My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 389

Chapter 389: You’re All Fired!
Instantly, almost everyone in the room was stunned when they heard Bella’s words.

However, Lucas Donovan almost fainted upon learning that Bella represented Camellia Capital, the largest shareholder in the Donovan Group.

“Bella, owning Camellia Capital? No, does she own the Donovan Group now? How did it happen?” Lucas’ eyes widened as he stared at his daughter. It was still hard for him to fathom all of this.

His mind started to fill with countless questions he wanted to ask her. But, not a single word could escape his lips for some unknown reason.

‘Did Bella buy Donovan Group shares using her alimony from her ex-husband?’ Lucas muttered.

A smile slowly appeared on his lips a moment later.

‘That’s it! She definitely used her alimony money to buy company shares. But why would she buy this company? Did she know that this company has so many problems? On the verge of bankruptcy?’

Lucas attempted to ask her, but his words failed him again when he saw Bella still ignoring him. He felt frustrated, but he couldn’t say anything. He thought he deserved her silent treatment.

By this point, Lucas has concluded that his daughter must know what exactly happened to her mother. That must be the main reason she despises him so much.

‘Sigh! How stupid are you, Lucas Donovan? How could you ruin your own life? How could you choose a son over a daughter? So stupid!’ Lucas could only vent his frustration inwardly.

His hand clenched into a tight fist as he lowered his gaze, hearing his daughter speaking.

“Ladies and gentlemen,” Bella smiled, looking at each one before continuing. “Thank you for attending this voting event. Since the agenda has been completed, this meeting is over.”

Bella said calmly, but her words surprised almost everyone, causing protests from several shareholders who sided with Jacob Donovan.

“What? Is it finished? Don’t we need to choose the new CEO?”

“Yes. Why did you dismiss this meeting before we finished?”

“Miss Donovan, I know the company acquisition is new to you. And that’s why I’d like to advise you that this company you acquired needs a new CEO.”

“I agree. When the media knows Donovan Group doesn’t have a CEO, they might troll us again, undermining every effort to stabilize the company. And eventually, the company stock price will sharply fall, even it will become worthless!”

“So true!”

“Yes—”

Bella looked at the three men, who had only a tiny share in the company and were her uncle’s strong allies; she stifled a laugh upon hearing their words.

“Young miss, why are you laughing at us?” one of the middle-aged men asked in anger.

Another man gritted his teeth as he looked at Jacob Donovan, “Jacob! You need to teach your niece. She lacks manners and the experience to take over this company.”

“Yes, Jacob! You can’t let her take over this company, or in a week, we migh close down!”

While a few people started talking nonsense about Bella, Harper, sitting beside Bella, leaned closer to her.

“Girl, no wonder you ran away from your family; they are all now sitting in the lowest chain of stupidity.” Harper couldn’t hold back anymore from expressing her annoyance.

Bella glanced at Harper and smiled, “Yeah. My uncles and father are already stupid, but they’re also friends with those people. Gosh!! How stupid!”

“I know, right? How can they run this company with such narrow-minded people? Hurry up and end this meeting, Bella. Otherwise, I might just drag them out and throw them out of the window,” Harper said casually, but her sinister gaze betrayed her. She was really offended hearing those old geezers talk wrong about her best friend.

“Don’t dirty your pretty hands, Lady Harper,” Bella chuckled. “No worries, I will handle them.”

“I’m looking forward to it!” Harper replied before sitting up straight and waiting for the drama to unfold before her eyes.

Bella didn’t answer Harper; she just smiled and nodded slightly at her. Then, she turned to the three people still talking badly about her.

She is not a Buddha who can contain her anger; she is only a human who can also be angry.

“Mr. Layman, Mr. Hill, and Mr. Steward,” Bella called the three of them with her icy tone, silencing the three middle-aged men.

When she saw the three men now paying attention to her, with frowns on their foreheads, she smiled at them before asking, “Are you involved in management?”

The three of them exchanged glances before responding to Bella in proud voices.

“Of course we are!” Layman said, sitting straight as he introduced himself and his position in the company.

Bella said nothing but turned her gaze to the next person, who introduced himself and his position in the company.

After the three of them announced their positions, Layman asked, “Why do you want to know our positions?”

She didn’t answer Layman’s question but said, “Gentlemen, thank you for your hard work to help this company. From now on, we no longer need you in this company. Go to your office and pack your things… You’re all fired!”

Suddenly, the room became noisy, and everyone was shocked to hear that Bella had casually fired three company directors.

Three people stood up from their seats and pointed their fingers at Bella, shouting:

“WHAT THE HELL! WHO ARE YOU TO FIRE ME?”

“ARE YOU CRAZY? YOU CAN’T FIRE ME!”

“WHAT A STUPID LITTLE MISSY!”

Despite the outburst, Bella remained calm. She understood their anger – they must have been shocked to be unexpectedly removed from their positions.

Bella didn’t rush to answer them but smiled before responding, “Who am I?” she asked.

The three of them didn’t answer her, only narrowed their gaze in annoyance and gave her a slight nod.

She chuckled, “Oh, gentlemen, you seem to have short memories now. I told you before, right? I’m the biggest shareholder in this company and have the right to fire you.”

The three of them were rendered speechless. How dare this young woman talk to them like that? And even have the audacity to fire them? They still can’t believe it!

“And, just to let you know, in case you miss or forget… I have the right to fire all of you without full benefit,” Bella continued when she noticed them showing their angry faces without saying a word.
