Chapter 1530
Jovan’s words struck Stefan speechless. Stefan had only learned much later that it was all because of Jovan’s eyes and blood that he had survived. Technically, he owed Jovan his life, so he couldn’t argue with him about this.
“If that’s the case, we can experiment with your plan in the next season, Jovan. Well see the effects after the expansion, ” Stefan sounded regal and dignified as he spoke and all the shareholders present listened to him attentively and dared not object.
“You’re insightful, Stefan, and it seems like you truly care for the company… but there’s something I’m curious about.
What’s your next step if the profits of the company do skyrocket after the next season?” Jovan faked a smile as he asked Stefan slyly.
“What do you want me to do?” Stefan boldly met Jovan’s gaze, staring him down. The atmosphere became tense.
After a while, Shane said, “Mr. Stefan, we all know you’re a generous man. If Mr. Jovan can help the company prosper, I’m sure you’d be willing to give your position to him, right?”
Jimmy smacked the table and pointed at Shane, scolding him angrily, “Shane, you’re being rude! Only a man with both integrity and talent has the right to be the president, and nobody is more suited for it than Mr. Stefan Hunt.”
“What’s the use of integrity when it comes to making profit?
All the shareholders care about are profits. We’ll support whoever wants to be president as long as he or she can help us earn money…”
The two of them started arguing with each other fiercely.
At last, Stefan waved and said coolly, “I agree with Mr.
Webb’s idea. If Jovan can make the company successful after a season, I’m willing to resign.”
Stefan’s words surprised everyone, including Jovan. He had been fully prepared to fight Stefan for the position, but unexpectedly, Stefan had given in quickly.
The long shareholder meeting finally ended when it was nearing time to clock out of work. The shareholders left the room one by one, and soon, only Stefan and Jovan were left in the large conference room.
Jovan immediately abandoned all pretense and hissed at Stefan, “What are you hiding? It’s unlike you to give up the position of president so easily.”
Stefan just raised an eyebrow. “Show me your capability if you want this post so much. If you can, I’ll let you have it.”
“There’s no way you’d admit defeat that easily! Use whatever tricks you want—you know the consequences you’ll face if I become president.” Jovan approached Stefan menacingly, studying his expression for weaknesses.
“You’re overthinking. I’ve long wanted to retire, so I’d be happy if you took the position from me. After all, I have something more important now, and I’m sick of all this superficial fame and power.”
Jovan narrowed his eyes. “What’s so important to you?”
