Chapter 6642
The Ares LLP partners were all clapping in approval.Right now, their worst fear was Nate using the evidence he had in hand to sue them. But if Nate relinquished that right, they wouldn't face legal repercussions—not even the feds could get them when it was company-approved.Their second demand was to distance themselves from Nate. After all, no one would willingly work for someone so revolting and cunning, and thus, resigning was ideal.However, the two conditions stated instantly cleared Nate's mind.In fact, he soon became livid as he looked around at everyone and growled coolly, "I offered all of you an olive branch to assure you would get off unpunished while ensuring we can keep working together to get rich, but why should I follow through if you're all bent on leaving?"So, I will give it to you straight—I kept the evidence exactly because I was worried you would all turn against me, and every last one of you is in on this. Walk out on me, and it will be jail time!"As h
Chapter 6641
Jimmy's belly swelled with grief as soon as he was reminded of his previous trip to Oskia.Picking up the mic, he started ranting endlessly about Nate, going into vivid detail about his troubled visit to Oskia, and he whipped out his phone to show everyone everything Nate had on them.It was as if a powder keg had detonated—there was substantial incriminating evidence on every partner, and Nate had possession of all of it. The lawsuits could be worth millions, and if charged, it would be either prison or horrific amounts of money in compensation.Everyone in the meeting room was snapping and cursing Nate all at once, demanding an explanation—some of them were even charging at him, ready for a fist fight.Nate was therefore as frustrated as he was afraid. He really thought he and Jimmy had come to an understanding and that he could even use Jimmy to get on friendly terms with Julien.Instead, he had been set up, and now, the situation was spiraling out of control. How was he go
Chapter 6640
However, even if Nate allowed them to leave and had them keep it a secret, it would still cause terrible losses to his firm.After all, most of the evidence gathered on the partners was by handing off lawsuits to them in the first place. If the evidence ultimately proved pointless, that meant Nate's money was going down the drain.When that happened, he would lose both human resources and money while the central pillar of Ares LLP would disappear, leaving the roof collapsing on them.That was why he pleaded, "Please, Jimmy, we're all colleagues here, you can just tell me what you're dissatisfied with. There's no reason to ruin internal cohesion…"Even before Jimmy could speak, Eric immediately shouted, "Just tell us everything you know, Jimmy! If Nate really has dirt on everyone, we need to form a united front to stand against him! Otherwise, we are all screwed if he picks us off one by one!"Eric was just as furious as he was afraid. Even if Nate was despicable, he had indeed com

Nate was sweating buckets even as he quickly understood the situation, cursing inwardly that this was exactly why Jimmy had signed that ten-year contract without a fight.It was a trap!Glaring murderously at Jimmy, he snarled through his teeth as he demanded, "What good would this do, Jimmy? If you affect the law firm's income, your wages will be affected too! Are you really willing to sacrifice an arm and a leg just to get back at me?"Jimmy smiled and shot back, "My wage is guaranteed in our contract without any conditional clause. That means you're paying me fourteen million each year, even if your profits are shrinking. There's no way I'd just let you get away with it, would I?"It was only then that Nate remembered Jimmy had refused the stocks, only demanding a fixed wage and commission.He was the one being a fool when he presumed that Jimmy was being short-sighted. The prick had already planned everything!Glaring spitefully at Jimmy, he growled threateningly, "Fine. I wo

