Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 505

Soon, Lindsey raised her head again. Before Quentin could say anything, she said, "It doesn't matter if Zayn knows or not. I don't know why you can’t change the way you address me, but Quentin, if you keep calling me Madam, it’s very awkward for me, especially like this."

Lindsey was not angry and calmly said all this to Quentin, but Quentin suddenly felt that this had deeply hurt her.

Whenever they addressed Lindsey as Madam, they were just satisfying Zayn’s hidden desire, but for Lindsey, they were adding salt to her wound.

This reminded her time and time again that she had nothing to do with Zayn anymore, yet they still called her Madam. Were they mocking her?

Quentin looked at Lindsey and nodded solemnly. "Okay, Ms. Juhl."

Lindsey laughed and looked so gentle. "There’s no need to be so polite. Just call me Lindsey since we’re so close anyway."

After saying that, she walked towards the conference room. The meeting was about to start.

Quentin took a deep breath and thought, ‘I wouldn't dare to call you by your first name. Otherwise, someone will get pissed again.’

He also had to attend the shareholders meeting, so he caught up with Lindsey and the two of them walked into the Denarius conference room one after the other.

Almost as soon as Lindsey stepped in, all eyes in the room fell on her.

The several major shareholders knew that Lindsey held a lot of shares, but some of the remaining small shareholders were not aware of it. When they saw Lindsey, they were still a bit surprised.

Zayn was already there, sitting in the main chair. There was another empty chair next to him. At this time, he was also looking at Lindsey.

Lindsey glanced at Zayn and ignored the various expressions on the shareholders’ faces, then took a seat on the empty chair next to Zayn.

After Zayn looked at her, he quickly withdrew his gaze like it never happened. His fingers under the table gently clenched into fists, but no one saw it.

When Lindsey sat down, her unique scent filled his nasal cavity.

Quentin stood behind Zayn. No matter how many shares he held in the company, he would always be Zayn’s personal assistant.

After a pause, Zayn swept a glance at the people present before he slowly spoke, “Soren is abroad and can't come back for the time being. Since everyone else is here, we can start the meeting.”

He then gently waved his hand. Quentin got the signal and started the presentation that he had prepared long ago.

The corner of Zayn’s eyes was focused on Lindsey.

To understand what Quentin was saying, Lindsey concentrated on the Powerpoint slides, so Zayn could only see her delicate contoured side profile.

The weather was getting colder. Lindsey was wearing a black knee-length wrap dress that outlined her curves well and did not wear any other accessories besides a light jacket.

Her long hair was pulled to the back, revealing her fair forehead and long neck.

Zayn was so immersed in looking at her that it suddenly dawned on him that he had not looked at her up close in such a long time.

"I think that we can think of a better way." Lindsey looked straight at Zayn, attempting to convince him. "A merger of two companies isn’t a trivial matter, Mr. Guggenheim. It’s better to err on the side of caution."

The two of them looked at each other for a long time. Finally, it was Zayn who turned his gaze away first and looked at the others. "This is the main purpose of this shareholders meeting. I’ve voiced out my idea, so everyone can vote and decide whether to merge with S.P. Corporation."

This meant that Zayn had dismissed Lindsey's opinion.

Strangely enough, Lindsey was still quite calm at this point.

Lindsey looked at Zayn’s side profile. She was indignant about the merger of Denarius and S.P. Corporation because she did not want Zayn's hard work to go to waste.

Since Zayn himself did not care, why should she care?

Lindsey was a little out of it as she thought of that, but during the vote, she still disagreed with the merger.

The voting results came out quickly. Quentin was very efficient. The results were quickly tallied and laid out in front of the shareholders.

Lindsey and Dezi's shares were enough to compete with Zayn's, Quentin's, and Soren's combined.

The rest of the small shareholders only added up to a small percentage, which at first glance did not seem like it had a big impact, but Lindsey was still surprised to see the results.

The number of people who affirmed Zayn's decision was far greater than those who denied it. Most people were willing to trust Zayn's judgment and had confidence in Zayn's leadership, so they followed Zayn's footsteps without objection.
