Chapter 301
Now that Eddy’s support was quaranteed, Layla found herself very much at ease.
Her smile widened, and she purposely planted a kiss on his cheek in front of all the people watching them. “Thank
you, Eddy.”
That said, she stared at Caroline as it she were trying to challenge her.
However, Caroline had gotten used to Layla’s tricks a long time ago and was able to maintain her composure.
What Layla did meant something to the others in the room, and their eyes locked on Eddy.
At first, he was stunned by her kiss, but later, he felt annoyed. In fact, he was pissed at her for doing that.
The strange thing was that he had never felt this way toward her. Still, he didn’t show much of it on his face. His
brows merely knitted together.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe other people took this as him giving her silent permission to do as she pleased. This also meant that he
admitted to having a relationship with her.
Those who believed that Layla would win the election became even more confident about their decision to give her
their support.
Layla and Eddy then approached Caroline, who looked away from them to stare at the documents in her hands..
Seeing her ignore him somehow made Eddy feel frustrated again.
He silently swore to himself that he would give up everything and give her the CEO position at Evans Group if she
could just smile at him
like she used to in the past.
He would do anything, even if her smile only lasted for a split second.
Much to his disappointment, Caroline didn’t smile at him as she continued reading the documents with her head
bowed. Clenching his hands, Eddy sat down on the chair that one of the employees had brought him.
The two shareholders on Caroline’s side felt their hearts palpitating wildly in their chests at Eddy’s arrival
Initially, they had been confident in her abilities when they saw her take out the ledger.
Now, though, even Eddy was on Layla’s side.
“Don’t fret.” Caroline’s head was still lowered when she spoke.
“This is a meeting between the shareholders of Evans Group, not Morrison Corp. Nothing will change, even with
Eddy here.”
Her voice had a certain power to it, although she spoke softly. “Of course, I’ll hand the ledger over to you if you
want to change your mind
now.”
The two beside her stared at each other for a moment and fell silent at her words. Just then, Eddy checked his

am already. Shouldn’t the meeting start already?”
No one else had the guts to speak aloud until the silence in the air was punctured by Liam’s voice. “There are only a
few of us shareholders here, so we can skip the formalities. We should just start voting now.”
“Who’s going to be the first to cast their vote?” Eddy’s gaze swept over the faces of those sitting around the table
and paused briefy when he saw Caroline. She still hadn’t met his eyes.
The first to rise from his seat was Luke, one of those who sided with Layla. “I vote for Layla. Even though she’s
inexperienced, her network is vast, and I believe that Evans Group will have a brighter future with her leading us.”
As soon as he finished his sentence, the room erupted with applause.
Next, Tom, the man beside Luke, started to speak with enthusiasm. “I agree with Luke. I’ve seen how she fares in
management and in learning new things. She might not have much experience, but I have faith in her. Give her
some time, and she’ll surely restore Evans
Group to its former glory.”
Hence came another round of applause. There wasn’t a third person to voice his or her support for Lavia after
quite some time.
