George hissed, “Your pride should come from your abilities and your intelligence, not from riding on the family name or my name, walking around with your noses in the air!”
He slammed his hand on the desk, making everyone jump. “Right now, I’m still alive and can keep things in line, but someday, I’ll be gone! And when that day comes, if you’re still acting like spoiled brats who think you’re better than everyone else, then all three of you are going to crash and burn!”
The Keller sisters fell silent instantly, but their faces were red with indignation, clearly showing how furious they were. They could not understand why their father would say such harsh things out of nowhere.
Did he really favor Andrew that much?
Was he really so eager to hand over his three daughters to some outsider?
Emily’s jaw tightened as she argued defiantly, “Dad, maybe you’re right, maybe we’re blind! But there’s one thing I refuse to accept!”
George’s stern face remained unmoved as he let the butler adjust his suit buttons. Only then did he speak in a cold, measured tone, “I know exactly what you can’t accept. You think I’m crazy for wanting to pass the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce chairmanship to an outsider, right?”
Emily gritted her teeth, “Exactly! Please tell me why you won’t pass it to Logan or to me, your own daughter. Why would you choose to give it to someone outside the Keller family? It’s not fair!”
Freya and Hannah immediately chimed in, “Dad, this isn’t fair! The Chamber of Commerce chairmanship is crucial–it controls hundreds of elite families and major corporations! This is the Keller family’s power and wealth! If you’re going to pass it down, it should go to one of us Kellers!”
As they spoke, all three sisters‘ eyes began to well up with tears, looking utterly heartbroken.
George asked just one simple question, “If I give it to you, can you actually handle it?”
Hannah and Freya were struck speechless. One of them was chasing her dreams in the entertainment industry, focused on her art. Meanwhile, the other spent her time partying and bar–hopping, living for nothing but pleasure.
Deep down, they both knew they could not handle such responsibility. However, Emily was different–she went to Meurico and graduated from Regalton University with a business doctorate and amazing business instincts.
Sure, she had lost over a billion dollars before, but that was only because her ambitions had been too big. Wher. business acumen, she was absolutely top–tier.
ame to actual
Emily stood up straighter, confidence radiating from her voice. “Dad, for the Chamber of Commerce chairmanship, I’ve decided to return to the family business! This time, I’ll show you everything I’m capable of!
“Logan can take over your other responsibilities, but you can safely entrust the chairmanship position to me!”
George’s expression remained blank, “Fine then. The board meeting is waiting for me to start. You can all come along, and I’ll propose making Emily the chairman right there and then!
“But whether you can actually hold onto it depends entirely on you As long yourself, I have absolutely no objections!“.
as you can win everyone’s respect and prove
Emily clenched her fist, her voice cold and proud. “I don’t know if can hold onto it or not, but I’m definitely more qualified and capable than Andrew!”
Freya and Hannah nodded enthusiastically, “Absolutely! Emily is way better than that Andrew guy!”
George sighed quietly to himself. His daughters were spoiled, sheltered, and completely naive. Compared to Andrew, he honestly could not find a single area where they measured up.
