Chapter 686: Chapter 682: With the fall of Mo Nian’s big tree, she lost her reliance
Denise Munni carefully checked her mailbox and saw that aside from this authorization letter, there were no other emails.
At this moment, Tania, the secretary, lightly tapped her on the shoulder twice.
For some reason, Denise’s panicked and restless heart suddenly seemed to calm down.
But even so, the feeling of depression could not be hidden.
She stood up and offered Tania a weak smile.
“Tania, do you mind if I stay here to listen to the voting results?”
Tania smiled and nodded, “Of course not, after all, you’ve been following this business, but the higher-ups suddenly changed their intentions, and there wasn’t time to communicate with you more, so they sent me to handle this.”
Tania’s words were quite certain, anyone would have a hard time finding any fault with them.
Denise bitterly smiled and moved her chair a bit to make room for Tania to sit between her and Harris Dunn.
Harris’s face could hardly hide his smugness, he stood up and exchanged a few pleasantries with Tania, and then returned to the main subject.
“Now that Tania, representing United Ventures CEO, is personally here, let’s redo the previous vote as if it were invalid. Does anyone have any objections?”
No one naturally had any objections, even Richelle Dunn, who uncharacteristically had not said a word from the moment Tania entered.
Harris simply considered that Richelle must have been frightened like Denise, as soon as they heard Tania’s voice, they immediately became deflated!
Harris secretly rejoiced, looking at Richelle futilely trying to win over the other directors, casting a few pathetic opposing votes.
Whereas Tania, seemingly cautious, asked Harris several questions before voting, confirming a few details, and under the circumstances that everyone else had already voted, casted United Ventures’ final votes.
Originally, the directors could only speculate about Tania’s intentions, but as soon as she cast her supporting votes contrary to Denise’s stance, the boardroom was in an uproar.
Does this represent, United Ventures CEO no longer trusts Denise?
So, they sent someone to the scene to publicly slap Denise’s face?
Or could it be, as the CEO intended, for some inexplicable reason, to delegate authority for Tania to exercise the voting rights this time?
The same doubts in the directors’ minds were also present in Denise’s.
From the moment Tania said she would exercise the voting rights, Denise had foreseen that Tania would cast her support.
Otherwise, the CEO and Tania wouldn’t have bothered to make the trip just to cast the same number of votes.
However, foreseeing this and actually seeing Tania’s supporting votes cast made Denise’s heart clench.
What was the CEO’s intention with this move?
Could it be that she had done something over the line or been too arrogant lately, so the CEO employed this tactic to publicly slap her in the face and make her behave better and be more obedient?
Denise’s expression was as inscrutable as she watched Harris’s assistant count the votes and finally announce.
“The proposal to establish a subsidiary in Leutonia has been approved with over ninety percent of the votes!”
Denise narrowed her eyes, first glancing at Harris and then at Tania.
Suddenly, her thoughts shifted to Richelle.
The reactions of Harris and Tania, from their standpoint, had been quite normal.
But Richelle’s reaction seemed a bit unusual, right?
Since Tania entered, Richelle, who was usually firmly behind her, was strangely absent today.
Thinking about this, she turned her head slightly to look at Richelle who was sitting behind her.
Whether it was telepathy or just a coincidence, as she looked over, Richelle happened to look up.
As their eyes met, Richelle’s gaze was incredibly calm, completely devoid of the turbulence or fear that should have been there when the proposal was approved.
For some inexplicable reason, Denise’s once suspended and speculative heart instantly settled and completely calmed down.
She didn’t understand the specific reason.
But in Richelle’s calm eyes, she saw one thing.
This result was what Richelle wanted!
After confirming her inner thoughts, Denise completely relaxed.
The secretary was still announcing the remaining proposals for voting, and Harris, like Denise, had also completely relaxed.
He was in a great mood and smiled at Richelle from afar.
Seeing Richelle composed, he assumed that Richelle was just putting on a brave face.
After all, in his eyes, Richelle was used to playing roles like that, hiding her negative emotions and even disguising herself as another person were her forte.
How else could she have hidden her identity abroad for so many years before returning to take revenge on them?
The funny thing was, she thought she was going to win.
Because she had gotten close to Roy Lewis.
But she probably never thought that even a big tree like Roy Lewis would have a day when it would topple.
When the tree fell, she would no longer have any support.
And United Ventures, probably gave Roy some courtesy before.
Now that he is gone, the tea has gone cold.
In the future, United Ventures is unlikely to stand by Richelle’s side ever again!
