The last vote.

Everyone in the conference room, especially those standing on Vader's side, held their breath.

Of course, it must be the same for someone like Rioco. After all, this vote is also very crucial to him.

If Talina can win this vote, then his gamble will be won this time.

Talina, on the other hand, was very calm because she began to trust Li Jiu.

Trust this handsome young man who has accomplished many incredible things.

Compared with successfully traveling to and from Nagsol safely, defeating Blackbeard, escaping safely from the pursuit of Nagsol Governor's Mansion, and successfully winning votes, it is much simpler.

She just started thinking about how to repay him.

When she asked Li Jiu for help, she didn't expect such a situation.

This matter may not be difficult for Li Jiu, but for her, it is extremely critical. It is related to whether everything her father left behind can be preserved.

She has accepted the fact that her father will not come back, so she will work hard to preserve everything her father left behind.

The conference room suddenly became eerily quiet, with only the rustling sound of Henry opening the last ballot.

As a wealthy organization like the Merchants Association, it is natural that it cannot use rough papyrus, but soft and tough kraft paper. Therefore, the sound of the paper unfolding is actually very pleasant and smooth, but it sounds strange to many people's ears.

It's extremely unbearable.

They want to know the results.

This vote...

Henry also held his breath. He also put his own reputation and identity on the line. Although he wouldn't be completely defeated if he lost this time, he would always be in an embarrassing situation.

The best, of course, is to win.

When the kraft paper was unfolded, he was the first to see the content. At that moment, he wanted to eat the paper.

Because, the above content is in favor.

16 votes.

Talina won.

His whole body froze there.

How can it be?!

He is not unaware of the situation. Ever since Don Estan disappeared, the influence of the Estan family has been declining day by day.

Even if his daughter is a famous adventurer, it is useless. Everyone is in business, who would care about such a reputation.

That's why he turned to Vader.

Vida has obviously taken care of half of the people, but there are still several people who he has to do the work himself.

how so?

When did the remaining people turn to Talina?

Why did they do this?

I can't figure it out at all.

"What's the result?" someone asked impatiently.

Others secretly scolded this man for being stupid. You could tell by the look on Henry's face that the result must be wrong, otherwise he would have announced it long ago.

Vader also felt as if something was stuck in his throat, which was very uncomfortable.

He already knew he lost.

What he hopes most at the moment is that Henry can eat the piece of paper and say that the result is 15:15.

Unfortunately, it was impossible for Henry to do this. Even if he turned to him, he would not do such a thing that would completely ruin his reputation and make him unable to gain a foothold in the Merchants Association.

So, Henry slowly unfolded the results.

"Agree." He said softly, added a stroke to the statistics behind him, and said to Talina with a smile, "Congratulations, Talina."

His smile had become sincere now, as if he had wanted Talina to succeed him from the very beginning.

Those present who supported Vader collectively froze, they could not accept this result at all.

Talina, how did you win?

So what do they do?

He subconsciously looked at Vader. Vader's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He pursed his lips, but couldn't say a word. He was no longer as high-spirited as when he just came in.

Rioco couldn't believe it. Although he desperately hoped for a miracle to happen, when it actually happened, he didn't believe it.

How did the lightless fish do all this?

"Thank you, thank you for your support. I will uphold my father's legacy and lead everyone to move forward." Finally, Talina, the only protagonist today, stood up, smiled, and looked at her without any coldness.

Everyone present felt like a queen ascending the throne.

She has also grown up. The death of her father has allowed her to grow from a female adventurer who went her own way to a mature... head of the family.

Everyone is not very comfortable, but form is stronger than people. Now that the voting results have come out, no matter what the result is, everyone must accept it.

This is something that the Merchants Association has determined since its inception. If the results of the proceedings are not taken seriously, then there is no need for the Merchants Association to exist at all.

Vader just regrets now, regretting why he wasn't more careful. It would be great if he could find someone to divine before the meeting. As long as he found some signs of something wrong in advance, he might be able to change the result.

After all, the overall trend was originally his.

Damn it, what the hell is going on.

On the one hand, he now regrets, and on the other hand, he begins to be afraid of the thunderous wrath of his uncle, the real ruler of Leuthe, the Marquis of Sitians.

Originally, I had a guarantee that this matter would be handled.

It was not easy for him to get an excellent opportunity from his uncle, but he screwed it up.

He couldn't imagine the consequences.

"Mr. Vader, are you dissatisfied with me or with everyone's decision?" At this moment, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

When he raised his head, he found that everyone in the conference room was applauding, as if to congratulate Talina on taking over the position of vice chairman.

Even those who were in the same camp as Vader were no exception.

This time, that time.

Vader was alone in a daze.

Although he had mixed feelings in his heart, he was not stupid after all. He immediately laughed and said, "Of course not, I'm just so happy that someone has finally taken over Tang's position. I believe that Tang in Heaven knows about it and will also

Will you be very happy?"

He deliberately used such a statement here to say that Don Estan was dead.

He wanted to use this to stimulate Talina.

But Talina had already passed the period of grief, and this incident was no longer harmful to her, so she just said calmly: "I think so."

This reaction was unexpected by Vader, and at the same time he sighed inwardly, this woman is really cold-blooded and difficult to deal with.

However, Talina hurriedly added: "Since I have become the vice chairman, then I think I should succeed the position of acting chairman. Who among you is in favor and who is against it?"

And Li Jiu, who really made all this happen, was in the garden of Talina's house. He had just finished breakfast and took Sophie for a leisurely walk to eat.
