The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 298 - 295

’That’s not it!"

Joanna denied it coldly. "That’s just my moral principle. It has nothing to do with him."

The press conference continued under the supervision of the staff.

A representative from the Moran Group’s PR Department showcased to the media the company’s ongoing projects, financial power, and organizational structure.

Finally, the PR representative enthusiastically told the media, "The Moran Group is about to embark on a new journey. Let’s welcome Mr. Jovan Moran, the new CEO jointly selected by the board of directors and the major shareholders of Moran Group, to give us a speech."

The venue suddenly erupted with enthusiastic applause. The atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than when Ace held a press conference in the past. It was heartbreaking to watch.

Jovan talked eloquently in front of the media.

’The Moran Group is currently facing an unprecedented crisis. For the future of the Moran Group and the entire the City, I took on the responsibility of CEO at the company’s darkest hour..."

Suddenly, Ethan stood up, looked directly into Jovan’s eyes, and challenged him. "Isn’t the CEO of Moran Group Ace Moran? Under his lead, the Moran Group thrives every year. How can you just take over? Did he agree to this?’

Jovan smiled and said, "Master Stuart has hit on a key point. I’ll take this chance to explain to everyone in detail."

"First of all, I took over the position of Moran Group’s CEO after a vote by the board of directors and all the shareholders. Among the six members of the board of directors, three voted in favor, one abstained, and two voted in opposition. More than half the shareholders were in favor of the decision made by the board of directors. Therefore, my appointment as CEO is something the majority of the company wanted."

"Hah, that’s hilarious!"

Ethan rebutted, "If I remember correctly, Ace Moran himself is the Moran Group’s largest shareholder. If what you said is true, did Ace vote against himself or something?’

"Very good, Master Stuart. You’ve asked the key question again, which I believe is also the issue that the media are the most concerned with. Why would my cousin, Ace Moran, vote against himself?"

Jovan paused, causing everyone to hold their breath.

Strictly speaking, the matter was no longer a secret. Rumors had been circulating outside for a while now, but everyone was still waiting for the official statement from the Moran Group.

Only after the official statement was made could the official media report on it.

My cousin Ace has always been outstanding. Some even see him as an omnipotent god. However, he’s just a human after all, and not a god..."

Jovan said in a somber voice, "I believe all of you have heard rumors of Ace’s death recently. Today, on behalf of the Moran Group, I regret to inform you that Ace Moran has encountered an accident during his recent business trip and has passed away."

The cameras flashed incessantly. The press conference had reached its climax.

At that moment, a voice sounded out that caused the entire place to go crazy.

"Who says I’m dead?"

Everyone looked towards the direction the sound came from, including Joanna.

She saw Ace’s tall figure casually walking into the venue like a deity.

Originally, Jovan was the center of attention, but as soon as Ace appeared, he immediately became the side character, like a piece of glass compared to Ace’s diamond.

The place exploded. The atmosphere, which had reached a climax before this, became even more intense. The sounds of shutters and flashes were deafening.

"N-No way! Ace Moran?! But you’re already..."

Jovan went pale, like he had just seen a ghost. He slumped down in his chair, devoid of his earlier energy and enthusiasm.

Ace’s gaze at Jovan was as cold and sharp as a dagger. He said, "You seem disappointed, Vice- CEO Moran."

The senior executives and shareholders sitting to the sides showed various reactions. Some were happy while some were not.

Those who supported Jovan had their backs pressed against their seats. They sweated profusely and found it hard to breathe. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Meanwhile, those who defended Ace even after his death were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes.

"Mr. Moran, we knew you’d be alright. Unfortunately, some people were simply too impatient. The moment they heard about your accident, they couldn’t wait to put a useless person in charge. It’s obvious what they’re plotting."

Ace smiled and said, "We’re all adults; we all have the right to make our own choices. However, if we make the wrong choice, we have to bear the consequences... Am I right, Uncle Barry?"

Barry’s face was unsightly. The cold sweat on his forehead kept dripping down along his gray hair, wetting his shirt.

From the moment Ace "came back from the dead", he knew that he was powerless to turn the tables in this game of chess. He had lost completely.

’That’s right, if we’re willing to gamble, we must be willing to pay the price. Do what you will!"

Barry’s face turned as pale as ash. He completely gave up.

Jovan was still sitting in the CEO’s seat. He glared at Ace with fierce hatred in his eyes and said through gritted teeth, "Incredible, simply incredible. Like a phoenix reborn! It’s my loss."

The grin on Ace’s cold, handsome face was full of mockery and disdain." My tactics are actually very conventional. It’s you and those fish behind you that were too hungry. The moment you saw the bait, you jumped on it without hesitation, giving me the opportunity to catch all of you in one fell swoop."

Alexander urged Ace, "Ace, there’s no need to waste time talking to these traitors. We’ve already collected evidence of their illegal activities. Just ask the security guards to turn them over to the police."

’The Moran Group managed to remove all the tumors in one go thanks to your ingenious plan. I know it’s been hard on you. As expected of my son. I’m proud of you, and the entire Moran Group is proud of you."

Alexander was very excited. He patted Ace’s shoulder proudly.

After that, several security guards came and took Barry Brown and the others away, leaving only Jovan behind.

Jovan could assess the situation. He offered his seat to Ace, turned to the crowd, and said, "Let us welcome the miraculous return of Ace, the CEO of Moran Group. As the Vice CEO of Moran Group, I can finally relax. After all, the higher the position, the more work there is. I’d rather be a useless person and let my excellent cousin Ace do all the work."

Ace sat down like a king. His gaze swept across the entire venue. He said calmly, "I’m sorry to make everyone worry. I went abroad for a while to heal up from a physical condition, but that actually gave some villains the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. However, everything’s fine now. After this major purging, the Moran Group will usher in a new era. I will continue to serve as the CEO of Moran Group, leading the company to new heights..."
