Chapter 1375


    Although angry, he calmed down and said, “At today’s board meeting, I n to select for the next


    Chairman! Everyone here knows, in recent years, the Harper Group has been managed by my


    eldest grandson, with remarkable achievements! So, the Chairman candidate I’m most optimistic


    about is naturally him! I believe that handing thepany to him is the right decision! However, I


    want him to agree to one condition, that is to marry the daughter of the Alonso family! They grew up


    together from a young age, with a solid emotional foundation. Whether it’s family background,


    personal rtionships, or even for the long–term development of thepany, I believe, their union


    would only benefit us, there’s no downside, and this is the right choice.”


    When these words were said, no one was surprised. Some shareholders shook their heads and


    sighed, showing helplessness. Presley’s thoughts were not a secret


    anymore.


    Ignoring the reactions in the meeting room, Presley turned his head to Damon and said, “Damon, I


    give you the choice, this Chairman’s position, do you ept it?”


    As soon as he finished speaking, other shareholders hurriedly said, “Chairman, business is


    business. How can you use a marriage as a bargaining chip? How can these two matters be mixed


    up?”


    “Yes, and it’s well–known that Damon is currently with Ms. Summers, isn’t this forcing him?”


    However, there were also shareholders who said, “But what Presley said is not wrong. Wendy and


    Damon are childhood friends, and there is an emotional foundation. We know her character and


    behavior!”


    “Yes, from the perspective of interests, the chairman has made it clear, and Wendy’s position is also


    very obvious! The Alonso family is thriving now, and their alliance with the Harper family is


    undoubtedly a case of mutual reinforcement!”


    Wendy nervously clenched her hands, staring at the man next to her.


    Damon’s face was expressionless, his eyes deep, filled with intense emotions.”


    Everyone hoped that he would make the right choice at the critical moment. But he, the real


    protagonist, seemed to be standing aside, showing no interest in the topic at hand.


    “Damon!” The old man called out in a deep voice, frowning at him, “You must understand that, as a


    leader, you should prioritize the overall interest.”


    Damon’s brow twitched; he looked down at Chloe’s hand in his..


    “No one can influence my decision. Nobody.” He said calmly, causing Wendy and Presley’s


    expressions to immediately change, “If marrying Wendy is your so–called big picture, then I’m sorry,


    I am not your ideal leader. I can’t sacrifice personal interests for the big picture!”


    He finished, tightly gripped Chloe’s hand, and then stood up.


    “As for the Chairman’s position, I’m afraid I won’t be taking it. The Harper Group is a legacy built by


    our ancestors, so I naturally have no say in front of you. The Harper Group is now yours. You can


    hand it over to whoever you want!” Damon said.


    His tone was very calm, enough to make people unsettled. As if in his eyes, this Chairman’s


    position was like a limited edition car model. It would be nice to have it, but losing it wouldn’t be a


    big deal.


    Chloe beside him gave a slight smile, although the current situation didn’t allow her to be happy,


    she couldn’t help but feel joy in her heart. Yasmine across from them saw every expressions on


    Chloe’s face, smiling slightly.


    Damon finished speaking, he pulled out the chair behind Chloe, took her hand, and left his seat.


    After taking a few steps, Damon suddenly stopped, looked at Presley and said, “I don’t want the


    Chairman’s position, and maybe the Harper family won’t have space for me soon. Since things


    havee to this, I can also resign from my current position. Just in time for this board meeting, I


    dere, from today, I will voluntarily step down from the position of CEO of the Harper Group. From


    now on, all matters of the Harper Group have nothing to do with me.”


    As soon as these words came out, the whole meeting room erupted.


    “Why are you doing this!”


    “Please reconsider. Don’t be impulsive!”


    “This decision can’t be made hastily. You mustn’t act rashly!”


    They could ept Damon not being the Chairman, but they couldn’t ept him not being the


    President!


    There were many old employees in thepany who hade a long way; the Harper Group’s


    development under Damon’s hands was better than any previous leader.


    What was more, he currently had a project in preparation. If it could proceed smoothly, the benefits


    would be incalcble.


    If the Harper Group and PrimeVision’s cooperation could be achieved, the Harpers would greatly


    surpass the Alonsos.


    They originally thought this cooperation would be achieved before the scheduled board meeting, but


    they didn’t expect, Presley would suddenly bring forward the meeting.


    “Damon!” Nathan also immediately stood up from his seat, his usually carefree face now bing


    serious.

    Damon calmly said, “I’ve thought it through.” After saying that, he took Chloe’s hand, ready to leave


    the meeting room.


    Presley’s face had gone through a drastic change, holding back his fiery anger. But when he saw


    Damon give up all decision–making power in the Harper family without leaving any room for


    negotiation, his rage exploded. When Damon prepared to leave, Presley stood up sharply, ring


    at his grandson who he had always been so proud of. His vision went blurry, and his body, leaning


    on his cane, shook violently. “Damon! You’re really giving up the Harper Group for a woman,


    you…”


    “Isn’t it you forcing him to give up the Harper family for a woman?” Chloe’s icy voice suddenly filled


    the air.


    Presley’s gaze instantly shifted to her, “Do you even have the right to speak here? Seeing Damon


    disobey me again and again because of you, even giving up the Harper Group’s inheritance rights,


    are you smug about it and happy?”


    The meeting room fell into silence again at Presley’s roar.


    Chloe ignored Presley’s rage, a faint smile on her face, “Do I even need to say it? Of course, I’m


    happy.” Why wouldn’t she be happy when Damon regarded her so importantly?


    Presley was fuming with anger at Chloe’s attitude, “You’re a real curse! Damon gave up so much


    for you, what can you do for him? Do you deserve him? What right


    do you have to stand by his side? Why on earth…”


    “Because he loves me.” Chloe said calmly, these four words cut off all Presley’s reproaches.
