Chapter 1056: This board has decided

"It seems... we've got our first no."

Just like Benjamin did with the last seven ballots, he spun around slowly to show the ballot to everyone. As he did, he studied everyone's reaction: some furrowed their brows in confusion, others arched an eyebrow, glancing at the others as if trying to find out who voted "no," and a few let out a sigh of relief. The rest were either neutral or just waiting to hear the final result.

"Seven yes and one no," Benjamin remarked before pulling out another ballot. When his eyes landed on it, he didn't react immediately. His tone grew colder as he announced, "Our second no."

"Ah, goodness..." William's lackey heaved a sigh of relief, sliding his eyes toward William. "Director William, I think they've already used up their 'yes' votes."

"Another five 'no's, and his chances will drop," the other whispered.

William's expression remained unchanged as he glared in Jonathan's direction. He didn't say anything immediately, as those ballots could still be their own votes.

"I'm taking out another one," Benjamin announced, placing his hand inside the ballot box before checking it carefully. It was hard to tell what the vote was because neither Benjamin nor the other two with him showed any reaction.

"No," Benjamin said, revealing the sheet, and following his usual routine. "Seven yes, and three no." freewebnovel.com

William's lackeys adjusted from their seats, their chests shaking with a mix of anxiety and relief. They couldn't help but clasp their hands together, feeling their palms sweat. When they heard Benjamin announce the fourth "no," they almost choked.

"Goodness, this is making me anxious," someone grumbled under his breath. "Was the AC off? I'm sweating a lot."
