All documents are ready. I rehearsed all lines that I need to say. Today is the big day. The general meeting. I called for all stock holders and department heads. Everyone is around including my Dad. I want him to see how I will turn the table today. I asked him to call for the motion to replace the company President which is secomded by Dina's grandma.
"All the achievements of the current President is still the achievement of the previous leader. I want to make things clear ones and for all, that the Ponti still runs this company. If you want us out then buy our 40% out, you will never see us around. If you can't then I need your support to put back a Ponti on that Presidential seat." I stated with strong determination. My uncle stood and nominate my father. Some of our loyal friends agreed.
"I nominate Mr. Richards for the position." stated by Veron. I know he has no choice but be on his father sides. The Department heads are devided but they have very little power on this matter, only the Riveras' and the Lopezes' vote matters today. That 15 percent can change the world. The room is divided between our allies and the Richards friends. I kept my stare to the Riveras hoping they will keep their promise. The Lopezes' votes will only give 5 percent making this election tie on 45. But we still need that vote since if they favor on the other side again 50 vs 50 won't give us the winning result. One by one the Riveras and the Lopezes' stood on my father's back and offer their support to my father giving him the majority vote of 55%.
"The stockholders had spoken Mr. Richard, you can vacate the CEO's office starting on monday." The old man is so disappointed on the result. He walked out of the room. But he didn't fail to stop in front of Mr. Rivera to threaten him about his treachery.
"You will pay for this. See you at court." He warned the old Rivera. He answered him with wave to finally send him out of the room. Veron followed his father. The people left inside the room celebrated as the Richards leave the room.
