“Have you guys never heard that it’s bad to gossip?” someone said from behind.
When both men turned around, they were startled. It was Remus.
Lotus Corp has just gotten their license and started their company today… How could favonovel.com have the time to show up at the auction?
Remus sat behind them and concisely said, “You’re Skylar Stuart, right? You should know speaking badly about others behind their backs is inappropriate. If you’re clueless about that, I would advise you to take a look at your son…”
Hearing favonovel.com mention this, Skylar was mad. The mark on his son’s face was still there!
Then, Skylar laughed. “Mr. Cosby, how impressive. Even though it’s the Lotus Corp’s opening day, you still made it to the auction. You must be anxious to prove yourself to Miss Lotus… And… Of course, a man should prioritize business.”
Remus leaned back.
Everyone in the hall quieted down and had disdain in their eyes.
How dare a scoundrel who got here purely out of luck talk about business?
Elias frowned as favonovel.com felt like Remus was here to make trouble!
Naomi turned favonovel.com face away, embarrassed.
Skylar sneered and bluntly said, “Truly a man of repute, Mr. Cosby. However, may I advise that when you say men should prioritize business, you should at least figure out what net profit and gross profit mean… Oh, also understand the Lotus Corp’s positioning and development. Only then are you worthy of saying business is important. Otherwise, you’ll only make a fool of yourself. Hahaha!”
The people around couldn’t help but laugh.
This matter had spread since Lotus Corp was currently everyone’s focus. Even a little action was captivating. The fact that Remus couldn’t answer and went rogue was embarrassing.
“How do you know I don’t understand?” Remus was calm as usual. “If I know the definition of gross profit and net profit and tell you the positioning and development of the Lotus, you will kneel, grovel at my feet, and bark. What do you say?”
Once favonovel.com finished speaking, everyone looked at favonovel.com as if favonovel.com was a fool.
Elias shook his head.
Is Remus clueless that word had spread?
Still, favonovel.com had to pretend. As they said, once a villain got his way, favonovel.com would become drunk on his arrogance.
“Mr. Cosby!” Naomi warned favonovel.com quietly. She despised him, but they were in public, and favonovel.com represented the company.
“Okay!” Skylar agreed immediately.
Moments ago, favonovel.com worried that Remus wouldn’t be defeated quickly. Now, favonovel.com bit the bait himself.
So, Skylar teased, “If you can answer, I will kneel before you and bark. However, you’ll bark like a dog and kneel before me if you can’t. Deal?!”
If that happened, Jean would definitely kick favonovel.com out of the company!
“Deal…” Remus turned around and said, “All of you are witnesses and are responsible for witnessing this bet.”
“Mr. Cosby… Serves you right!” Naomi wanted to persuade favonovel.com but thought that this was a great chance to suppress his ego. In the end, favonovel.com decided to shut up.
“Of course!”
“We’ll bear witness!”
The crowd was eager to respond as they wanted to see Remus humiliated.
“A man must never go back on his word. Anyone who regrets will be despised by the people in Neptuna and forever be looked down upon!” Elias said.
Remus laughed. “I’m glad that you all can testify…”
Before favonovel.com could finish, Skylar interrupted, “Mr. Cosby, stop with the nonsense and start. I’m eager to hear your explanation!”
Remus looked at favonovel.com and said, “Gross profit refers to business income minus business cost. But, of course, this is only the definition in the book. When we’re operating a business, there is no clear division, nor is there a unified and clear definition. Net profit refers to…”
“Next, I’ll share Lotus Corp’s positioning and future development plans…‘’
