Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 1776

Sean strode into the meeting room with a serious face. Following that, the attendees heard the jarring clicks of heels as though their owner was stepping on everyone's face. It sent a chill down everyone's spine.

"I was standing at the door for a while. I didn't want to interrupt you because you seemed to be having a great time." Smiling, Alyssa walked into the room. "But the meeting has to go on. Maybe leave the chatting for after the meeting."

Her presence caught everyone off guard, and the directors quietly replayed their conversations just now out of fear of having blurted out inappropriate remarks.

Alyssa came to a sudden halt behind Dominic, who dared not look at her. His heart leaped into his throat. He thought, "That little bitch is so intimidating!"

She said nothing to Dominic. Instead, she gracefully settled down at the head of the table with a composed smile.

She began, "Gentlemen, my father departed the country yesterday for his treatment and recovery abroad."

Carrying herself with an authoritative air, she announced, "I'm sure you have all received the official news of my appointment. I am KS Group's new president starting from the date of announcement. "There are two items on our agenda today. Firstly, we need to pick a vice president."

The directors exchanged amused looks.

"Ms. Alyssa," Edward Bates, the director who sided with Dominic, blurted out, "you might be Winston's daughter, but you are not fit to be the president yet with your current work experience. Although you had some success with KS Hotel, running a hotel is vastly different from running an entire company.

"You need at least two more years of on-the-ground training for us to vote you in as the president."

"He's right. Mr. Winston has made a rash decision by forcefully promoting you," the other directors chimed in.

Dominic betrayed a smirk when he heard the growing dissent. Noticing his smug look, Sean had the sudden urge to kick him in the teeth.

"Well, Mr. Bates, since you think my father has acted rashly, do you mind sharing a more thoughtful alternative?" Alyssa casually spun her office chair.

"We agree that Dominic Taylor is the best candidate as president because he is Mr. Winston's brother who has served the company for three decades."

Edward was as stubborn as a donkey. He would rather lend his support to Dominic, whom he was friendly with than subject himself to the leadership of a young woman.

He took the chance to put her in the spot. "The board should vote on this important matter. Mr. Winston might hold the final say, but he shouldn't be autocratic!"

"Oh!" Alyssa tapped her temples and spun her chair back to its original position. "Mr. Bates, thanks for reminding me of something really important about Mr. Dominic. "Mr. Dominic, you previously lost your money on your huge purchase of accrual bonds, and you misappropriated 50 million in company funds. Let's settle the score today, shall we?"

The directors looked astonished at her remark. Did Dominic really misuse 50 million dollars? Wouldn't that be an abuse of power?

To the directors, 50 million dollars might not be a large figure, but they would not let the matter slide after they were made aware of it.

Dominic jumped out of his seat, looking frantic and furious. "Lyse, what are you doing?"

She fixed a stern glare on him. "What do you mean? By the way, you should address me professionally at work. It's inappropriate of you to call me by my nickname in front of everyone." The directors watched the scene play out with bated breaths. They were surprised at Alyssa's courage to speak her mind, even if it meant offending the others.

Dominic's face turned a deeper shade of red. He barked, "Does my brother know about this?"

"He doesn't need to know. As the president of KS Group, I believe I can make decisions on this minor issue."
