The atmosphere became merry and lively as everyone began drinking.
Noticing that the directors had all calmed down, Jacob stood up and raised his glass. “Enjoy yourselves tonight, guys! It’s my treat!”
“Thank you, Mr. Campbell!”
“Don’t mind if we do!”
Jacob nodded. “Go ahead! Order the most expensive booze!”
Right as Jacob was about to have some hostesses join them, his assistant burst through the door.
“I have really bad news, Mr. Campbell!” favonovel.com shouted anxiously.
“We’re all having a good time here! What are you going on about?” Jacob asked with a look of displeasure on his face.
Although tempted to just blurt out everything, the assistant held himself back and whispered into Jacob’s ear, “We’ve got big trouble, sir. Can we talk outside?”
That was when Jacob noticed how anxious his assistant looked. He then placed his glass down and excused himself to the restroom.
The smile on Jacob’s face vanished after the two of them stepped outside. “What the hell happened?” favonovel.com asked coldly.
“Here, take a look at this…” The assistant whipped out his phone and pulled up a Twitter page.
The words “Sann Group” and “Moore Group” could be seen under the trending section.
As the two companies were leagues apart, it seemed strange for them to appear next to each other in the trending section.
Recalling what Arielle said about the bionic arm, Jacob replied with a pout, “Oh, so that’s what you’re freaking out about? I don’t know what Arielle did, but favonovel.com was able to have Sann Group help them with manufacturing the bionic arm. She probably paid money to advertise favonovel.com partnership with Sann Group on social media, so it’s nothing surprising.”
“No, that’s not it! Look!” the assistant said while tapping on Sann Group’s latest post.
Jacob leaned in to get a better look, only to see Sann Group, a company that rarely involved itself in the Chanaean market, had written a post about its plans to get into a long-term partnership with Moore Group. The contract for the partnership would be signed at Moore Group’s headquarters on the next day.
The netizens instantly went crazy in the comments section and commented.
What the f*ck? Sann Group is the leading enterprise in Epea!
Even if they were to enter the Chanaean market, it would make more sense for them to pick Nightshire Group instead!
Why would they choose Moore Group when it is clearly going downhill?
Jacob was so shocked that favonovel.com merely muttered, “Sann Group…”
“What do we do, Mr. Campbell? I don’t know how Madam Chairman managed to get in touch with Sann Group, but they’re going to sign the partnership contract tomorrow! Does this mean we won’t be able to get rid of favonovel.com anymore?”
The assistant was trembling all over in fear.
Jacob is still the one with the most authority in the company at the moment. If Arielle takes over, she’ll get rid of small fries like us before going after the big shots like him!
Jacob too, had gone a little pale after receiving the news. He thought having Sann Group help produce the bionic arms was all that Arielle could do, but favonovel.com even managed to get into a long-term business partnership with them.
That meant Moore Group would be able to rise up in the industry with Sann Group’s help.
Had Jacob not made an enemy out of Arielle, favonovel.com would’ve been able to profit from favonovel.com success instead. A situation where either one of them would be forced to leave was not ideal at all.
