BuzzNovelChapter 57 Cecilia, on the other hand, was fired just because she tried speaking up for Rachel.
The bias was so blatant.
William retracted his gaze, turned around, and pointed at the meeting room.
"Let's go," he said to Rachel.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRachel was in disbelief. “I'm no longer a director of the company. Is it appropriate forto attend such an important meeting?" "No matter. No one will dare say a word witharound." Just like before, William's words somehow managed to put her mind at ease.
Yet, there was something inexplicably different.
Based on what Rachel knew of the shareholders, they would never allow such a major oversight to happen to a project under anyone's hands.
Rachel wanted to see the look on William's face when he found out that the proposal for the rights to manage the project actually cfrom her. Would he regret not giving her oversight of Project Oasis? Had it been in her hands, such a blunder would never have happened.
After entering the meeting room with William, Rachel realized that Samantha was already inside. However, the shareholders were shooting her looks that could kill.
Samantha was probably aware that she was in trouble and kept her head hung low. She was wringing her hands, like a child who knew she had made a mistake.
The shareholders greeted William when they saw him enter the room.
"Mr. Lewis." Samantha heard their greetings and looked up. The moment her gaze landed on William, it was as though she saw her savior. Even the pitch of her voice turned up a notch.
"William..." Rachel coughed softly as a reminder to Samantha. "Ms. Judd, we're in a meeting room, and the shareholders are around. It's more appropriate for you to call him Mr. Lewis instead." Samantha pouted indignantly, looking like a frightened rabbit. She turned her reddened, pleading eyes to William, as if waiting for him to speak up for her.
William tilted his head and said tepidly, "She's just a young lady who's new around here. She might not be used to a meeting of such scale. It's fine, let her be." Rachel fell silent, but a look of derision flashed past her eyes.
Just then, one of the shareholders spoke up.
"Mr. Lewis, Ms. Lloyd isn't wrong to say that. Even as your wife, she doesn't call you by nin the office." "Yes. At work, rules are rules. If everyone starts addressing each other in any way they please, chaos will ensue." "We know you were schoolmates with Ms. Judd, Mr. Lewis, but this is work and there are rules to abide by. If everyone in the company were to follow suit, it'll mess things up." Samantha's face paled as she stared at William in a daze.

After everyone took their seats, they began discussing the right to m manage Project Oasis. "How did Tyler Hunt draw up a proposal to score the management rights so quickly?"
"Why are you bothered about that now? Shouldn't you be thinking about how we allowed him to stick his hands in our pie when the project was scheduled to start two days ago?"
"What else? Ask our new director Ms.
Judd what in the world she's been busy with the past few days!"
