Chapter 281: 283 The Fate Of President Smith (2)

The door opened quietly and President Smith entered the room full of people seated around a long oak table, above it was a small chandelier with its crystals lighting up the whole room and reflected on the shiny surface of the table.

"Let's start the meeting, everyone!" President Smith looked at everyone and sat back in his chair.

His secretary, Caroline, glanced at the manager responsible for today's PowerPoint presentation to start the meeting.

The manager was about to play the buttons when someone spoke first, "Wait, don't start yet."

President Smith looked at Mr. Harris, a shareholder of the company with at least 8 percent of shares. "What is it, Mr. Harris? Do you have anything you want to say before we start the meeting?"

"Of course, I have something to say," said Mr. Harris, undaunted by President Smith's arrogant eyes. "There is still someone we need to wait before we can start the meeting."

"Waiting for someone?" President Smith looked around the conference room and saw that every seat was taken already. Frowning, he asked, "Who else are we still waiting for? Isn't everybody here already?"

Mr. Harris laughed. "Don't worry, President Smith. The person we're waiting for is someone relevant to this meeting. Actually, that person has all the right to sit here inside this room more than anyone else."

Hearing him say this, President Smith sighed in relief but furrowed his brow while wondering who Mr. Harris was talking about. But seeing how these shareholders didn't say anything against him, they must have a clue of who it was. So, he calmed down a little bit.

But before he could think of any possible individual who could be coming to the conference room later, the door was knocked from outside.

Mr. Harris's eyes lit up and exclaimed happily, "It must be them."

The door opened and two people came inside.

President Smith was stunned.

As if he was a cat startled by a snake, his body trembled as he pointed his fingers at the newcomers.

"You…!"

President Smith turned his head and stared at Mr. Harris, "What is going on? Why is an artist of the company here? Quick! Leave this room this instant!"

At this point, it wasn't only President Smith who was shocked at the arrival of this person. Several managers from different departments were also staring at her in shock and surprise.

After all, this person was their number one artist at the moment, Ran Xueyi!

Ran Xueyi calmly walked in front of everyone's eyes and stopped when she reached the center.

A smile graced her lips as she said, "Good day, President Smith."

"No! There's nothing good at all! What is an artist of the company doing here? Mr. Harris, shouldn't you explain the situation clearly so all of us can understand why she's here? As one of the major shareholders, shouldn't you already know that it's not a good thing for an outsider to listen to what we're going to discuss in this meeting? Or is she not an outsider to you?"

Hearing this, some of the executives and managers shot an eye at Ran Xueyi. President Smith's words somehow changed the air in the atmosphere almost instantly, and it made them think that Ran Xueyi had some backdoor relationship with Mr. Harris.

Only Ran Xueyi still had a smile on her lips, silently observing everyone's expression, taking them all in and analyzing the situation.

Ran Xueyi could feel President Smith's hostility towards her as soon as he recognized that it was her who entered the room. She could also feel that some of these people's eyes were glued at her face, leering perversely at her as if they were in the red light district.

Perhaps their eyes filled with naughty thoughts were too obvious, Adelle noticed it immediately and tried to block their eyes that were glued on Ran Xueyi with her body.

But Mr. Harris's reply stunned everyone.

"Of course, she's not an outsider, President Smith," Mr. Harris said.

President Smith scoffed and asked, "Oh? I didn't know that you and her actually has some sort of relationship. Forgive me for my rudeness. If you only said it in the beginning, I wouldn't have made such a huge reaction." He turned to his secretary and ordered, "Go and get a chair for Estelle. It wouldn't be good for us if she ended up standing."

Caroline pushed back her chair and stood up to do what she was ordered, but Mr. Harris stopped him with a gesture.

"There's no need to do that. I'm willing to give up my seat for her."

President Smith frowned. He didn't expect that their relationship could be so deep that Mr. Harris, who was known for being a stuck-up and arrogant guy, gave up his chair for Ran Xueyi.

However, the show was not done yet.

"No, she's nearer my chair, I can give her my seat."

"I think my chair is softer and fluffier, she should sit here."

"My seat has a good view of the entire room."

Suddenly, several shareholders started to fight.

This situation was truly confusing and mind blowing.

Just what was going on?

President Smith sneered upon seeing this. "Heh, Estelle, I never thought you're so good that you're even able to have these important people give up their seats for you."

Ran Xueyi lifted the corners of her lips and calmly replied, "President Smith is also great. If I hadn't come today, would you coerce everyone to force me to sign a lifetime contract with the company?"

Mr. Harris' eyes flashed.

President Smith chuckled, "What are you talking about? Isn't it my job to grab onto any artist that has some value to remain in the company? I just thought that you're worth the try so I want to discuss this during the meeting. But who would have thought that you actually came here yourself, saves me the trouble of calling you later to my office."

President Smith spoke so smoothly and very convincingly that a lot of people nodded their heads in agreement. Even Ran Xueyi wanted to nod.

Unfortunately, she wasn't here to agree with President Smith's arrangements or plans. She was here to screw with President Smith until he could no longer lift a finger.

Naturally, Ran Xueyi did not expose herself quickly. She merely firmly said, "I have to agree that my value in the entertainment industry has shot up by a lot. I even successfully bagged several international awards. However, please do not forget that even if you want to hold onto me, you cannot force me to sign any contract."

"Estelle."

Vice President Robinson couldn't help but sternly call her name out.

Ran Xueyi did not turn to look at him, but looked at the self-important and conceited President Smith seriously. "Prior to now, I voluntarily acted in different films and also accepted any arrangement that the company has set for me. I even willingly gave up some of the scripts personally handed out to me by some other directors and entertainment media for my junior and senior artists. Now that I have achieved what I want and my contract is about to end, you suddenly wanted to keep me by forcing me to sign an unfair contract without notifying me no less — this is something I cannot accept nor will I let it happen."

President Smith and Vice President Robinson's faces dropped.

Vice President Robinson warned her, "Estelle, I strongly advise you to consider your status before you speak. I think those awards made you blind and think you can just do whatever you want. But let me remind you, until the contract duration is done, you can only accept the company's arrangements without complaints.

"Of course, I understand that very clearly." Ran Xueyi finally turned her attention to him. "Not only do I know what my status is in this company. Actually, I should be the one who should remind you of this concept."

Vice President Robinson lifted his gaze all of a sudden to give this woman a clear look. Estelle, the only artist that gave ORANGE Entertainment a glory unlike anyone else has ever done in the past several years was standing in front of everyone, dauntingly and languidly as if nothing here could scare her.

President Smith's face was dark. "What do you mean by that?"

The person who replied to his question was not Ran Xueyi but instead, it was Mr. Harris.

Mr. Harris: "Since we're already talking about this topic… First of all, I will officially introduce you to the highest shareholder in the company with 28 percent of shares, Ran Xueyi… or should I say, Estelle."

Ran Xueyi expressionlessly stepped forward.

Everyone, who did not know about her real status in the company, was stunned. One after another slowly moved their eyes in trepidation and astonishment before muttering something under their breaths.

Of course, the one who received a lot of shock turned out to be Adelle, who has no idea what Ran Xueyi planned to do today.

Adelle: "WHAT?!"
