<strong>Chapter 1460:</strong>


    Jayden had long understood the Owens’ schemes, which had solidified his initial resolution to leave.


    A slight, deceitful smile appeared on his face as he smoothly said, “There seems to be some confusion. I was elected chairman by the shareholders. Youck the authority to challenge this. Moreover…”


    His smile faded, reced by a firm resolve as he scanned the room. “I suggest you gather your belongings and leave. Your severance will be handled by the finance department.”


    “You want to fire us? Don’t you know we’re your rtives?” someone yelled, mming their hand on the table in front of Jayden.


    Jayden responded withposure, “Yes, I know exactly who you are. You’re the ones who have been challenging my leadership as chairman. As employees, your defiance clearly crosses the line.”


    He then turned to Brook andmanded, “Fire them all. Additionally, it’s time for a major restructuring. Let’s clear out the ipetent ones.”


    “Jayden Owen, how dare you!” another eximed in outrage.


    “If you fire us, we will disown you!” one threatened.


    “You better take that back and say it was just a joke.”


    Jayden, scratching his ear in irritation, retorted, “You’ve never contributed anything of value to Owen Group, yet you parade around as if you run thepany. That’s enough. Pack your things and leave. I don’t have time to entertain you.”


    Realizing Jayden was serious, someone turned to Brook and asked, “Brook, do you also support Jayden as chairman?”


    Brook, understanding the mindset of these people who had made him the temporary CEO, knew well the dynamics of power within thepany. As the CEO, he was second only to Jayden in influence.


    He recognized that having Jayden as chairman was preferable to these old n members seizing control.


    Thus, he responded stoically, “Jayden’s appointment as chairman was decided by several shareholders. If you object, rally the shareholders and call a general meeting to remove him. Without that, you cannot alter this decision.”


    “You’re just as stubborn!” the inquirer retorted, dumbfounded.


    Another person, clearly harsh, asked, “You and Jayden have always been rivals since childhood. How does it feel to have him ranking above you now?”


    Brook shifted his gaze to the speaker and replied, “I was the one who persuaded Jayden to step in and rescue Owen Group. I orchestrated this oue. Of course I’m fine with him ranking above me.”


    Everyone realized that Jayden and Brook had engineered the scenario to their advantage, positioning themselves as the primary beneficiaries.


    Jayden then added, “Alright, stop lingering here. Get on with what you need to do and prepare to leave.”


    The group exited, mutteringints.


    Greg remained, dumbfounded, watching Jayden. He couldn’t fathom how Jayden had emerged unscathed, even after the involvement of the n members. Now, it was he who was on the brink of being dismissed.


    Jayden looked at Greg, his lips curling into a taunting smile. “Do you have any other schemes up your sleeve to try and oust me?”


    Greg felt a surge of anger and wanted tosh out at Jayden, but the realization of Jayden’s power restrained him. He worried about Debora’s position within thepany. Would his actions jeopardize her job too?
