Female Novel
Chapter 917
“What a coincidence, Mr. Hunt… we meet again.” Renee nodded at Stefan, a prideful smile on herface.
“Indeed. You’ve been planning this for a very long time, haven’t you? What a great performance!”Stefan said, raising an eyebrow.
‘Tsk tsk, it really was her!’ Stefan didn’t seem shocked in the slightest. Instead, he felt strangelycontent. ‘Oh, Renee Everheart, of course it’s you. You took quite a huge risk this time, huh? I have toadmit that I’m impressed.’
The woman’s status left him feeling much more relieved than before. At the very least, as the ‘newchairman of KCL’, he wouldn’t have to worry about her being taken advantage of. Moreover, her wealthwas now enough to give four generations of her family a life of luxury.
“Yarrow, what is the meaning of this? Why is this woman here?! Don’t tell me she really is the newchairman of KCL?”
“Exactly, Yarrow, you have to give us a reasonable explanation. Is KCL Group toying with us elders?!”
The attendees immediately voiced their concerns. They just couldn’t accept the fact that this woman,who they looked down upon, could possess this much power in their industry. They were convincedthat it was all a grave mistake, or that KCL Group was playing a prank on them.novelbin
Seraphina was also throwing a temper tantrum in the meeting room, and was trying to barge in toconfront Renee. Her rage seemed to have consumed all of her rationality, and her lovely image frombefore was no more.
“Let me in! If you don’t, my family will hear about this!” However, no matter how much she protestednow, she and her entire family had already been ridiculed live on television.
Facing the crowd’s pressure once again, Frederick explained hastily, “Please calm down, everyone.Miss Everheart really is the newest chairman of KCL Group, and the one who invented the G6 chip.She was able to become the biggest shareholder in KCL through her own efforts, and has single-handedly pushed the entire industry forward by nearly a decade. It definitely isn’t a stretch to call herour hero, so please, respect and support her!”
Despite this, Frederick’s words were still unable to convince the group of elderly men.
“Cut the crap! This woman must’ve manipulated her way into this position! KCL Group is definitelycorrupted, and our association will never be united! We should vote on whether we should allow thiswoman to be a part of this conference!”
“Exactly, we have to! Every member of the conference carries an important responsibility in our industry– not just anyone can join our cause!”
The people were quite agitated, and their fierce attitudes made it seem like Renee was a witch theywanted to burn at the stake.
It was basically a typical showcase of sexism and age discrimination; they just refused to believe that ayoung woman like her would ever possess such skill and knowledge, let alone the right to obtain ahigher status than themselves.
“This isn’t quite right though. The new chairman of KCL Group should naturally be a part of theconference. It would be unfair to Miss Everheart if we were to change the rules…” Frederick protested,clearly in a difficult position.
He genuinely admired Renee. In his opinion, the woman was an absolute prodigy in technology, andwas clearly much more knowledgeable than these old men who loved flaunting their wealth and status.
It would be unjust for them to doubt her just because of her gender and age…
Just as the atmosphere was becoming tense, Stefan raised his hand calmly. “I’m fine with her joining.”
