Chapter 329: Appointment as Vice President

Early the next morning, the Montgomery Group convened a board meeting. Dressed in

a professional suit, Aurora walked straight-backed into the conference room. She was met by Eric, towards whom her feelings had only worsened.

She regarded him as someone who took advantage of others' misfortunes, a trait all too common in the business world. Her thoughts also turned to Julian, and she felt uncomfortable. She vowed that one day, once she had gained enough strength, she would personally reclaim everything Julian had lost.

She nodded coldly at Eric, considering it a sufficient greeting. Despite her dislike for him, she maintained the necessary courtesies. The board members gradually arrived, with Oswaldo taking his place at the head of the table, his face full of wrinkles yet beaming with joy.

"Everyone is here, please take your seats."

Once seated, Oswaldo began to speak, "Since Paul resigned, the position of vice president has been temporarily vacant. As per our earlier agreement, whoever secured the order from Luminary would claim the vice presidency. Yesterday, the president of Luminary personally signed a contract with us. It's time to uphold our agreement."

This development had not yet been made public, so the board members were unaware of who had secured the contract. Regardless of who it was, everyone was surprised. "Such a large order worth billions of dollars secured in just a few days? Chairman, you're not joking with us, are you?"

one of the board members asked skeptically.

"Do you think I have so much free time that I would gather you here just to boast?" Oswaldo said, tapping his cane, his expression changing.

The questioner was taken aback, "No, no, Chairman, I didn't mean that. I'm just very surprised."

"Not only you are surprised, but so am I," Oswaldo continued.

"Securing such a large order in such a short time is unprecedented. Why don't you guess who among them secured the order?"
