Chapter 23 - 23

"Mr.Mendoza, You finally came," A guy walked up to Isaac who had just entered the meeting room. The guy who came to greet him was tall, he was in his late twenties with an attractive personality and stunning features. His name was Nash Saturn, the Vice President of Stronghold Constructions. Isaac didn't bother answering him and took a seat.

"Okay, Fair enough," Nash pressed his lips together and gave a nod to himself.

"So what brings you here? To the SC? I thought you were not interested in this building nor with the stocks?" Asked Nash as he secured his seat.

"There is something that has particularly caught my interest recently," Said Isaac.

"Hmm...I wonder what that might be," said Nash trying to make him speak.

"I have heard that the company has a new CEO," said Isaac.

"Yes, we certainly have a new CEO." Nash's lip curled up into a smile when he spoke those words, There was a very playful emotion in his eyes when he muttered those words and glanced at his cell phone before continuing, "It has been just two days since she was appointed but I already don't have to come to work because of her," he added.

"I want to remove her from the post," Said Issac, cutting his words.

"Huh?" It was as if Nash was caught by surprise, His eyebrows creased and he lightly tilted his head in confusion and asked. "She has worked hard to get that position," he said. But suddenly his face relaxed and he spoke, "Well whatever, It has nothing to do with me. Tell me what can I do for you," said Nash.

"I want to know who owns what percentage of stocks in the company. I want to buy them all," said Isaac.

"Buy them all?!There is no need for that. The shareholders are already planning on removing her from the post. I bet they have already created some serious issues for her." Nash fidgeted the pen between his fingers and rested his back against the seat.

"I know, But I want to be the reason she has to leave her job," Isaac spoke in a mean voice.

"Hmm...I wonder what she did to piss you off," he mumbled under his breath.

"Wait a moment, I will get you the file of the stockholders," Said Nash and picked up his cell phone, he walked up to the window and breathed out. Isaac was looking straight so he didn't notice the odd expression on Nash's face.

A few moments later, Nash returned to his seat and gave Isaac a friendly smile. "The file will be here in a moment, But I must tell you that the shareholders are not very interested in selling their stocks. The company is booming and in the future, it will bring them great revenue. No one is dumb enough to let go of that." said Nash.

Isaac stared at him for a few moments and then spoke. "I will make them an offer they can't refuse." Said, Isaac.

Nash clenched his teeth trying hard to suppress his emotion. "Very well then," Said Nash and glanced at the door, it opened and Mark walked into the room holding a grey file. Isaac's back was towards Mark so he wasn't able to see who it was.

"Here is it," said Mark.

"Hey!! Marky boy! I thought your cruel boss has tied you up somewhere, BUt you look quite normal." Said Nash in a playful tone. Isaac turned his head around to see Mark standing. His eyebrows knitted and he gave him an ugly look.

"Nice to see you too, Saturn," said Mark.

"What do you need this for," he asked, not baiting an eye to Isaac,

"Mr.Isaac here wants to screw up your bossy boss," Nash leisurely spoke. Mark looked at Isaac with a not very surprised face.

"As if we were not enough," Replied Mark in a mocking tone. He pulled out another seat and sat on it. The situation right now was very complicated for Isaac. He glanced at Nash with a questioning gaze.

"Don't worry, He is one of the shareholders," Nash said to Isaac.

"Hah! This is interesting," Isaac muttered.

"So Mr.Mendoza. What made you change your mind? I saw you yesterday walking away with Miss. Peace in a rather happy mood.You changed teams rather quickly," He suppressed his laughter and asked.

"I can ask you the same question," said Isaac.

"By the looks of it, I am not the only one who is plotting against her," replied Isaac in a composed manner.

"You are right," Said Mark, "It is heartbreaking to lose such a sexy woman, but what can we do. Money is important," said Mark.

Isaac's face darkened up slowly, he remembered Mark's actions from yesterday, and they were opposed to what he was doing today.

Isaac's fist curled up into a rock, a feeling of hatred boiled up in his stomach, it was getting hard for him to breathe in the same air as them. Although he was also plotting against her, Mark was playing a very dirty game by acting all sweet in front of Peace and was stabbing her behind her back, he wanted to land a punch on his jaw but he kept his emotions in and rather stared at him with disgust.

Isaac pushed away from the seat and got up. He looked at NAsh and spoke.

"Tell me if any shareholder is interested in negotiating, I will give them a huge price," said Isaac and walked out of the room, Mark saw him walk away and it was as if an idea struck him out of nowhere, he quickly followed him to the hallway.

"Mr. Mendoza! Wait!" Mark called out, Isaac was halfway through the hallway when he heard his voice, His footsteps paused and he turned around slowly.

Isaac closed his eyes and breathed in deeply, "what is it?" he asked.

"What if I sell you my shares?" he asked.

Isaac frowned," Why would you?" Isaac questioned.

"Because what I am about to ask of you in return is way more precious than these shares," said Mark.

Isaac crossed his arms and looked at him with a curious look in his eyes, "Name Your price," Said Isaac.

With those words, a very blissful smile appeared on Mark's face. "For every 2% share of mine, I want 1% share in the Emperor's State," Mark replied with a smirk.
