CHAPTER 91
Thirteen minutes passed. Mia kept looking at her wristwatch every few seconds. The confidence on her face had slowly turned into impatience. She looked at Johnson and shook her head."You have only two minutes left."Johnson remained calm.Mia pointed at him. "I am serious. If I don't see my money within the next two minutes, I will call the police and report all of you."Emily became nervous."You don't have to do that," she said quietly.Mia turned toward her. "Then tell your boyfriend to produce my money."Emily looked helplessly at Johnson.Bethany had stopped recording for a moment. She lowered her phone slightly and waited to see what would happen next.She was convinced that Johnson could never produce such a huge amount of cash within fifteen minutes.Emily moved closer to Johnson and whispered, "Are you sure Mr. Steve is coming?"Johnson looked at her and smiled."Don't worry."Johnson gently patted her shoulder."I told you he would come."Emily sighed deeply."I hope you ar
CHAPTER 92
The silence continued for several seconds.Johnson looked at Steve calmly before asking."Is that all it will cost?"Steve nodded immediately. "Yes, Mr. Johnson."He looked at the damaged Porsche again before turning back to him."Yes, Mr. Johnson. I believe that amount will be enough to restore the car completely to the condition it was in before the accident."Johnson nodded. "Alright."Mia, however, was still completely frozen. She had not moved from where she was standing.Her eyes remained fixed on Steve as if she was trying to understand what she had just heard.One hundred and twenty-five million dollars. For repairing a car that, in her opinion, had only suffered a few scratches and a broken headlight.She remained silent for several moments before Johnson finally turned toward her."Miss Mia."Mia slowly looked at him."It is now your turn to settle the bill for my car."Those words immediately brought her back to reality. Her eyes suddenly became red with anger."What?"John
CHAPTER 93
The crowd remained stunned as Steve calmly stepped forward. He looked at everyone before turning his attention back to Johnson."Mr. Johnson has earned my trust and confidence," Steve said firmly. "I am deeply indebted to him, and that is why I personally made sure this Porsche was carefully customized for him as a sign of my gratitude."A wave of surprise immediately moved through the crowd."You customized the car yourself?" someone asked.Steve nodded. "Yes. I personally supervised everything."Another man shook his head in disbelief."Then there is nothing else to argue about."A woman standing nearby whispered to the person beside her, "Do you know who Steve's customers are? They are mostly the biggest families and business leaders in this country."The man nodded."I know. Even the government gives Steve Cars contracts for vehicles worth hundreds of millions of dollars, sometimes even reaching a billion dollars for senior government officials.""Exactly," the woman replied. "If
CHAPTER 94
Bethany's heart pounded so hard that she felt as though everyone around her could hear it.She kept sighing nervously, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not find the right words to answer Johnson's question.Her throat felt dry, and her mind was completely blank. She looked at Johnson, then at Emily, and finally at Steve, but she could not explain what she had planned to do with the video.Before Johnson could say anything else, Steve stepped forward."Mr. Johnson, please don't worry about this matter. I will handle it myself."Johnson looked at him for a moment before nodding slowly.Bethany felt as though the ground beneath her feet had disappeared. She wanted to defend herself, but before she could say anything, Mia suddenly shouted from where she was still kneeling."You!"She pointed directly at Bethany."You pushed me into all of this!"Bethany's face became pale."Mia, calm down.""How can I calm down?" Mia shouted. "I only wanted my car repaired! I never asked for al
CHAPTER 95
Emily's face was filled with expectation as she waited for Johnson's answer. She knew very well that Johnson did not have a job at the moment, and she also knew that he was not working as an artisan or doing any other kind of business that could keep him occupied every day.That was why she could not understand why he was taking so long to accept the position she had offered him in the Human Resources Department.Johnson remained quiet. He simply looked at her without saying a word. Emily became uncomfortable under his gaze and slowly turned her face away."Please don't look at me like that," she said shyly.Johnson smiled."Why?""Because I don't know what is going through your mind."Johnson's smile became wider before he finally broke his silence."Emily, I know you care about me, and I truly appreciate that."Emily looked back at him."But?"Johnson sighed."But this may create a problem between us."Emily's expression changed slightly."What kind of problem?""I am not saying tha
