Going down together
Lucas was so enraged that he was about to explode.Within just a few days, he had lost more than four million dollars.Rey was an absolute dimwit!Even if the most idiotic people invested blindly, they wouldn’t suffer such huge losses.Moreover, the money Rey lost was all the funds belonging to the Emerald Garden!“… What about the rest of the money?” Lucas desperately tried to control his urge to rip the man in front of him to pieces.Rey immediately pointed at Trina beside him. “This woman has the rest of the money! She told me that she has good channels and could help me recoup the five million dollars in the shortest possible time, so I transferred all the money to her!”Everyone was staring at Rey’s finger and watching him shift it to Trina’s body.Seeing that things were going awry, Trina hurriedly shirked all responsibility, “What nonsense are you saying? I didn’t know about this at all, and I never took five million dollars from you. Why are you putting the blame on me when yo
An absolute dimwit
“We found out that just half a month ago, a sum of ten million dollars was suddenly transferred from the Emerald Garden’s account to a personal bank account belonging to Mr. Rey. But the usage of this sum was not reflected in the financial statements!”“Therefore, we have reasonable grounds to suspect that Rey embezzled this large sum!”As soon as the assistant said this, Rey’s fat face turned pale.He collapsed helplessly on the floor, and large sweat droplets emerged from his forehead.The other people around them were just as astonished.Ten million dollars was by no means a small sum.In fact, it was a massive amount!Most people struggled to save even a hundred thousand dollars after working hard all their lives, let alone ten million dollars.It was absolutely outrageous!Even William was shocked, and his face immediately turned as dark as ink.He had indeed guessed that Rey wouldn’t abide by the rules, and he also knew that people in high positions would inevitably be greedy fo
Results of the investigation
Rey was telling Trina that if Lucas discovered his misdeeds, Trina would also be implicated because she was his accomplice!At this moment, Trina was shivering incessantly.After getting fired from the Emerald Garden, she had indeed lost a great money-making job.But if the Clements found out what she and Rey had done, she would probably have to go to jail for the rest of her life!The thought of the consequences made Trina so terrified that she was about to wet her pants.She immediately turned to face William, knelt by his feet, and pleaded, “William, no matter what, we’re former high school classmates. Quickly help me beg for mercy from Mr. Clement! Otherwise, I’ll be in huge trouble. Hurry up and ask him to spare me!”Seeing the drastic difference in Trina’s attitude now and that of her arrogant self minutes ago, William only found it ridiculous.William looked down at the panicked Trina with a look of contempt and mockery on his face.“Have you suddenly remembered that we’re form
Carrying out an investigation
Before he finished speaking, Lucas was already annoyed with his incessant rattling and the fact that he kept throwing his weight around as a veteran employee.He directly interrupted, “Hmph, you still want to stay in the Emerald Garden to retire? Okay, you don’t want to leave, huh? I’ve given you a chance, but since you don’t cherish it, don’t blame me for being nasty!”He glared at Rey and took out his phone to call his assistant. “Go and investigate the general manager of the Emerald Garden in Avalon. I don’t know his name, but he has a fat face and large ears. Screen through all the company accounts that he has handled, as well as the economic activities he has participated in. If you find any irregularities or negligence in his duties or abuse of authority for personal gain, report to me immediately! If anyone dares to conceal any information, you know what to do!”“Mr… Mr. Clement…” Rey immediately felt as if he had plunged into the ice cellar as he shuddered uncontrollably.Alth
Pleading for mercy
Trina had only worked in the Emerald Garden for a few years, while Mr. Rey had already been an employee for more than ten years.It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him a senior employee.Yet Lucas actually dismissed him, too, for William’s sake.When Trina saw Lucas’s cold and solemn face, a sudden chill and wave of horror surged in her heart.For the past year or two, she had been acting tyrannically at work by relying on her relationship with her backer, Rey.Not only did she get the position of a supervisor, which came with a high annual salary, but she also managed to get tens of thousands of dollars in commission from the sales she snatched from others.Besides, she also had a high status, and everyone, including her superiors, would be extremely respectful toward her, afraid of offending her.It was as if they were facing Rey in person.Trina had always been an overly ambitious person who felt that she was beautiful.In addition, she was treated like a queen in the Emerald G
Slapped twice in an instant
Lucas was incensed.He had happened to be in the vicinity to inspect the operations of his family businesses.But he suddenly received a report that the staff of the Emerald Garden, one of his businesses, had gotten into a conflict with a customer.Lucas didn’t take it seriously at first because it was just a trivial matter that didn’t require his attention.But when he heard that the customer involved in the conflict was William, he was frightened out of his wits!He immediately dropped everything and hurried over, just a second before the Emerald Garden’s security guards were about to get physical with William.He managed to stop them from stupidly offending William just in the nick of time.He, the esteemed scion of the Clement family, had no choice but to bow down and apologize to William.Yet this silly woman actually dared to jump out and insult William in front of him.Isn’t she afraid of further incurring his wrath?Trina’s eyes widened in shock, and she spluttered in disbelie
