?Chapter 690:


    Outside, Sansa met Sheppard and Wesson and eagerly said, “Hurry,e with me to meet the new president.”


    Sheppard and Wesson were confused. “What new president?”


    Sansa briefly updated them on rissa stepping down and informed them about the new president and acting president currently in the conference room.


    Finally, she concluded, “Despite the change in leadership, the new president dislikes Tiffany too, and not only has she kept us around, but she has also epted our rmendation to involve you two.


    This means our situation remains unchanged, and the new president is more open and generous than rissa, so we stand to gain even more now.”


    Upon hearing this, Sheppard and Wesson were visibly delighted. They adjusted their attire and followed Sansa into the conference room.


    Once they understood that the new president was more forgiving and didn’t hold their past actions against them, Sheppard and Wesson were relieved. However, seeing Marissa’s stern expression as they entered, they involuntarily tensed up.


    They took a moment topose themselves, then bowed respectfully and said, “Ms. President.”

    Marissa observed them with a faint smile, her eyes growing colder. “What are your reasons for wanting to join the Peridot Consortium?”


    Sheppard quickly stepped forward, eager to impress the new president first. “Ms. President, we aim to support your efforts against the Sanchez and Nash families and to help take down that woman, Tiffany!”


    Not wanting to be outdone, Wesson added quickly, “Yes, we share amon enemy, Tiffany. We stand with you. If granted the privilege of joining the Peridot Consortium, we will serve you faithfully.”


    As Sansa watched Sheppard’s and Wesson’s eager attempts to curry favor, her face lit up with satisfaction.


    If they secured the new president’s favor, she and A would be hailed as significant contributors to the Peridot Consortium, securing substantial benefits for the future.


    A shared these thoughts and couldn’t help but wear a self-satisfied grin.


    But before they could savor their triumph, Marissa’s hand mmed hard on the table.


    “Smack!”


    The sound echoed sharply, causing everyone to be startled.


    The president’s demeanor shifted instantly from rxed to imposing.


    “How dare you!” Marissa dered, her face stern.


    “How dare youe into my Peridot Consortium and spout such nonsense? I hold no ill will towards the Sanchez or Nash families. Why would I seek their downfall? And I do not hate Tiffany. Why would I wish her harm?


    You bear personal grudges against Tiffany and seek to use me to settle scores. Do you think the Peridot Consortium is a tool for your vendettas, or do you take me for a fool?”
