Chapter 2389
Mrs. Bishop sniffed and nodded. "When Kate returns to the company and finds a son-in- law for her, we will retire together. I have been tired for so many years."
For example, the Molly family, which was safe and powerful, had retired with her wife. She and Finn didn't have to suffer a lot in the company. Now the hair on Finn's temples had turned white.
Her heart still ached when she looked at it!
Finn also closed his eyes and nodded. "Well, we'll retire together after we settle Kate. If I have time, I'll talk to Chloe in person to see if I can get as much information as possible about Eathen and Samuel. I used to be her father. I think she will always give me face."
Mrs. Bishop nodded hurriedly. "Okay, okay. It's best for you to talk to her. She hates me, so she probably won't tell me everything."
Therefore, the couple decided on this matter. They asked Kate to go back to Lady Bishop and find another suitable son-in-law. After that,they retired and tried to find a way to contact the two beloved sons who always stayed outside.
However, things didn't go well. In half an hour, at the shareholders' meeting of Bishop Limited, there was only 50% of the shares who voted for Kate to return to Bishop Limited. For the sake of the interests of Bishop Limited, the remaining half opposed to Kate's return, so as to prevent Kate's return from affecting Bishop Limited again.
During the meeting, Kate was so angry that her eyes were red. She stood up and pointed to the more than 20 shareholders around the conference table. "Why do you object to me returning to Bishop Group? Don't forget that the boss of Bishop Group is the Bishop Family. I used to be the makeup developer of Bishop Group. I still have this ability now. I will only help her when I return to Bishop Group. Are you crazy?"
The shareholders next to the conference room were silent.
After a long while, a shareholder said disapprovingly, "Miss Kate, everyone is not confused. They are very clear-headed. They don't agree with you coming back because they know that your return can't help Ms. Bishop.
It's true that you used to be the representative of Bishop’s cosmetics, but you almost caused her to withdraw from the market. Your success is greater than merit. We shareholders have to ensure that our interests are not damaged. So please don't go back to the company for the time being. It's better not to come to the company in front of your First Miss at home!"
"What? You!" Kate pointed at him and was so angry that she was about to smoke. "It's just in the past, but it doesn't mean now! I'm going back to the company now!"
"Miss Kate, you have already caused damage to the company in the past. It is very beneficial, so we don't agree with you coming back." Another shareholder of the company also said.
Finn's face didn't look good. He didn't expect that even if he, the chairman of the Bishop Group, was present, half of the shareholders would oppose his daughter returning to the company.
Sure enough, it was because he, the chairman of the board, was about to retire, and the Bishop Group's shares were not as much as before. Could he not be as stubborn as before?
Finn lowered his eyes and his heart sank slowly.
"I say, all the shareholders." Mrs. Bishop forced a smile on her face and wanted to argue with these people. "I say, all the shareholders, Kate is in a hurry to go back to the company to compensate for her mistakes. You can't blame her."
Only then did the two shareholders, who had spoken, turn their faces away and stop talking, but they didn't seem to want to give in at all.
Mrs. Bishop pulled Kate's hand and motioned her to sit down first. It would be more rude to quarrel with these shareholders in the meeting.
Kate sat down with grievance. Her face was full of anger, and even her eyes were red.
"But no matter what, Bishop Group is still my Bishop Group's company. Our Bishop Group is also the company's boss. Everyone knows this." Looking at these shareholders, Mrs. Bishop's smile disappeared little by little. "We also know that everyone is very concerned about the negative impact and loss my daughter, Kate, has caused to the company However, the chairman is about to retire. Our Bishop Family has to cultivate a person who can inherit the family business. Can't we let Kate go back to the company without saying anything?"
When the directors heard this, they all looked at each other, including the shareholders of the shareholders who had just been shaken.
One of the shareholders of the board of directors asked Finn, "Chairman, are you going to let Miss Elder inherit the Bishop Family business and take charge of the company?"
The whispers around seemed to be endless, as if they all felt incredible about this matter.
When these voices fell on Kate's ears, they were as harsh as needles. Her face suddenly turned cold. "What do you mean? Am I not the daughter of Bishop Family? Can't I inherit the family business? Do you look down on women or what?"
Although she had never thought about inheriting the Bishop Family before, her goal was to marry into a wealthy family like the Ali Enterprises, or even higher than the Ali Enterprises. In this way, even if she could no longer compare with Chloe, she could not lose to a Nia!
"What's more, I can't let those who look down on me look down on me for the rest of their lives!
But when she heard these shareholders openly disagree with her inheriting the family business, she felt uncomfortable and unwilling!
"Miss Kate, we don't mean that. There are two female shareholders present, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Lan. One of them looked at the two female shareholders at the conference table and said, "This has nothing to do with men and women. We just think that Miss Kate is not suitable for inheriting the family business, and we can't take over the power of the Bishop Group in the future."
"That's right. If Miss Kate is in charge of the Bishop Group in the future, it's good that you don't retreat to the market and lose money. We, the shareholders, don't need to count on making money!" A more hot-tempered shareholder said to Finn, "Chairman, it's none of our business who will inherit the Bishop Family, but we can't hand over the Bishop Group to Miss Kate!"
"Yes, we're also against it!"
All the people at the meeting started to speak Finn could only say, "Be quiet, everyone. My wife is just making an analogy. After all, Kate is our daughter. She used to be responsible for developing the cosmetics of Bishop Group. Now that she has returned home, she naturally has to work for the company. Even I, the chairman of the board, am working. Even if my daughter is the eldest daughter of the Bishop Family, she will naturally work for the company."
Only then did the others calm down. Finn's words made everyone feel a bit more convinced.
"Mrs. Bishop, we were shocked by what you said just now." The shareholder said, "To be honest , the Bishop Family is the boss of the Bishop Group. Now you and the chairman only have this daughter. I guess you can only hand over the family business to Miss Kate. However, Miss Kate can inherit the family business. After all, this is the family business of you and the chairman, but Boss can't hand over the power of managing the company to Miss Kate due to his retirement!"
Everyone was afraid that after the Bishop Group was handed over to Kate, it would get worse and worse day by day, and no one would be able to make money.
Moreover, Miss Kate almost ruined the company a few years ago, and she had been in prison. If she handed over the position of the top leader of the Bishop Group to her now, it would definitely affect the reputation of the company!
No one wanted to lose money!
