Everyone exchanged glances, their gazes gradually becoming cautious and mysterious.
No one spoke, each lost in their own silence, calculating their next move.
Clearly, no one wanted to give such a great opportunity to others. Everyone wanted to benefit from it.
As expected, Neera had anticipated this outcome.
When she was the district president, those people naturally united to oppose her.
However, once the position of the district president was left vacant and the opportunity presented itself,
those people would immediately split apart, each looking out for their own interests.
Neera smirked. “It seems that all the seniors here have reservations and are unwilling to speak. What
about you, Mr. Lozano? Who do you think is suitable to be the district president?”
Matthew’s brow furrowed slightly. He remained silent.
He couldn’t take a stand. As a part of the guild’s upper echelon, he had to maintain an image of
fairness and impartiality.
Showing favoritism would give other families ammunition against him, leading to a collective attack.
Doing so would destabilize the guild. The losses would outweigh the gains.
His silence fell within Neera’s expectations.
A soft chuckle escaped her lips as she leisurely settled back into her seat. Leaning against the chair
back, she exuded an air of arrogance and confidence, all while maintaining a relaxed composure. “It
seems that even if I step down as the district president, you esteemed seniors still can’t decide on the
most suitable candidate. So, why all this fuss? Apart from embarrassing yourselves, what can you
gain?”
“What are you trying to say?” Bernard asked, his face stern and his voice cold.
Neera wiped the smile off her face, and as she lifted her gaze, a layer of frost suddenly surfaced in her
eyes, revealing a chilling coldness. “Is throwing one’s weight around the way of Bartitsu Guild? Is this
what you, who pride yourselves as prestigious and reputable families, do? It’s simply laughable!
Although the Gordon family may not hold a high position in the guild and may not be as powerful as
your families with long histories, we are not to be trifled with! Why are all the seniors causing such a
commotion today? Do you think the Gordon family is extinct? Although I am the newly appointed head
of the family, young and inexperienced, I will not allow others to trample on our Gordon family! If you
want to be tyrannical, come at us with all your might and have the Gordon family completely expelled
from the guild. I assure you, I won’t utter another word then!”
Those words left-
everyone present dumbfounded.
No one expected that such a young girl would dare to openly challenge them!
Avery was no different. His amber eyes were intensely fixed on Neera, filled with shock and admiration,
unable to look away.
At that very moment, Neera appeared calm on the surface, but inside, her heart was pounding.
She knew that with the Gordon family’s current strength, they were not yet capable of showing off in
front of these people.
However, that was the only thing she could do. Otherwise, the Gordon family would become a
laughingstock!
After a brief silence, she didn’t give those people a chance to speak and pressed on relentlessly.
“The Gordon family participated in the district presidential election, and all the elders also participated.
But what was the outcome? The one who seized the white flag was me, and according to the rules, the
one who should take the position as the district president should be me! Indeed, our Gordon family may
not be as powerful as you, but my team and I have climbed to the top of the mountain through
hardships and dangers to get the white flag! Yet, now you want to erase everything the Gordon family
has done and even covet the position of the district president. Is this what they call being domineering
in one’s own territory? During the trip to Mount Cloud, you were all submissive. But here, you started to
strike hard against our Gordon family. Isn’t your behavior a bit unsightly?”
“You! You scoundrel!” Someone slammed the table and stood up angrily, their face flushed with anger.
“Don’t think that just because you’ve become the district president, you can do whatever you want. In
Bartitsu Guild, it’s not. your place to call the shots!”
Neera sneered, “Our Gordon family may not have the final say, but neither do you. It’s Mr. Grey and Mr.
Lozano who do. So, this matter should be decided by Mr. Lozano, He initially said that today’s meeting
was to discuss the Gordon family’s ascension to the elder’s seat. Why are you elders suddenly bringing
up the matter of the district president? Mr. Lozano announced early on that whoever secures the district
president position can secure a seat among the elders. But now you want to dismiss this with a single
stroke. Who exactly has the final say in this guild, you or Mr. Grey and Mr. Lozano? Could it be that for
your own selfish desires, you’re willing to let the guild lose its credibility and become a laughingstock in
the entire Phison?”
Next, her gaze moved past the round table, landing directly on Matthew across from her. She gave him
a meaningful smile. “Mr. Lazano, this matter concerns the reputation of Bartitsu Guild, as well as your
credibility and that of Mr. Grey. Please, think it over carefully.”
As her words fell, pin-drop silence filled the room once again.
Avery’s gaze was pensive, looking at Neera and seemingly in deep thought.
Everyone else’s faces were grim, looking as if they had swallowed flies, extremely unsightly.
Someone wanted to retort, but even after opening their mouth, they didn’t know what to say.
As for Matthew, he sat with a deep and solemn expression, as steady as a rock, his face revealing a
complex emotion that was hard to discern.
