"Those old-timers on the board were unhappy with your performance in the competition. They've had a few meetings about it and even drafted a contract. It's on your desk, and they want you to sign it, give up your executive rights to the company, and just take a fixed dividend each month."
This was outrageous!
Iris was so upset and worried that her voice was more agitated than usual, and Hunter, sitting nearby, could hear it.
Despite her anger at the board members, Molly kept her calm and asked softly, "Where are you now?"
"They've kicked me out of the company. I'm at home. Don't bother going to the company. I'm worried the old-timers will give you a hard time. Come home, and we'll figure something out together."
"We have to face this problem sooner or later." Molly thought that delaying the issue was not the solution, and they had no better ideas either.
