Chapter 434
Eighteen shareholders, including Liam, voted in favor of dismissing the managers, and they accounted for forty–five percent of the shares. On the other hand, only four shareholders, including Silvia and Neil, opposed the dismissal, with their combined shares totaling twenty- five percent.
Liam looked at Silvia and Neil with ridicule. “Now that the results are out, do you still have any objections?”
Silvia calmly dialed a number and said, “Mr. Remus, don’t forget that one shareholder still hasn’t voted.”
Liam suddenly had a bad feeling. “Grandma isn’t present, so her vote is forfeited,” he said. coldly.
She smiled. “I recall proxy voting is allowed, isn’t it?”
He found her smile annoying. He tried his best to suppress his anger, but he still glared at her. menacingly.
Soon, the call connected.
“Winston, is Madam Remus awake? I have something to tell her. Could you pass her the phone?”
“Sure.”
Winston handed the phone to Abalene. Her face lit up with anticipation when she heard that it was a call from Silvia.
“Silvia, I wanted to call you as soon as I woke up, but I couldn’t speak at that time. My throat just recovered a few days ago.”
“I see. By the way, I have something to tell you, Madam Remus.”
Silvia briefed her on Liam’s decision to dismiss several of Remus Corporation’s managers. Abalene was furious to learn about this, and she immediately asked Silvia to vote against their dismissal on her behalf.
After she consoled Abalene, Silvia ended the call.
“I believe everyone here heard what Madam Remus said. With her shares, the current opposition to the dismissals should constitute fifty–five percent. I hope I’m not miscalculating.
Liam sneered and rose from his seat.
“Neil, Silvia, don’t think that your current will have an impact on me. I’ll make you pay for this!”
With that, Liam left in a huff.
Back in his office, he dialed someone’s number and angrily asked, “Did you give me fake poison? Why is that old hag still alive?!
The
person who had given him the poison assured him that once the dosage reached a certain

level, Abalene would die within a week.
When Silvia returned to Ryoln City alone, Liam assumed that Abalene had died. He believed that Silvia and Neil intentionally hid the truth to get Remus Corporation back from him.
To his surprise, not only was Abalene still alive, but she had seemingly recovered!
“I’m sure there’s nothing wrong with my poison. You must have not put enough of it.”
After that, the person hung up and refused to answer when Liam called back.
In a fit of rage, Liam threw his phone on the floor and swiped all the documents off the table. His gaze was menacing.
When Silvia and Neil went downstairs and told those managers that they could stay at the company, they could not contain their excitement.
Although they could certainly secure a job outside Remus Corporation with their skills, their salary would not be as high. Besides, they had worked for the company for at least five years so they were emotionally attached to it and reluctant to leave.
“Mr. Remus, Miss Pond, thank you!”
Neil remained calm as he said, “Alright. You all should get back to work.”

Once Silvia and Neil were the only ones left, Silvia lowered her gaze and said, “Mr. Remus, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back”
As she turned to leave, Neil grabbed her wrist.
“Silvia, I’m sorry. I thought about it all night and finally understood why you were so determined to break up. I’ve caused you a lot of pain, and I’m really sorry.”
Silvia froze. After a while, she said, “It’s okay. That’s all in the past.”
His gaze dimmed slightly, and he said, “I won’t give up on this relationship.”
She silently shook his hand off and left without looking back.
While Silvia was on the way back to her mansion, Isla gave her a call and invited her out for dinner.
It was already past 7 p.m. when she reached the restaurant.
