“Longtail Group must have caught up with Longbottom Corporation due to Mr. Young’s capabilities. As expected of the apprentice of such an outstanding master, it’s no surprise that Mr. Young is just as remarkable.”Elliott’s attitude toward Laurence shifted in an instant.Earlier, he was still recalcitrant and not taking Laurence seriously.The moment he heard that Laurence was Dr. Carden’s apprentice, he became much more polite toward Laurence and even sounded respectful when talking about him.Misty was not surprised by this.However, even without Dr. Carden’s reputation to back him, she knew Laurence was very capable, having been by Manny’s side.Laurence’s handsome face flashed in her mind, and Misty could not help but sigh in admiration internally. Laurence was the most handsome man she had ever seen in her life.She was Manny’s secretary because her alcohol tolerance was good. Her family brewed and sold wine for a living. She had grown up amongst the barrels, so naturally,

Misty whispered, “You heard correctly, Mr. Durham. Our company is still led by Mr. Longbottom, but not the one you’ve been dealing with.”“What? So it’s true? Then, Manny isn’t in charge of the company anymore?”Elliott lowered his voice as he added, “That Laurence Young is the CEO of Longtail Group, right? Did he really take over your company? Is he capable?“Speaking of Longtail Group… Both companies are in the same industry, so I suppose he can run a business, but he just took over today. Is everyone willing to accept him?“The one I’ve been negotiating with is Manny Longbottom, not Laurence Longbottom. What is there for me to discuss with him? What does he know?”Elliott clearly looked down on Laurence and did not believe Laurence would be able to close a deal. Elliott was even considering making things difficult for him.The main reason was that he got along with Manny, who had always entertained him lavishly, satisfying him.He was also rather fond of Misty.Whenever he c

Elliott Durham was an executive currently negotiating a partnership with Longbottom Corporation. Manny had been the one handling the discussions. As Elliott’s company was highly influential, Manny placed great importance on the deal and took charge of every meeting.However, talks had not been finalized.Manny had arranged for Elliott to come in again today for another round of talks. Until now, he had been the highest decision-maker in the company. However, now, he had been demoted.Although Manny could still continue the negotiation in his current position, he asked Elliott to meet Laurence directly. Clearly, he was putting Laurence on the spot.Since Laurence claimed to know Longbottom Corporation in and out, he could negotiate with Elliott himself.Elliott had already met Manny several times, and each meeting had gone well. Manny even wined and dined him at the finest establishments in the Havenmill. Thus, Elliott had developed a good impression of Manny.Now that Laurence ha

Manny’s expression darkened again. He yanked open the office door and walked out. He slammed the door shut.“Mr. Laurence, you really don’t hold back with your words. You hurt him,” Noelle commented.Laurence laughed. “That’s the point. There’s no need for me to show them any courtesy.”Noelle could not help but smile. “Manny won’t give up.”“I hope he doesn’t. It’s boring fighting against him. He’s no match for me. The only person with some ability is the old man behind him. Manny is just a pawn controlled by his father.“How he moves and where he goes is all arranged by Tony. In terms of business, he can only maintain the status quo. Expecting him to lead the company further would be difficult.”“Times are developing too quickly. Sticking to the old methods won’t work, or the times will leave you behind.“Manny and Tony deserve to spend the rest of their lives in prison.”The final sentence was spoken with great hatred.The tragedy that befell Laurence’s family was caused by

Laurence gestured for Manny to start the meeting.The purpose of the meeting was to introduce Laurence’s true identity to everyone and announce that Laurence would officially become the CEO of Longbottom Corporation from today onward. Manny would step down and become the COO.All company decisions would now require Laurence’s approval before they could be carried out.Everyone accepted Laurence’s takeover. After all, his company, Longtail Group, was already strong enough to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Longbottom Corporation. He had proven that he was capable.Only Manny and his followers were still thinking about how they could trip Laurence up.After the meeting, Laurence returned to the CEO’s office. Manny had not moved his belongings yet, so Laurence sat on the sofa and let Manny move his things to the COO’s office, which was on the sixty-sixth floor.Manny poured Laurence a glass of water and said, “Mr. Longbottom, I can’t move everything out immediately, so I’m afraid yo

Laurence’s bodyguards got out of the car first.Out of habit, Noelle stepped forward to open the car door for Laurence, but Manny beat her to it. He smiled and greeted Laurence, “Sir.”Laurence got out of the car and said to Manny, “Call me Mr. Longbottom while we’re at the company.”Manny maintained his smile. “Yes.”Laurence swept his gaze across the senior executives of Longbottom Corporation.Most of them had crossed paths with him in the business world.Some were exceptionally capable. He had successfully poached several of them, much to Manny’s fury.Manny had also tried to poach people from Longtail Group, but their senior management was impossible to lure away.The person he wanted most was Sonny, but no matter how much money he offered or how generous the benefits, Sonny refused.Now that he knew the true owners of Longtail Group, everything made sense. No wonder he was unable to recruit Sonny. It was because Sonny was also a major shareholder in Longtail Group.As s
