Chapter No.6

Gabriella Harrison:-

I entered the conference room and saw the board members waiting for me. When they saw me they stood up and nodded their heads.

"Miss. Harrison." they said in unison.

" Gentlemen," I nodded back after reaching my head chair " Please have a seat."they all sit back on their places and the meeting begin.

" Miss. Harrison, I am sure by now you must have came to know how the company is sinking down right? It is about to go bankrupt. Why are you going to do about it?" one of the board member asked.

" Mr. Jacob, right?" I asked  and looked at Silvia with a grin " Silvia, will you please do me the honor of presenting Mr. Jacob with the special gift I prepared for him?"

" Gladly, Miss. Harrison." Silvia said with a smile and palced the manila envelope in front of him.

" Mr. Jacob, before you open that what were you planning to suggest me because it surely feels like to me you were planning to ask me to step down and let all of you bastards run my father's company right?" I asked with a smirk leaning against the chair like a queen. His face turned pale and he looked around at everyone present in the room.

" I am speaking here on behalf of everyone. It's not just my plan, Miss. Harrison because all of us board members think that a woman can't run the company." Mr. Jacob said making me glare at everyone. Everyone gulped and looked down.

" Is that so, then by all means I think so I need to provide you all with the gifts from my side." I announced and Silvia began to place envelope on the table of every board member " And, who are you to ask me to step down? You are still sitting in the conference room of Harrison Industries.

I am the legal and only heir of my father so it means the company is mine and I am the only capable person of running it. I am not just any woman. I am Gabriella Harrison. I am sure you all mus thave heard news about me. I can be very violent when I want to be. Now by all means please open the envelope and receive my precious gifts made from my hardwork."

They all looked at me and opened the envelope, a satisfied smirk formed on my face when I looked all of their face color go pale. I stood up proudly and roamed around them and laughed.

" Do you all still want me to step down form my position?" I asked and looked at their silent faces " I guess not so why don't you guys be a good guy and sell me your shares?"

" Sell you our shares? But why?" they all asked shocked.

" Because you al are hidden criminals, smugglers, chearters and the list goes on. If I send these evidence to the authority and your families, your wives then you are going to be doomed. Especially those who are living and enjoy their luxuries with their wife's money." I threatened " The choice is yours. You have got five minutes to make the decision because after five miutes I am going to take my offer back adn send these evidences where they belong."

" But how are you going to being money for that? Your father is already in the debt. The company is already in the debt." they asked.

" You guys only saw me as a spoiled brat. No one saw me as a business woman. You guys know nothing about me but I know everything about you all." I replied with a wicked grin " Now, the decison please."

" You are going to loose all the investors if you do that." they tell me.

" You think I care? I can always find new." I snapped " Now, transfer or go to prison or on the streets."

" Miss. Harrison, sorry to break it but I have zero criminal or any other background so I don't need to sell my shares to you. I work smartly." one of the broad members smirked arrogantly.

" Oh, I know Mr. Carlos. Which is why I am proud of you. You get to stay at my company." I tell him with a wink.

" Bu..." I cut him off from further speaking and focused on everyone else.

"Can we talk later? I need to buy some shares?" I cut him off and looked at everyone else " I am ready to pay now to buy your shares."

" If you have got that much then why don't you pay the debt?" one of them asked.

" You don't know what I am doing so stay quiet." I snapped and looked at Silvia " Silvia, start paying them for the shares and call William inside. Ask him to bring the agreement papers." he nodded and began to do what I asked for while I sat down on the chair keeping eye on everyone but Mr. Carlos kept on smirking at me which was making me uncomfortable but I refused to show it.

" Miss. Harrison, we are done." Silvia announced.

" How much percentage shareholder does it make me now?" I asked Silvia who was damn good in business too. He smiled and announced.

"You totally hold the shares of 49%," he announced " Mr. Carlos over there hold one percent but....ummm...,"

" Just speak, Silvia." I ordered " Why do I still have got 49% After purchasing their shares shouldn't I be left with more than that?" I asked confused " Who holds the rest of the fifty percent shares? Werent they my father's shares?" I asked " I didn't play with his shares at all. I purchased all these with my own money then how does it make me only 49% of the partner?"

" Can we talk later, Gabby?" Silvia asked with me in low tone. I groaned and looked at Mr. Carlos.

"Mr. Carlos, I know it's wrong of me to ask that but I am ready to buy your shares in double amount oi you sell it to me. Your one percent can make me 50% of the partner. You have worked for this company for a very long time. You can help me save it." I asked Mr. Carlos to sell me his share.

"Miss. Harrison, that's what I was trying to tell you earlier when you cut me off. I have sold my one percent share to someone else. I am not the board member anymore." Mr. Carlos announced making me look at him dumbfounded.

" Who did you sell it too?" I asked " Who? Name the person!"

" Me!" a deep masculine voice was heard of a man who just entered the conference room like an emperor with his guards making my eyes go wide " Mr. Carlos sold his one percent share to me, Miss. Harrison. Which makes me 51% of the shareholder of this company."

" Dante? What are you talking about?" I asked frozen at my place with my eyes opened wide in shock.

" I am sorry, Gabby. That was what I was asking you talk about later because he was the fifty percent partner of this company. Now, that he bought the left over one percent shares it makes him 51% percent partner of the company." Silvia tells with his head held low in defeat.

" And, the new owner of Harrison Industries." Dante added with a smirk on his face " And, the new CEO."
