Volume 1: Text_Chapter 696 Adele's Unexpected Decision

Adele is also very good at seizing the opportunity, seeing this, strode forward and walked towards the chairman's seat.

The most hands-on position at the board table...... This was originally the place where Adele saw her father usually sitting.

After the Carlton Syndicate's upheaval, Basil took the position. Now, Basil is hiding behind this chair.

Seeing Adele approaching, for a moment, a fierce glint flashed in Basil's eyes.

If he takes the opportunity to make a move and captures Adele as a hostage, can he turn the tables?

However, the thought only passed on to him, and Basil quickly dispelled it.

Adele was very calm...... It's too calm.

Moreover, that Xia Guoren, as well as those bodyguards who just rushed up...... It seems to be someone from Smith's squad!

Basil knows Captain Smith.

These people are too calm.

Basil didn't think that these people would make such a big mistake.

It can only show that people are confident and are not afraid of Miss Adele being held hostage......

Now, looking at the other party's attitude, it seems that he will not kill him, and Basil has saved his life no matter what.

But if he fails, I'm afraid he will die a miserable death.

Thinking like this, the courage in Basil's heart suddenly dissipated.

Then, when he turned his head, he saw that Xia Guoren was looking at him with a playful gaze.

Basil felt a chill in his back, and he was glad in his heart.

Sure enough, people are really confident! I'm just watching a play!

If he does it, I really don't know what will happen!

Adele has already sat down in the chairman's seat.

In the end, I have been exposed to it since I was a child, plus a good family education...... Although she didn't think about succession, as the only daughter of the chairman, her father has been training him as a successor.

Therefore, Adele sits in this position, not at a loss, and the temperament she should have is still there.

"Uncle Basil, please be seated!"

Just when Basil was worried and thinking about what Adele would do with him, he heard Adele speak, and his tone was very gentle.

Basil was stunned and looked up at Adele, a little unable to believe his ears.

In his expectation, he planned to kill Adele, and now that Adele is in power, even if he doesn't kill him, he will definitely not have his good fruit to eat!

But now to speak to him in such a gentle tone, to call him Uncle Basil, and to very politely invite him to sit down?

You know, when Adele just entered the door just now, Basil seemed to be in a strong position, and Adele didn't call him uncle!

Now, when it was supposed to be the time to settle accounts with him, would you be so polite to him?

"Uncle Basil, please sit!"

Adele turned around and gave an order to one of the members of Smith's team. The tone is natural, and there is a natural momentum of the superior.

"Yes, Miss Adele!"

The team member agreed, pulled out a chair, stretched out his hand, and motioned to Basil:

"Mr. Basil, please!"

"Adele, what the hell are you doing?" Basil asked, unable to hold back, "I admit it, I lost!

I am also a major shareholder in the Carlton Group. If you kill me, you'll be in big trouble too. Now, the Carlton Group is already in trouble, and I don't think you want to cause trouble for no reason, right?

"Let me go...... When I leave Citi, I can transfer the shares to you...... I just need to get the money at the current price of the stock, and I don't need you to pay more!"

Basil showed his hole cards.

His words are very tempting.

Because the big boss of Carlton suddenly crashed and died in a plane crash, the stock price of the group was greatly affected, and it just fell sharply.

Now the price of the group's shares is very low.

And a major shareholder like Basil, he has a large share of the stock in his hand. Generally speaking, if someone wants to buy his shares, they do so at a premium.

The specific premium needs to be negotiated. However, to double the premium, that's for sure.

Because no matter who gets such a large share of the stock, they can already directly enter the board of directors, which can play a certain role in the company's decision-making, and have the right to speak, the meaning is different.

Basilken is already rare to sell the stock in his hand at the current market price.

He didn't believe Adele would be able to refuse.

There was a sinister glint in Basil's eyes...... He swore in his heart.

If he could have fooled Adele into escaping, he would have sold the stock...... However, it is definitely not sold to Adele.

Basil no longer expects to keep his shares.

Adele is in power, and she will definitely not spare him.

However, he couldn't make Adele feel better either.

He's going to sell his shares to his rivals, and he's going to make things worse for Adele......

"Hehe!" but Adele laughed, "Uncle Basil, you misunderstood, how could I kill you?" There may be some disputes between us, but we are all members of the Carlton Group.

For as long as I can remember, Uncle Basil has been by my father's side, and he often talks about Uncle Basil's contribution to the group.

Without you, Uncle Basil, the Carlton Group would not be where it is today. I know that Uncle Basil must have done some of your excesses for the sake of the Carlton Group.

How could I possibly deprive Uncle Basil of your shares? I will not hurt you, Uncle Basil! I can assure you that the shares in your hands, Uncle Basil, will always be yours.

In addition, I would like to propose to the Board of Directors that you be appointed Uncle Basil as Chairman of the Board of Supervisors. ”

Wow –

When Adele said this, the entire conference room suddenly exploded.

The directors, one by one, looked at each other and were shocked.

"What? I heard you right? Adele didn't take revenge on Basil, didn't take away Basil's shares, and appointed Basil as the chairman of the company's supervisory committee?"

Basil is the second largest shareholder of the company, and if he becomes the chairman of the board of supervisors again, even if Adele wants to deprive him of his shares, I'm afraid it won't be so easy!"

"Adele is so atmospheric?"

"What a surprise!"

"So, isn't it possible that Adele will not hold us accountable?"

"Yes, we all made the mistake of following Basil. If Miss Adele can even forgive Basil, she will surely be able to forgive us!"
