Chapter 235
\nReturn Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 235<\/p>\n
In the Regalflow Group, Joseph, upon hearing that Morris was critically ill, invited all the board members of the Chivers Group over for a gathering.<\/p>\n
Officially, it was just a gathering, but in fact, it was an effort to gain their support. Joseph was trying to overthrow Morris’s reign.<\/p>\n
At the head of the large conference table in the meeting room, Joseph sat in a big executive chair, surrounded by dozens of somewhat impatient Chivers Group board members. Among them, Harold looked clam.<\/p>\n
Joseph glanced at them and said, “Thank you for taking the time to visit Regalflow Group.”<\/p>\n
“Mr. Joseph Chivers, please be quick if you have something to say. Our time is very valuable,” one of the board members said with a hint of scorn.<\/p>\n
Hearing this, others agreed, saying, “Yeah, Mr. Joseph Chivers, don’t waste our time.”<\/p>\n
Under Morris’s management, Chivers Group flourished over the years, making these board members very wealthy. They didn’t have to do much; they just sat back and enjoyed the dividends.<\/p>\n
That was why they were all sitting around the conference table with an air of arrogance. Moreover, in their eyes, Joseph was merely an illegitimate child.<\/p>\n
They wouldn’t even bother coming to Regalflow Group if it weren’t for Harold’s continuous persuasion.<\/p>\n
Noticing their attitudes, Joseph’s eyes briefly showed a hint of malice, but it quickly disappeared. He spoke with a touch of humility, “Please remain calm.<\/p>\n
“I have an important matter to discuss with you today, which is why I asked you to come here. Since everyone is so busy, I’ll get straight to the point.<\/p>\n
“My brother, Morris, went to Manesia with his girlfriend, and I heard their plane had some issues. He’s still in critical condition and hasn’t come out of the ICU yet.<\/p>\n
“From what I learned from the private hospital where my brother is, he might not make it.”<\/p>\n
Hearing this, the dozens of board members immediately started buzzing, bowing their heads, and discussing among themselves.<\/p>\n
One said, “What? How could this happen?”<\/p>\n
Another person said, “Yeah, how did Mr. Chivers suddenly end up in an accident?”<\/p>\n
Someone asked, “What are we going to do about the Chivers Group now?”<\/p>\n
One said, “It’s definitely going to impact our daily operations.”<\/p>\n
However, some board members were skeptical and questioned, “Could it be fake? Mr. Joseph Chivers, are you just making it up to disturb us?” Joseph didn’t say anything, he just smiled.<\/p>\n
Harold, sitting at the conference table, stood up and said, “I wish it were fake; after all, Morris is my son and such an exceptional one at that. I called yesterday to ask, thinking there was nothing wrong.<\/p>\n
“I didn’t expect that later, something actually happened. This morning, we received a notification from the hospital and photos sent by his assistant, Steven.” As he spoke, he had someone turn on the large screen.<\/p>\n
Joseph nodded and said, “Yes, we’ve already been in touch with Duskson, and he’s interested in joining Regalflow Group’s bidding plan.”<\/p>\n
His words swayed some of the board members. With Duskson’s designs supporting them, that piece of land at the foot of Agrieviel would easily be within reach.<\/p>\n
They thought, ‘The land is a treasure trove. It seems Joseph has some skills if what he said is true.’<\/p>\n
The board members discussed for a moment and nodded to Joseph. One said, “Alright, we’ll recommend you as the interim CEO. Once we secure the land, we can consult the other minority shareholders.”<\/p>\n
Upon hearing this, Joseph and Harold exchanged a smile. Joseph said, “Well, we’ll leave it to you.”<\/p>\n
*****<\/p>\n
In Morris’s villa in Astonburg, Manesia, the atmosphere here was a clear contrast to the tense standoff at Regalflow Group, being both relaxing and leisurely. Cherise was sitting in the garden gazebo, enjoying some snacks.<\/p>\n
Crow happily walked over and sat down. He picked up a piece of snack and said, “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I’d never know how insanely rich Mr. Chivers is. It took me half an hour to find the bathroom in this huge villa.”<\/p>\n
Cherise took a sip of coffee and asked, “Did everything go smoothly?”<\/p>\n
Crow said as he snacked, “Of course, I contacted Joseph’s assistant using your name as Duskson, and they completely believed it.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-260","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
