The whole crowd was dumbfounded upon hearing that, especially the big four. They couldn't believe Roderick's ignorance had led him to find interest in a useless piece of land.

They all laughed silently. In the end, they concluded that only a useless fellow would find value in a worthless parcel. It's very simple logic.

What a pity!

What a waste of resources!

As for Christina, her head was buzzing with serious disgust and anger. She was gobsmacked and couldn't believe her ears that Roderick had gone for such a useless land. She wondered if Roderick even knew what he was saying at all.

Did he just say he was interested in land on the outskirts of the city that serves no purpose?

Christina tried hard to understand his intention in making such a request, but it was difficult for her. Was he trying to save face by purchasing any available land so they wouldn't return to the office empty-handed?

Or was he just clueless about what kind of land they needed for the project and thought they cou

    After the quality goods were returned to the Bolton Group, Murray deeply apologized to Kate and Alex for the trouble and embarrassment.However, Alex and Kate appreciated Murray's effort instead. There's no doubt that if it hadn't been for his involvement, the matter wouldn't have been resolved so easily.After that, Murray left to handle the matter of the thieves within his organization.Not only Christina but also Kate and Alex were still totally surprised about how things really turned out.At first, Christina suspected Alex. Later on, Alex thought Frey and his colleagues were the ones trying to act smart.Surprisingly, it turned out that the officials who were supposed to be trusted were the ones who messed up the whole thing.If Murray hadn't been an honest man, there's a great chance the whole case would have been buried as soon as he got involved.One of the things that still mesmerized Alex was Linus' disclosure about Rex. He was surprised to learn that Rex had enough fake pro

    The silence in the atmosphere grew more intense at that moment as Rex and Linus looked at each other hatefully.Linus inwardly sent heavy curses toward Rex as his face turned bitter.He hated the fact that he had agreed to the illegal activity with Rex from the outset.With how boldly and confidently Murray threw the question at them, he worried that Murray might have known about their theft before he arrived.Naturally, it was unusual for Murray to go around checking on departments. Linus thought that for Murray to be there, he must have had some information beforehand.Meanwhile, at this moment, Rex regretted leaving the deal in Linus' care. He inwardly blamed him for his incompetence.If not for Linus’s incompetence, he never believed he would ever be in such an embarrassing state."Do both of you think this is a staring competition or something?" Murray still tried to maintain his cool as he asked the suspects before him."Mr. Hunk, I'm looking him in the eyes to make him confess

    "Hehe! No, sir! No problem with that! I was just thinking I would go and handle them once I leave here."Rex quickly forced a smile as he answered. He was trying his best to keep the fear gathering in his mind hidden from the public’s view."You have been useless from the start; you shouldn’t be bothered with the assignment being in your care any longer," Murray said plainly, totally dismissing Rex.Turning to Frey and his colleagues, they were briefed about the latest report.They were surprised to learn that 75 percent of the goods were of really good quality.Just then, Murray asked them, "So, how do the 15 percent fake goods get here? Mr. Hill's proof has proven him innocent. For that reason, you are the only suspects on the ground."Upon hearing this, Frey’s heart sank in his stomach.He had said yesterday that whatever goods they found in their container were what they got from Alex.Then, if Alex had been proven innocent now, there’s no one else who would be held responsible fo

    A few moments after the bodyguards left, a very fat, elderly man was seen running towards Murray, who was trying to maintain calmness despite the rage presently consuming him.Despite the heaviness of the approaching man’s body, he didn’t know how he was able to carry himself, but he ran with all his might and fell before Murray.This man was none other than Rex Oaklam.The loud thud echoed through the hall as Rex threw himself on the floor before Murray and began to plead. Everyone present was shocked by the scene.“Forgive me, Mr. Hunk! I know the punishment for my offense, but please forgive me, sir.”Rex was close to bursting into tears at this moment. All eyes were on him.Of course, he knew the gravity of his offense in leaving a serious business matter for a junior staff member to handle.He was in his office when news reached him that the head of the organization was looking for him. After learning the full details of why Murray was looking for him, he dared not waste another

    Linus didn't want to believe that they were really coming in their direction.But the closer they walked, the more his doubt proved useless. It was clear they weren’t heading anywhere else but towards them.At that moment, Linus forced himself to accept the reality. Then, he quickly scrambled forward to welcome Murray.He believed that if he could make a good first impression at his first meeting with the head of their organization, it would not only save him trouble that day but also benefit him in the future."Mr. Hunk! It's so good to see you, sir. My name is Linus..." He hadn’t finished his introduction when Murray waved a hand to stop him.Murray was a man who never had time for unnecessary introductions. He believed people who were always eager to introduce themselves where and when it wasn’t needed were nothing but hypocrites.He saw it as an attempt to cover up one's mistakes before they got exposed.Leaving Linus behind, Murray walked forward, stopped before Alex and the othe

    For the third time in a row, Alex had called Rex Oakham, but he wasn't picking up.Alex couldn't understand why Rex was unable to answer his call. It had never happened before that he had to call him repeatedly without anyone answering.Not even at this crucial time, when he needed him, did he expect this to happen.Seeing Alex's face frown as he continued trying to reach Rex, a secret gentle smile appeared on Linus's face, as he knew Rex wouldn't answer the call.That had been one of their initial plans. Linus and Rex had agreed that if Alex had to call Rex again after they had concluded everything, it meant something had gone wrong.And for that, Rex shouldn't answer the call. By then, when Alex and the others found out there was no other option for them, they wouldn't be able to do anything else but leave."Mr. Hill, for Mr. Oakham not to be able to answer his call, he must be in an important meeting," Linus said to Alex, hiding the smile on his face."Is that so?" Alex wasn't real
