Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2366

Why should I bother dealing with those problems? Dustin clenched his fists in an attempt to rein in his temper, willing himself to calm down.

"All of you must listen to me and do as you're told."

Dustin was very domineering when it came to managing the company. Every decision had to go through him for approval before being carried out. He could be very unreasonable even he was not sure of what he was doing.

"I'm the boss here."

"Is that so?" Suddenly, familiar male voice rang out.

"Mr. Norton!"

"You're here, Mr. Norton!"

A dozen or so shareholders were overjoyed at the sight of him.

"Things are going to get interesting now that Mr. Norton is here."

"With Mr. Norton here, there'll be hope for the company."

Larry walked toward Dustin while exuding an imposing aura.

"What are you doing here?" Dustin spat as he glowered at the man in front of him.

"What's wrong? Am I not welcome here? Since this is a shareholders' meeting, of course I'm required to attend," Larry said matter-of-factly.

Oh yeah? Well, you're not welcome here! Dustin's eyes gleamed with malice.

"Sorry, but the shareholders' meeting is over. Everyone has been dismissed. You're too late," he replied in a clipped tone.

One of the shareholders boldly contradicted, "No, Mr. Norton. We have yet to devise a proper plan of action. We were waiting for you."

"Yes, Mr. Norton. We were all waiting for you to come," the other shareholders chimed in enthusiastically.

Dustin's eyes grew ominous as he faced the rowdy shareholders.

Are these old slickers openly casting me aside? Clenching his fists, he turned around to leave.

"Mr. Silverman, it's been quite a long time since you took up the position as president of Norton Corporation. Mind sharing your thoughts about your experience so far?"

What kind of a fu*king question is this? Dustin eyed the man suspiciously as he tried to figure out his motive.

"I don't think so. I have other things to attend to. I'll be taking my leave now." He was about to take off but was stopped once again.

"Don't go. I suggest you stay a little longer, or you'll never get to enjoy the feeling of being a president again," Larry said in a meaningful tone.

"What are you trying to say?" Dustin demanded.

"Here, this is my gift to you." Larry shoved the evidence he had obtained into Dustin's hand.

Then, he turned to the assistant beside him. "Hand them one copy each."

"Yes, sir."

Soon, all the shareholders each held a document of proof in their hands.

"Goodness! What on earth is going on? Does this mean Silverman's shares prospectus is fake?"

"Yeah! How could he do such a thing? This is illegal!"

"Thank God we still have Mr. Norton, or Norton Corporation would be finished for good!"

"Just look. How long has it only been? But the company is already on the verge of bankruptcy because of Dustin Silverman!" The shareholders started discussing amongst themselves in hushed tones. Looking at the proof in his hands, Dustin was shocked and lost for words.

"T-This... Where did you get this? This must be fake!" he stammered out.

Indeed, it was fake-the copy in his possession.

"Just give up, Dustin. Stop wasting your time fighting a losing battle," Larry cautioned.

Dustin sneered. "You must've forged this!"

Human nature was peculiar at times. When a person lied on a frequent basis, he would gradually get so wrapped up in his own lies that he started believing everything he said and did. "Stop lying to yourself! I bet you don't even know what that shareholder's name is, how old he is, and where he is now, do you?" Larry refuted.

"No. Impossible. You're lying!" Dustin snarled, his emotions spiraling out of control.

"Hey, this proof was given to Mr. Norton by that shareholder who has disappeared for a long time."

"I must say that Mr. Norton is really capable. He even managed to track down that shareholder!"

"Exactly my thoughts! This young man has a promising future ahead of him! I feel at ease leaving Norton Corporation in his hands."
