Lena's: POV
When l came back in the conference leaving Shannon in the hallway alone
Sorry everyone for taking so long to return
Lena spoke. Lena can l say something before you proceed Megan said to me
Okay what do you have to say Megan asks
We have a witness who can prove Shannon isn't as she appears to be Megan tells me
How do we know this individual isn't some kind of frund or something Lena States
Megan turned on the laptop and a familiar face popped up on the screen Lena was shocked beyond words. Long time no see Lena, l would have came in person but I think it's better this way. What l'm tell you is true, while you were out of town
I witness first hand at what Shannon's capable of, and Shannon is not her real name. She's wanted in three different states for embezzlement, money lottering
Stealing from charitable donations smuggling drugs in from Mexico and bringing here to the United States she can't be trusted. She has been writing checks from the business account l wrote down dates. And times when these incidents occurred l was scared come forward cause she threatened to tell you is was me that stole the missing money l only said it was me to get her off my back, plus she had some people come in and take photos of the children and she pay them each twenty five thousand dollars a piece to do her dirty work the woman Stated. Lena didn't know what to say about this newest revelation
Call the police and tell them we have a con artist in our mist. Did all of you come to a decision, Lena asked the head chairman of the board. We all voted Shannon out
Even after this piece of information she should have been gone a long time ago
But out of respect for you we were stalling for time, we don't want anybody like Shannon anywhere these children
She makes decisions without consent
She's rude to all of us. Shannon trying to ruined your reputation by putting a bad taste in people's mouth about you so they won't donate to the group home ok course they didn't believe the lies she was telling us, Lena she needs to go before someone gets hurt Paul the vice president said
Lena the ball is in your court now
The police are on their way. Lena looks at everybody in the room, l am so sorry this has happened while I was away. I thought that Shannon was a honest person but now I see that l was wrong Lena replied
It's okay Lena we're not mad at you
It's Shannon that's the real criminal here
We promised to get back all the money she's taking. I'm gonna call the bank and explain this whole situation, l have documents to back up everything
Here have a look for your self Lena Megan handed Lena the folder, Lena Open up the folder and read over the bank statements and transactions. She just shook her head at what she was reading, Lena closed it
Thank you for bringing this to my attention Megan. As soon as Shannon is out of the company l will be looking for a replacement to take over her position,
I am going to need someone who is honest and a real team player. We need to get down to business, when I return from my trip l will be holding another meeting with my decision, Lena Stated we're going to wait for the police to arrive before leaving this meeting Lena told everyone.
