Ustadz It's my Imam
Chapter 46. The Shareholders Meeting
The night before the shareholders meeting.
Dimanaion Anderson is at Daddy Martin's office, and Brian and Daddy Martin are discussing a decision on the threat posed by Papa Doni and Dayyan.
"Daddy how's tomorrow? What are we gonna do?" ask Brian.
"We may have to convince our shareholders to keep investing their funds in our company"
"Then how's the threat Dad?"
"Daddy was sure they wouldn't do that. Daddy knew Daddy's best friend. He's a man who doesn't have the same heart as anyone else" Daddy Martin said confidently.
"Daddy is sure they're not coming tomorrow?"
"Yes Daddy sure as hell because they usually just send their assistant. So we don't have to be afraid"
"So according to Daddy when do we hold a press conference to clarify what really happened dad?"
"Daddy feels better and right after the company's anniversary event. You know that Bri shareholders meeting and our company anniversary is only two days different"
"Daddy is sure they will patiently wait for two days from the time they love it?"
"Daddy isn't really sure they can be patient either. But hopefully they can understand our condition now"
"Are we just for Dad's time?"
"You mean?" ask Daddy Martin confused.
"Tomorrow Daddy's leading the meeting and I'll be holding the press conference" Brian suggested.
"No! You have to come with Daddy tomorrow at the shareholders' meeting" Daddy Martin refused.
"Or should Brian just go back to Germany with Dad?"
"No. It's been enough of you for three years to leave your family. If you go back there, what about Quin? Didn't you think about the feeling?"
"It's not what I expected Dad to be. I don't think my return will cause any problems. But it turns out that it is a big problem that is in front of us right now" said Brian full of regret.
"Then from that, let's finish everything. Let's face whatever happens next. Daddy hope you no longer act like a coward. It's been enough for you to hide all this time" said Daddy Martin staring straight ahead.
"You know boy, all this time Daddy owed a lot to the Doni family. After Daddy's parents died when Daddy was still Junior High. Doni's family is willing to help Daddy to be as successful as it is today" continued Daddy Martin with his own face.
"I'm sorry Brian Dad. After the company's anniversary event is over, Brian will hold a press conference. To get it all done. And there is no more heartache or grudge between our family and Om Doni's"
"Hm. Rest boy is too late. Tomorrow we also have to prepare ourselves no matter what happens"
"Yes. Daddy took a break too" said Brian then he returned to his room leaving Daddy in his own office.
After Brian's departure, Daddy Martin took a picture from his desk drawer. He looked at the old photo of two boys wearing high school uniforms. It was their last photo on their last day of school.
"I'm sorry Doni. Sorry for hurting your beloved daughter. I don't know why my son betrayed your beautiful daughter. I missed you Doni. I miss my best friend. Yanh's best friend already considers me a brother. Can our relationship improve as it used to? What should I do to repair our broken friendship? I hope my family still deserves your forgiveness from Doni. Especially sorry about your beautiful daughter" muttered Daddy Martin while wiping away her tears.
He put the old photo back in his desk drawer. Then he wiped his tears before coming out of his study.

In the morning all the members of the Anderson family were eating their own breakfast.
"Dad Mom's going to Danuarta's mansion. Mom misses Rita Dad. It's been a long time that Mom hasn't seen her" Mommy Aletha said, asking for permission.
"Go Mom. Daddy's been a little busy today. So can't accompany Mommy to their mansion"
"Thank you Dad. Quin does Quin want to come with Oma later to meet with Oma's friend?" take Mommy Aletha.
"Daddy can Quin come with Oma?" ask Quin to ask his Daddy for permission.
"May darling. But remember not to be naughty. Okay?"
"Ready Captain" said Quin respectfully towards his Daddy.
Quin's cute attitude made their breakfast atmosphere filled with laughter.
"Well, then we go first, Mom. Bye Opa's grandson" said Daddy Martin then kissed his wife and granddaughter.
Daddy Martin and Brian left in one car. Because Brian was lazy driving his own car.
Almost an hour on the road. They finally arrived at their company.
Upon arriving at Daddy Martin's room, Gabriel followed into the CEO's room.
"Good morning, Great Lord and Young Master" Gabriel said, bowing his head.
"Today's my agenda is Gabriel's" Daddy Martin asked.
"Today there is only a meeting with the shareholders at 11:00WIB nnti Tuan. The rest just signed the documents that I checked again" Gabriel explained.
"You can go back to Gabriel"
"Hmm Sir"
"What's up Gabriel?"
"Sorry Mr. Our shares today decreased by 25% Mr." said Gabriel heartily.
"Have you looked for the cause?"
"The reason is because of yesterday's news sir. There are some shareholders who are planning to withdraw their shares. And there are also some projects that they've canceled sir"
"Thank you for Gabriel's info. Later on, my shareholders will try to persuade them not to withdraw their shares. You can go back to Gabriel and don't forget to get the documents you need for the meeting"
Got orders from his master. Gabriel was working on it.
At exactly 11:00 AM local time, Mr. Martin, Brian and Gabriel entered the meeting room. It looks like all the shareholders have gathered.
Mr. Martin stepped into the chair and sat in his great chair. Followed by Brian sitting on his right and Gabriel on his left.
"Good day everyone. I'm sorry if I'm late" Mr. Martin said.
And his eyes came crashing with the eyes of his friend. Papa Doni's been sitting in his chair sweet. For the first time he attended this shareholder meeting.
"Doni. He's a-comin. How'this? But I didn't see his daughter-in-law. And only represented by his assistant" said Mr. Martin in his heart.
While Papa Doni who saw his sabahat was surprised by his presence he only smiled slanted.
"Alright because all the meeting participants have arrived. Let's start this meeting" said Mr. Martin trying to calm down because intimidated by Papa Doni's gaze.
The meeting began. Brian will be in charge of explaining everything. And any ideas he conveyed so that shareholders would survive in their companies.
Papa Doni who saw the efforts of his friend and son to retain the shareholders, again hnya smile skewed that he showed.
"Is Mr Brian sure it will work?" ask one of the middle-aged men.
"I'm sure Mr. If this will raise our shares back. By launching this project we can help middle people who do not have a permanent residence to buy their occupancy the same as us. We will also do a promotion for the first 100 buyers will get a discount of 20%" explained Brian trying to convince.
"You sure? That's too high a discount if we buy that much discount? You sure the profit we will get will be in accordance with our target?" ask one of the other shareholders.
"Yes, sir, I'm sure the profits we will get will exceed the targets we will determine" said Brian who is still trying to convince all shareholders.
"With shares declining by 25% and many projects being cancelled. Not to mention your scandal. I'm not sure this project will work. It could be that this project will be broken later" said Papa Doni arrived.
After Papa Doni finished voicing what he had in mind. Instantly the meeting room became boisterous with whispers of whispers of other shareholders.
"There is nothing wrong with trying Mr. Doni" said Mr. Martin because he saw his son who was just speechless.
"We are planting shares here with considerable capital. We need to profit from the capital we plant it. With the project you're still trying to do it as you explained earlier. Just like we are in vain to invest our capital in this company" said Papa Doni with an understatement smile.
"I invested here 55%, and when the project broke down and I withdrew my capital. What will happen to this company. This company could go bankrupt" said Paap Doni casually.
When Brian was about to answer Papa Doni, the meeting room door was knocked from the outside.
