylight's largest shareholder.

"Oh? You'll convene a shareholder's meeting and take back the management right in my hands? " Stephen laughed disdainfully as if he had heard a big joke." Are you going to do that? Aren't you afraid that I'll take those people under me to another company? You know that the people in my hands are all the talents Skylight has. Once they leave, Skylight will be finished. Do you dare to do that?"

Sydney clenched her fists. Just as she was about to answer, a clear, cool, and oppressive male voice sounded. "Why wouldn't she dare?"

She immediately turned around and looked at Julien in shock.

Stephen also looked over in dissatisfaction. "This is a matter between Vice President Raines and me. Why is a little assistant like you suddenly... President Flint?"

His voice instantly climbed an octave as he looked at Julien in disbelief.

He already saw a person beside Sydney when he came in, but he thought that it was just an assistant. He did not bother to see what the person looked like because he was in a hurry to question Sydney.

Who would have thought the "assistant" was the president of Flint Corporation, Julien Flint?

Stephen looked at Julien in shock." President Flint, w...what are you doing here?"

He pointed at Julien and then at Sydney. " You two... You..."

"I came here to talk about business matters with Vice President Raines. Don't forget that we're working together on the new energy project," Julien's eyes flickered slightly as he replied indifferently.

He could not say that he came here because he was worried about her.

He knew that if he said that, she would be unhappy.

Sydney raised her brows.

Although she was surprised that Julien lied, she did not expose him.

She played along.

"I see." Stephen did not suspect it either.

After all, everyone in the circle knew that Julien did not love his ex-wife. That was why he divorced her.

Thus, he must have come here for business. There was no way he came here for Sydney.

"So, um... President Flint, did you...?"

"I heard your conversation," Julien lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice, "If you want to take your men and leave Skylight, you can leave now."

"What?" Stephen could not believe what he heard and widened his eyes. "President Flint, this is Skylight’s business. It's not good if you interfere, right?"

He did not intend to leave Skylight.

He was just saying that to threaten Sydney.

Why did Julien take it seriously?

"Why not? Half of Skylight's industries were only resurrected thanks to Flint Corporation. Besides, Vice President Raines also has a new energy cooperation project with me. Thus, as Skylight's

largest partner, I think I should have the privilege to participate in Skylight's internal struggle, right?" Julien stared at Stephen with deep eyes.

Stephen's mouth opened. "That's true, but..."

"Then, what's the problem?" Julien interrupted him again. "These collaborations were signed by Vice President Raines and me. Since you want to leave Skylight with your men, it'll affect the cooperation between Skylight and Flint Corporation. In that case, I naturally have to stand on Vice President Raines' side." As he said that, he looked at Sydney with a serious gaze. "Don't worry, Vice President Raines. Once President Dayton leaves, I’ll immediately send a group of professionals to help you stabilize the vacant positions. Skylight won't face any problems."

"What?" Stephen's mind went blank with shock.

Sydney also looked at him in surprise. "Are you serious?"

Julien nodded. "Of course. I won't lie to you. As for President Dayton..."

He turned his gaze back to Stephen. "Since you're taking away so many talents, I think that it's a bit of a waste if you join another company. It's better if you create a company of your own. I believe that with so many talents, your company will develop quickly. I'll talk to the companies and tell them not to take you in, so as to not delay your business. What do you think, President Dayton?"

"Pfft..." Sydney could not help but cover her lips. She turned her head away as her shoulders shook with laughter.

Stephen trembled with anger, but he did not dare to vent it at Julien. He could only clench his fists tightly and desperately suppress his fury.

'What do I think?

'I think it’s not good at all!

'What do you mean you'll tell the companies not to take us in? You're clearly banning us from the industry.

'You want me to start my own business?

'At my age, with this amount of money, how am I supposed to start a business?! 'It's clear that he's deliberately humiliating me and making things hard for me!'

Although Stephen's heart was furious, on the surface, he still forced a smile. "You sure know how to joke, President Flint. What kind of business can I start at my age?"

"Oh? Do you mean that you don't plan on taking people away from Skylight?" Julien gave him a side glance.

Stephen cleared his throat. "Of course, not. I was just joking with Vice President Raines. I wasn't serious."

How would he dare to take people away?
