Chapter 655 - The New Head (1/2)

For a period of time, the large conference hall was filled with silence. It was too silent that people seemed to hear the ticking of the clock.

The seconds passed by and drops of sweat travelled down on the sides of the faces of the shareholders. Even though they had prepared themselves for this situation and made the decision to choose for the rightful candidate, the tensed atmosphere and the changes that would occur afterwards were still nerve wrecking.

Their fate and their future would be influenced with this. Either they would be on the side of the winner and getting all the benefits, or stand on the side of the loser and losing many things.

Ding.

A metallic sound of notification vibrated from everyone's tablets. It was the indication that everyone present had already cast their votes.

Even the head butler who acted as the representative in casting the former headmaster's vote was already done voting.

All eyes turned to Guan Gu Ri.

Guan Gu Ri received their stares. His dark eyes swept towards the empty seat.

...It turned out that his second brother still could not come in the end.

Guan Gu Ri stared at the tight faces of the people present and spoke. ”Since all of us present here have voted, we will now present the results to everyone.”

Guan Gu Ri looked at the head butler.

The head butler bowed, took out his tablet, and swiped.

The image on the large screen displayed on one wall of the conference room flashed. The numbers beside the three names of the candidates changed.

The results were showed.

Guan Gu Ri, 39%.

Guan Xixin, 13%.

Guan Gao Huan, 48%.

There was a momentary silence in the room.

Guan Gao Huan won with almost half of the support of the board of directors!

”...!” Guan Gao Huan's smile almost broke out.

He won!!!

The Guan Empire was finally his!!!

Even though he expected that the result today would be in his favor, seeing and experiencing it at the same time gave a sweet taste in his mouth.

His eyes were bright with a fevered light as he stared at the figure of '48 %'. This bright number that allowed him to be the next head of the Guan Empire seemed very beautiful.

Although he was ecstatically happy and wanted to laugh hard at how these people handed over to him the Guan Empire so easily, he pressed down his rising lips and let out a shocked expression.

He still must act until the end.

One of Guan Gao Huan's supporters stood up in delight and exclaimed.

”Congratulations, Third Young Master Guan!”

This exclamation was like a heavy drop of water falling on a still lake.

It woke up everyone from their daze. They began to react uproariously. The conference room erupted into a chaotic celebration of the winners.
