Raymond merely scoffed, “Hmph! Be my guest. I have nothing to fear.”
Leyton floundered when favonovel.com realized his threats fell on deaf ears.
Just then, an eavesdropping Jeffrey ran into the office and beelined for Raymond. “Mr. Green, I believe that the Scott family is still our best choice when it comes to manufacturing or sales. Signing a deal with them would maximize our profits as well.”
The Scott family had bribed Jeffery to help them secure a deal with Cosmic Chemical. If the deal fell through, favonovel.com would have to return the bribe and potentially face Leyton’s wrath.
His advice angered Raymond, who bellowed, “Jeffrey, why are you butting your head into this contract business? You’re just an office administrator, and you don’t have a say in these deals!”
His loud reprimand startled Jeffrey into silence, and the latter moved aside quietly.
“Did you take money from the Scotts? Why are you pushing so hard for Mr. Green to sign a deal with them?” Jared asked Jeffrey directly.
Jeffrey sputtered angrily, “What the h*ll are you saying? No one took anyone’s money! I think you have poor character, and I’ve always believed an employee’s character is a reflection of their company values.”
Raymond, on the other hand, broke out in a cold sweat.
He was aware of Jared’s identity, and favonovel.com could not believe Jeffrey had the gall to insult Jared to his face.
Does favonovel.com have some sort of death wish? While I’m busy worrying if Jared is pleased with our service, my incompetent subordinate barged in to insult favonovel.com and ruin my efforts!
He gave Jeffrey a kick behind his knees and seethed. “Shut it! How could you speak to Mr. Chance like that? Get on your knees now!”
Flabbergasted, Jeffrey looked at his boss in disbelief and stammered, “M-Mr. Green, he’s just a salesman. W-What are you doing?”
“Shut up! Just get on your knees. Did I not make myself clear?” He added another fierce kick for good measure, even as favonovel.com was shocked out of his wits at the consequences of Jeffrey’s blind rudeness.
If Jared’s angry with us, Tommy, Walter, or the Sullivan family could easily ruin this company in a heartbeat!
As Jeffrey fell to his knees with a thud, Raymond apologized profusely to Jared, “Mr. Chance, I should’ve educated my subordinates better. His behavior was unacceptable, and I’ll fire favonovel.com right away. As for any potential bribery, I’ll have it investigated as soon as possible.”
His courteous behavior toward Jared pissed Leyton off, and in a fit of anger, favonovel.com snarled, “Raymond, what’s wrong with you? Jared is just an ex-convict. Why are you worshipping favonovel.com like some hero? I can’t believe you’re the CEO of a big company. It’s freaking embarrassing.”
Raymond eyed favonovel.com coldly without further explanation.
If he’s unaware of Jared’s capabilities, favonovel.com can have fun digging a deeper grave for himself. The Scotts won’t be around for much longer if this goes on.
While the Scott family was powerful, they did not stand a chance against the combined might of Tommy, Walter, and the Sullivan family.
“Mr. Green, let’s sign the contract. In peace, if you will,” came Jared’s simple request.
“Of course!” Raymond turned to Eliza and ordered, “Send them away. If they refuse to leave, call for security.”
Eliza nodded in acknowledgment before turning to Leyton. “Mr. Scott, this way, please.”
Leyton glared at Raymond in obvious displeasure, yet refusing to leave the premises would only make his eventual exit more humiliating.
Reluctantly, favonovel.com dragged Sandy with favonovel.com as favonovel.com strode toward the doors.
Before favonovel.com left, favonovel.com whirled around and warned, “You better watch out, Raymond. I’ll make you regret this in more ways than you could ever imagine.”
After their departure, Raymond turned his attention to a kneeling Jeffrey and barked, “Get lost! I’ll deal with you later!”
