Shadows of Destiny: A Tale of Liberation

Chapter 917

“What a coincidence, Mr. Hunt… we meet again.” Renee nodded at Stefan, a prideful smile on her face.

“Indeed. You’ve been planning this for a very long time, haven’t you? What a great performance!” Stefan said,

raising an eyebrow.

‘Tsk tsk, it really was her!’ Stefan didn’t seem shocked in the slightest. Instead, he felt strangely content. ‘Oh, Renee

Everheart, of course it’s you. You took quite a huge risk this time, huh? I have to admit that I’m impressed.’

The woman’s status left him feeling much more relieved than before. At the very least, as the ‘new chairman of

KCL’, he wouldn’t have to worry about her being taken advantage of. Moreover, her wealth was now enough to give

four generations of her family a life of luxury.

“Yarrow, what is the meaning of this? Why is this woman here?! Don’t tell me she really is the new chairman of

KCL?”

“Exactly, Yarrow, you have to give us a reasonable explanation. Is KCL Group toying with us elders?!”

The attendees immediately voiced their concerns. They just couldn’t accept the fact that this woman, who they

looked down upon, could possess this much power in their industry. They were convinced that it was all a grave

mistake, or that KCL Group was playing a prank on them.

Seraphina was also throwing a temper tantrum in the meeting room, and was trying to barge in to confront Renee.

Her rage seemed to have consumed all of her rationality, and her lovely image from before was no more.

“Let me in! If you don’t, my family will hear about this!” However, no matter how much she protested now, she and

her entire family had already been ridiculed live on television.

Facing the crowd’s pressure once again, Frederick explained hastily, “Please calm down, everyone. Miss Everheart

really is the newest chairman of KCL Group, and the one who invented the G6 chip. She was able to become the

biggest shareholder in KCL through her own efforts, and has single-handedly pushed the entire industry forward by

nearly a decade. It definitely isn’t a stretch to call her our hero, so please, respect and support her!”

Despite this, Frederick’s words were still unable to convince the group of elderly men.

“Cut the crap! This woman must’ve manipulated her way into this position! KCL Group is definitely corrupted, and

our association will never be united! We should vote on whether we should allow this woman to be a part of this

conference!”

“Exactly, we have to! Every member of the conference carries an important responsibility in our industry – not just

anyone can join our cause!”

The people were quite agitated, and their fierce attitudes made it seem like Renee was a witch they wanted to burn

at the stake.

It was basically a typical showcase of sexism and age discrimination; they just refused to believe that a young

woman like her would ever possess such skill and knowledge, let alone the right to obtain a higher status than

themselves.

“This isn’t quite right though. The new chairman of KCL Group should naturally be a part of the conference. It would

be unfair to Miss Everheart if we were to change the rules…” Frederick protested, clearly in a difficult position.

He genuinely admired Renee. In his opinion, the woman was an absolute prodigy in technology, and was clearly

much more knowledgeable than these old men who loved flaunting their wealth and status.

It would be unjust for them to doubt her just because of her gender and age…

Just as the atmosphere was becoming tense, Stefan raised his hand calmly. “I’m fine with her joining.”
