Mr. Lewis had anticipated their objections.

“What do you mean by outsider?”

Sebastian Lewis looked at Richelle Dunn contemptuously, “If I’m not mistaken, she hasn’t officially married Roy, right? So legally speaking, she’s an outsider. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate to have her as the acting president, Dad?”

Mr. Lewis glanced at Richelle and the three children, and then at his own four children.

They all share the Lewis surname, but comparing the young Dunns, who are only in their twenties, with the centuries-old Lewis descendants, it’s clear who’s superior.

“Indeed, Richelle and Roy haven’t registered their marriage yet. But the three children have been registered as members of the Lewis family, and as the children’s exclusive legal guardian, Richelle has the responsibility to represent them. According to your logic, if Roy were to meet an unfortunate end, his shares would naturally be inherited by the children, and that would give Richelle the highest decision-making power among the shareholders present.” “Now tell me, how is that improper?”

Sebastian was momentarily stunned, as he hadn’t considered this point.

“But Grandpa, didn’t you say Roy is not dead?”

Mr. Lewis raised his eyebrows, “Of course I think he’s not dead, but you insist on believing that he’s already met with misfortune. It’s based on your assumption that Richelle and I took up the roles of acting chairman and president. But if you think Roy is still alive and just busy with something else, then Nathan can continue to handle the matters on his behalf, just like before.”

Finally, Sebastian realized he’d brought trouble upon himself.

Unable to use this as a reason for objection, he had to resort to another tactic.

“Dad, shouldn’t the Lewis Group also rely on ability, not just shares, to be in power?”

Mr. Lewis and Roy had already prepared countermeasures the day before.

“How about the same three-month probation period as before? As long as the Lewis Group maintains a steady momentum, if Roy hasn’t returned after three months, Richelle will continue to serve as acting president until Roy comes back.”

The other shareholders, most likely feeling that Sebastian’s actions were excessive, preferred to place their bets on Richelle compared to the shocking stock price plummet they’d experienced years ago.

At this moment, everyone, including Mr. Lewis, hadn’t considered the potential of the three children.

Only Roy and Richelle, as parents, had a little hope for their kids.

After hanging up the phone with the housekeeper yesterday, Richelle had this to say to Roy:

“I think it’s a good opportunity to let the kids practice.”

Roy, of course, had no objection, as he wasn’t really dead. If anything went wrong, he knew he could step in.

However, he couldn’t help but admire Richelle’s courage and guts, taking on such a heavy burden from Mr. Lewis without fear, and treating the very serious workplace as a testing ground for the children.

Roy thought to himself that, since Timothy and Timmy truly enjoyed it, he could let them take over the family business when they got older, so he and Richelle could live a carefree life.

Of course, he wouldn’t dare to tell Richelle this, otherwise, she’d beat him up.

With the support of the board of directors, shareholders, and Mr. Lewis, Richelle unhesitatingly became the acting president of the Lewis Group.

Sebastian and his siblings naturally looked very displeased.

After the board meeting, the four returned to Sebastian’s office.

Sebastian angrily threw himself into his chair, “That old man is determined to protect Roy’s family!”

Grace Lewis said, “Isn’t it obvious? That little doctor is just a fallen daughter of the Dunns. She doesn’t deserve to be here!”

Grace usually speaks the least among her siblings.

It’s not that she’s the kindest but on the contrary, she knows how to let her siblings take the lead while she reaps the benefits.

Sebastian slammed the table in anger upon hearing his sister’s words.

“No, we need to think of a way to prevent that little doctor from succeeding in her schemes.”

Aldo Lewis tried to cool him down, “Brother, we don’t want her to succeed either, but have you forgotten? She has three genius children at her disposal. That alone is enough for her to ask for anything from Grandpa.”

“I don’t care what she wants, but she can’t take away what’s rightfully ours.”

In their eyes, whatever Mr. Lewis held in his hands in terms of shares should be given to them, not to Roy as a grandson or even as a great-grandson like the three children.

But they forgot that each former ruler of the Lewis Group would eventually pass on everything in their hands to the current leader, so that the Lewis empire could keep growing.

Their wealth would not be dispersed among mediocre descendants..
