Chapter 381 - Ruthless CEO... Ice queen is back.
Their stock price is dropping.....
Jean halted on her steps and frowned confusingly. This is the first time her stock prices have dropped since two years.
Scott who is walking ahead of her turned back as he didn’t listen her steps following his. Hope who followed his suite gulped down her saliva and couldn’t help but shiver due to the sudden drop in temperature around her.
Jean’s eyes are scorching fierce and she looked too scary with a ’someone is going to suffer’ look plastered on her face. She is not at all a same blushing and shy woman she have seen a few moments back. A deathly and chilly aura is emanating from Jean and that sent shivers down her spine.
"What happened" Hope stuttered as she asked Scott.
"Hmm....might be some big problem in her company. Hope, don’t get scared after seeing this new version of Jean alright" Scott said and walked to Jean.
"My stock price have dropped by one percent few minutes back. It stopped now but according to my financial department there are high chances that it might continue with adverse rate" Jean told in her cold voice.
"You think Hermes are doing this?" Scott asked.
"Might be not. They are powerless in country X" Jean wriggled her brows and she narrowed her eyes as her brain started analyzing the reasons for it.
"But how did it happen" Scott couldn’t help but ask her. Practically this is impossible until unless someone are helping from inside.
"Might be a mole" Jean said and took deep breath.
"OK....Scott, you drop Hope at her hospital and you go back to the main base, Iris or Rick will be waiting for you. Just start digging about this Johann and I will join you after I solve this problem" Jean said as she already started planning her next actions.
As they dared to go against her, she will show them how deathly she is. Her INA is not easy to get bullied by some unethical people like that.....despite of how influential and powerful they are.
Scott kissed her forehead and said. "Don’t worry about it honey we will take care of that. You just go...." Scott is about to encourage her when Hope rushed towards them.
"Jean, Rick wanted to meet you and Scott now itself. He said he have to tell you something related to this. It’s urgent" she panted.
She nodded and called her PS. "I will be coming within one hour. Ask all the board members and directors to assemble for the meeting. I need perfect report why this happened. If I find even any slightest bit of tampering, warn them that there will be thorough checking in all their departments this day itself"
"If my suspicion is right, then they have to answer me who bribed them to do this. And Lan warn them again, I will not leave any of the suspects without destroying their careers.
I was also giving them a last chance to confess....the time is one hour" Jean’s menacing and ominous voice made Hope shiver again.
She is indeed too scary....she is not the sweet and teasing sister like she is always...
As they boarded the car, Jean started typing some long codes in her laptop and her face started to darken....the hell! She couldn’t track anything related to it.
"Evan is not here and Helen is coming now. He is not even answering my calls" Jean frowned. Evan took a month holiday as Jean is back to country X.
He said he is going into Amazon with his girlfriend and her team to have some dangerous fun.
...
Enrick is waiting for them in front of Hope’s condo and he is in very bad mood.
As they settled inside, Hope went into kitchen to prepare some coffee for everyone while Enrick gave Jean a file.
"It is Hermes how are doing this Jean. At first they tried to buy some shares but the shareholders are very loyal to you and they declined....so they were using this method" he explained.
"But Hermes are powerless here right. How on the earth can they do this when INA’S main headquarters is here" Jean frowned.
"Jean, Wrights are subfamily of Braxton’s....and Braxton’s have power in almost all this six countries. We can’t even tell from which company they started attacking you" Rick explained.
Jean gritted her teeth. She literally wanted to wipe away that family who are practically invincible and are way top in the food chain.
"But why. When did INA offend that jerks?" Jean slammed her delicate hand on to glass table.
"Jean, this is nothing much. They wanted to check if you are anyway connected to us, Richards. That Braxton’s hate us and they wanted to make sure you are not council member." Rick said.
"Rick, if something happens I will surely not leave this issue intact." Jean clenched her fists.
"Jean, they will of course cause many problems and the main reason is they want to see if Richards will help you or not. But even without our help you can stop this" Enrick encouraged.
"What is the rift you have with Braxton’s. Is this any way related to council" Scott asked as he just ended his call.
"Yes, they hate Richards. It is because they think we killed their young master who is the heir crowned to become next successor of the Braxton’s family. From then Elder Wright aka Elder Braxton hate us to our death. His younger son is waiting for the right time to strike the council" Enrick explained.
Scott didn’t expect this. "But they didn’t harm you" Scott mocked.
"Scott, my mother is the daughter of Braxton’s family. They also think council killed her" Enrick smiled sadly.
"But your mother is also a council member" Jean’s shocking voice trailed off.
Enrick nodded. ’She died saving your mother’ he wanted to tell but he knew it is not a right time.
