The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1492

Israel frantically recounted Stella’s supposed treachery, describing her as a devious, shameless schemer.

"The live stream of the signing… all of you were there!" he concluded, his voice ringing with desperation. "Everyone can testify for me that Stella agreed to the share exchange. So, even if the agreement was burned, the contract we signed is still legally binding!"

However, Zane suddenly spoke up. "Mr. Williams, it's true we watched the live stream and saw you sign the papers. But we never saw the specific clauses of the agreement. A verbal promise doesn't hold up in court, does it? Everything has to be based on the written contract."

Several shareholders loyal to Nora's faction immediately played dumb, chiming in with their agreement. The neutral shareholders just tried to smooth things over, remaining noncommittal.

These were all seasoned veterans of the business world; they instantly sensed that this was all a setup—a trap designed to ensnare Israel. Now, Stella still had her original shares and had acquired Israel's common stock on top of that. It was obvious Israel was finished. Siding with a defeated general at this point would be foolish.

Watching their reactions, Israel was dumbfounded. "You… you're all committing perjury!"

While a significant number of shareholders still supported him, it was a case of he-said, she-said. Even if this went to court, with the company's own shareholders giving conflicting testimony, a clear judgment would be difficult to reach.

President Crawford added, "Mr. Williams, we truly didn't see the contents of the contract you signed with Stella. All we heard were your verbal agreements. We're just telling the truth. Someone must have saved a recording of that live stream, right? Why don't we review it?"
