Chapter 608
It caused a huge uproar. The cameras flashed non-stop. The major drama that everyone was eagerlyanticipating had arrived surprisingly quickly.
Renee and Xavier also stopped chatting to focus on the stage.
Jovan did not panic. His thin lips curled into a smile as he bowed and gestured an invitation toAlexander. “You’re right, Uncle Alexander.
Although you only have shares but no real power in H Group now, you still have the highest status inthe entire Hunt family outside of grandpa’s generation. Since you’re here, of course you should takethis seat instead.’
Alexander had no intention of putting on an act with Jovan. He accused Jovan in front of all thereporters. ‘Do you think I’m only referring to that seat? You did so many dirty things while the H Groupwas in chaos. In ancient times, you would be like a thief usurping the throne. It’s a crime punishable byexecution!”
“Your words are too extreme, Uncle Alexander. After Stefan met with an accident, the H Group becameleaderless, so I rushed back from overseas as quickly as I could to stabilize the situation. As for thesubsequent
decision made by the board of directors, I’m sure It was made after careful consideration. For the sakeof the big picture, I can only comply.”
Jovan spread his hands helplessly, as if he usurped the throne out of kindness.
If Alexander’s anger level was at seven out of ten before this, it had now jumped to ten out of ten. “Youcunning bastard, still trying to act like you’re the good guy. In that case, tell everyone whose decision it
was. You must have spent every penny you had on bribes.”
Jovan smiled and said no more. Instead, he looked over at several board members.
The oldest one among them was Barry Brown.
His father had served under General Everheart on the battlefield and later assisted General Everheartin founding the H Group. He also joined the H Group and was one of the six members of the board ofdirectors. He had always been loyal to Stefan and held a high position in the company.
But today, he did not behave as he usually did. He told Alexander,” Alexander, since you’ve alreadyretired, you shouldn’t interfere in the H Group’s decisions anymore. You have plenty of shares, so justsit back and wait for the dividends.”
‘There are a lot of reporters here today. Be more considerate of the H Group’s image. How can you, asan elder, argue with your nephew like this? It’s unsightly. Sit down and stop making a fool out ofyourself.”
Alexander snorted and said, “Barry Brown, now that’s a surprise. You used to be the Uncle Barry thatStefan trusted and respected the most. He entrusted you with so many important business matters, butnow you…”
‘Things are different now. Pursuing benefits and avoiding harm are merely animal instincts. I merelymade the most logical choice. There’s no use trying to persuade me. It wouldn’t change anything.”
The conversation between them conveyed a large amount of information. Watching from below thestage, Renee was initially angered, but she then sighed with emotion.
“I cant believe Uncle Barry would say that. He’s always been one of Stefan’s confidants, but now…”
“These things are normal. Even lizards would sever their tail to survive. Humans have to learn toprotect themselves too. Stefan is already a thing of the past. You would be a fool to still remain inStefan’s faction.”novelbin
Xavier said without much emotion.
Renee became even angrier. “I don’t agree with your nonsense. If you have to pick a side in order tosurvive too, would you betray Stefan and choose to collude with a villain like Jovan?”
Xavier shrugged with a smile. “It’s hard to say. I’ve never been in such a situation before, so I’m notsure what I would do.”
“Hmph, Stefan would be stirring in his grave if he knew that. If it were me, once I chose someone, Iwould always be loyal to them and I would never betray them, even if it might endanger my life!”
“Are you feeling indignant on Stefan’s behalf? Of course you’re taking your husband’s side… Looks likeyou still have feelings for him. If he knew, he would definitely feel so happy that he would come back tolife.”
Xavier joked.
