Mommy，We Got a Husband
Chapter 323 You Have to Accept the Outcome

Marigold found it immensely difficult to accept such an outcome, and disbelief consumed her. Many of those present were her former subordinates. How could this be happening?

"Stellan, what kind of trick did you use?" Marigold asked Stellan, then turned to the executives present and angrily scolded, "Are you all crazy? Do you know what you're doing? You're letting an outsider run the company? Are you trying to bankrupt the company faster?"

At this moment, Marigold was frantically venting and questioning. The executives all lowered their heads in silence. Stellan then said, "Marigold, this was a democratic decision. You agreed to this method earlier. You have to accept the outcome."

"Stellan, you actually played dirty with me. You vicious woman." Marigold furiously stepped forward to grab Stellan's clothes.

Silas quickly stepped in to stop her. "Mrs. Knight, please calm down."

Seeing that Silas was protecting Stellan, Marigold was even more infuriated. The realization that she couldn't gain the upper hand in this moment only fueled her infuriation further. In a fit of rage, she stormed out of the room. After Marigold left, Stellan said, "From today until Alaric returns, I will temporarily assume the position of director of Nexus Innovations. I ask for everyone's support."

After Stellan finished speaking, Cormac applauded, followed by everyone else.

After the meeting, Stellan went to Alaric's office and sat at his desk. Her feeling was indescribable, and her heart ached.

Stellan didn't want to sit in this position. Alaric should have finished his first treatment and been recovering well. But instead, he was lying in bed, unconscious.

Stellan thought it was all her fault for being careless and unguarded. It was even more Marigold and the Vale Family's fault for causing Alaric such harm. She would never let them get away with it!

Just then, the office door opened, and Cormac walked in. Seeing him, Stellan fixed her emotions, stood up, and said, "Cormac, thank you for all your hard work."

The executives' support for Stellan today was largely due to Cormac's efforts behind the scenes. Hearing Stellan's words, Cormac smiled wryly, "It's nothing. Helping you is also helping myself. You saw it; if she had taken over, I'd be out of here by now."

Stellan just smiled and then looked at Cormac's arm, asking, "How's your injury?"

"It's fine. It'll be better in a few days." Cormac looked at Stellan with concern and said, "Taking up the role of acting director can be exhausting, especially when you're new to managing the company. Then what about Alaric? If you're busy, then he..."

"Caspian, Harry, and Elisa are on vacation. They'll take care of him during the day, and I'll take over at night." "Can the three kids handle it?"

"Don't underestimate them. When it comes to looking after Alaric, they're just as capable as I am," Stellan said.

"That's good." Cormac handed her the documents he was holding and said, "These are the company's basic documents. Alaric had Silas give them to me when I arrived. Now I'm giving them to you. Silas has been Alaric's assistant for many years and knows all the work matters.Ask him if you have any questions."

"Okay," Stellan said. "Thank you for everything you've done, Cormac. I'll give you some time off. Come back when your arm is fully healed."

"No need. I can..." Cormac started.

"I'm your boss now. That's an order," Stellan said sternly.

Since Stellan insisted, Cormac agreed. "Alright then. I'll go see Alaric. I haven't visited him since he was discharged."

"Okay," Stellan said.

After Cormac left, Stellan began to seriously review the documents. She wished her tenure as acting director was brief, but she was determined to give her best for as long as she was needed, ensuring no complications for Alaric. After leaving Nexus Innovations, Marigold got into her car and immediately took a pill. Joe continued to persuade her, "Mrs. Knight, please don't get angry. It's bad for your health."

Marigold said, "How can I not be angry? I am the head of the Knight Family. Even Alaric took over the company from me. If I want to take back the company, he can't say anything. Now that wretched woman is above me. Who does she think she is?"

Seeing Marigold so furious, Joe didn't dare to speak anymore and just stayed by her side, not even daring to breathe loudly.

"It's all Ambrose's fault, that useless thing!" With that, Marigold called Ambrose.

Today was Ambrose's discharge day. The doctor wanted him to stay a few more days, but Ambrose insisted on leaving.

Seeing Marigold's call again, Ambrose not only rejected but also blocked her number. After such a fallout, there was no possibility of further cooperation.

"Mr. Vale, Ms. Storm has now become the acting director of Nexus Innovations. It looks like Alaric won't be getting better anytime soon, even if he doesn't die," Denny said happily.

"Yes, he's in a vegetative state again. Wonderful!" Ambrose exclaimed.

During their encounter at the hospital, Stuart had failed to kill Alaric. While Ambrose felt deeply disappointed by this outcome, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. Given Alaric's current condition, he was essentially living on borrowed time, and Ambrose knew that his demise was inevitable.

"What has Stuart been up to these days?" Ambrose asked. Since he was hospitalized, Stuart hadn't visited him.

Denny replied, "At first, he was furious and wanted to kill Alaric. When he couldn't, he started dealing with Todd's funeral. He took Todd's ashes back home and held a grand funeral there. After that, Stuart will come back here to hold a memorial service."

Ambrose snorted coldly with hatred. "Todd is dead, and he still gets such a grand send-off."

As a member of the Vale Family, Ambrose should have been informed about Todd's grand funeral, but he was completely ignored.

Seeing Ambrose's thoughts, Denny said, "It's better that Stuart didn't call you. You can have some peace and focus on recovering. Even if Stuart doesn't acknowledge you, you're still his son. Now that Todd is dead, who else could take the director's position but you?"

Yes, even if Stuart was still in good health, how many more years could he work? Now that Todd was dead, Ambrose was the only son left. Who else could take the director's position but him?

"Of the two things I'm after now, the director's seat is already mine; it's just Stellan left to handle." Ambrose's eyes showed both pain and regret. "hether Alaric lives or dies, I will have her, my Stellan!"
