The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1059

After all, Helen could have all of the entire board jailed if she willed it.

They were all scowling—they certainly had no idea how Helen got her hands on the evidence against them, with every last bit of detail included. All they could do was to blame Owen now.

In the first place, they were supposed to assert their authority over Helen as she took on her new position.

Instead, she turned the tables and revealed all the dirt she had on them. She was clearly more than just a pretty face—she was a fighter who could throw a punch.

"Either way, I'm done." Helen shrugged just then. "You can all leave now, and I won't stop anyone here or plead for you to stay like you hope for. Instead, these documents will be publicized, and I will call for a shareholders' meeting where we will decide your respective replacements. You will all pay for your stupidity."

Her blunt words finally made them understand, and Mr. King—who had been insulting Helen in every way possible earlier—dropped to his knees with a thud.

"M-Ms. Lane! Please, anything but that!" he begged. "I promise… I'd never do it again! I will forfeit all my stocks and leave Lane Holdings. Just don't present those documents! I still have a family to feed!"

Helen stayed impassive despite the man's tearful pleas, saying nothing.

Thud!

Then, Mr. Zock was on his knees too. "I-I apologize for my rudeness before too. Please, I'll say yes to anything. Just don't publicize those documents! I'll never do it again!"

"What…"

"Traitors… spineless wimps!" he howled.

But to everyone else, it was just the sad yapping of the defeated. There was no authority to it whatsoever.

The board members were no fools—Helen already proved that she was capable enough to dig out their dirty laundry. Even if Kallum vowed that he would kill Helen, would she really be unprepared against him?

She simply did not fear Kallum. After all, she was now the head of the Lane family, and if Kallum really wanted to get tough with her, he would fall short.

And judging from Helen's performance, she was an iron lady despite her pretty face.
