Chapter 627

Darrell had done everything in his power to gain favor from the majority of the shareholders. Thus, Ethan should be the losing party.

But how could this be?

Darrell requested to know the names of the voters only to realize that the people he bribed, especially those who held a lot of shares, were still siding with Ethan.

Even those who swore that they would support Darrell sided with Ethan!

Some of them even transferred their shares to Olivia without Darrell’s knowledge.

Now, she possessed ten percent of the shares!

The effort he put in for years had gone down the drain.

It was a huge blow to him. Things weren’t going according to his plan. Just where did it go wrong?

It wasn’t like he spent one or two days getting in touch with those shareholders.

He knew that they were Ethan’s confidants, so Darrell showed them his sincerity as best as he could.

The other party agreed to side with Darrell, but they didn’t dare to get in Ethan’s bad books.

In order to keep Ethan in the dark, they reached a verbal agreement without going through the necessary procedures.

According to the initial agreement, the other party would transfer their shares to Darrell when he became the president after dismissing Ethan. They had even negotiated the price.

At that very moment, Darrell realized that those people didn’t betray Ethan at all. It was just a show!

Darrell looked at them with red eyes. “You lied to me!”

He was humiliated as much as he was proud a moment ago. He had spent a lot of money and effort on this.

Yet, it was all for nothing.

Anyone in his shoes would not be able to accept such an outcome.

Forget about money. He had turned into a big fool.

The notary announced the final result. “Due to insufficient votes, the proposal is rejected. Mr. Miller will remain as the

president.”

Ethan gazed at Darrell’s contorted expression.

Instead of making things difficult for the other party, Ethan said coldly, “It looks like now you know why trick isn’t always the opted method in situations like this. I would like to thank you for letting me know who the rats are here.”

Darrell could no longer maintain that smile on his face. The nerves on his forehead protruded as he gritted his teeth. “Don’t get ahead of yourself. This is not over yet.”

Ethan was unbothered. “Security guards, send the guest off.”

He stood up and left while holding Olivia’s hand.

His gaze swept across Gary and the gang casually before he left.

Although he did not utter a word, their hearts sank to the pit of their stomachs.

Ethan did not punish anyone for the past two years, but everyone knew what the aftermath of betraying him was.

There was only one outcome for siding with the wrong person.

When Olivia walked out of the meeting room, she felt a beastly gaze eyeing her.

She looked back and happened to meet Darrell’s crazed and obsessive expression.

It was as if he was determined to have her.

It seemed like the Millers were crazy to a certain extent.

Olivia strode out of the suffocating room. The air outside was fresher to her.

“I was overly concerned about you. I didn’t know that you would win that easily,” she muttered.

Her heart surged to her throat when the driver told her everything about it. The past two days were chaos.

If someone seized the chance to set their carefully concocted plan into action, Ethan might not even stand a chance.

In the face of her concerned look, warmth seeped into Ethan, sweeping away the cloud of negative emotions.

He raised their holding hands to peck at the back of her hand. “I will never lose for you.”
