A Miracle Fault novel Chapter 45

The audience was silent and held their breath while waiting for Edison to say the name.

Frank seemed to have known the result a long time ago. He pulled his shirt indifferently and leaned forward slightly, ready to take the stage to accept congratulations.

Edison's gaze slowly moved to Frank and then away from him.

At this time, the door of the meeting room slowly opened. Paul pushed a wheelchair and was followed by Edison's assistant, Chand.

Edison's eyes lit up, and his eyes looked at the man in the wheelchair. He was dressed in a dark suit with a face so handsome that he looked as if he walked out of a painting. He seemed to have descended from heaven, and he exuded an aura of wisdom and prescience all over.

His wheelchair rolled over the golden light and fragmented shadows on the ground, slowly appearing in everyone's sight. His black eyes sharply glanced past all the shareholders.

His gaze stopped on Frank's body. His thin lips curled up slightly, and he smiled. He then looked away and accurately stopped next to the grey-haired old man.

"Grandpa, I'm back to the Byrne Group."

Edison felt as if he saw his grandson at a young age. The young man in his memory never frowned, even though he suffered endless physical and mental torture. It was as if his sadness was eliminated.

He felt that he owed Stefan more than Keegan. Today he finally came back. He looked at the boy in the wheelchair who he loved with all his heart with excitement. He had finally grown up!

Looking at each other, Edison suddenly stood up and picked up the microphone on the stand to announce: "The new leader of the group is — Stefan!"

The entire conference room became peculiarly silent. Everyone looked at Stefan at the same time and then turned to look at Frank.

Frank started to panic the moment Stefan arrived in his wheelchair, but he firmly believed that regardless of how much the old man loved that cripple, he would never let him become the President.

Because a large group could not be handed over to a person in a wheelchair.

But he heard Stefan's name!

He thought he had heard it wrong. When everyone looked at him, he realized that the person who Mr. Byrne announced was definitely Stefan.

He staggered to his feet and looked at Edison with panic. "Grandpa, what did you say? Did you say the wrong name?"

He stood up and squeezed his fists slightly. He did not believe it. He had worked so hard in the past nine years to build up his forces. There was no way that everything was over today!

Callum looked at how Frank was about to lose control and immediately walked over. "Dad, didn't you say that the new President of the group is Frank? Why did you announce it to be Stefan today? This is not the time for jokes. Stefan has stayed on the island for so many years and has never been capable of managing a corporation. This won't be convincing."

Edison's cold eyes glanced at Callum. He knew that his son and daughter-in-law had always favoured Frank. Ever since Stefan moved to Soul Island, they never visited him. "Who told you that I said that Frank is the only candidate for the position of President? Previously, Stefan didn't want to come back to the Byrne Group. But now he's back, I think he is more suitable to be the President of the Byrne Group than Frank."

"It's..." Callum looked at Edison and dared not say anything after all.

The people below looked down and whispered. They all watched as the two brothers vied with each other for the position of President and waited to see who would win.
