Chapter 300: Queen Qiao Showing Off Her Wealth_1 Chapter 300: Queen Qiao Showing Off Her Wealth_1 Elly Campbell glanced at him coldly from the corner of her eye, not picking up on his conversation.
While other shareholders didn’t catch any particular aning in Adam Jones’s recent remarks, Jas Campbell and Sophie Baker, who knew the two were already divorced, clearly picked up on a key piece of information.
What did he an by “before coming out”?
Did they actually stay together last night?
Sophie Baker’s gaze drifted to the bandaged forehead of Adam Jones, then she lowered her eyelids, and darkness filled the bottom of her eyes.
It was at this mont that the secretary’s notified security arrived.
Looking at the bigwigs in the eting room, they exchanged glances, uncertain of what to do for a while.
“CEO Campbell…”
The secretary cautiously looked towards Elly Campbell, a questioning look in their eyes.
Seeing Elly Campbell gesture towards Sophie Baker sitting next to Jas Campbell, she said, “Please escort this lady out.”
“Elly Campbell, what do you think you’re doing? Dad asked to co here. What right do you have to ask to leave!”
Seeing the security guards approach, Sophie Baker beca upset and panicky.
If she were taken out by the security guards, she would beco a laughingstock at Campbell’s in the future. How could she face anyone after that?
“Because I hold thirty-five percent of the shares,”
Elly Campbell raised an eyebrow slightly, her “show-off” pose aggravatingly cocky.
Adam Jones looked at her smug expression, slightly lowered his head, and let out a couple of pleased chuckles, almost like he was deliberately trying to sweet-talk her, moving closer to Elly Campbell.
“If that’s not enough, you can also have the fifteen percent I hold,” he said calmly.
Adam’s comnt exploded in the eting room.
Campbell’s was no small enterprise; fifteen percent of the shares were worth billions. President Jones was truly generous with his wife, willing to give away billions just like that.
Sophie Baker beca even more restless. Billions in shares going to Elly Campbell – had Adam lost his mind?
At this mont, forgetting her pretense of innocence before Adam, she blurted out, “Adam, have you gone mad? These are worth hundreds of billions, how can you just give them away to soone else!”
Sophie Baker’s outburst ca almost without thinking, and Adam Jones’s face imdiately darkened.
Compared to his almost ingratiatingly submissive behavior towards Elly Campbell just monts ago, the look he gave Sophie Baker was like a sharp knife, cutting across her face, making it tremble with pain.
“What I give to my wife is none of your business,” he said, with a cold edge to his voice.
His chilling gaze dropped several degrees colder as he turned to the security guards who were hesitating, “Aren’t you going to take her away?”
“Right away, President Jones.”
Although Miss Baker had been brought in by CEO Campbell, compared to the seemingly casual remark from President Jones, CEO Campbell lacked the sa leverage by tens of thousands of miles.
Even though President Jones was just a nominal shareholder and not in charge, the inherent authority in his presence could not be masked.
“How dare you! Adam, you can’t treat this way, Adam!”
Sophie Baker panicked, her hands gripping the conference room table tightly.
Although the guards heard Adam Jones’s command, with Jas Campbell standing aside, they still had reservations, so they dared not be too rough with Sophie Baker.
Adam Jones’s brows furrowed tighter as he listened to Sophie Baker repeatedly calling out “Adam,” his eyes swiftly pooling with intense impatience.
“Silence.”
A single frosty word ca from him, startling the guards considerably.
No longer hesitating, one of the guards stepped forward, pried Sophie Baker’s fingers from the conference table, and dragged her out of the eting room amid her screams.
