Chapter 136
The audience started clapping as soon as the emcee finished speaking.
All the bosses and big shots stared at the door in anticipation, wondering who the new director of the Electronics Technology Association would be. This person would be the one guiding the industry of electronics technology for the next four years.
The spotlight shone on a figure walking through the door clad in a black power suit with her hair tied up in a high bun.
a professional-looking woman
“What?!” Elijah exclaimed in disbelief. He was the first person to respond, Rubbing his eyes, he added, “Is there a problem with my eyes? Because I think that’s Mrs. Hunt!!
Stefan frowned slightly. He stared at Renee’s graceful figure, completely caught off guard.
Renee walked up to the podium with her head held high, her eyes scanning the audience below. She then introduced herself, “Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Renee Everheart, and I
am the new director of the Electronics Technology Association.”
Renee used to either dress casually or glamorously, but today, she was dressed professionally in a power suit, paired with silver-rimmed glasses, which lent her an air of smart competence.
Her narrow pencil skirt hugged her shapely hips, and her light colored silk stockings emphasized her long and slender legs, adding a touch of alluring charm to her slick
appearance. Needless to say, the eyes of all the men in the audience were instantly glued to her
as soon as she appeared.
Nevertheless, although her appearance was impeccable, the people who participated in the summit forum were all top dogs in their fields. There was no way that they would allow an unqualified woman to take up the important position of director of the association! And so, after getting over their momentary awe over her looks, they all started grumbling in dissatisfaction.
“Isn’t that President Hunt’s ex-wife? Is she so distraught from getting dumped that she wandered into the wrong room?”
“Are the standards for the director of the Electronics Technology Association so low nowadays that they just pluck a random person off the streets to take up the position? They’re clearly messing with us!”
The emcee was beginning to feel disconcerted as they faced a tide of mockery and cynicism in the room.
Although he was only a few feet away from the stage where she stood, he could not help but
feel as if the distance between Renee and himself had stretched out into a distance as vast as
the impassable sea….
Renee received a thunderous applause at the end of her speech. This signified that her position as the new director of the association had been accepted without question.
Meanwhile, Jake Hunt stood at the exit, right at the very edge of the venue. He leaned his tall figure against the wall lazily. His dashingly flawless face, which resembled Stefan’s, was partially hidden under the mask, but beneath it, a wry smile had cropped up.
It was clear that he had made the perfect choice. This woman was even more of a hidden gem than he expected her to be. What a huge loss for Stefan, to have let her slip through his fingers so easily!
