Chapter 302

*I’ve told you. Caroline’s joining the election this time just to give us something to laugh at. Even if she

has two shareholders backing her up, it’s still useless. It’s obvious who we should be siding with just by

looking around.”

“Yeah. Caroline’s idiocy is hilarious. She actually thought that someone would take her side. The

shareholders aren’t fools. They’ll surely

Support Layla now.”

“Layla has Eddy’s support. Who does Caroline have to back her up? Her good–for–nothing husband?”

Eddy was speechless when he heard them gossiping. At least these people had the common sense to

lower their voices and control

themselves a bit since he was present.

Caroline didn’t hear what they said, though. She was still busy looking through the documents and

jotting down something when the room turned silent. It was as though she were an outsider, not one of

the contestants.

The two shareholders seated beside Caroline were Gavin and George Harper. They were cousins and

were here because Morrison Corp

had invested in Evans Group.

Still, they were different than Luke and Tom because they had sacrificed a lot when they stepped into

the field of investment.

The Harper cousins‘ respective families had almost cut ties with each other due to the losses faced by

Evans Group.

Eventually, they lived up to their families‘ expectations, investing in stocks and finally managing to

provide their families with a better life.

Even though they were considered wealthy now, the cousins couldn’t forget the hardships their families

had gone through in the past.

Gavin glanced at Caroline, stood up, and made his decision. “My vote is for Caroline,” he announced

and sat back down.

A wave of laughter erupted from the crowd. George had wanted to take Layla’s side, but since Gavin

chose Caroline, he followed suit. Rising from his seat, he said. “I vote for Caroline too.”

The laughter from the people around them became louder, and the gossiping became ever more

prominent.

Then, Caroline raised her head to look at Liam and said, “Mr. Mackey, four shareholders have cast

their votes. It’s your turn now.”

The senior executives couldn’t contain their laughter anymore after hearing what she said. “Haha! Is

Caroline a clown? This is the funniest joke I’ve heard all year!”

Caroline turned in the direction of the voice to find out that it was Emery’s mother who spoke. As the

saying goes, “The apple doesn’t fall

far from the tree“.

Caroline tossed the woman a smile, making her freeze for a moment and forget what she was about to

say. Now that she wasn’t blabbering, the entire room became way more quiet.

Just then, Liam spoke. “It seems to me that my vote will decide the outcome of this election.”

Layla smiled. “Mr. Mackey, don’t beat around the bush. Just tell us who you’re voting for, alright?”

“Alright. Layla asked me for my opinion. Naturally, my vote goes to…” His voice trailed off, and his gaze

shifted between Caroline and Layla as if he were hesitant.

In the end, his eyes fell on Layla, and she pressed her palms against the tabletop while he continued

where he left off. “Naturally, my vote goes to Layla!”

Shooting up from her seat, Layla thanked him, to which he replied, “No worries. You’ve proven yourself

worthy of this position.”

That said, he stared at Caroline with an incomprehensible look in his eyes.

Besides putting on a soft smile, Caroline didn’t have much of an expression. Layla locked gazes with

her and purposely voiced a question. “Caroline, you’ll congratulate me for this, right?”

“What should I congratulate you for?” The smile remained on Caroline’s lips.

“You should congratulate me for becoming Evans Group’s CEO, of course.”

Judging from Liams sudden change in decision. Eady knew that Caroline somehow managed to do

something behind the scenes.

Despite the glare he gave her she met his gaze fearlessly. The look she gave him made him feel like

she was inviting him to a challenge. Pusting aside the anger within him. Eddy looked at Liam for

confirmation. “Mr. Mackey, are you sure that this is what Sloan wants?”

Lam put on a brave front and said. “Yes.”

“Are you sure?” Eddy wered his voice
