"Well, uh�" Frederick adjusted his glasses, seemingly awkward. "The new chairman of KCL said they really like Beach City, and wish to have a goddaughter. So, their request is for you to say 'Daddy, I was wrong, please forgive me just this once and attend this conference!' in front of all the cameras."

After hearing this everyone gasped. Seraphina's expression turned stiff."The chairman is.. so funny.."

Six of the seven leaders in the conference room burst out laughing. Akio even started clapping enthusiastically.

"Hahaha, Amazing! I like this new chairman, they have spunk! I must get the chance to work with them!"

On the contrary, Stefan was the only one who seemed extremely solemn, and he frowned deeply. 'Why those words sound so familiar? Couldn't it be that...'

After a few moments of hesitation, Seraphina decided that she should go all out. She stood up from her seat with a bright smile and declared, "It is an absolute honor to be their god-daughter. I'm more than happy to do as they say! Why wouldn't I cooperate?"

After that, she turned to the cameras and said obediently, "Daddy, I was wrong, please forgive me just this once and attend this conference!" Second later, she started cursing inwardly. 'Damn that chairman, I've never been so humiliated in my entire life! But... I'm doing this to win Stefan's heart, so I'll bear with it.'

Frederick finally Let out a sigh of relief. He spoke to the other party over the phone, then turned back to the crowd. "Thank you for your passionate speech, Ms. Murphy, the chairman said they are very happy to have a daughter like you. They will enter soon , so let's welcome them with a round of applause."

Soon enough, the entire venue was drowned in cheers. Everyone was craning their necks, hoping to catch a glimpse of this mysterious and unique new chairman.

The door to the conference room was opened by the staff, and the new chairman walked in casually. Instantly, the area erupted into chaos.

"Oh my god! Is this some sort of mistake?! What is she doing here?!"

"Impossible! My eyes must be deceiving me!"

Ignoring the people's doubtful stares, the chairman beamed and nodded. "Hello everyone, I am Renee Everheart, the new chairman of KCL Group. Sorry for the wait."

Then, she slowly walked towards Stefan and sat down next to him.

�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, Reneen 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?!� JrNovels.com
