Chapter 89

None of the shareholders had faith in Freya. They only wanted her to sell off the company and pay them back. Watching the unfolding scene, Freya had anticipated their reactions. At that moment, she glanced at her lawyer.

The lawyer set a laptop in front of everyone and, with a press of a button, two billion dollars suddenly appeared in the company's bank account.

“Take a good look, folks. That’s two billion dollars.”

At that, everyone was stunned. Two billion dollars? Where did Freya get that much money? Johanna was also shocked. She wondered when Freya had gotten her hands on two billion dollars.

As a few shareholders moved forward to verify the truth, Freya smiled and said, “Now that the money’s right here, does anyone have any… Adore questions?”

“It’s seriously two billion dollars?”

“Ms. Dawson, you’re not just trying to calm us down, are you?”

“Where did these two billion dollars come from?”

Everyone looked at Freya with suspicion.

Freya leaned back in her chair and said, “Shouldn’t we be more focused on solving the company’s crisis than where this money came from?”

“Well…” Everyone looked at each other, momentarily lost for words.

But Johanna didn’t have any of it. She said, “Freya! You should have brought it out sooner if you had two billion dollars all this time! You’ve made everyone so worried. What were you thinking?”

Johanna’s face was full of dissatisfaction. “Freya must have set this up, trying to take the company’s control from her hands!” Thinking this, Johanna was fuming.

Freya smiled at Johanna and said, “Johanna, I went through a lot to secure this money. You didn’t lift a finger, yet you’re blaming me. Don’t you think that’s a bit unfair?”

Johanna was at a loss for words, but then she thought of the control over the company. The company that was meant to be handed down to her son was now slipping into Freya’s hands. Johanna took a deep breath and glanced at Galen beside her. They exchanged a complicit look.

Johanna said haughtily, “Now that the company’s crisis is resolved, Freya, you don’t need to worry about anything else. The rest of us will discuss the next steps.”

Seeing Freya had no intention of leaving, Johanna added, “Freya, no matter how you slice it, you’re still unfamiliar with the company. Even if you were to take over the company, it would be years from now. I’m only thinking of your best interest.”

At that, Freya suddenly laughed. Johanna couldn’t stand to see Freya laugh, which sent a chill down her spine every time.

Still smiling, Freya said, “Johanna, have you forgotten? You and the company have no ties anymore, and I am the rightful owner of the Dawson Group?”
