After that, Emily Quest would surprise everyone with her capabilities. Gradually, she would climb the corporate ladder with her powers and dominate everyone.
In the end, she would successfully replace Xyla Quest as the heir!
When Emily thought of this, she couldn’t help but feel proud of having everything planned out.
“President Quest… We want to recast our vote…”
“Recast the votes…”
Everyone was chanting loudly along as they secretly mocked Xyla.
Seemingly very upset, Jeremy Quest turned to look at Xyla…
When he caught her smiling, he felt even worse.
Just what was going on with his eldest daughter? Wasn’t she embarrassed with herself?
She was the heir he chose. How could she do something embarrassing like this in the company?
Sensing Jeremy’s gaze, Xyla smiled even wider. Slowly, she reached for Jeremy’s microphone and looked at the crowd off-stage. “Please be quiet for a moment.”
The noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
“Emily was right. This blueprint design… Indeed, its foundation was drawn when Lily first started out. I modified the parts that I think weren’t good enough. I enhanced it… That’s how I arrived at this current design,” Xyla explained.
Her words were like a heavy rock thrown into a serene pool of water.
Suddenly, the crowd went crazy again.
Jeremy seemed even more upset.
Meanwhile, Emily and May Conner were ecstatic on the inside. The two of them felt certain Xyla was a sitting duck.
