Chapter 2680
stung by Eliza’s criticism, Hunter’s face turned red with anger. Hence,
Chester stopped him and asked, “Well then, tell me what good suggestions
you have.”
“If I put forward my suggestions, what’s the point of you sitting here?”
Charity asked sarcastically, “Is it because of your good looks and great
figure? Or is it because you have a bunch of people guarding outside so you
can force those who refuse to obey to do whatever you want?”
With that, all the shareholders’ expressions shifted.
Were they aware of the men guarding outside? Of course, they were.
Everyone was well aware of Chester’s strong-arm tactics.
Over the years, Chester did bring in a lot of profits for them, so they did not
mind. However, the shareholders were dissatisfied with the reduction in
profits this time. Since they could not bear to provoke Chester and there
was no leader, all the rest could do was obey.
Charity’s words seemed to reflect everyone’s thoughts.

the people outside would barge in and drag Charity away.
Clap, clap, clap!
Contrary to everyone’s expectations, Chester did not get mad. Instead, he started clapping. “What a good speech.
But Reborn, you don’t know the company that well. Take the hospital’s management, for example. It puts me in a
difficult position when every director and shareholder get their relatives or good friends to join. I’d like to ask these
people too. You got them to join and said they were okay, but what happened in the end?”
A few directors’ and shareholders’ faces turned pale, and they instantly looked down without saying a word.
“Say something. Come on, give Reborn an explanation.” Chester snorted, “otherwise, she’s going to put all the
blame on my dad and me.”
No one had the courage to answer the question.
Charity took a sip of her coffee before she smiled and said, “It’s your problem, of course. You approved of them
having their people join the hospital because they said so. This shows that you’re not competent enough to be
president. If everyone pulls some strings, you won’t be able to realize the real talents in such a transnational
company. Can’t you just listen to the thoughts of your people? You shouldn’t just think about charging high fees and
forget about the purpose of setting up a hospital.”
Everyone was stunned.
Charity said, “I remember the Jewell family’s ancestors founded Jewell Corporation with the purpose of allowing
everyone to get treated and afford the treatment.”

The meeting room plunged into total silence.
Even Hunter did not say anything, for he felt extremely guilty.
Chester’s thin lips curled into a grin as he looked at Charity thoughtfully. “In
that case, do you mean that as long as other people can afford the
treatment, you don’t care about Jewell Corporation’s net profit each year?
Reborn, you really are selfless, while we’re such miserly creatures, shame
on us.”
Charity crossed her arms and remained calm. “Jewell Corporation has a
whole industry chain, from medical equipment and medical companies to a
hospital. We even fund all kinds of medical researchers and poor students
every year. We have so many platforms, but what I understand from you is
that I alone need to sacrifice my personal gains in order to contribute to
society? Hah. I finally see the true colors of the well-known Jewell
Corporation.”

Chester decided not to beat around the bush, and the smile on his
handsome face revealed a trace of danger. “Why don’t you express your
intention? Or do you, in fact, not want to see me sitting here?”
“No, no. I think you’ve misunderstood me.” Charity said with a smile, “I
personally believe that you’re competent, President Jewell. You have tactics
and connections, whereas I know nothing. It’s my first time here in Jewell
Corporation, and I was just making an appeal. As a shareholder, I surely
care about Jewell Corporation’s yearly profits. The profit doesn’t have to be
the same every year, but it certainly can’t drop as low as it has over the
last two months. Do the rest think my appeal is unreasonable?”
“That was what we wanted to say as well. ” Finn immediately nodded as a
sign of agreement.
Seeing that someone had taken the lead to agree, the other shareholders
also nodded. “President Jewell, it’s impossible for Jewell Corporation to be
as powerful as we were before, considering our condition. We can forgo at
most 50 percent of the market, but we must guard the other 50 percent
strictly.”
