Chapter 169 Saving the Actress

After opening those files, Nathan fell into silence.

In front of everyone, Nathan let out a long sigh and said, "Before leaving the company, I really didn't expect to have left this matter unresolved."

Before everyone present, Nathan sighed again, "My health hasn't been good lately. I was planning to transfer my shares to Albert after finishing the last project on my hands, then head abroad to retire. I didn't expect this project to have already started recently. Only I know the details of this project—if I suddenly leave, it would be abandoning it."

A flash of coldness passed through Albert's eyes. Why did this have to happen at such a critical moment?

"Since Nathan's health is poor, hand it over to your subordinates for transition. I'm sure your capable assistants can handle this responsibility," Albert said with a slight smile.

He seemed to be considering Nathan's perspective.

Amelia slammed the documents onto the table with a bang, her expression stern, "Nathan, you're the only one who knows the details of this project. I know your health isn't good, but suddenly abandoning the project and doing nothing—wouldn't that disappoint everyone working under you? Besides, you seem to be standing here just fine. It can't be that serious, can it?"

Her words seemed aggressive.

However, this was perfectly normal. In the vast Wilson Corporation, their confrontations were well known to everyone.

Nathan's expression also turned displeased, "Ms. Wilson, if my health weren't poor, why would I be willing to leave the position I've held for years? As a company veteran, I've devoted my heart and soul to the company—everyone can see that."

"Since you've devoted your heart and soul, then finish this project before you leave. Otherwise, your words would ring hollow."

Amelia's attitude was forceful.

Nathan was momentarily speechless.

Albert's expression also darkened. He had planned for Nathan to announce his resignation at the board meeting, then smoothly take over Nathan's shares, thus becoming Wilson Corporation's second most powerful figure.

But Amelia had disrupted everything.

"Ms. Wilson, aren't you being a bit too aggressive?" Albert questioned, raising his eyebrows.

Amelia's eyes narrowed slightly, her tone cold, "Albert, from the beginning until now, you've been desperate for Nathan to resign. Though I don't know what methods you used to make Nathan transfer his shares to you, your eagerness is rather unseemly, isn't it?"

Albert became furious and stood up from his seat.

"Amelia, what nonsense are you spouting?"

"Nonsense?" Amelia didn't back down, sneering coldly, "Whether you used underhanded methods, you know in your heart. In any case, Nathan must see this project through to the end before leaving. If it delays cooperation with third parties, I will definitely pursue his legal responsibility."

Her attitude was forceful, unquestionably firm.

In the conference room, the directors on Oliver's side naturally stood with Amelia.

The directors on Nathan's side naturally wouldn't speak up for Albert either.

The drawback of Albert operating behind the scenes was this very point.

Few people in the board were his allies.

Moreover, his power wasn't great enough. Offending Amelia for Albert's sake wasn't worth it.

For a moment, no one spoke.

"If everyone has nothing important to discuss, then this meeting is adjourned."

Amelia organized the documents on the table, then was the first to leave the conference room.

Following that, the other directors also left one after another.

Soon, only Nathan and Albert remained in the conference room.

Only then did Albert's expression change. He slammed his fist on the conference table, his face dark.

Nathan looked helpless, "I didn't expect Amelia would make things so difficult for me either."

"She's not making things difficult for you—she doesn't want to see your shares transferred to me just like that!"

Albert gritted his teeth, hatred surging in his heart.

He truly wished he could tear Amelia to pieces.

"Currently, I have no way to leave the board. I'll finish this project as quickly as possible, and then I'll transfer the shares to you as agreed."

Nathan said somewhat helplessly.

Albert nodded slightly. This was the only option for now.

Nathan turned and left, unable to suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth. He'd finally managed to stay.

Amelia returned to her office. Just as she sat down and smoothed her skirt, her phone rang.

She picked it up and saw it was a thank-you text from Nathan.

Amelia smiled slightly, then put down her phone.

Then Hannah pushed open the office door and walked in.

"Ms. Wilson, the plan is complete."

As soon as Hannah entered, her face carried a hint of mystery.

The plan she referred to was how to get Victoria out of the hospital.

Previously, Victoria had found an opportunity to send Amelia her complete hospital schedule, making it convenient for Amelia to devise an action plan.

As long as they could get Victoria out of the hospital, it would be enough to stand against Albert on equal footing.

As for Albert's background, Amelia had finished investigating.

Years ago, his family business had incurred massive debts. Later, he married his current wife, whose family provided the funds that gave him the opportunity to join Wilson Corporation.

The subsequent enterprises established in his current wife's name—though all under her name—were actually funded by his wife, with Albert in control.

To be precise, if Albert's wife learned about everything Albert was doing outside, he would certainly be utterly ruined.

The immediate priority was concrete evidence.

Hannah had already outlined the entire plan. What they needed to do next was take Victoria away.

"Hannah, let's prepare."

Amelia gave her a meaningful look.

Hannah immediately made an OK gesture.

The next day.

Amelia and Hannah arrived at the hospital on time. The hospital director personally received them and led them to the VIP room.

After hearing their plan, the director expressed full cooperation.

Victoria would have her ultrasound examination in Exam Room 3 today. There would be a gap of more than ten minutes when her guard could only wait outside.

Amelia would disguise herself as the examining doctor and enter the exam room. When the time came, a professional doctor would go out to discuss matters concerning the pregnant woman with the accompanying person, buying time for them to leave the hospital.

In the afternoon, Victoria's examination time arrived. After watching Victoria enter the exam room, the guard waited outside.

Amelia and Hannah had been waiting inside for quite some time.

Victoria was very pleasantly surprised to see them.

"You came..."

Amelia handed her a dress and had her change into it.

Immediately after, they quickly retreated through the back door of the exam room.

Just as they were about to evacuate, an accident occurred.