CHAPTER 96
The phone rang for a few more seconds before Johnson gently picked up the call."Hello?"The call connected immediately. George's voice was still trembling when he spoke again."Johnson, I need your help."Johnson frowned as soon as he heard what George said."What do you want from me, George?"George took a deep breath."Bethany called me a few minutes ago. She told me that she was held at Ring Road Junction because she was covering the scene with her phone."Johnson's expression became serious."Who is holding her?""Mr. Steve."Johnson narrowed his eyes."What does Steve want?"George hesitated before answering."He wants to punish her.""What kind of punishment?"George's voice became even weaker."She said he wants to break her hands so that she will not be able to use her phone again."Johnson slowly leaned back in his chair.For a moment, he said nothing.George quickly continued."Johnson, I know you were there when everything happened. Bethany told me that you were also at th
CHAPTER 97
Ava was surprised when Johnson told her that he was coming to the office. She had expected him to ask someone else to handle the document or perhaps tell her to bring it to him later, but instead, he had decided to come personally.She quickly asked again, as though she wanted to make sure she had heard him correctly."Young Master, you are coming over to the office?"This time, her voice carried more than a surprise. She sounded excited. The thought of Johnson coming personally to the McArthur Conglomerate immediately changed her expression, and she could not hide the happiness on her face.Barrister Christopher, who was sitting beside her, noticed the expression on her face and became curious."Is the Young Master coming over to the office?" he asked in shock.Ava did not answer with words. She simply nodded her head in confirmation.Christopher's eyes widened. "He is actually coming?"Ava nodded again. "Yes. He said he is already on his way."Christopher immediately straightened hi
CHAPTER 98
A few minutes later, the taxi finally stopped in front of the massive McArthur Conglomerate building. Johnson looked through the window for a moment before opening the door and stepping out.He reached into his pocket, paid the driver, and stepped away from the vehicle."Thank you, sir," the taxi driver said as he prepared to drive away."Thank you too," Johnson replied with a smile.The driver was about to drive off when he looked at Johnson again. He could not hide his curiosity, so he shook his head and asked rhetorically, "But what is a young man like you doing here?"Johnson only smiled without answering.The taxi driver drove away, still looking at him through the mirror.Johnson turned toward the massive entrance of the McArthur Conglomerate. He walked through the first huge gate and immediately noticed the difference between the company and every other company he had visited before. Expensive vehicles were parked everywhere, while security personnel stood at different position
CHAPTER 99
Johnson asked the question with so much expectation written all over his face that even Ava could not help but smile. He leaned slightly forward, waiting for Barrister Christopher's answer."Does that mean we can appoint the CEO of the Anderson Group of Companies?"Without wasting any time, Barrister Christopher nodded confidently."Yes, Young Master. We can."Johnson's face immediately lit up."So we can actually remove the current CEO and appoint someone of our choice?""Yes, Young Master," Christopher answered. "As the highest shareholders, we have the authority to make that decision. Of course, it must be done according to the terms and procedures contained in the agreement, but the power to make the appointment now belongs to the McArthur side."Johnson leaned back and slowly nodded."I understand."He looked down at the documents again."Then I want to understand everything properly before I sign.""That is perfectly fine," Barrister Christopher replied.Johnson began going thro

Johnson dressed quickly, his mind filled with worry, and rushed downstairs. He had barely reached the main entrance when he saw Samuel Briggs already waiting for him."Good morning, Young Master," Samuel greeted respectfully."Good morning, Samuel," Johnson replied.Samuel immediately noticed the worried expression on Johnson's face."Is everything alright, Young Master?"Johnson shook his head slightly."Samuel, you will follow me to one place."Samuel nodded without asking too many questions."Of course, Young Master."The two men walked toward the waiting vehicle. Samuel was about to enter the driver's seat when he stopped and looked at Johnson."Young Master, should I bring some security guards with us?"Johnson immediately shook his head."No. We are not going there with security guards."Samuel looked slightly surprised."Are you sure?""Yes. Just drive."Samuel nodded."Alright, Young Master."He entered the driver's seat, while one of the guards at the mansion opened the rear
