“Dismissed?” Everyone was shocked by Alma’s announcement.
“Do you have the authority to do that? My daughter was personally appointed by the patriarch of the
Nicholson family! You have no right to dismiss her!” Florence was furious.
“Exactly! Ever since Dahlia assumed her position as chairman, she has brought in great revenue for
thepany! She managed to bring in over 500 million in profit within just a month! What right do you
have to dismiss her from her position?” Julie was extremely pissed by Alma’s actions.
Before Dahlia became chairman of Nicholson Corp., it had always been in a state of loss. It was only
through Dahlia’s hard work and determination to reform thepany that it was brought back to life.
Now that it was finally starting to pick up, Alma was going to dismiss her as she wished. How
ungrateful!
“I am now standing in as head of the family, so what I say goes! None of you have the right to interfere
with my decisions!” Alma bellowed.
“Y-you you’re too much!” Florence and Julie were beyond furious, but there was absolutely nothing they
could do.
As for Dahlia, she only watched with a dark expression and said nothing. She might be the chairman,
but a majority of thepany’s shares were held by the Nicholsons. She had no grounds to object to
their decision.
“Madam Alma, are you sure you want to do this?” Dustin squinted his eyes at Alma
“What? Are you afraid now? It’s toote! My decision is final, and nobody is changing that!” Alma was
arrogant, thinking she had the upper hand.
“Madam Alma, don’t say I didn’t warn you, but I’m the only one who can cure you. If you insist on being
stubborn, I’m afraid your days are numbered,” Dustin said coolly
“Nonsense! Do you think I’d buy your treacherous lies?” Alma looked annoyed.
“It’s up to you whether you believe me or not. After all, it’s not my life that’s at stake.” Dustin seemed
unbothered.
“Hmph! What a load of crap! I don’t want to waste my breath with the likes of you. Let’s go!” With that,
Alma turned and left with her men in tow.
She had not been able to find fault with Dahlia in the past. But now that the opportunity presented itself,
she would grab ahold of it and use it against Dahlia. She was going to be merciless.
“This is all your fault, Rhys! If you didn’t attack them, Dahlia would not have been dismissed!” The
moment Alma left, Florence unleashed all her anger on Dustin.
“That’s right! Dahlia had a bright future ahead of her, even possibly bing the next head of the
Nicholson family! But because of you, now everything’s gone down the drain!” Julieined.
“This isn’t Dustin’s fault. He did that for us.” Dahlia spoke up for Dustin because, though he acted
impulsively, he did nothing wrong. his way through them to protect Dustin. The men he brought with
him today were all elites in their gang. Several bodyguards were no match for them at all. In just
minutes, all the Nicholson bodyguards were on the ground, all battered up.

Alma’s expression darkened further at the sight. Julian, too, was beyond furious. He hadn’t brought any
men with him, as he had rushed over in a hurry. Had he known this would happen, he would have
brought the best guards the Nicholson family had along with him.
“Dahlia Nicholson! How dare you! Are you trying to go against the family?” Alma roared. Seeing that
she couldn’t use force against them, she immediately turned on Dahlia and put the me on her.
“Madam Alma, I was the one who beat them up. If there’s anything you’re not happy with, you should
come at me instead,” Dustin reminded her nonchntly.
“Hah! You lot are all in this together!” Alma yelled angrily. “Dahlia Nicholson! You let your guards go
against your elders and harm your family. I am officially dismissing you from your position! From now
on, you are no longer chairman of Nicholson Corp.!”
