Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 744

Chapter 744 The Choice of Successor

When Jackson returned to the ballroom, Merrick was already on the stage. However, seeing Lilian’s face still sent a chill down his spine.

Standing on the stage, Merrick looked at the crowd and said with a smile, “Today, I’d like to thank you all for attending the Philips Corp anniversary gala. Philips Corp’s development to this day is thanks to your vigorous support over the years. Therefore, I will start by toasting you all.” He finished his drink, and the audience immediately erupted in warm applause.

Merrick pressed his palm down to quiet the crowd. “Secondly, I would like to take advantage of this gala to announce something to everyone here today: the choice for the next successor of Philips Corp.”

Merrick’s words caused a collective shock among the audience.

“Why would Dad announce this at this particular time?” Houis asked Linette beside him.

Linette also looked bewildered. “I hadn’t heard anything.”

Not far away, Jackson’s eyes were filled with anticipation and nervousness. He had waited for this moment for too long. He thought he would have to go to great lengths to secure this position, yet he never expected to obtain it so easily.

Madison, standing beside him, was also full of excitement, as if success was finally within reach.

Merrick looked at the surprised expressions of the crowd and continued, “This decision was made after

no

deep consideration. My health has been deteriorating these past few years, and longer have the

energy to manage the company’s affairs. Therefore, Philips Corp needs a new leader. Next, my lawyer will announce the result.”

A sharp businessman was then seen walking out, carrying a safe deposit box.

Steve walked onto the stage, greeted Merrick, entered a code to open the safe deposit box, and took out a document. He announced, “According to Chairman An’s decision, the successor of Philips Corp is Miss Lilian.”

This result, it must be said, shocked everyone in the audience.

Jackson’s expression shifted from one of joyous anticipation, slowly turning to surprise, and then to disbelief.

Houis and his wife were also completely stunned, and Madison’s expression was positively grotesque.

Almost everyone’s gaze turned to the girl in the audience.

In fact, the result also greatly surprised Lilian.

Unlock succeeded

written there, he yelled, This isn’t real! This isn’t real! This document must be fake!
