Chapter 685: Chapter 681: After all, who is the fool?
So, all the previous rumors about her being powerful were just exaggerations.
In fact, without Roy Lewis’s support, she wouldn’t be anything!
Harris Dunn thought so, and his contempt for Richelle Dunn had only grown lately.
When the scandals about Richelle Dunn and Nathan Caroule broke out a few days ago, Harris Dunn believed them to be true.
Because in his view, there is nothing more capable of making a talented man surrender than beauty.
Now, seeing Denise Munni still able to chat with Richelle Dunn and laugh, he couldn’t help but curse them under his breath.
Two idiots!
Richelle Dunn and Denise Munni, ignoring Harris Dunn’s sharp gaze, sat in their respective positions.
“Ms. Munni, I hope you’ll enlighten us today.”
Harris Dunn’s words were filled with a provocative edge.
Denise Munni nodded at him, “Mr. Dunn, same to you!”
Harris Dunn smiled politely at her again, “Ms. Munni, I didn’t expect you to be so broad-minded – I admire that!”
Denise Munni could tell that he was alluding to the rumors on the internet recently, and was trying to sow discord!
Denise Munni sneered, “Indeed, my broad-mindedness may not be an admirable trait, but it’s still a bit more noble than certain people who plot against their siblings, steal their property, endanger their lives, and kidnap their children!”
Denise Munni had never liked or appreciated Jayden Dunn and Harris Dunn.
She had once discussed with Richelle Dunn in private, “Richelle, how come you and they are of the same blood but your characters are so different?”
Richelle Dunn replied at the time, “Who knows? Maybe when my grandmother gave birth to Jayden, she lacked the human gene. That’s why the entire Jayden family is nothing but animals!”
Having heard many stories about the Dunn family’s animalistic behavior from Richelle Dunn, Denise Munni’s impression of them had reached an all-time low.
If she were to argue with Harris Dunn, she could list a hundred more charges against him.
Hariss Dunn’s face turned green with anger, but considering it was a public occasion, he couldn’t swear nasty words.
Instead, he ground his teeth and lowered his voice to warn her.
“You just keep getting along with your good sister. One day, she might give you a big surprise!”
But today, he would be the one to give the two of them a big surprise.
Harris Dunn sneered in his heart, let’s see if you two can laugh until the end today!
The board meeting began as usual.
The agenda proceeded as usual until the voting on the new project proposal began. Harris Dunn proposed for the fourth time to establish a branch (factory) in Leutonia.
The directors’ votes were almost identical to the previous three times. Richelle Dunn and Denise Munni, like before, cast their votes against it.
Just as the secretary was about to announce the results, the conference room door suddenly burst open.
“I represent the president of United Ventures and will personally cast this vote!”
All the directors looked back, while Denise Munni’s face changed.
Turning her head, she saw Tania, United Ventures’ president’s secretary, walk in hurriedly.
Denise Munni quickly got up to greet her, “Tania, what brings you here?”
Tania handed Denise Munni a document, “Ms. Munni, the president has urgently sent this document authorizing me as the decision-maker for the Dunn Group’s voting.”
Denise Munni couldn’t believe it, “That’s impossible! I didn’t receive any instructions from the president.”
Tania sincerely reminded her, “Ms. Munni, you can check your email now, or you can directly look at this letter of authorization. It has the president’s handwritten signature with the company seal.”
Denise Munni unfolded the letter of authorization, and as Tania had said, the black and white document clearly conveyed United Ventures’ president’s intention to have Tania temporarily replace Denise Munni in exercising the voting rights.
Besides the official seal, there was also Denise Munni’s very familiar president’s handwritten signature.
For a moment, Denise Munni couldn’t understand why the president changed their stance this time, especially since after the first vote against the proposal, she had analyzed the pros and cons with the president, who supported her decision.
For the next two times, she submitted the same report as she did the first time, and the president still had no objection.
So why did the president change their mind this time?
“Tania…”
Tania patted Denise Munni’s shoulder, “If you still don’t believe it, just check your email.”
Denise Munni suddenly felt hesitant to check her inbox, fearing that besides the letter of authorization, there might be a letter of dismissal as well.
Denise Munni had been with the president for many years, and it was the president who supported and cultivated her from the beginning.
Until now, the president had always been very trusting towards her.
Could this sudden change indicate that the president no longer trusted her?
Denise Munni’s face looked a bit unwell, and Harris Dunn couldn’t help but provoke her from the side.
“Yes, Ms. Munni, if you have any doubts, just open your email and take a look. It will all make sense.”
In fact, Harris Dunn wasn’t sure what Denise Munni would receive in her email, but since his old friend said that the matter was a sure thing this time, he had nothing to worry about.
Denise Munni bit her lip, sat back down, and opened her email.
As expected, there was an email from the president in her inbox.
When she opened it, she found an identical letter of authorization.
