The Queen's Back

Chapter 143

As soon as Jane finished speaking, the directors in the meeting room began to discuss. Maxwell was indeed capable, but they had never worked together before. They did not know what kind of person he was or if he was easy to get along with.

Jeremy stood beside Jane and did not dare to speak. Ever since Jane appeared, he felt she was taking care of everything. Moreover, if he had fought for the position of chairman that day people would have assumed he wanted to occupy the company while Bernard was unconscious. However, Jeremy's effort to poison Bernard would be in vain if he hadn't fought for the position. Additionally, Barbara would blame him. After a long time, he concluded that since he had already done so much, he had to fight for the position of chairman. After thinking it through, Jeremy gazed at Nico, indicating he needed to speak. After all, in this situation, they were in the

same boat.

Meanwhile, the conference room returned to silence after the discussion. Then, Jane asked, "Since everyone has stopped discussing, does anyone have any thoughts?"

As Jane finished speaking, the directors exchanged gazes in silence. No one spoke first.

Nico could not wait any longer and immediately said, "I think Jeremy is the perfect man to sit as the chairman of this company. Everyone knows he has worked hard for our company over the years, and we got a raise because of him. Compared to Mr. Carter, I think he's far better. What do you think?"

"Mr. Rivas, are you speaking up for him because he had helped you before?" Mona asked with a smile.

Hearing Mona bringing that up, Nico immediately became the center of attention. "I did receive a little benefit from him but think about it. Over the years, he has worked hard for the company's development. Moreover, he understands the company's business lines. No matter what, he's more suitable for the position of chairman."

After Nico finished speaking, Jeremy gave him a satisfied look. Then, there was a small discussion. Mona vaguely heard the director beside her say, "I think Jeremy is more suitable. Although Mr. Carter is capable, he has never run Clem Group and doesn't understand the company's business."

"You're right. I think Jeremy is perfect for this."

"No, I believe Mr. Carter will fit the role. This company will be exponentially

if he can be the chairman."

"Same, I think Mr. Carter is still the best. Besides, Mrs. Clem is backing him, and Jeremy privately called for this meeting. Isn't this feel off?"

stayed silent to that point. Then suddenly, he opened his mouth. "If I can become the company's chairman, I can increase

Jane finished speaking, Nico was the first to vote for Jeremy. Several directors on good terms with him were also voting for Jeremy. In an instant, the yote was half-to-half. Meanwhile, the shareholder who
