Chapter 1879 Davin Asking For Votes

“I-I’m not swayed by the temptations. I only think that we should consider this choice from a wider perspective. Uncle Davin isn’t thinking about us, but Aunt Sheila is. I don’t think it’s the wrong choice to support her.” Nina awkwardly tried to defend herself.

Maya stared at her sister in disbelief. She felt that if Nina changed her attitude so quickly after the call, it had to mean that their aunt had offered her sister a great deal.

Just as she was about to ask what it was, her phone rang again. It was from Davin. Ugh… Is Uncle Davin trying to canvass votes too?

She accepted the call. “Is there a reason you’re calling me, Uncle Davin?”

Davin chuckled. “Well, I just want to have a chat with you, Maya.”

“About what?”

“How do you think I’ve been treating you for the past few years?”

She answered without hesitation, “Pretty good!”

“If you think I’ve been treating you pretty well, then perhaps you’re willing to help me out a little—”

“Just get to the point, Uncle Davin. No need to beat around the bush. I should remind you that someone’s vote has already been bought out. If you want to get my vote, then you have to make sure it’s worth my time. Don’t try to cheap out on your bribe, or else, I won’t vote for you that easily.”

Davin was stunned when he heard that. He immediately thought about how even though Sheila promised not to cheat, she had already won one vote with her bribe. Sheep’s quick! No, I can’t let her win this easily!

He chuckled again. “Then I’ll get straight to the point. What will it take for you to cast your precious vote for me? As long as it’s within my power, I’ll fulfill any wish you have. No need to hold back.”

Maya smirked. Uncle Davin sure is straightforward!

She excitedly took her phone upstairs to talk about her condition.

The negotiations lasted for more than a dozen minutes before she ended the call happily.

While she still didn’t know what her aunt promised Nina, she was pretty satisfied with the benefits her uncle promised to give her. Therefore, she decided to vote for him.

Davin proceeded to call Nina and immediately asked her what she wanted.

She respectfully declined, “I don’t want anything from you, Uncle Davin.”

“Listen to me, Nina. Building an underground palace is my dream. You have to help me out. I promise I’ll give you anything you want.”

“That’s no good, Uncle Davin. The voting must be fair. I want to make my own decision based on my own judgment.”

He couldn’t help but wonder what kind of benefits his wife promised her, seeing how she was so resistant to his offer.

“How about this, Nina—”

She cut him off ruthlessly before he could continue to entice her. “I’ll forfeit my vote if you keep doing this, Uncle Davin. Do you really want that?”

Davin was stunned. It seems like there’s no hope of getting her vote. “There’s no need for that. I won’t force you any further.”

“Thank you, Uncle Davin.”

He let out a sigh once the call ended. Maya’s voting for me while Nina’s voting for Sheep. We’re tied right now. Next up are Kyle and Juan. I wonder how I should convince them to vote for me.

After some planning, he gave the two of them a call.

Juan was as slippery as an eel. He only gave vague answers and showed no hint as to who he was voting for or if he was going to vote at all. In the end, he gave a lame excuse and hung up the call.

Davin still had no idea if Juan was going to support him, but he still hoped that he would.

As for Kyle, he was being as fair as he could. “I’ll think about who I should vote for carefully. No need to worry about me, Uncle Davin.”

“You should consider supporting me, Kyle. What will it take for you to vote for me? Just let me know, and I’ll do my best to fulfill your wish.”
