Chapter 85

The Hollis family has been silent for several days since Lorraine Hill visited us that day. Miss Mello ordered that the whole headquarters of the chamber of commerce be completely closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.

A few days later, the door of the headquarters of Hollis chamber of Commerce opened, which seemed to be the same as usual in the eyes of outsiders. However, some of its internal staff found that some faces had disappeared, and they were said to have been assigned to work in distant branches.

Later, the main managers of the various branches of the Hollis chamber of Commerce, especially Meru's uncles and relatives, received an invitation from the master. The invitation said that because the master of the HOS family had been enjoying too much recently, the Minister of the angel temple said that he was afraid that his life would soon be over, so he invited everyone to discuss the succession of the chamber of Commerce.

If it's a normal meeting, the relatives of Hollis don't like to go, and they don't show up much. But when it comes to the transfer of the chamber of Commerce and the distribution of property, they come in swarming like flies smelling fishy smell, for fear that they won't be able to drink soup late.

In this way, in a short period of one week, these distant relatives arrived one after another and gathered together.

The Hollis, main chamber.

Hos sat at the head of the hall, a little pale, puffy body like a ball of soft white bread, next to the maid from time to time to bring health medicine soup, on his right side sat his eldest daughter Meru, next to his youngest son bell.

Among the many stewards under the stage, all kinds of eyes look at the middle of the house owner, including envy, jealousy, fear, greed and desire. All kinds of eyes look at the members of the house. Now that the meeting has not started, they are whispering underground, trying to find out what they are paying attention to.

Mei Lu looked at the group of people below. Her face was so familiar, but so strange. When did it start? Everyone came to this step. There was no warmth in the past, only the greed for money. It seemed that this was the only value and significance of life.

Maybe this is the normal. People's minds are changeable, and only interests are long-term, moving and unable to extricate themselves. She sighed silently in her heart, and then a slight tug came from her arm.

"Belle? Well, don't be afraid. Just sit there and your sister will protect you."

Meru took her brother's hand to calm him down, and the meeting finally officially began.

The host clapped his hands first to make everyone calm down. He briefly introduced the reason for calling everyone together this time. As the owner of the family, HOS, was not well, he decided to abdicate.

"I'm sorry to call you at this time." Hos began to say that his speed was not fast and his voice was weak.

"Your health is the most important thing when you are worried about it."

"Yes, don't worry too much. We are here."

"Yes, you can rest assured."

Some stewards responded below that although they were all concerned, their excited eyes didn't look like they cared about HOS. I'm afraid they were more just secretly pleased. HOS was the son of the previous generation of family owners after all. Although he was not strong enough, his seniority could hold them down. But once he quits, who can he change?

Bell is not yet an adult, only 14 years old, no one cares about him, although the eldest daughter Meru has certain strength, but she is a daughter, sooner or later to get married, outsiders, what qualifications to manage the family? At that time, we still have to entrust them to handle the business of the chamber of Commerce, ha ha ha.

"So I'm going to leave the business of the chamber of Commerce to my daughter, Meru, who will handle it."

When HOS said this, there was an uproar below, and he showed his unbelievable expression one after another. Suddenly, his friendly face became ugly, and all kinds of doubts rang out.

"Think twice, master. Meilu is just a little girl. It's too much for her to be in charge."

"Yes, why give the chamber of Commerce to a daughter."

"Chambers of commerce should be led by experienced people"

"I think Lord Vito is right."

....

The voices below suddenly became noisy, and many people began to make noise. They expressed their opinions one after another, saying the most suitable leader in their mind, and some simply recommended themselves. Hos sweated on his head and said a few more words, but no one listened. They just vented their discontent and argued about who was qualified to lead the chamber of Commerce.

Meru stood up, patted her father on the back and said a few words in his ear. HOS's anxious face slowly eased down. Then several guards escorted him and bell away from the nearby side door. Under the cover of the noise in the assembly hall, the sound of armor collision outside the door seemed so inconspicuous.

Some people notice HOS's departure and are ready to come forward for questioning, but they are stopped by the prepared attendants. They seem to be standing in front of the stage sparsely, but they are strict with those who want to come forward.

Dong——

Dong——

The big bell in the conference hall was rung, and the metal tremor of the bronze bell was clearly spread throughout the conference hall. At this time, the scene gradually quieted down. When you saw that Meilu was alone on the rostrum, you finally felt something wrong.

"Miss Mello, where's Lord Hoth?"

Several steward began to ask, others also looked at Mei Lu, waiting for her answer.

"My father is not feeling well. He has gone back to have a rest. The rest is up to me."

"Meru, you come down from the stage. HOS is not sensible. How can you let a girl take such a heavy responsibility?"

An uncle said loudly that some other people began to agree with him, and more people just looked on coldly.

Mei Lu slowly stood up from her seat. She was wearing a dark green dress, with a bright yellow camellia pinned on her shoulder. Her face was not clear in the slightly dim meeting hall, but her long chestnut golden hair was on her chest.

"Uncle Vito doesn't think I'm fit, either?" Her voice was a little chilly.

"Yes."

"But I still want to do it. What can I do?"

"Don't look like that. We're doing it for you, too."

"But I do."

Looking at the familiar uncle in front of her, Mei Lu's voice became colder and colder and more determined.

"You..."

Before the uncle finished speaking, Meilu directly picked up the tea cup on the table and hit each other.

"You're just a member of the Hollis family. You have no right to yell in front of me."

"When I call you uncle, do you forget your duty“

Everyone looked at Meilu in shock. No one expected that Meilu, who is usually docile and amiable, would dare to say such words.

"From today on, the Hollis family will be unified again. Everyone and all the branches must obey our master's orders!"

"And I will be the new owner of the Hollis chamber of Commerce. If you have any complaints, you can tell them here."

Mei Lu looked directly at all the relatives and elders. Her black eyes slowly swept through the hall. As her words fell, a group of armed guards came through the side door. They were silent. They could only hear the sound of metal collision. Three hundred steel guards blocked the hall completely, No one can escape from this silent hall.
