Chapter 1456: This Girl Really Liked To Flatter Herself

“Is Cyril trying to dismiss Gloria? Is the Moreton Family’s power struggle being made public?”

“This year’s celebration seems to be rather interesting?”

“That sounds like Cyril is adhering to the rules, but is he trying to challenge Jeffree’s authority?”

The guests were talking softly among themselves. The annual year-end celebration was rather boring to the majority of the people. However, this year seemed to be different.

Is the show going to start now? Mag remained composed as he crossed and picked the small plate up, prepared to watch a good show.

He was rather confident in Gloria. That maiden had a very composed demeanor earlier, so she was most likely very confident about it too.

As for Cyril, Mag believed that as long as that old man Jeffree was still fine in his head, he should learn from the Buffett Family’s old master, and not hand the power over to Cyril no matter how dire the circumstances were.

That wastrel could squander this immense fortune away any time, and the most terrifying part was that he had no idea about it himself. He thought he was in full control because he was a little smart.

Everyone was looking at Jeffree. As a board member, Cyril proposed to convene a board meeting to vote on Gloria’s appointment, which was reasonable and adhered to the regulations. But would Jeffree—as the Chamber of Commerce’s president, Cyril’s father, and Gloria’s grandfather—agree to have this meeting which almost represented his family’s internal conflict?

Right then, Gloria, who was sitting on the other side, stood up, and walked to the edge of the stage. She curtseyed to Jeffree before saying, “President, if Board Member Cyril and some of them believe that, I agree to vote in accordance with the rules of the board to decide whether I can continue to be the Chamber’s board member.”

The main character had got onto the stage, and everyone’s eyes lit up.

The guests who were waiting for Jeffree to speak didn’t expect Gloria would get on the stage herself and agree to Cyril’s proposal. This made them rather impressed with Gloria.

Although this 17-18 years old maiden was very beautiful, just like Cyril said, she was indeed quite inexperienced. It had only been a few months from her first appearance in public to becoming the Chamber of Commerce’s board member.

Meanwhile, many businessmen who built their business up from scratch needed to fulfill many criteria before they could become a board member.

However, this wasn’t absolute.

After all, Miss Scheer, who was sitting at the side, was only 19 years old this year, and she was already the mistress of the biggest conglomerate on the Norland Continent. Moreover, she had already announced that she would contend for the post of the Chamber’s president.

The Buffett Family and the Moreton Family in the past had Jeffree and Ian, who were deemed as the twin stars of the Chaos City’s business world. Both legendary figures were old now. Ian no longer managed the bank’s affairs, while Jeffree was still having a headache over choosing his successor.

Those with discerning eyes could see that Cyril would have a hard time holding onto the Moreton Family’s fortune, let alone bringing his family up to a new level like Scheer.

Meanwhile, the appearance of Gloria gave everyone something to look forward to.

Perhaps the Moreton Family, too, was going to have a female successor?

The beautiful and elegant Gloria gained the guests’ recognition with her exceptional looks and grace. Even though her presence wasn’t as powerful as Scheer’s, taking every aspect into consideration, she wasn’t too far behind her, either. It was another kind of feeling.

As for Cyril, with that obnoxious red and green pairing of his clothes and that smug smile, he looked like a villain holding sway when he took the stage next to Gloria. He was a little offensive.

“Big Sister Gloria is so beautiful,” Amy said, holding Anna’s hand as she watched Gloria.

“Yes. She’s really beautiful.” Anna nodded in agreement.

“This uncle is very bad. He actually wants to depose Miss Gloria,” Yabemiya said angrily.

“All the uncles in this world are the same. None of them is good,” Elizabeth said coldly.

Jeffree threw a glance at Gloria with a hint of consolation flashing across his eyes. He nodded. “Since this is the case, to maintain the fairness of the council, we will conduct a voting resolution in accordance with the rules of the board to decide if Gloria should continue to be a member of the Board.”

“Very good.” A conniving smile appeared on Cyril’s face. He was extremely confident about this voting resolution. He had almost half of the votes after gaining the Dodgeses’ and Marquises’ help. He didn’t believe Gloria could get the remaining half of the votes.

“You will be in charge of the voting,” Jeffree said to Manard before getting off the stage.

Manard walked to the front of the stage, and said to all the board members around it, “Esteemed members of the board, in accordance with the rules of the board, the voting is conducted through a secret ballot. Before the voting starts, Board Member Gloria will have three minutes to give a speech, and the voting will start after that. Our staff will be handing out the ballot tickets and pens to you now.”

Very soon, a few staff members came in with pens and paper, and gave them to all the board members.

Manard then said to Gloria, “Miss Gloria, you have two minutes to prepare. Please tell us what you have done for the Chamber after you became a board member, why you want to be a board member, and what you’re going to do for the Chamber in the future.”

“Alright.” Gloria nodded, and waited patiently for her turn to address the audience. Her gaze couldn’t help looking over the crowd and into a corner.

“Look! Gloria is looking at me! Am I indeed the one she looks for when she is nervous?!” Camilla exclaimed ecstatically.

Mag gave Gloria a warm smile. He only gave Camilla a side glance after Gloria looked away. This girl really liked to flatter herself.

Two minutes soon passed, and all the board members had received a pen and a ballot paper. Everyone’s gaze also began to land on Gloria.

Gloria suddenly felt full of courage and strength after she retrieved her gaze from Mag’s warm smile. She curtseyed to all the board members and guests before saying, “Esteemed board members and members of the Chamber of Commerce, I am Gloria Moreton. I was very honored to have become a substitute for one of the Chamber of Commerce’s board members one month ago. The former board member was arrested for breaking the law, so he was removed from the board. Hence, in accordance with the regulations, the substitute only needed to have the president’s approval, and there was no need to go through the board’s voting resolution. There weren’t any violations of the rules and regulations.

“During my time as a board member of the Chamber of Commerce, I felt a sense of responsibility and pressure.

“The Chamber of Commerce has assembled the best companies and business people in Chaos City, but it isn’t simply a platform to promote business collaborations. It has also undertaken a series of social responsibilities.

“With the immense wealth we hold in our hands, it is also necessary that we bear the corresponding social responsibilities, and the Chamber of Commerce has the role of guiding and promoting all of this.

“At the previous meeting, Miss Luna from the Chaos School started a school and living assistance fund for those children who couldn’t afford to go to school. Many people in the Chamber of Commerce supported her endeavor.

“In addition to supplying the children with winter wear, Blue Suede has also donated to the funds for the construction of school buildings. I was very touched when I saw the pure smiles on the children’s faces after they put on their new clothes. To us, those are only basic living necessities, but to them, it’s a luxury.

“As for why I want to be a board member, it’s because I hope to attract more businessmen into joining the bandwagon of helping the children and the needy population. Then, we would be able to ensure the needy residents could have their basic living conditions met…”
