Chapter 459 Incompetent Chairman
But even if he was the chairman, no one was really afraid of him.
He was just there to fill in the numbers. He wasn’t very capable, and ever since he took the lead of the
company, there had been a declining trend. If he wasn’t replaced soon, Benett Corporation was going to
go down the drain sooner or later.
Many people were eager for Elisa to be promoted.
After all, Elisa was the old chairman’s daughter! She was as shrewd and capable as he was!
James was in a great mood. He immediately said, “Ms. Benett is currently suspended. I don’t understand
why she’s still working for the company. Didn’t she think of how she might have messed things up like
she has now?”
Norman was speechless.

to her about not interfering in the company’s affairs while she’s suspended.”
James smiled. “I’m relieved to hear that because Ms. Benett definitely wouldn’t be so reckless.
Otherwise, it would make you seem incompetent, Mr. Benett.”
Calvin immediately looked at James angrily. “Watch how you speak, James.”
James had a confused expression. “Why? What’s wrong with what I said?”
He looked at Jessie as he said it.
She restrained her laughter and shook her head. “Of course there’s nothing wrong with it. As a chairman,
Mr. Benett needs everyone’s confidence. If he can’t even manage his own daughter well, wouldn’t he be
incompetent? That’s why I believe in Mr. Benett’s abilities. As for you, Mr. Hall.”
Jessie slowly let her gaze sweep onto Calvin as she enunciated each and every word. “Why are you so
angry? Don’t tell me that you think Mr. Benett can’t do it?”
Calvin was dumbfounded.
His face was flushed from holding himself back. At that moment, he couldn’t say a single word.
Jeanne wrinkled her brows a little. “That’s enough. Why are you all still arguing at a time like this? What
in the world are you thinking of? Darcey Group and Wickam Group. Which company do you want to work
with?”
In an instant, everyone fell silent.
Everyone had their own schemes, but no one was in a rush to reveal it.
Seeing it, Jeanne sneered. “Let me express my opinion. I recommend working with Wickam Group. After
all, Mr. Wickam and Ms. Linda are going to get married in the future. With a partnership like this, it will
appear as if the two families’ relationships are only getting better.”
James smiled. “Although this makes sense, you have to know that Liz is the one who is working in this
partnership, not Ms. Linda. Gareth and Liz are divorced. Shouldn’t this be avoided instead?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone was at a loss for words.
James took the opportunity to take another shot. “What would everyone say? Would they praise Mr.
Benett and Ms. Linda for being highly principled for the company’s sake? Or would they demean them
for doing it because of profit…”
He didn’t go on.
But everyone understood that it was degrading.
Jessie clearly didn’t want this to go on for too long. She said indifferently, “We have to ask what Liz thinks
about this. No matter what we do now, we are bound to offend one party.”
Wyllow, who was on James’ side, nodded. “I think that we should work with Darcey Group instead. On
principle, since Ms. Elisa and Mr. Wickam have such a close relationship, even if he is offended, he
wouldn’t really say anything for her sake. We will be safe. But if we choose Mr. Wickam and offend Mr.
Darcey again, Mr. Darcey’s temper isn’t as good as it looks on the surface.”
No one on Norman’s side said anything because they couldn’t decide either. Norman had to make a
decision on it. They could only make a stand after he did.
