Chapter 247: It Is Indeed A Take Over



Chapter 247: It Is Indeed A Take Over

A devilish smirk graced Stella's lips when she heard his question. Her eyes roamed around the table, looking intently at the people as she answered him. 

"You are right Mr. Parker. It is indeed a take over. Levinson's Corp. will be taking over R&E Group of Companies after two weeks." A couple of gasps followed her reply as her subordinates looked at each other with their baffled expressions.

"But, Boss the company is barely running. Most of their investors had pulled out their investments and the board of directors is seething in anger. The company is on the verge of bankruptcy." One of her directors spoke up. 

Her delicate eyebrows scrunched up and a frown marred her forehead. "Do you think I don't know all of that?" She rolled her eyes and chuckled lightly. "Whether you or anyone else in this room like it or not, Levinson's Corp. will take over R&E Group of Companies in the span of the next two weeks. Either you can do your work and complete the tasks within the said amount of time, or I don't mind signing on your resignation letters." 

Heaving out a tired sigh, Stella stood up from her chair and smacked her palm on the wooden table. "The meeting is adjourned." She spoke up before heading out of the meeting room, leaving the group of baffled people to deal with their own problems. 

She couldn't care any less about what they might think about her, she could always bring in new people if they ever resigned. She wasn't the one who needed them to work for her, they were the ones who needed to work for her. It was hard for them to turn a blind eye to the huge amount of money which was their pay.

She was almost before the door of her office when she heard the sound of footsteps coming in her direction. She turned her face slightly only to find that it was David. 'What took him so long?' She frowned and slowed down her steps as she waited for him to catch-up with her. 

Once the duo were inside her office, Adam began to question her in his own voice after making sure that the door was closed and locked. "What was that?" 

"What was what?" Stella tried to act clueless before him even though she knew exactly what he was referring to. 

"Stella?" He took a step closer to her, narrowing his eyes at her figure. He was too shocked after hearing her reply earlier in the meeting room. Moreover, the lady before him didn't even bother to inform him prior to the meeting about it. 

"Didn't you hear me earlier?" She pursed her lips in an adorable pout as she stepped closer to him, wrapping her arms around his neck as she stood on her tiptoes. 

"You shouldn't be stressing yourself with such a trivial matter. I will take care of it once this whole fiasco is over." He gave her a troubled look as he wrapped his arms around her lower back. 

"I won't be stressing myself with it. I have you by my side. And you said it yourself that it's a trivial matter. I can handle it. I just want to put an end to what you started. I want to stake a claim at every single thing they took from my parents, Adam. I want to do it for myself, for us. I want to be someone who can proudly stand next to you without people pointing fingers at you, at us. I don't want our children to ever hear what people talk behind us." She gazed into his brown eyes and explained her reason to him. 

Burying her face in his muscular chest, she hugged him close. "Just have faith in me." She muttered softly against his chest. 

Heaving out a long sigh, he placed a lingering kiss on the top of her head as he hugged her back. He asked her to leave the matter for him to deal with not because he didn't have faith in her capabilities. She was more than capable to do it. He was just too worried that she would stress herself out and neglect her own health. 

"I always had faith in you, my baby girl. And I will continue to have faith in you." He pressed another kiss on top of her crown. "I can never doubt your abilities, you silly fool. But you need to promise me one thing." 

"What?" Stella muttered. 

"You won't stress yourself even a little bit. The moment something problematic comes up, you will ask for my help. And I don't want to hear any excuses. You are pregnant and I can't let the mother of my children to bear any stress." He sternly replied to her. 

His words touched her heart and her eyes began to tear up. "I promise." She murmured under her breath as she hugged him tightly. "I love you." 

"I love you too, my little vixen." Adam replied her back only to be punched on his shoulder at the way he had addressed her. 

"Ouch!" Adam winced slightly as her fisted hand  made contact with his shoulder. 

Stella rolled her eyes at her husband, still clinging to him. She knew that he was just faking it as she hadn't used much force. She continued to hug him tightly as she waited for his response, but it didn't come. She pursed her lips and moved her face away as to give him a light scolding on his lack of response. But her words got stuck inside her mouth as her eyes landed on his pained facial expressions. 

Moving herself away from his figure, she cupped his face as he eyes gazed at him with concern. "Are you okay?" That was the only thing she could bring her panicked self to say. 

She saw him nod his head slightly, but even a blind person could tell that the man lying. The beads of sweat glistening over his forehead, and his scrunched up face was enough of a proof of his attempt at lying. 

"Adam!" She yelled suddenly when the man before her began to lose his consciousness.
