Chapter 541:


    His expression was icy, and his patience was fraying.


    “Call ke right now and tell him to withdraw his shares andplete the rest of the procedures as soon as possible.”


    Alicia’s anger boiled over.


    “When will you stop this, Caden?”


    His gaze turned sharp.


    “Will you do it or not?”


    Alicia’s temper ignited.


    “No! You have no right to meddle in mypany’s affairs!”


    Caden abruptly released her arm, turning on his heel to stride toward the study.


    Alicia knew he was about to take drastic measures to remove ke, so she quickly followed him.


    But Caden mmed the door in her face, leaving her standing on the threshold.


    She pounded on the door, her cheeks flushed with anger.


    “Caden! Don’t you have any shred of decency?” The urge to curse bubbled up inside her, but she held back, her heart racing painfully in her chest.


    All the executives at the gallery owed their positions to him.


    A single call from him could sway the entire board, and by tomorrow, ke’s shares could be forcibly stripped away.


    With the right authority and a hefty sum of money, such an action didn’t even require ke’s consent.


    Momentster, Caden swung the door open.


    Alicia stood rigidly, staring at him.


    “What did you do?”


    Caden looked down at her, his gaze as indifferent as stone.


    “I did exactly what you are thinking.”


    Alicia felt her strength drain away.


    She bit her lip, disappointment etched across her face.


    Caden’s tone turned harsh.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    “Alicia, it’s just ke.


    Why do you look at me like that with those sad eyes?”


    “Why did you do that?” Alicia countered, her voice trembling.


    “Do you want to know why I allowed Mr.


    Langstaff to join as a shareholder? Because I appreciate his talent and capabilities! Do you have to wipe out everyone who likes me?”


    Caden sneered coldly, “I’ll deal with anyone who crosses the line.”


    Alicia couldn’t help butugh bitterly.


    “In that case, why don’t you deal with Ynda?”


    She continued, “Ynda has done enough to deserve serious consequences.


    Why haven’t I seen you act with such decisiveness?”


    Caden replied, “If ke had a father as powerful as hers, he’d stand a fighting chance against me, too.”


    “Is it really because of Dorian? I think you’re just unwilling to hurt her!” Alicia’s emotions surged, prompting her to blurt out, “Or are you simply ipetent? Is taking your anger out on innocent people your way of venting?”


    Caden’s expression instantly darkened.


    Suddenly, Alicia’s phone rang.


    Her chest tightened as she averted her gaze from Caden’s almost murderous stare to answer the call.


    It was ke calling.


    She realized that Caden had already dispatched someone to persuade ke to reconsider.
