Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 1840

Henry let out a dismissive snort and said with disdain, "Do you all really think my ambitions stop at replacing Jerome? No, you're dead wrong. I never cared about that Union Leader position. What I want is to defeat Jerome and eliminate the demons from my past!"

Back in the day, Henry, brash and overconfident, once challenged Jerome. As expected, he lost. Even now, with his martial strength nearing perfection and his power unmatched, Jerome remained the thorn in his side.

The others exchanged knowing glances, finally understanding what was really driving Henry.

Scarlett's eyes lit up with bold ambition, and she could not help asking, "Mr. Fischer, since you have no interest in the Union Leader seat... May I recommend myself for the position?"

Henry smirked. "Ms. Driscoll, did you forget you're a woman? I know you've always had a big appetite, Scarlett. You treat Mr. Driscoll Senior like he's already in your pocket. And you've always seen yourself as the queen bee over someone like Joe, a golden boy in his own right.

"Ambition's fine for a woman, but you need the strength to back it up. Forgive my bluntness, Ms. Driscoll, but you're simply not qualified to be Union Leader."

His words were razor-sharp and brutally direct.

Scarlett's face stiffened with frustration. "Maybe I'm not on your level yet, Mr. Fischer. But I've got the whole Driscoll family behind me. My martial strength is still growing, and I could one day break through to become a martial saint. Taking the top seat isn't impossible!"
