You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 338

Luther stared at Joyce in awe, and after a moment, lost his smile.

She just surprised him so much. What a treasure she was! Exactly how many more abilities did she have actually? Shooting champion, bomb disposal expert, car designer, and now what? Driverless technology? She had just never failed to surprise him!

The directors at the bottom, when they picked up their pens again, all had different expressions from before as they ticked the boxes on the voting paper.

After they were all done with the voting, each board member came forward one by one and placed the folded paper in the ballot box.

After the last board member had finished it all.

Casey opened the box for inspection on the spot.

At the beginning, actually none of the board members would vote for her. In the end, however, unsurprisingly, there was only one board member who voted against her, and the rest of the board members all voted yes.

The whole room applauded again.

Now that everything was done, Luther stood up and announced, "So today Joyce officially joins the board. This concludes today's interim board meeting, and the meeting is over."

Several board members stood up and came forward to congratulate, "Luther, you have been so lucky to have such a wife. I believe R&S Group will only be better and better."

Another board member stepped forward and said, "Luther, I'm sorry I misunderstood your wife earlier."

"It's okay, it's good that the misunderstanding is cleared up." Luther nodded his head to indicate. The directors had all spent dozens of years in this group and he was very polite.

"Luther, I'm sorry about Stephanie, I hope the real killer will be caught soon. Stephanie's vision is really unique." A director with silver hair walked forward and gently patted Luther's shoulder. He appeared to be more qualified than the other directors, and he had grown up with Luther, so his status was naturally different.

Luther shook his hand tightly, "Thank you, Mr. Read."

Joyce faintly swept a glance at the directors present, and gently shook her head. Of course, interests were more important to them than friendship. She thought of it early on, and no matter how much work Jacqueline did privately, in front of vested interests, who was willing to give up easily?

She made her research results public today also to repay Stephanie for all the love and trust she gave her.

She was the first to walk out of the conference room and pushed the door open.

She saw Jacqueline and Shelly both sitting outside the conference room, looking anxious and with complicated faces.

Just now they heard the applause from inside, and inevitably felt more nervous, not knowing what was going on inside.

Now that they saw Joyce walking out with no expression on her face.

Jacqueline immediately stepped forward, her heart unsure, but her mouth harsh as ever, "What, you failed, right?"

Shelly gave a "humph", "Heh, that’s quick."

Joyce shrugged her shoulders and didn't say anything. She didn't bother to talk to them anymore, turned and walked away.

At that moment, a board member came out, the same person Jacqueline had talked to at the beginning.

Jacqueline saw him come out and hastily pulled him aside, asking eagerly, "Did it go well?"

The director shook his head, "Sorry it didn't work out the way you wanted it to."

Jacqueline's face fell, her efforts were all in vain?

"Why?" She asked incredulously. Why? She had lobbied so many people, and all of whom had promised her, but why did they all vote for Joyce today? Can't even do this little thing? Is it so hard to bring down Joyce?

"Was it my son? Did he finally force the resolution through?" She thought about it, and that was the only possibility that would make sense.
