Love Unspoken

A ripple of uncertainty passed through the room as the assembly exchanged glances, their reactions held in check.Undeterred, Wayne pressed on, "I vouch for Landon's competence.

Under his guidance, Landry International has remained unblemished.""He is more than qualified to assume the role of CEO." His words hung in the air for a moment before he continued, "Now, let's see a show of hands from those in favor of his appointment."

As he raised his own hand, a few others followed his lead. However, when the votes were tallied, only a sparse two or three hands were raised, with many others wavering.

The camera panned across the room, the soft glow of the projector casting an ethereal light on the dimly lit boardroom, revealing a myriad of expressions."Is there a problem?"

Wayne challenged, "If anyone disagrees, speak up. It's perfectly acceptable to voice your concerns."A shareholder, his hair streaked with gray, interjected, "Shouldn't we wait for Alexander? He's one of us—a shareholder."

Wayne cast a sidelong glance at the man, "The meeting has progressed this far without him. Do you honestly believe he will show up?""Are you implying that if he's not here, you won't take a stand?""Remember, you are shareholders, not subordinates! Do you need someone else's approval to express your opinions?"

Wayne's voice reverberated through the room, laced with a hint of anger.

His words stirred the room, whispers and murmurs echoing off the walls; everyone could sense Wayne's irritation."Any other objections?"

Wayne's gaze was piercing, sending an unspoken message that the meeting would not adjourn until everyone had made their decision. Under his intense scrutiny, a few more hands tentatively rose. The vote was now evenly split, six to six. Just one more vote in favor would tip the balance.

Wayne's gaze shifted to a man seated diagonally opposite him, a slightly balding man with a hint of a double chin, giving him an affable, prosperous appearance. The man met Wayne's stare and gave an awkward smile as he slowly raised his hand.

Wayne watched the unfolding scene, his eyes radiating a sense of assured victory. Things were progressing smoother than he had anticipated.

Those who hadn't raised their hands looked on anxiously, their intense glares sending silent warnings to the portly man. Despite their silent threats, he chose to align himself with Wayne.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

He reasoned that Alexander wouldn't be showing up. Why create unnecessary animosity? Just as the man's hand went up, the conference room door swung open abruptly.Every head turned in unison. There, in the doorway, stood Alexander, dressed in a sharp black suit, his posture rigid. His indifferent gaze and frosty countenance swept over the room, causing the attendees to freeze, too intimidated to breathe.He strode into the room, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth."I see the vote is underway before I've even arrived. Are we electing a new deputy CEO or what?"

He approached the head of the table at a leisurely pace, not bothering to take a seat. Instead, he kicked the chair aside, leaned forward with his hands bracing the table's edge, and looked down imperiously at the assembled group.
