Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 1723

After Cillian's death, unrest spread throughout the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce. Many members had grown increasingly hostile and resistant toward Andrew.

"He's nothing but a killer, a thug!"

"Putting him in charge was a mistake from the start!"

"We need to elect a new chairman. We refuse to be led by someone so ruthless!" Several members had already stepped forward, openly attacking Andrew.

Left with no choice, Andrew called for another internal meeting with the Chamber of Commerce members.

"Everyone suspects I'm the one who killed Cillian," Andrew said calmly from his seat at the head of the table. "So where's the evidence? Where's the proof?"

An elderly member wearing reading glasses angrily replied, "Cillian is dead, and you're still alive! That's evidence enough! Mr. Lloyd, do you plan to eliminate everyone who displeases you? Are you our Chamber of Commerce chairman or a tyrant?"

Duncan slammed the table. "Mr. Benson, watch your language!"

The elderly Tyrell Benson chuckled with disdain. "Cillian and I are from the same generation, and I've lived long enough anyway! I'm not afraid to die, Duncan. Mr. Lloyds, if you two have the guts, come to my company and finish me off!"

With that, he left the meeting directly, showing Andrew no respect whatsoever.

Mason, sitting at the far end, had a mocking smile on his face. The effect he wanted was being achieved step by step, and Andrew definitely would not be able to hold onto the chairman position much longer!
