Chapter 2838
In the meeting room, it was pin-drop silence.
Charity remained seated quietly and elegantly.
Only after she swallowed the coffee did she hear Director Carlson say, “Chairman Jewell, we’re now voting for the
position of the chairman. We’re talking business, so you shouldn’t make personal attacks. More importantly, you
shouldn’t use Chester’s kindness of saving Ms. Robbins to morally kidnap her.”
“Jeremy Carlson, this b*tch is siding with you, so you'll definitely stand up for her. I shall see for myself what you
guys can do. But let me remind you that since you plan on spending so much money on it, your family can get the
hell out of the board of directors if you can’t perform.”
With that, Hunter slammed the door and left in a fury.
Given that Director Carlson was provoked in public, his expression was ghastly.

Next was the election of the deputy chairperson position.
Director Carlson personally elected charity as the deputy chairperson.
Initially, a lot of people objected to it. However, under Director Carlson’s assertive decision, Charity became the
youngest deputy chairperson.
After the meeting ended, Director Carlson invited charity to his office for a chat.
“Director Robbins, thank you for today.” Director Carlson made some coffee as he said joyfully, “Let’s work together
in expanding the company in the future.”
“To be honest, I’m too inexperienced to take up the deputy chairperson position.” Charity said with some doubt and
wariness, “Also, you would win even if I hadn’t chosen to side with you.”
“Maybe not. Based on my understanding of the members, a few of them were swayed.” Director Carlson chuckled
and said, “Although I spent some money on having you back me, it had increased my chance of winning.”
“But you’ve given me too many perks, including both money and power.” Charity slowly leaned backward and
began to be frank. “ You could’ve given me either one, and it’s normal for people in the business industry to go
back on their word, what’s more, you should be able to see how many people admire me but aren’t satisfied that
I’m the new deputy chairperson.”
“Miss Robbins, you really are straightforward.” Director Carlson burst into laughter. “Considering your intelligence,
you should be able to guess why I gave you so many perks. Given that a selfish, presumptuous person like Chester
was willing to save you, it means you’re important to him. I’m trying to win you over to reassure and please him.”
Sure enough...
Deep down, Charity had roughly guessed it too. “But as chairman Jewell said, Chester is already crippled. Will
Director Carlson be guarded about him?”
“Hunter doesn’t understand his son well enough. Chester is still powerful. Despite his current state, he knows Jewell
Corporation like the back of his hand. I’ve confronted him numerous times.

Director Carlson laughed in a self-deprecating manner. “He might be lying on the bed right now, but if he objected, I
wouldn’t even have had the right to join this meeting.”
“That’s why you’ve chosen to have the same future development plan as Chester, huh?” charity saw the light.
“To be honest, I particularly hate Chester, but I might understand him more than his dad does,” Director Carlson
said with a helpless expression.
“Director Carlson, I hope we’ll work well together in the future.” Charity lifted the cup of coffee. “It’s getting late. I
should take my leave now.”
“Let me get someone to see you out.” Director Carlson said, “ Hunter will probably cause trouble for you.”
“Ken is waiting for me outside.”
Director Carlson was dumbfounded for a while before he laughed and said, “Ken is Chester’s right-hand man, so it
seems like Chester is really in love with you.”
Charity was noncommittal.
