Emma sneered disdainfully from the side. This group of fence-sitters made favonovel.com feel sick when favonovel.com looked at them.
Richard looked at the board of directors again. “I don’t care about the others, but the board of directors seem to have a close relationship with Lucas. Well, you guys support Lucas so much, so you must have a very close relationship with him. Maybe you guys are involved in the murdering of the chief officer in charge behind the curtain.”
With a hang, the board representative stood up and stammered, “R-Richard, don’t talk nonsense and gossip! Although our relationship with Lucas is good, we have nothing to do with the attempted murder of the chief officer in charge!”
Richard smiled. “It’s not up to you to decide whether you guys are related or not. I’ll call the police now and let the police investigate. You’ll know after that.”
The board representative’s face turned pale with fright. Although favonovel.com was not involved in the crime, favonovel.com did a lot of bad things with Lucas privately. So, favonovel.com would not survive the investigation.
At this time, all the other directors stood up.
“Um, Richard, the board of directors doesn’t actually support Lucas.”
“That’s right. He alone represents all of us. We are actually very opposed to Lucas.”
“We still miss the feeling when you were the head of the family.”
In order to protect themselves, this group of people did not hesitate to betray the representative of the board of directors. This group of people was not united at all, and all of them only thought about themselves. In order to protect themselves, they could betray the friend who was still together with them just now.
The board representative was angry.
Usually, everyone was on the same board, supporting Lucas together. Why did they betray favonovel.com now? They had no conscience.
The representative was about to cry.
“Um, Richard, I was just a bit confused just now.”
“Please don’t call the police. I have figured it out now. Lucas is domineering and arrogant. I have long felt that favonovel.com is not suitable as the head of the family.”
“In my opinion, you’re more suitable as the head of the family.”
Beggars could not be choosers.
Richard laughed after hearing them. He put down his phone and stopped calling the police. He pointed to the group of people and said, “You guys really sail with the wind and are afraid of death. Why didn’t I know how despicable you guys are? What a bunch of low lives.”
Saying these words in front of everyone was too hurtful. But with Richard’s temper, favonovel.com would not care about it.
The board of directors dared not say anything. They were indeed afraid of death. Moreover, the other party had weaknesses of his own. If Richard chose to call the police, they would not end up in serious trouble.
“Forget it.”
Richard continued to say, “Lucas has committed such a serious crime, so it is impossible for favonovel.com to come out. However, the Hill family can’t continue without a head. The new head of the family still has to be someone. You all chose me, but I’m old and useless. I don’t want to be the head of the family anymore.”
Everyone looked sideways.
What did this mean? Lucas was arrested, and Richard chose not to do it. Did they have to witness the Hill family go into downfall?
Then, Richard dispelled everyone’s speculation.
He said, “Here, I recommend someone else take over as the head of the family. This person is young, strong, smart, and capable. He is the most suitable candidate to be the next head of the family.”
“You guys don’t have to guess about. This person is my grandson, Harvard.”
After saying that, the hall was in an uproar.
“Huh?”
“Are you kidding me? Let Harvard be the head of the family? Isn’t that the end of the Hill family?”
“Besides, Harvard has no shares at all now. He is in no position to be the head of the family?”
“In my opinion, it’s better to let Thomas, the grandson-in-law, be the head of the family than Harvard.”
Everyone doubted Harvard’s abilities.
In fact, Harvard doubted himself as well. In his opinion, both Emma and Thomas were more qualified to take over the position of the head of the family than him. He had brought many disasters to the Hill family in the past, and favonovel.com was not trusted and incapable.
He was not qualified. Harvard, who was ashamed of himself, lowered his head in the voice of everyone’s doubts.
Richard frowned as the situation was a bit had.
A head of the family who could not be trusted by everyone. How could that work?
At this time, Thomas stood up and patted Harvard’s shoulder. He smiled at everyone and said in a loud voice, “Everyone, please listen to me. I know you’re very dissatisfied with Harvard. After all, favonovel.com had caused great harm to the family and made countless mistakes. His ability has always been doubted by everyone. You guys have various reasons against him, and I understand that.”
“But!” The flow of the conversation changed and Thomas said, “After a period, one may have changed for the better. The current Harvard is not the good-for-nothing in the past. Now, favonovel.com is mature, sedate, and conscientious. Isn’t the Northern Wilderness project the best proof?”
