The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1858

Wyatt made his way over to Lysander with a warmly welcoming smile. As he approached Lysander, Wyatt slightly bowed and said, “Right this way, Lysander.” David, without a moment's hesitation, began pushing Lysander towards the spot Wyatt had indicated - the head of the conference table, a position reserved for those who made the highest decisions. Once Lysander was comfortably seated at the very head of the rectangular table, Wyatt, satisfied, returned to his own seat.

“It’s time to begin the meeting,” he announced.

No sooner had he spoken than a voice piped up, “Should we start without Payton, the current CEO?” The question came from a shareholder, a staunch supporter of Payton. This opened the floodgates, and others aligned with Payton chimed in, “Exactly, how can we have a shareholders' meeting without the CEO leading us?”

Another group, siding with Wyatt, retorted, “Lysander is also a CEO of the Sinclair Group!”

“But the former CEO is just that, former. How can he compare to the current one?” a supporter of Payton shot back. “The former doesn’t hold the power that the current does. How can we proceed with such a crucial corporate meeting without the head honcho?”

“Let’s not forget, Payton was only meant to temporarily manage the Sinclair Group for Lysander. Now that Lysander’s back, it’s only right he steps aside!” Wyatt countered, his face a mask of controlled fury.
