Chapter 351 Critical Moment
Another candidate, Rickey, chose to quit at this time, and even voted for Zayla. This situation was beyond everyone’s expectations! The original shareholders who supported Rickey were also shocked and changed sides to support Zayla.
After all, they and Simon were at odds! And the shareholders of Simon’s side still firmly stood up for him. The number of votes for the two was even for the first time! That made the choice of neutral shareholders vital!
The air was heavy in the office. Zayla’s slender and beautiful fingers tapped on the table lightly. She appeared unconcerned, but every knock, every sound brought overwhelming pressure to others!
Suddenly, a shareholder’s cell phone rang! “I’ll answer the phone.” He walked toward the French windows on one side. After about a minute or two, he returned to the conference table. “I choose Zayla.”
With this choice, the other neutral shareholders were at a loss. Some neutral shareholders felt that there was something fishy going on, especially the phone call of that shareholder. The thought of this made them follow suit to vote for Zayla.
But there were still some shareholders who chose to vote for Simon. Finally… “Well… Did they get a draw again?” “It seems that the two candidate shareholders have to speak in turn to convince us all, and then we’ll re-vote.” While everyone was discussing… The door of the meeting room was open again! vote for Zayla!”
The appearance of Lincoln made Simon’s expression suddenly change! Everyone present knew that Ophelia inherited Lucy’s shares, and Lincoln was Ophelia’s guardian, so Lincoln naturally had a say.
This vote undoubtedly played a decisive role in such a situation! It made Zayla the new president of the Russo Group!
But the staff standing by the screen to count the votes swallowed in fear and hurriedly looked at Simon, not daring to announce… Lincoln, cold and dignified, walked to Zayla. He looked at the shareholders who were seated, and his cold voice sounded…
“Give way or should I ask you to get up?” Under the conference table, a shiny pistol was pressed against the thigh of the shareholder! The shareholders were sweating profusely in fright.
“I… I give way.” He swallowed, got up, and left in a hurry. Lincoln seated himself and gave a faint smile upon meeting Zayla’s eyes. Immediately afterward, Lincoln turned the seat and asked domineeringly, Aren’t you announcing the result yet?” The results were already evident.
The staff had no choice but to announce Following the staff’s the lead in applauding! The other shareholders all followed him
and applauded stiffly. Simon quickly got up from his seat and walked away in a huff! Zayla looked at the manager of the PR department and said, “Make an announcement to the outside world in three minutes.” The manager nodded quickly and went to
get it done. The meeting ended with a short speech made by Zayla. All shareholders left one after another, but Zayla stopped Rickey.
“Why… did you help me?” She looked at Rickey and asked solemnly. Rickey took a step forward and whispered in her ear, “Because I recognized you, Zayla.”
Zayla stared at Rickey and somehow found him familiar. He seemed to have appeared in her memory. She remembered it! E-fatty?” When Rickey heard this address, his feet went limp, and he almost staggered and fell to the ground
“It’s been so many years. Can you stop calling me that? I have pride.” “You lost it when you were scared by the Chihuahua and climbed up the tree.”
When Rickey was in kindergarten, he was a chubby little fat boy. He was a head taller and fatter than his peers, but he was afraid of dogs!
Even a small dog could scare him out of his wit, but he was too everyone knew that he was afraid of dogs, and because he was fat,
his nickname was fatty. Once, he was scared by a classmate’s Chihuahua and climbed up a tree. In front of him, Zayla grabbed the barking Chihuahua away… The chihuahua, who was still baring its teeth a minute ago, was so docile and cute in Zayla’s arms.
From then on, whenever Rickey saw a dog, he would call for Zayla’s help. But after Rickey’s family immigrated, the two lost contacts. Now Rickey turned out tall and handsome! Sure enough, fat people had great potential!
But Zayla never expected that he would be one of the shareholders of the Russo Group. “When I was young, you saved my life… Of course, I would help you. And I am not interested in this position at all.”
“If it weren’t for my father who sent a few people to watch me, I would have just run away from today’s shareholders’ meeting.” Though he was fat as a child, Rickey was very flexible, as nimble as a squirrel! Zayla was amused by him.
“Come on, don’t stand on ceremony with We’re no strangers.” After speaking, Rickey moved closer to Zayla. “Well, I would like to ask you a small favor.” “What?” Rickey whispered in Zayla’s ear. Zayla nodded and agreed, “Okay, no
problem.” Afterward, the two became friends on Line, and Rickey left with a smile. Zayla put away her phone and was about to leave the conference room. Suddenly, she saw a palm pressing the door of the conference room!
In the next second, she only felt her feet flying into the air, and she was being hugged straight up! When Zayla came to her senses, she was already sitting at the conference table. And under her was his suit jacket. “Sixteen minutes and forty-five seconds.” The steady and powerful voice sounded in her ears…
