Emily was not the only one devastated and humiliated beyond belief. Even Freya and Hannah''s faces were burning hot with embarrassment. Today, all three had been shamed in the most spectacr way possible.


    At this moment, George finally spoke up, "Emily, all three of you sit down now! I gave you the opportunity, but as you can see, you couldn''t seize it!"


    Emily was unwilling to ept defeat but feltpletely helpless, so she could only sit there with red-rimmed eyes, silently fuming. Duncan sensed his moment had arrived and stood up leisurely, adjusting his suit cor with practiced confidence.


    Heughed and said, "Mr. Keller Senior, I will certainly continue your bold and fearless leadership style in the chairman position! I also thank everyone here for your generous support!"


    A series of apuse erupted from below, alling from Duncan''s supporters who were celebrating their anticipated win.


    When the apuse died down slightly, George chuckled softly, "Duncan, you''re being a bit too hasty there!"


    Duncan was stunned. "Mr. Keller Senior, what do you mean by that?"


    George replied nonchntly, "Nothing much, I just wanted to remind you and all your supporters of something. I''m still the Chamber of Commerce chairman right now, and I haven''t used my nomination rights yet!"


    Duncan''s face immediately changed color as panic set in. "But Mr. Keller Senior, didn''t you just nominate Ms. Emily?"


    George waved his hand dismissively, "I never nominated that girl-she''s not that capable, and she was just ying around! Besides, everyone saw that she took it upon herself toe forward and make a fool of herself!"


    Duncan''s expression instantly turned dark as storm clouds, and he spoke through gritted teeth, "Then may I ask who you''re nominating, Mr. Keller Senior?"


    George smiled and slowly raised his hand, pointing toward the corner of the room. Everyone immediately looked in that direction, their faces showing expressions of confusion, anger, disbelief, or outright contempt.


    "Dad, you still want Andrew to take over? If I can''t do it, he most definitely can''t! Nominating him is just tarnishing your reputation and the Ketter family name!" Emily''s voice exploded with fury and disdain.


    Immediately, Freya and Hannah chimed in with their own objections. If Emily had been treated like a joke, Andrew would have fared even worse.


    The Chamber of Commerce members probably would not even bother to give him a proper look.


    Duncan burst intoughter, "Mr. Keller Senior, you''re not seriously nominating Andrew, are you?"


    George remainedpletely unfazed, "That''s right, it''s Andy. Do you find this funny?"


    Duncan''sughter stopped abruptly, and his face took on a theatrical expression of mock seriousness,


    "Not funny at all-absolutely not


    funny just find it absurd that Some nobody who knows a bit of medical tricks wants to be our chairman!"


    Heughed again, saying, "This is the most ridiculous thing I''ve ever heard! Let him treat patients and e save lives-maybe he''s good at that. But forgive my bluntness, managing the Chamber of Commerce and leading so many elite figures within our Gabo Creek Chamberof Commerce?


    "This kid is too green, way too inexperienced! What does everyone else think?" Following his lead, most people immediately began echoing his sentiments.


    "That''s right, Ms. Emily at least had some qualifications topete, but Andrew? Who does he think he is?"


    "Everyone here controls real money and power; he''s just some young doctor, aplete nobody!"


    "Mr. Keller Senior, your joke is really hrious! I''mughing so hard I''m crying!"
