Chapter 10 The Removal of the President!

At that moment, at the second son's house.

With Charlotte's help, over a dozen dishes were already on the table,

The whole family sat around the dining table.

"Mom, Charlotte, Emily, you can go ahead and eat. I'll feed dad first," Michael brought a large bowl of hot and sour soup and took off his apron as he spoke.

Sophia and Emily had started eating and couldn't be bothered with him. It was Charlotte who stood up and said with some concern, "How about I go with you?"

Thinking carefully, their father had been discharged from the hospital for over a year, and his own biological daughter, Charlotte, had never fed him a meal. On the other hand, Michael, the son-in-law who was constantly criticized, didn't even have time for his own meal and had to feed their father first.

At this moment, she finally realized that although Michael couldn't help the family earn money, he was actually the one who worked the hardest.

"No need," Michael smiled and waved his hand. "I can manage on my own. You've been under a lot of pressure these days and you don't have much appetite. You've been losing weight. So, eat more today and enjoy yourself."

After he finished speaking, he went into the Kitchen and carried a bowl of steamed eggs upstairs.

This steamed egg not only contained eggs but also added fish, meat, shrimp, vegetables, and mashed everything together, making it very nutritious.

"What's the matter? Feeling sorry for him?" Sophia asked when she saw Charlotte looking at Michael going upstairs.

"Mom, Michael has it tough. It's normal for me to feel sorry for him, right?" Charlotte sat down with a pout.

"No backbone!" Sophia glared at her and said as she peeled shrimp, "Let me tell you, although he helped you secure a loan of a hundred million, that money needs to be repaid. I won't recognize him as my son-in-law just because of that."

"In your mother's eyes, someone like Daniel, a rich young man from a good family, is the best candidate for a son-in-law. Where can you find a man who is as useless as this one, doing chores like a nanny all day? It's embarrassing to say it out loud, and even I find it embarrassing."

Charlotte looked at Joshua in confusion. "What happened?"

"What's the matter?" Joshua sneered. "I mean, Charlotte, are you really that foolish? Do you still believe that the gold card Michael gave you is genuine?"

"What? The gold card is fake?"

Sophia exclaimed upon hearing this.

"It can't be fake!" Charlotte was determined. "I used it to apply for a loan, and everything went smoothly. I even got expedited service. If nothing goes wrong, I will receive a loan of one billion before ten o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Hahaha!"

Joshua burst into laughter. "That's because Mr. Hughes wasn't there. The person who processed your loan made a mistake. Once the information reaches Mr. Hughes for approval, he will realize the gold card is fake. When he makes a phone call, get ready to be arrested by the police, haha!"

"Believe whatever you want. The gold card is real, and the head of the credit department would never make a mistake!" Charlotte remained steadfast, refusing to believe that the gold card could be fake.

"People can make mistakes," Joshua sneered. "Do you even know what a real gold card looks like? Daniel said that the back of a genuine gold card has the cardholder's signature. Does the one that idiot gave you have it?"

Charlotte thought for a moment and shook her head. She hadn't seen the cardholder's signature on the back of the gold card.

"Hahaha!"

Joshua laughed even harder. "Every big client's gold card has the cardholder's signature. Your card doesn't have it, without a doubt, it's a fake!"

"It's impossible! If you don't believe me, wait for the loan to come in tomorrow, and you will see it's genuine!" Charlotte remained resolute.

"Tomorrow, the police will come to arrest you!" Joshua said sternly. "I don't know what nonsense that idiot fed you, but you still believe the gold card is real. I see you as a brainless woman with a big chest!"

"You..."

"What about me? Unless you see it with your own eyes, you won't give up. Let me make a call and let you hear it for yourself!" Joshua interrupted Charlotte and dialed Citibank's customer service number, putting it on the speakerphone.

Charlotte's chest trembled with anger, but she still wanted to see how Joshua would prove that the gold card was fake.

Soon, the call connected, and a pleasant female voice came through. "Hello, may I help you?"

"Miss, it's like this," Joshua said. "I want to ask, is it true that the back of your bank's gold card for big clients doesn't have the cardholder's signature? Does that mean it's fake?"

"Sir, for our bank's gold card for big clients, it is specially issued to our top depositors, and the back of each card has the cardholder's signature. If there is no signature, then it is definitely fake," the customer service representative explained.

Upon hearing this, Charlotte's face turned pale.

Joshua looked at her triumphantly, wanting to crush her hope. He asked again, "What about when there is no cardholder's signature, but there are many dragon patterns on the back?"