As Jimmy finished, he turned toward the confused partners and spoke loudly, "Everyone, there's something I have kept from you for a while—Nate Ellis here? He's a real bastard! He arranged so that I would fall for a typical legal pitfall, all so that he could keep the evidence and use it as leverage against me. I only found out recently myself!"Nate was left sweating bullets and put a hand on Jimmy's arm, pleading under his breath, "Look, man—if you think I don't pay you enough, just say it! I'll sweeten the pot even more! But if you insist on exposing me and toppling me, you won't get to enjoy the goodies!"Jimmy snorted in disdain. "So what if I did? I will expose you right here and now, and you'd still have to give me all the goodies over the next ten years!"Pointing at everyone seated, "That applies to every single partner of Ares LLP in this room. I'm sure each of you knows very well that you're keeping some dirty laundry, and I will now tell you that Nate has evidence of that
Chapter 6637
Charlie's response left Nate confused, and he wondered what the former was talking about.No matter how one interpreted it, Charlie's words seemed sinister!Still, considering that Charlie was Julien's subordinate and he might be speaking on Julien's behalf, he quickly asked, "What do you mean by that, Mr. Wade?"Charlie smiled. "It's exactly what it means. Are you sure you're really pleased to meet us?"Nate remained confused, but he still said politely, "Of course, Mr. Wade. I've admired Mr. Rothschild for a long while now, so I'm pleased to also meet a man in his service."Charlie nodded and chuckled, "Sure, but you really shouldn't jump to conclusions. Let's see if you can say the same again in thirty minutes."That left Nate further confused as to why Charlie was saying such things, and hence turned toward Julien to gauge his reaction.Seeing that Nate was looking at him, Julien asked, "Nate Ellis, right? What do you have in mind, asking Jimmy to bring me over?"Nate quick

After that, Nate connected his laptop to the projector, having prepared a PowerPoint presentation to introduce and promote Ares LLP, making a meticulous effort intent on leaving a good impression on Julien.He even led everyone in memorizing the contents, not forgetting to remind them about how they should make themselves look good without getting caught.While they were busy working on their script, Julien arrived at Shangri-La by 2.40 pm. Charlie had already arranged for him to be taken to the VIP room while he and Paul would arrive ten minutes later.Once they were gathered, Charlie told Paul, "Call your uncle. Tell him that we're here and that he should come out to receive us.""Yes, Mr. Wade," Paul nodded respectfully and called Jimmy.Jimmy was immediately spirited upon hearing that both Julien and Mr. Wade had arrived, and he stopped Nate's presentation, saying, "Mr. Rothschild has arrived. Shall I bring him over now?""Sure, hurry up!" Nate said after some thought. "We

After a flight lasting over ten hours, the legal associates of Ares LLC finally touched down in Aurous Hill.To motivate everyone after the monotonous journey, Nate told everyone that the famous Julien Rothschild would be present for their internal meeting.Everyone, barring Jimmy, was immediately excited, though Jimmy was actually in a good mood, albeit in the spirit of schadenfreude.They got in three Rolls Royce Ghosts that were waiting for them as arranged and arrived at Shangri-La in dramatic fashion.Still, Nate couldn't wait to see Julien.Soon after they checked in, he was knocking on Jimmy's door as he asked, "Hey, why don't you contact Mr. Rothschild now? We can just get the business out of the way, and once we're done, we can enjoy our remaining time here in Aurous Hill!"Jimmy was a little shocked. "Do we really have to rush this? I mean, we just landed, and most of us haven't gotten over the jet lag.""It doesn't matter," Nate quickly said. "The meeting won't last t
Chapter 6634
After Paul conveyed Jimmy's plan to Charlie, he asked for Charlie's opinion.Charlie was actually surprised that Jimmy would bring Nate and his colleagues over so soon after he returned to the States, but he also knew very well what Jimmy had in mind.After all, Jimmy did not have much authority with Nate around. Even if he had the biggest stick in the form of Julien Rothschild, complications might still arise.As such, it was far more ideal to just bring Nate to Julien and let Julien personally execute him.For Charlie, it was Jimmy's friends who would have to travel halfway around the globe, anyway—he just had to wait in Aurous Hill and watch as everything unfolded.He told Paul then, "Let them come, and recommend Shangri-la to Jimmy and his friends. Once they hold their meeting there, Julian and I will head over and poach those ten partners Jimmy chose.""Very well, sir," Paul replied politely. "I'll relay your message to him."It was nighttime in the States, and Jimmy was ju
