The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 182

Jared walked next to Nicole.

Walking towards the seat normally reserved for Kerr, Nicole sat down calmly with an unperturbed grace.

The board members looked at each other quizzically.

Sitting in the corner, Moore kept an impassive face.

"You said that you are in possession of Mr. Gu's authorization? What evidence do you have? How can you claim a place here?" Mr. Liang looked at Nicole and thought that she was too young and that she could only be where she was today because she must have seduced Kerr.

Hearing Mr. Liang's questions, Nicole did not get angry and smiled faintly instead. "Your words are not objective. I think everyone here has the same question. So, I'll explain it to you all."

Nicole's eyes swept over everyone present and finally settled on Moore. "Kerr has very important things to do at the moment, and these will soon bring new benefits to the Gu Group. So, during Kerr's period of absence,

I will temporarily be the CEO of the Gu Group. Here is the authorization letter." Nicole took out the letter of authorization from her bag and laid it on the table in the meeting room.

"There's no need for evidence. I believe your claims, Miss Ning. My brother is quite likely to place the whole Gu Group in your hands. You have really won his heart, Miss Ning."

On the surface, Moore seemed to be siding with Nicole and Kerr, but his words implied that he had doubts about what kind of person Nicole was and what her motives were.

Looking at Moore's face, Nicole was not surprised as she had been well prepared. "You are correct. I believe that everyone here knows Kerr well enough. So we should have faith in his abilities and insights.

Although I don't have much experience in business matters, I have been thoroughly guided by Kerr. By the way, I haven't given much attention to the project that Director Gu has secured for the Gu Group. How's it going?"

Nicole knew that everyone present paid no attention to her, but these so-called board members had never been involved in the real running of the Gu Group.

Only when they ended up in trouble did they come to Kerr, claiming that he should be responsible for it. But they forgot that it was because of Kerr's skills that they were able to live in the lap of luxury. Thinking of this, Nicole felt a bitter taste of disappointment.

But no matter what happened, Nicole remained determined to be with Kerr.

Upon hearing her question, the smile gradually slipped off from Moore's face. He realized then that Nicole was not as simple minded as she appeared. If Kerr dared to entrust such a big responsibility to her, she must have the skills to deal with it.

"You are right, Miss Ning. I have to be careful with such a large scale project. My brother has been away from the Gu Group for a while, and so he probably doesn't know. So far, this project is the only one that has run according to plan without any hiccups. However,

if my brother doesn't return soon, there might be some trouble." Moore had caused many stirrings in the projects that had been placed in Kerr's care.

Seeing the triumphant look on Moore's face, Nicole didn't panic at all. She calmly regarded everyone present and said, "Since Kerr asked me to take his place, it means that he is very confident in me.

Although you don't believe in me, you should trust in Kerr's judgment. After all, over the past few years, a number of people didn't believe in Kerr's judgment, but each time, Kerr was proven right.

Three years ago, nobody showed any interest in the land in the north of the city. No one even bid on the low tenders from the government, but Kerr got it at a rock bottom price and, in just two years, that land has become the most famous business property in the city.

Two years ago, an island in L City had been abandoned because of the severe pollution. But after it was bought and developed by Kerr, it has become a well-known resort."

Before coming to the Gu Group, Nicole had developed a thorough understanding of its development over the past five years. She couldn't help admiring Kerr's strategies, because he had been right all along. He had a unique style.

"I believe you all know it better than I do. After all, these projects raked in billions for you all. Now Kerr needs some time to develop still larger projects. His efforts won't disappoint you."
