Chapter 2235 The Decisive Vote!

“It’s okay. You’re here, and that’s all that matters.”

Terence gently patted Hannah’s back, tears streaming down his face.

Family? It’s more valuable than anything else, especially for an old man like me. I feel my life is slipping away, but now’s not the time for emotional reunions between me and Hannah, especially when the election’s not over yet. It’s a tie of 132 votes against 132 votes!

Out of 264 total votes, neither side had claimed a decisive lead.

This kind of deadlock hadn’t been seen in the last two elections–or in the Chamber’s entire history. No one had ever reached 130 votes without securing victory.

Only thirteen votes remained.

Based on previous predictions, the remaining votes were expected to be split, with three for Mackenzie, five for Teddy, and five undecided but leaning toward Teddy.

“Don’t panic, Teddy. It’s just starting,” Catherine muttered as she watched the live stream.

Even through the screen, Teddy’s stress was evident.

He had planned everything so carefully–removing the West End representatives, orchestrating poisonings in Zovince, threatening anyone in his way. Yet the election still spun out of control.

Although he had everything in his favor, the election spiraled beyond his control because of Ansel’s unexpected betrayal that was followed by Ken’s return and Nuthana’s and West End’s sudden backings.

Worst of all, there was Bernett’s defection…

For someone so used to controlling every detail, this was chaos. It was even more dramatic than when he ousted the previous Chamber of Commerce head.

When your confidence takes repeated hits, panic is inevitable. And I’m no exception.

Even with a slim lead, Teddy could not believe in victory.
