No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 1904

Julia had always despised those who fawned over the rich and powerful, and that was only made worse when she learned about Paul's intention to take advantage of others' misfortunes. Within seconds, her expression turned grim as she gave Paul a side-eye.

“If I don't show up soon, my granddaughter-in-law's company and assets will fall into the hands of others, and my granddaughter will be tossed out like garbage!” she scoffed, words dripping with sarcasm.

It was only then that everyone came to know of Bella's true identity.

Huh? She's Gareth's sister?

Everyone turned around in shocked disbelief, only to see that Bella had moved to stand behind Julia.

Julia's appearance, without a doubt, had given her a boost of strength and confidence.

Paul, however, was visibly displeased.

Argh! I don't understand why it's so hard to seize power even when Elisa is gone.

After careful consideration, Paul spoke up. “Madam Smith, I'm addressing you as such out of respect. However, with regards to matters that aren't within your purview... I'd appreciate it if you could refrain from interfering.”

Julia merely let out a cold sneer. After all, she had braved and fought through various storms in her lifetime, so why would she be scared off by a few words from Paul?

As she swept her gaze around the room, some people hung their heads low, not daring to make eye contact with her.

“Let me repeat myself. Benett Corporation is my granddaughter-in-law's company, and I'm taking charge of it from today onward!”

Upon hearing those words, Paul gave a violent shudder. He felt helpless about the situation, but at the same time, he refused to accept his fate.

As much as he hated to admit it, he couldn't shake off the nagging feeling of dread.

The next second, Julia began to use both coercion and bribery.

Her face wore a kindly smile that never changed over the years, but in that instant, there was malice behind it.

“Ladies and gentlemen, do you prefer to hold the shareholders meeting as scheduled or bring it forward?” she asked, smiling like a harmless, friendly old lady from next door.

However, it was clear that she wasn't giving anyone much choice.

“Sorry, Mr. Grayson. My mother is in the hospital. I need to go see her.”

Interestingly enough, the shareholders who were originally free were suddenly busy.

It had only been half an hour since Julia entered the conference room, and now, it was almost empty.

The only ones who remained were Paul, his face filled with indignance as he wished he could bite Julia to death, and Rochelle, seething with jealousy.

Julia gazed around the empty conference room and picked up her bag with satisfaction. Before leaving, she turned to Paul, who looked utterly miserable and defeated. “Mr. Grayson, the wages of sin is death. It's better to stop coveting other people's things and keep your feet on the ground. After all, what doesn't belong to you will never be yours.”

Paul clenched his jaws tightly, so angry that he could almost crush his teeth.

“Do you think you've won?” he spat out as he glared at Julia. “Let's see what other excuses you have when Elisa doesn't return after three days!”

Julia's steps faltered ever so slightly, but soon, she recovered and strutted off.
