Damn it! Don't call me your wife after we break up
Chapter 117 Voting
The huge long conference table was densely packed with people in suits and ties. Most of them were Alphas with white hair on their temples, and they were arguing with red faces.
There was chaos and noise in the meeting room.
At the very top, a young blond Alpha was sitting with a lazy posture and a thin scar at the corner of his eye.
His attitude was not convincing enough. As expected, someone in the audience looked unhappy and finally couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Jans, I told you long ago that you can't hold that position! It's only been a few days and you've created such a big mess!"
"He may not have the ability, but he has a lot of ambition and appetite! Mr. Huo is not dead yet, but someone is eager to usurp the throne..."
These words actually expressed the thoughts of most people. What Jens did was not at all upright.
But there has never been a clean person in the Horton family. Having ambition is a good thing. However, Jens cannot convince the public and stop the gossips. This is his problem.
Jens sat in the upper seat, looking up faintly, the corner of his mouth raised in a sharp arc.
Those narrow blue eyes were narrowed, and the smile did not reach the bottom of the eyes.
"Why, am I wrong?"
boom--
The conference room suddenly fell silent. The middle-aged man who had just spoken indignantly had a bloody hole between his eyebrows, and blood was oozing out.
The still warm body fell to the ground with a thud.
Jens was shaking the wooden door leisurely, with a nonchalant smile in his eyes.
"Go on, who else wants to say something?"
He leaned back in his chair, his shirt collar wide open, revealing large patches of intricate tattoos.
After a long time, those who were frightened came to their senses and said tremblingly: "...It's crazy!"
Jens is pure lunatic.
But no one expected that he would be so bold as to kill the company's veterans openly.
He waved his hand and two men came in and dragged the body out.
The meeting room finally became quiet.
"Since everyone is silent, I'll assume that you have no objection. Don't let me hear such crazy talk again in the future, okay?" Jens knocked on the table, with hostility hidden deep in his eyes.
No one spoke.
Great, that's how it should be.
He leaned back and closed his eyes...
A familiar, old and majestic voice came from outside the door——
"You are so impressive now, scaring others so much that they dare not say a word. I have experienced your methods during this period of time."
Jens turned around and saw Vincent Houghton walking in with the help of the old butler, his face gloomy.
"How did you..."
how can that be possible?
He clearly locked up the old man?
Jens frowned with a gloomy expression, and the next second he saw a tall and stern figure enter the meeting room.
Enigma's innate strength makes people subconsciously submit, which is the repressive force carried in the genes.
There was a hint of restlessness in the conference room.
Vincent Houghton was having trouble standing, so the old butler helped him to his seat. Jens paused and stepped aside.
The old man sat down.
Zhaners looked at Qi Yu with obvious hostility in his eyes, gloomy and dark.
Two hours ago.
The black-clad bodyguards cleared out the people guarding the castle, and Qi Yu walked into the dim room.
He never thought that his cruel and ruthless grandfather would have such a day...
"You're finally here, cough cough cough... He really means a lot to you." Even though Vincent Holden was lying on the bed, there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
But Qi Yu didn't care what he said.
He stood there without moving, and the old butler behind him came forward and helped Vincent Horton up.
"Go to the company and clean up the mess."
Vincent Holden coughed a few times, with a gloomy mood in his eyes, and responded: "I still need this little bit of strength."
So we see this scene now.
Vincent Holden's cold eyes swept across everyone present, and he said, "I think everyone knows what happened these days, so I won't say any more nonsense."
“I am indeed in poor health, and the Holden family should have a new heir… cough cough cough.”
Vincent Holden shifted his gaze from Jens to Qi Yu.
He said coldly: "Today, I will put my words here. The only successor I recognize is Qi Yu."
"Anyone else wants to take this position unless I die first."
Zhaners's face was very ugly. He sneered and immediately retorted: "Why?"
"He is from the Horton family. Doesn't that mean I don't have the blood of the Horton family?"
"He has to be the successor," Jens covered his face and laughed, his eyes gloomy: "Is it because he differentiated Enigma? When he was still a waste, you abandoned him faster than anyone else."
Vincent Horton would not tolerate Jens's insolence here, but his health was not as good as before.
It seems that the young people can no longer be controlled.
He was so angry that his vision went dark. He held his chest and was about to speak when he suddenly realized that Qi Yu had spoken.
The voice was exceptionally cold, yet filled with awe-inspiring pride.
"Yes, it's as simple as you said. I'm Enigma. What do you have to argue with me?"
Qi Yu looked at Zhaners with obvious disdain in his expression, his condescending attitude, and his arrogant words.
What Jens couldn't accept the most was that the useless guy who had accomplished nothing at the beginning eventually became Enigma at the top of the pyramid.
And because of Enigma's identity, he doesn't even need to fight for it, the inheritance rights will never be given to him.
Jens refused to accept and he denied it.
Why Qi Yu?
His thoughts were clearly written in his eyes, Qi Yu saw it very clearly, and he said calmly.
"Everyone is here today, so let's vote. It's fair and just, right? I didn't threaten them with anything. You can see who they choose."
The old butler stood beside Vincent Horton and said loudly: "Everyone can vote by raising their hands. Everyone has one vote and no abstention is allowed."
"Please raise your hands if you choose Young Master Qi Yu."
In the conference room, those people looked at each other, and then raised their hands one after another.
It seemed that there was no need to count. With a glance, one could see a sea of raised arms.
"Did you see it clearly?"
Qi Yu frowned. If someone else encountered this situation, they might not even have time to be happy.
But Qi Yu couldn't be said to be happy.
In fact, there is one thing that Jens said that is correct. Is it because he is Enigma that these people support him unconditionally?
“Have you had enough these days? Come, kick him out. He will have nothing to do with the Horton family from now on…” Vincent Horton would not show mercy to Jens. When he was sick, Jens took the opportunity to seize power from him.
This is unbearable.
Logically, Jens should have been very angry, but his face looked ugly for a few seconds, and soon he smiled again.
"Don't bother, I'll go by myself."
Passing by Qi Yu.
His eyes were sinister, and he murmured: "Then you must protect your things well..."
