Chapter 11 - Corporate Board Votes To Oust Corrupt Spouse

At the Manhattan headquarters of Hawthorne Global Enterprises, the emergency executive board meeting commenced in tense silence.
Ethan sat at the head of the glass boardroom table, projecting the federal indictment documents onto the main digital display.
“As CEO, I am moving for the immediate termination of all corporate titles and voting rights held by Victoria Hawthorne,” Ethan declared.
The senior board members whispered among themselves before nodding in unanimous agreement with the motion.
“Seconded,” the head of human resources stated, sliding the official paperwork across the polished mahogany table.
“Her fraudulent board credentials have been permanently revoked, and her company shares are frozen pending asset forfeiture,” Ethan added.
“It’s unfortunate, Ethan, but protecting the integrity of our brand is our highest priority,” the managing director noted.
The vote was unanimous, officially severing every remaining corporate tie between Victoria and the multi-billion-dollar empire.
