“Stop it!”

“It was Gale’s choice to let Dean take up the position as the head of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce. How much has Gale contributed to the group when he was alive? Aren’t you afraid that karma will hit you in the face if you dare say that Gale has chosen the wrong person?!”

Shawn let out a deep breath after speaking. He was old now. He did not wish to earn a fortune. He only wanted the members of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce to be united so that all of them could run this organization well. Besides, Gale was to be credited for everything that the Haddock Chamber of Commerce had achieved thus far. As Gale’s close friend back when he was still alive, he would not allow anyone to cause trouble.

“Stop making noise!” Rio was evidently impatient.

Everyone in the Haddock Chamber of Commerce was scattered now that Gale was gone. Everything was now out of order. He could only gain control by suppressing everyone with absolute strength.

“Dean, why don’t we get down to business? Let me ask you this one last time. Are you going to give up on your position or not? Even if you don’t give up on your position, we can carryout a vote to select a new candidate as the leader of the group. What do you think are the odds that you’d win?”

“You!”

This was a blatant threat!

Dean did not expect Rio to go to such crazy lengths over this position!

“I’ll give you a minute’s time to consider this.” Rio smiled and raised his hand to look at his watch.

“You have 58 more seconds.”

Plenty of people were giving Dean “advice” by the side.
