You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 336

He walked straight up to Joyce and tapped his middle finger on the desk in front of her.

"Get up and take the seat next to me." His tone was a bit unfriendly.

Joyce looked up lazily from her paperwork and glanced at him, "No, I feel good sitting here."

Knowing her stubborn nature, Luther did not force her.

He walked to the main seat of the conference table and sat down.

The board meeting officially began.

The only issue discussed at today's interim board meeting was a floor vote on whether to allow Joyce, who inherited 10% of the shares from Stephanie, to join the board with voting rights.

Casey presided over the entire meeting, and he began by reading, "With respect to this floor vote, we have just received online votes from overseas shareholders. They will be counted together in the total number of votes later."

All the directors there, as well as Luther himself, they were clear that the so-called overseas shareholders referred to the other branch of the Warner family, which was from Luther's grandfather's brother. And they did not even have to think to know they must have voted against Joyce.

Over the years, almost for all the important decisions, they voted against Luther.

Not to mention the fact that this time it involved the shares left behind by Stephanie.

For years, they had been overseas, but they had been expecting a reduction of 10% of the voting rights on Luther's side, which would bring them a step closer to the center of power in the R&S Group.

After Luther inherited another 10% from Stephanie, his stake rose to 25%, while the shares owned by the overseas branch totaled 20% and the 10% owned by Joyce could not be counted in the current round of voting.

In other words, for Joyce to successfully enter the board, she would need the support from more than half of the directors present.

No need to introduce the background for the voting, they had all known it by heart, and the voting was officially started.

Casey set up the ballot box and read out the voting rules.

The vote was conducted anonymously, and each person was issued a voting paper. The directors could check the boxes on the paper for yes or no. Finally, the votes were counted.
