The document made its rounds across the polished table, and Ricky soon found himself surrounded by pointed fingers and harsh words.
“Is everyone now on board with removing Mr. Flynn as the CEO of the Flynn Group?” Amelia asked.
“I’m in favor p>
“So do I p>
Granville wasted no time. The moment Amelia’s words faded, his hand went up. One by one, even Ricky’s supposed allies—people once loyal—lifted their hands after reading the damning evidence.
With the board’s decision plain for all to see, Amelia fixed her gaze on Ricky and said, “I now declare Ricky Flynn removed from his position. Starting today, I will take charge as the new CEO of the Flynn Group p>
