Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 601 Madeline's Plot Failed

If Madeline really became Skylight's chairperson, it would be a pity for Skylight and all the shareholders.

Madeline must have sensed the meaning in the eyes of these people. She couldn't stand it, and she yelled with reddened eyes, "Why are you looking at me like that? What do you mean?"

But no one answered her, nor did Sydney. Sydney ignored her completely. She turned to Stephen and smiled coldly," Unfortunately, President Dayton, you don't know the whole story. It is true that if I had inherited the shares from my father, I should have given Madeline half of them, but I did not get them from my father." "What do you mean?" Stephen was shocked. He jerked to his feet and yelled," You didn't inherit your shares from Harry?"

"No!" Sydney crossed her arms around her chest and looked at him cynically, "Six years ago, when Skylight was on the verge of bankruptcy, my father used his shares as collateral with the bank and some other shareholders to raise money to get Skylight back on track. My father thought he could give up the chairpersonship as long as Skylight could survive, so he pledged 40 percent of his shares without hesitation, and in the end, he only had 11 percent of the shares. He raised some funds with 40 percent of his shares.

However, Madeline and her mother then took all that money away."

Sydney then turned to Madeline, without the slightest emotion in her eyes, as if she were looking at a thing.

Madeline was startled by Sydney's eyes. She froze.

Sydney's eyes were so frightening, as if she was going to kill Madeline.

Madeline couldn't believe that Sydney, who used to be bullied by her, had grown so powerful!

"So, you only inherited 11 percent of the shares from Harry?" Stephen looked at Sydney with a grimace.

Sydney curled her lips, "That's right!"

"That's not possible!" Stephen roared and swept the cup of tea in front of him off the table.

The moment the teacup flew out, the water inside splashed out and a few drops splashed on Madeline's face. The water was hot, and Madeline screamed and jumped up. "What are you doing?" Madeline glared at Stephen, and she stopped calling him Uncle Stephen.

Stephen was angry, too. He threw a fierce glance at her, "Shut up!"

Madeline's face turned pale. She shut her mouth at once.

Stephen was a tough guy. With his age, he was intimidating.

Although Madeline was also a tough woman, at that moment, she kept her mouth shut. She was stunned by Stephen.

Seeing Madeline quiet down, Stephen turned back to Sydney, a complicated look on his face. "Do you have proof that Harry traded out 40 percent of the shares six years ago?"

"Of course!" Sydney looked to a shareholder not far away and said, "Mr. Weyl is also a senior shareholder of Skylight. He's joined the company since it was founded, so he knows a lot of things."

"Ms. Raines is right." While Sydney addressed the man as Mr. Weyl, he addressed Sydney as Ms. Raines. After all, this was a shareholder meeting, and Mr. Weyl always maintained business etiquette. He didn't call Sydney by her first name as he would in private.

Mr. Weyl looked at Stephen and answered," Six years ago, Mr. Raine first came to me. He wanted to trade 5 percent of his shares for $20 million. I agreed. I still have the contract. Not only with me, Mr. Raines also traded his shares with Mr. Parker."

"Yes." Mr. Parker nodded, "Besides Mr. Weyl and me, Harry also traded his shares with several other shareholders. Although some of them have left Skylight, if you want to see the contracts, they should have them."

After hearing Mr. Weyl and Mr. Parker's words, Stephen trembled in rage. Although he didn't want to believe it, he had to admit the truth.

Stephen looked at Sydney and demanded in a harsh voice, "Since you didn't inherit all of your shares from Harry, where did you get the other 40 percent?"

Sydney curled her lips." My grandfather and Luke from the Chase Group acquired the shares that my father sold to Mr. Weyl, Mr. Parker, and the other shareholders. So, President Dayton, now do you understand why I said you don't know the whole story? You think I inherited all my shares from my father, so Madeline can take half of them from me, but in fact, Madeline only gets 5.5 percent." Even if Sydney gave away 5.5 percent of her shares, she was still the largest shareholder in Skylight.

However, her shares did not reach the absolute holding of the company shares. Even if she became chairperson, she wouldn't be able to overrule Stephen, which is a shame for Sydney. But anyway, as long as Stephen and Madeline's plan failed, Sydney was satisfied.

Stephen clenched his fists fiercely and stared at Sydney with horrible eyes. He didn't say a word.

5.5 percent? Why he was helping Madeline to fight for such a small share?

Madeline saw Stephen's face darken, and then she glanced at Sydney, and with the smile on Sydney's face and the words Sydney had just said, Madeline came to her senses. Madeline parted her lips, and it took a while before she could ask Stephen, "Uncle Stephen, is there no way we can get the shares from Sydney?"

"What do you think?" Stephen's eyes were red. He looked like he was going to kill Madeline.

'Stupid woman! She came to me and asked me to help her get into Skylight. She wanted to take Sydney's position. However, she doesn't understand anything!'

When Madeline came to Stephen, he was excited. He thought Madeline could take half of Sydney's shares.

However, he was wrong. Sydney's shares were not inherited from her father, but acquired from others. Madeline had no right to take half of Sydney's shares. Therefore, his plan with Madeline failed, and it was a joke!

"I can't get her shares?" Madeline had no idea how much Stephen hated her at that moment. When she learned that she couldn't get Sydney's shares, she was going crazy.

She came back to the country with great expectations. She thought she could take Skylight away from Sydney, yet it turned out she couldn't.

Madeline couldn't believe it!

Stephen took a deep, angry breath. He was going to ignore Madeline. He was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist strangling the woman later.

Watching Stephen slump into his chair, Sydney snorted, "It seems President Dayton is not going to support Madeline now, so I'm going to take the chair." "Why?" Madeline got anxious.

Sydney sneered, "Because I have my grandfather while you don't!"

"You..." Madeline wanted to say something else, but suddenly, she was cut off by a harsh stare from Stephen.

Madeline shut her mouth. Then Stephen turned to Sydney, "Sydney, if you want to take the chair, you have to give Madeline 5.5 percent of the shares you're holding."
