“Isaac, what about you? Is there anything you'd like to say to defend yourself?" Robin said in a serious tone. He was holding the supposed evidence in his hand.

Isaac scratched his head and pretended to be embarrassed. He forced himself to look shocked, as though he couldn't believe this sudden turn of events.

He wanted the people around him to think that he was completely clueless of what was happening today.

So, in front of everyone, he scolded Willie, “You idiot! How can you allow such a document to be exposed?!"

“I'm sorry, Mr. Johnston. I didn't know that the document was lost in the first place." Willie pretended to be apologetic and ignorant at the same time.

“Stop that! This isn't the right time to blame your subordinate for your incompetence. When you decided to hide this matter from us, it was only a matter of time for us to discover it," Travis said condescendingly at Isaac.

Then, he snorted and added, “I've always heard from other people that you're capable as much as you are arrogant. It turns out that you're just mediocre."

Willie narrowed his eyes at Travis.

“What are you talking about? Everyone makes mistakes. Let me ask you this: how much value has Mr. Johnston created for this company over the years? Why don't you mention that, huh? You have no right to blame him."

“He might have created a Lot of value for the company in the past, but it's an undeniable fact that he had also caused the company to lose several billions. Such a person is no longer suitable to be CEO. It is already hard for us to trust his judgment," one of the shareholders chimed.

“That's right! As a member of the Johnston family, I think Travis is much more qualified to lead the future development of the Paramount Corporation," a shareholder, who had been bribed by Audrey, immediately advocated for Travis.

Isaac then put on a pitiful face.

“I've been in charge of the group for so many years. During my tenure, our company became a top performer—"

“That's in the past already," another shareholder interrupted.

Before, no one had dared to talk to Isaac like that.

But now, since everyone knew that the Johnston family was about to overthrow him, they were already brave enough to confront him head-on. However, unbeknownst to them, everything was going according to Isaac's plan. He behaved like he was unable to turn the tables and, in a dejected tone, he said, “If that's truly how you feel, then I'll resign from the position of CEO."

After saying that, he stood up, turned to Willie, and ordered him, “Pack up all of my things today."

Willie nodded and then glanced at the shareholders in the meeting room. He snorted at them secretly in his heart.

He thought that every single one of them was cold-blooded.

Isaac had made a lot of profit for them over the years.

And yet, they all still turned hostile towards him just because they would benefit from it. The past meant nothing to them. They had no sense of gratitude at all!

Isaac didn't go back to his office. Instead, he stood at the elevator and intended to go downstairs. Meanwhile, Willie went to Isaac's office to pretend packing up his things. The truth was that he had already transferred everything that Isaac had considered important.

This was just all for show.

“Mr. Johnston." Wynter came over.

“Go find Willie. He'll arrange something for you," Isaac told her. Wynter sunk her head and muttered, “Okay.”
