Chapter 504
However, the more Renee behaved this way, the more worrying it was.
Liam thought venting negative emotions was necessary. How Renee constantly repressed her emotions might make matters
worse in the long run. Therefore, Liam and Leia discussed the need to find a way for Renee to vent.
After the discussion, Leia patted her chest and reassured Liam confidently, “Fine. I understand. I’m good at that. Just leave it to
me!”
Leia finally broke up with William after he was rescued. She had been suffocating anyway and could not wait to vent!
At the moment, Renee was sitting in a conference room at Azure Group headquarters. It was an important meeting with the
company’s executives.
Renee was not nominated to hold any position in Azure Group over the past few years. Liam had made all the major decisions
as the company president. Even so, the executives knew Renee was the soul of the company.
Azure Group was just a small technology company in the industry. Without Renee’s effort behind the scenes, competitors in the
industry would have eaten Azure Group.
Even so, many of these executives disliked Renee. The first on the list was Liam’s third sister, Laura Osborne.
The Osborne family had eight children, and the eldest to the fifth were all girls. Liam was the only boy in the Osborne family and
naturally took on the responsibility of carrying on the family’s legacy.
Liam had five elder sisters. His third sister Laura was the strongest and most business-minded. She had been managing the
Osborne family business together with Liam.
In the beginning, Liam requested his father for money to set up Azure Group, saying he wanted to break into the field of
communication technology. The Osborne family business started in the gray market and revolved around it.
Liam’s family laughed at him for his sudden career change. They thought he set up the company to pick up girls, and the
company would collapse sooner and later.
After all, H Group had about seventy to eighty percent market share as the leader in the communication technology industry.
How could Liam compete?
Liam’s third sister Laura was the only one supportive of him. She even invested in the company and became the third largest
shareholder of Azure Group.
As Azure grew, so did Laura’s appetite. She was no longer happy to have someone outside the family with a higher authority
above her.
Therefore, when Renee spoke, Laura objected immediately.
“From what Miss Everheart is saying, a huge capital injection is required in opening new R&D and manufacturing sites. It’s too
risky and not in line with Azure Group’s current plans. I disagree.”
Four years ago, Renee wanted Azure Group to build its own product development and manufacturing base. At that time, the
majority of the top management, including Liam, opposed her proposal.
However, because Renee insisted, Liam finally overcame the objection and secretly diverted a large amount of money from the
Osborne family to support her unconditionally. Unfortunately, the production and R&D center was not profitable and lost all the
money.
Laura questioned Renee with a stern expression, “The investment for a company to build its own R&D and manufacturing base
is enormous. The Osborne family has depleted much of its financial resources in supporting Azure Group over the years. We’ve
only been able to get some relief, and now you propose this. I can’t help but wonder, Miss Everheart, are you trying to lead Azure
Group to glory or its end?
