Everyone immediately turned to Seraphina.
Enter title…
“Huh? Is… Is it really up to me?” The woman was stunned. Although the Murphys were the
biggest sponsor of the event, the family was actually not familiar with the electronics
industry. Seraphina had only been acknowledged because of all the money her family had
spent, so she felt a bit insecure attending such an event. However, hearing that she would
be the sole reason behind the success of this event, she felt pride bloom in her.
“Yes, Miss Murphy, the newest chairman of KCL, requested you, specifically, to cooperate
with them…”
“I’ll do anything for them! It’s an honor for me to be of assistance!” Seraphina was even
more excited after hearing that the new chairman had personally requested her. After all, if
she managed to befriend this new director, she would become a renowned figure within the
technology industry as well. Powerful and rich businessmen would have to put effort into
getting on her good side if they wished to work with KCL.
If that happened, Stefan would definitely have more respect for her, and rely on her even
more.
“Well, uh…” Frederick adjusted his glasses, seemingly awkward. “The new chairman of KCL
said they really like Beach City, and wish to have a goddaughter. So, their request is for you
to say ‘Daddy, I was wrong, please forgive me just this once and attend this conference!’ in
front of all the cameras.”
After hearing this, everyone gasped.
Seraphina’s expression turned stiff. “The chairman is… so funny…”
Six of the seven leaders in the conference room burst out laughing.
Akio even started clapping enthusiastically. “Hahaha, amazing! I like this new chairman,
they have spunk! I must get the chance to work with them!”
On the contrary, Stefan was the only one who seemed extremely solemn, and he frowned
deeply. ‘Why do those words sound so familiar? Could it be that…’
After a few moments of hesitation, Seraphina decided that she should go all out. She stood
up from her seat with a bright smile and declared, “It is an absolute honor to be their
goddaughter. I’m more than happy to do as they say! Why wouldn’t I cooperate?”
After that, she turned to the cameras and said obediently, “Daddy, I was wrong, please
forgive me just this once and attend this conference!”
Seconds later, she started cursing inwardly. ‘Damn that chairman, I’ve never been so
humiliated in my entire life! But… I’m doing this to win Stefan’s heart, so I’ll bear with it.”‘
Frederick finally let out a sigh of relief. He spoke to the other party over the phone, then
turned back to the crowd. “Thank you for your passionate speech, Miss Murphy, the
chairman said they are very happy to have a daughter like you. They will enter soon, so let’s
welcome them with a round of applause.”
Soon enough, the entire venue was drowned in cheers. Everyone was craning their necks,
hoping to catch a glimpse of this mysterious and unique new chairman.
The door to the conference room was opened by the staff, and the new chairman walked in
casually. Instantly, the area erupted into chaos.
“Oh my god! Is this some sort of mistake?! What is she doing here?!”
“Impossible! My eyes must be deceiving me!”
Ignoring the people’s doubtful stares, the chairman beamed and nodded. “Hello everyone, I
am Renee Everheart, the new chairman of KCL Group. Sorry for the wait.”
Then, she slowly walked towards Stefan and sat down next to him.
