An Incompetent Chairman
But no one feared Claude even though he was the chairman.
He was nowhere near capable of managing the company. Since he took over the company, it has been
suffering financially. If things went on like this, the White Group would go bankrupt one day.
A lot of people would love to see Gloria replace him.
After all, Gloria was the daughter of the former chairman! She was as shrewd and capable as him!
Ted said with such a proud look on his face, “Miss White is suspended. I have no idea why she‘s still
doing her job. Didn‘t she think she would mess things up?”
Claude took a deep breath to moderate his anger and said with a grim face, “I‘ll talk to her, and she‘ll
not interfere in these issues during the suspension.”
Ted smiled, “I am relieved to hear that. Miss White can‘t be reckless again, or everybody may think
you‘re incompetent.”
Howard scowled at Ted. “Ted, mind your words!”
Ted looked puzzled. “What? Did I say anything wrong?”
Ted was looking at Yvonne when he said that.
Yvonne stifled a laugh and shook her head. “Of course not. Mr. White is the chairman of the company,
and everyone trusts him. If his daughter doesn‘t even listen to him, then I’ll consider him incompetent. I
believe in Mr. White‘s ability, but Howard…”
Yvonne fixed her eyes on Howard and continued, “Why were you so angry? Did you think the chairman
couldn‘t do it?”
Howard‘s face turned red, and he couldn‘t say a word of rebuttal.
Lucille frowned slightly. “Guys, knock it off. Which company are you going to choose, the Brown Group
or the Collins Group?
In an instant, the crowd fell silent.
They all had their own thoughts, but no one was in a hurry to say anything.
Seeing this, Lucille began with a sneer, “Okay, I‘ll go first. I suggest cooperating with the Collins Group.
After all, Mr. Collins and Miss White will get married someday. And they‘ll get closer through
cooperation.”
Ted smiled, “That makes sense, but you have to know Gloria talks business on behalf of the company,
not Angela. Mr. Collins and Gloria were husband and wife. Do you think she should step out?”
His words left everyone thinking.
Ted added, “What would people say? Would they praise Mr. White and Miss White for their contribution
to the company, or would they despise them for profiting from it…?”
Ted left his sentence hanging.
But everyone knew it was all about sarcasm.
Yvonne didn‘t want to spend much time on this. She spoke, “We have to ask Gloria about this.
Whichever we choose, we‘ll offend one of them anyway.”
Oliver, who sided with Ted, nodded. “I think we should work with the Brown Group. In my opinion, Miss
White and Mr. Collins are so close. It‘s okay even if we offend him. For the sake of the White family, he
will get along fine with us. But if we offend Mr. Brown… you know, he is not as nice as he looks.”
Claude‘s followers said nothing, for they could not decide now. Claude had the final say, and they
would take a stand after he decided.
