Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 1041

The moment those words left his mouth, the whole room went tense. Faces changed. A wave of objections rolled in right away.

“Mr. Williams, how could you even think about handing the Smith Group over to that kid? Don’t forget, he’s the reason the Adams Group ended up like this!”

“Exactly. If he hadn’t teamed up with the Williams Group, we wouldn’t be struggling now.”

“That’s right, I don’t agree with letting Larry Adams take over the Adams Group either.”

But for every protest, there was someone ready to back Larry up. The people who had always believed in him spoke out.

“I actually think Larry would do a great job running the Adams Group. He’s got some serious talent, you can’t deny that.”

“I agree. Before Larry came back, everyone thought Brian Adams was the most capable. But Larry solved problems Brian couldn’t fix for months, and he did it right after returning. That says a lot. Plus, Brian was involved in a kidnapping and he’s basically guaranteed to get convicted. Even if he does get out, do you really want to support a guy like that? Wouldn’t that just be embarrassing? Honestly, giving the Adams Group to Larry is the smartest move.”

Meanwhile, Mr. Adams’s other son and daughter, who had already tried to sway a few shareholders, were having their people speak up too. But then Earle Warren, Edwin Warren’s son, stood up and shot them all down.
