Chapter 1169: Chapter 1169: Revitalizing the Drew Corporation
At the scene, the offshoots of the Drew family showed disdain, whispering amongst themselves, "Boyd Drew is an illegitimate child! Heâs not really part of the family, why should he be in the position of an heir?!"
"Do you guys remember when he competed with Caleb Mamet for the new perfume release? As a result, he lost so much money. Later, due to the resort issue, the Drew family lost over 10 billion dollars. Iâve always doubted if he is actually Miss Winniâs son. After all, during the time Miss Winni was in charge of the Drew family, she was the business wonder woman of Libanan!"
Upon hearing the crowdâs whispers, Boyd Drew nearly passed out.
Sir Drewâs voice boomed: "Iâm here, despite my illness, to expose Boyd Drewâs identity in front of our ancestors, and tell everyone that the true heir to the Drew family is Caleb Mamet!"
Boyd Drewâs teeth were grinding, his once gentle face twisted in anger. He clenched his fists and raised his voice to stop him: "Sir Drew!"
He closed his eyes tightly, trying to control the turmoil within him. After a few deep breaths, he spoke trembling, "The news hasnât spread yet, to the outside world I am still a member of the Drew family! The family cannot bear such a huge change now, luckily all here are from the Drew family. Letâs all pretend that nothing happened today, preserving the face of the family. I am willing to relinquish my position to Caleb Mamet; I only want to keep Mr. Mametâs identity!"
The crowd was shocked.
Xaviera Evans sneered, "Boyd Drew sure has thick skin!"
Caleb Mamet glanced at Noah Reed nearby and smiled with hidden meaning, "Xaviera, do you think Boyd Drew knows that his actions are being livestreamed?"
Xavieraâs heart skipped a beat. Did Caleb discover the cameras around them?
She feigned calm and replied, "Are you saying someone is livestreaming? Thatâs great. If the event gets livestreamed, Boyd Drew wouldnât have a chance to recover!"
Boyd Drew revealed his true intentions, "Sir Drew! You are also a member of the Drew family, and Iâm sure you wouldnât want to see the Drew family bankrupt. If my identity is exposed, the familyâs reputation will be destroyed, and weâll be ridiculed. It will be a huge blow for the Drew family!"
His gaze was filled with malice as he roared at the Drew family members, "Donât forget that the shares of the Drew family are in my name, and I am still the legal heir. You all better keep todayâs incident to yourselves. If anyone dares to speak out, I will expel them from the Drew family! Believe me, I can revitalize the Drew Corporation and give you a better life!"
At this moment, Boyd Drew seemed to have figured it out. Even if Sir Drew exposed his identity, what could it do? Now that he held the shares, which made him the Drew familyâs second-largest shareholder, Ban Drew would help him once he woke up. The two of them would join forces and easily suppress this matter. The offshoots of the Drew family wouldnât dare to reveal anything for the sake of relying on the family to survive.
With that in mind, Boyd Drew suddenly took a deep breath, and his agitated emotions gradually calmed down. He smiled again with his usual gentle demeanor, "Sir Drew, thereâs nothing I can do if you wonât give me a way out! As long as youâre willing, I can immediately step down as the heir. Caleb and I are both members of the Drew family. From now on, I wonât fight for anything and will help Caleb revive the Drew Corporation. Iâve already made concessions, you shouldnât refuse, right?"
The room fell silent, and the members of the Drew family stared in disbelief. They couldnât help but think to themselves, Boyd Drewâs face is thicker than a city wall!
He was Jenny Greenâs son and had nothing to do with the Drew family. Now he held the familyâs money, saying "Iâve already made concessions," seemingly aggrieved.
If it wasnât for Jenny Green, Miss Winni wouldnât have died. If it wasnât for Boyd Drew, Caleb wouldnât have been wandering outside, tortured by Jenny. He could have returned to the Drew family and taken control of the Drew Corporation long ago.
However, upon careful thought, they felt that Boyd Drewâs words werenât entirely unreasonable. If his identity remained hidden, the Drew familyâs reputation would be preserved, minimizing the damage to the family. As offshoots of the Drew family, they had to rely on the main family for survival, so they dared not speak up casually.
Would they just stand by and watch Boyd Drew continue to stay in the Drew family, enjoying his Mr. Mamet status?
Xaviera Evans let out a cold laugh, breaking the silence. All eyes turned to her, and Boyd Drewâs body tensed up.
Vivian Drew was already nervous, so Xavieraâs sudden laugh scared her. In a meltdown, she screamed, "Xaviera Evans! Whatâs wrong with you?! What are you laughing at?!"
