A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 606 - 606

"Cadence, are you crazy? I'm the primary shareholder of Pangaea Group. Removing me, are you joking?"

Upon hearing this news.

Elroy Hayes wasn't panicked at all.

Instead, he sneered disdainfully.

Cadence Grant put down the folder and said, "Mr. Hayes, I'm sorry, but you are no longer the primary director of Pangaea Group. Miss Dorothy Zechariah is!"

"Impossible, how could that be? Even if she bought all the shares from retail investors on the market, it's not possible. I hold 21%, no way she could surpass me?"

In Elroy Hayes's view.

This was as outrageous as a fairy tale.

"Oh really? What if I acquired the institutional shares?"

Asked Dorothy Zechariah.

"Ha, just you? You think those institutions would sell to you at such low prices?"

Elroy Hayes inquired.

Dorothy turned around, took some documents from an aide.

And directly tossed them into Elroy Hayes's chest.

Elroy took the documents and upon looking at them, was instantly dumbfounded.

Several investment institutions of Pangaea Group had indeed sold their shares at extremely low prices to Dorothy Zechariah, and now, she controlled 29% of Pangaea Group's shares, making her, in a way, the largest shareholder.

Not only that.

The board's ability to make such a decision also indicated that she had control over the board.

Thinking of this.

Elroy Hayes's smug expression suddenly vanished.

He muttered, "Impossible, impossible, this can't be, why would they sell the shares to you?"

Indeed.

Originally, this seemed impossible.

But with Yara Hughes involved, it all changed.

Businesspeople value profit above all else; if they can earn more elsewhere, Pangaea Group's shares become irrelevant.

"Mr. Hayes, you're getting old, perhaps it's time to take a good rest."

Dorothy Zechariah said with a smile.

Elroy Hayes raised his finger at Dorothy, saying, "You... you're so vicious, you... you secretly swallowed my company... Pangaea Group is my company, I built it with my own hands!"

"Right back at you, didn't your Hayes Family want to swallow Stansen Group? An eye for an eye, don't worry, once Pangaea Group enters the Zechariah Family, it won't suffer, just that from now on, its name changes from Hayes to Zechariah."

A lifetime's effort was thus handed over.

At this moment, Elroy Hayes also felt the same sting.

He staggered a few steps, nearly collapsing to the ground.

After taking care of Elroy Hayes, everyone's attention shifted to Draven Hayes.

"Your turn."

Dirk Carter said.

At this point, Draven Hayes had completely lost his backing.

His powerful uncle in the government had fallen.

His father in the business world also crumbled.

Only he was left.

Moreover, the board of Stansen Group was now also under Dorothy Zechariah's control, he was truly alone.

However, he still had one last option.

He sneered.

And said, "Dirk Carter, so what if you've won? Dorothy is my legal wife, as long as I don't agree to a divorce, you can never marry her. I'll disgust you both, let the whole world know Dorothy Zechariah is an adulterous slut during marriage, and you, Dirk Carter, are a home-wrecking bastard, both of you shall be nailed to the pillar of shame, never to rise again, hahahaha..."

Seeing his mad demeanor.

Dirk Carter sneered back and asked, "What if you go to prison? Dorothy can then file for divorce, and how do you think the court will rule?"

"Prison? Why would I go to prison? I haven't broken any law, on what grounds do you think I'd go to prison? Dirk Carter, don't think I don't understand the law. I'm smart enough, everything that happened at Stansen Group had nothing to do with me. How are they related to me?"

Draven Hayes ranted wildly.

His face full of defiance.

Because he had long secured a backup plan for himself.

Dirk Carter smiled and asked, "Oh really? What about the rape incident at the hospital yesterday? Isn't that illegal too?"

Buzz!

Draven Hayes's smile instantly froze.

He took a sharp breath.

Looked at Dirk Carter incredulously.

Where did it go wrong, why was his privacy transparent to Dirk Carter?

With a "click" sound.

Before he could react, the police that Thatcher Wright brought along handcuffed him.

At this moment, he realized the gravity of the situation.

Swallowed hard.

Said, "Dirk Carter, I... I'm willing to let go, I'm willing to give up Dorothy to you, I'll also return Stansen Group to you, don't put me in prison, I don't want to go to prison, I don't want to go to prison..."

Pride lasted less than three seconds.

He was now weeping and begging Dirk Carter.

Dirk Carter walked up to Draven Hayes.

Asked, "You want me to forgive you?"

"Yes, yes, forgive me, forgive me, just like letting a dog go, I didn't recognize your greatness, I shouldn't have offended you, I know I was wrong..."

"When you were in power, did you ever think of sparing Barron and Dorothy?"

Dirk Carter questioned.

"I..."

Draven Hayes was momentarily speechless.

Dirk Carter sighed deeply.

And said, "Draven Hayes, you can move mountains, but you shouldn't have touched my woman. Since you did, you need to pay for your actions. I'll risk everything to make you face the consequences, and now, don't cry or make a scene, because your time has just begun. I've already arranged for the people in detention to take good care of you, so you'll have plenty of time to regret."

After saying this.

He gestured.

Said, "Take him away."

"Dirk Carter, I was wrong, Dorothy, I was wrong..."

Draven Hayes's howling voice echoed in the hall, gradually fading away...

"Dirk, what about these people?"

After the Hayes Family was taken away.

Only the group of restrained security remained.

Arlo Yarbrough asked.

Dirk Carter looked at Dorothy Zechariah and said, "Dorothy, you decide!"

"I..."

Dorothy seemed hesitant to make a decision.

Dirk Carter patted her on the shoulder, saying, "Just say it, I'll bear whatever consequences."

This statement.

Gave Dorothy Zechariah the courage.

She nodded and said loudly, "Dismiss them from all positions, and those involved in crimes will be handed over to the public security department."

Just like that.

The supporters of Draven Hayes were also taken away.

Stansen Group returned to the control of the Zechariah Family.

All the directors resumed their roles, and the group's internal overhaul began.

Returning again to the chairman's office.

Dorothy Zechariah couldn't hold back any longer, she embraced Dirk Carter, leaning against his chest, and said, "Dirk, it's so good to have you."

Dirk Carter gently stroked her head and said, "Don't thank me yet, I still have a gift for you..."