"Sir, our bank's gold card for big clients does not have dragon patterns on the back," the customer service representative confirmed.

To be continued...

"There is no dragon, please do not use counterfeit VIP gold cards, otherwise you will be held legally responsible."

Upon hearing the customer service representative's words, Charlotte's face instantly turned pale.

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

Joshua hung up the phone, looking even more triumphant as he stared at Charlotte. He gloated,

"You should have heard that. Are you finally giving up now? Should I report you to the police or not?"

"No! Please don't!" Sophia urgently intervened. Charlotte was the backbone of their family, and if she was caught, their entire family would be ruined.

"How could this happen?" Charlotte felt completely disoriented. She had successfully completed the loan procedures herself, and the head of the credit department had also seen the gold card.

How could it be fake?

"Haha!" Joshua laughed proudly. "That's because that useless Michael found out that tomorrow, you were going to remarry Daniel. He couldn't accept it, so he wanted to ruin you. He forged the counterfeit VIP gold card to make you apply for the loan, burdening you with the crime of fraud, and then have the police arrest you. He thought that Daniel wouldn't want you anymore after that."

"What a malicious scheme! He really went to great lengths for you. He came up with such a vicious plan. I must say, I am impressed by him," Joshua said.

Upon hearing Joshua's words, it was as if all the energy had been drained from her body. She weakly sat down on the sofa, consumed by terror.

She had been so happy when she got the gold card, but now she felt nothing but disappointment.

She had never imagined that Michael would be this kind of person.

He had truly let her down!

"I hereby announce," suddenly, the elder stood up from the sofa and said solemnly, "Charlotte will no longer serve as the CEO of the Wright Group as of today. Joshua will take over. The Harris family will no longer have any ties with the Carter family and will not receive any future dividends from the Wright Group. This announcement takes immediate effect and will be published in tomorrow's newspaper."

"No, Grandpa!" Sophia cried desperately. "Robert is your own son. If you don't give him dividends, where will we get money for his medicine? What are we going to eat as a family?"

"Grandpa, you've gone too far!" Emily was trembling with anger, expressing her discontent. "It was that useless person who forged the gold card. My sister is also a victim. Why should she be removed as the CEO? Why should our family be kicked out of the Carter family?"

"Then let me tell you on behalf of Grandpa why your sister is being removed as the CEO and why your family is being kicked out of the Carter family," Joshua said. "It's because your sister used the gold card that useless person forged to apply for the loan. The information has already been reported, and Mr. Hughes will report her to the police. If we don't remove her from the CEO position, it would be fatal for the Wright Group."

"The reason your family is being kicked out of the Carter family is also for the sake of the Carter family."

"The reputation of the Carter family won't allow any loan scammers to exist. One morsel of mouse droppings can spoil the whole pot of porridge," said Mr. Carter sternly.

"I just submitted the documents today. Can't we just retrieve them tomorrow and resolve this small matter? Why blow it out of proportion?" Emily argued, still refusing to accept the situation.

"Retrieve them?" Joshua chuckled. "Do you think the bank is owned by your family? If they want to report it, they will. If they want to retrieve it, they will. Being so casual about it would only create chaos in the bank."

Emily was left speechless.

Just then, Mr. Carter spoke up, "I will reimburse you for Robert's medical expenses. If you don't want your family to starve, let Charlotte divorce that useless man and marry Daniel. The 50-million-yuan dowry will be enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your lives."

After saying that, Mr. Carter walked away with his cane, followed by the smug expressions of the eldest couple and the third couple.

Joshua then arrogantly taunted Charlotte, "If you're released after serving your sentence and can't find a job, you can come to Wright Corporation. I'll fire the janitor for you and give you a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan. That should be enough for you, right?"

"Get lost! Just get lost!!!" Charlotte shouted in a fit of anger.

"If you want me to leave, then give me the keys to the BMW. Since you're no longer the CEO, the CEO's car should belong to me," Joshua demanded, reaching out his hand.

Charlotte grabbed the keys and threw them at him.

"Hahaha!!!" Joshua laughed uproariously as he caught the keys and swaggered away.

"Wuwu..." Finally, unable to bear such a devastating blow, Charlotte broke down in tears, covering her face.

Sophia was furious. She rushed into the Kitchen, grabbed a Kitchen knife, and screamed upstairs, "You worthless piece of junk! Get down here! If I don't kill you today, my name isn't Sophia!!!"
