Chapter 467 A Move Planned Long Ago
Everyone’s eyes focused on Alina, and so did the live broadcast lenses.
“Well, are you sure? It depends on me?”
Alina was confused and a little flattered.
Although the Gilmore family was the biggest sponsor of this summit, the Gilmore family had little to do
with the electronic science and technology industry. Alina could appear at the summit because of
money. She did not have a great sense of accomplishment.
Now, when she heard that whether the summit could be smoothly held depended on her, she was
excited.
“Yes, Ms. Gilmore, the KCL Group’s new president wanted your cooperation…”
“What do I need to do? Whatever the president says, I will cooperate well. It is my honor.”
When Alina heard that the famous KCL Group’s new president referred to her, she was even more
excited, almost kneeling on the spot.
After all, if Alina had a good relationship with KCL Group’s new president, she would be a big shot in
the entire electronic technology industry. Those big shots who wanted to cooperate with KCL Group
would come and lick her.
In this way, her position in Braden’s heart would rise as he would need her more.
“Well…”
Frank pushed up his glasses and said awkwardly, “KCL’s new president said he liked Seatie City very
much and wanted to have an adopted daughter. He hopes that you can say to him in front of the global
camera, ‘Dad, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me for what I did before and come to the meeting’.”
When this was said, the scene was in an uproar.
Alina’s expression became a little ugly. “Did the president really say that? It is… too humorous.”
Six of the seven members in the Round Table Conference room were laughing their heads off.
Higashino applauded. ’Hahaha, I like this new president. He has a personality. I will strive to cooperate
with him.”
Only Braden’s expression suddenly became serious and his thick eyebrows were deeply furrowed.
Somehow, he felt it was something he was familiar with. He thought, could it be…
After a struggle inside, Alina felt she was ready to act. She stood up from her seat and smiled. “It is my
lifetime glory to be the daughter of the president. I am so happy. How can I not cooperate…”
Then, in front of the live broadcast, she put on a generous and well-behaved appearance and said in a
loud voice, “Dad, I know I was wrong. Please don’t mind what I did before and come to the meeting.”
After saying that, she kept cursing in her heart. She had never been so humble in her life.
However, in order to win Braden’s heart, she was willing to accept the hard request. Frank heaved a
sigh of relief. After communicating with the new president of KCL Group for a moment, he announced
to everyone, “Thank you, Ms. Gilmore. The new president of KCL Group said that he is very satisfied
with having a daughter like you.
He will immediately come. Let us give him a round of applause.”
Immediately, thunderous applause rang out from both the venue and the outside.
Everyone craned their necks, looking forward to the appearance of this mysterious and unique new
president.
The door of the Round Table Conference room was opened by the staff. The new president of the KCL
Group walked in unhurriedly. The boiling scene immediately exploded.
“Oh my goodness, is there a mistake? How could it be her?”
“This is impossible. My eyes, there must be a problem with my eyes!”
Amidst the questioning, the person smiled and nodded at everyone. “Hello, everyone. I am KCL
Group’s new president, Shirley Wilson. I am sorry to keep you waiting.”
Then, she calmly walked to Braden and sat next to him, the seat kept for KCL Group’s new president.
“Mr. Stewart, what a coincidence. We meet again.”
Shirley nodded at Braden. The corners of her lips curled up, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows
were full of emotions.
“Yes, we meet again. You must have planned this for a long time. It’s marvelous!”
Braden thought, tsk tsk, it was really her!
At that moment, Braden was no longer surprised. Instead, he felt an indescribable sense of Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
gratification.
Braden admired what a big move Shirley had taken. He felt more relieved now seeing what Shirley had
done.
Now that Shirley had the identity of the president of KCL Group, Braden did not have to worry about
her being bullied. What was more, at least from her generation to the next three generations, she would
not be short of money.
“Frank, what’s going on? How can all kinds of monsters come in? Don’t tell me that this woman is really
the new president of KCL Group?”
“Yes, Frank, you have to give us a reasonable explanation. Is KCL Group playing us like monkeys?”
The other members of the Round Table Conference expressed their strong objections.
They could not accept that the woman they looked down on the most could occupy such an important
position in the industry. They were sure that there must be something wrong or that KCL Group
deliberately had played tricks on them.
As for Alina, she even had a falling out in the conference room outside, shouting that she would go into
the Round Table Conference room to get even with Shirley.
“Let me in. I warn you to let me in immediately. Otherwise, the Gilmore family will not let you go!”
Her current irascibility was a sharp contrast to her flattery a short while ago.
However, no matter how high she jumped, she had lost her face and even the face of the Gilmore
family, and people all over the world saw it.
Feeling pressured, Frank explained to the crowd, “Everyone, don’t get excited. Ms. Wilson is truly the
new president of KCL Group, and she is also the one who finally develops the G6 Chip. She became
the largest shareholder of KCL Group by means of technology. She pushed the progress of the industry
forward by herself for nearly ten years. She is a hero in our industry. I hope everyone can respect and
support her.”
Frank’s explanation still could not convince the present members.
“Stop talking nonsense. This woman must have relied on some means to become the president of KCL
Group. KCL Group has decayed, and the Electronics Technology Association cannot be assimilated. I
suggest… we vote to decide whether we should agree to her becoming one of the eight members of
the Round Table Conference.”
“Yes, we must vote. The members of the Round Table Conference carry an important mission in the
industry. Not anyone can be a member.”
The crowd was excited. They looked so fierce and wanted to burn Shirley.
The core problem was gender and age discrimination.
How could a young woman have such achievements? She was even less qualified to hold such great
power.
“This is not very appropriate. Originally, the new president of KCL Group was one of the eight members
of the Round Table Conference. Now, if we vote, it is unfair to Ms. Wilson…”
Frank was in a difficult position. He did not want to offend either side.
However, he supported Shirley from the bottom of his heart.
In his opinion, women were geniuses in the field of electronic science and technology, much more
powerful than these old men who used to put on air.
If Shirley was pushed out because of her gender and qualifications, it would be too unfair…
“I agree!”
When it seemed to come to a deadlock, Braden raised his hand and said in a neutral tone.
