Chapter 494

But Asher still spoke up for Evelina. “I’ll hire a professional CEO to manage the company. Eve will learn from them. There won’t be any issues with the company’s management.”

“Asher, who the CEO is, you don’t get the final say.”

Caspian had finally seen through Asher’s stubbornness, determined to funnel resources into Evelina. Well, he couldn’t blame himself for not being polite anymore.

Asher snorted coldly. “I’m the majority shareholder; how does my word not count?”

“From today, you’re no longer the majority shareholder.”

At that moment, Lucian appeared in his wheelchair. He also looked quite unwell and said directly, “Caspian and I can transfer our shares to Lemira. Then, she’ll be the company’s majority shareholder.”

The room was filled with murmurs of surprise. Hearing this, Asher’s face changed color. He lowered his voice. “What exactly are you trying to do?”

Asher really hadn’t expected them to band together against him!

Lucian continued, “Asher, are you sure you want to discuss this here? The only person who will be embarrassed is you.”

Asher nodded and, with a cold face, went to the lounge.

Lemira was also surprised to see Lucian. Wasn’t he supposed to be held captive by Asher?

Caspian addressed everyone present. “I’m sorry for the spectacle, but the company will be managed by Lemira from now on. You’ve all seen her scriptwriting talent. I hope we can collaborate in the future.”

Hearing Caspian say this, Evelina also stormed off after Asher. Lemira, Caspian, and Lucian moved aside. She looked at Lucian with some surprise. “How did you get here?”

“Caspian sent someone to find me. I came as soon as I could. No matter what, the company can’t fall into Evelina’s hands.”

Lucian knew the company was Caspian’s life’s work, but he hadn’t expected Asher to be so biased.

Caspian smiled wryly. “We all underestimated Evelina’s cunning.”

Lucian turned to Lemira, his tone cautious. “Lemmy, don’t worry, I’ll always be on your side.”

Lemira didn’t respond and turned towards the lounge. Caspian, pushing Lucian, followed her.

In the lounge, Lemira was the first to enter and saw Evelina whispering something to Asher. Upon her arrival, Asher looked at her as if he could devour her.

Asher, furious, confronted Lemira. “Lemira, I really didn’t expect you to be so capable. You said you were leaving home, cutting ties with the Langston family, and now you’re back to fight for the inheritance? Have you no shame?”

“And you knew the script was all my work, yet you wanted to credit Evelina for it. Have you no shame?”

Asher choked for a moment. “But Eve contributed to the script as well. How can you say in front of all these people that she’s just riding on your coattails?”

“Do you dare swear on that? If it’s false, may the company go bankrupt, every project fail, and you end up destitute.”

After Lemira spoke, she stared at Asher. “Go on, swear. No? You don’t dare?”

Asher didn’t open his mouth, angrily retorting, “Superstition!”

“It seems even if it’s superstition, you don’t dare swear. That means you know exactly what you’re doing.”

Asher did this on purpose, trying to take her work and force her into submission.

Asher turned it around. “Lemira, if you hadn’t pushed the Langston family to this point, would I have done this?” “So, I learned it from you.”

Lemira raised her head, laughing. “Now I’m the company’s largest shareholder. Your word doesn’t count!”

Asher was instantly furious.
