Chapter 371 If He’s Not Kind, I Won’t Be Too
At Valiant East.
Steven’s assistant sent the video to his mobile phone as soon as he entered the company the next day.
After watching it, Steven was so angry that he dropped his phone.
“D*mn old woman, she was pretending in front of me. I knew that she was up to no good.”
The assistant pursed her lips, “President Granger, what should we do now? A few people from the Hamilton family have already occupied several important positions in the company. Finance, project, and development…”
Steven became even angrier when he heard this, “So many? Didn’t they just come here to do some simple jobs?”
The assistant frowned, “You were the one who signed the contracts of promotion! Don’t you remember?”
It was only then that Steven thought of the conversations he had with Bethany in the past. Bethany had always mentioned casually that she wanted to find someone to share their burden in the company. Back then, he was still secretly competing with Amos, so he did not think too much about it.
However, he did not expect this to be his downfall.
With a bang, another ashtray fell to the ground.
Kesha was almost hit by the debris when she opened the door to the office. She barely dodged it.
“Miss George!” The assistant looked at her hurriedly, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine!” Kesha shook her head, “What’s wrong?”
The assistant did not dare speak, and neither did Steven. Kesha had to go over and ask him, “What’s wrong? Let me know. Perhaps I could help.”
Steven seemed to have seen Kesha in a new light ever since her involvement in solving the matter pertaining to the evidence. When he heard her words, he glanced at the assistant.
The assistant immediately left. After that, Steven showed the video to Kesha.
“D*mn old woman, I should have known that she is not so kind. She must have sided with me during the will execution so that she could use me to lay off some of the pressure in the company. Now that she sees that I am unfavored by the people, she immediately tries to seize the company from me. She even arranged for her people to join the company secretly so that I would be pushed to the edge!”
Kesha pursed her lips, and there was a trace of malice in her eyes.
She had put in a lot of effort so that she could become the future Mrs. President Granger. She wanted Eudora to look up to her in admiration.
However, in the blink of an eye, the situation seemed to have changed again.
“Is there no going back?” Kesha said, “You are still in charge of the company, aren’t you? Get rid of them then!”
Steven shook his head and said, “Are you stupid? I only have everything now because of that d*and old woman. Many shareholders in the company respect her and think that she is the person who holds the Old Master’s will. If I were to burn our bridges right now, what would people think of me? Besides, the fate of the company has always been in the hands of the board of directors, I am not the sole person who could decide on this!”
To put it bluntly, Steven was just a puppet. However, he did not know it before. Now, he finally understood.
Kesha finally realized that their situation was not as optimistic as she thought at the beginning. She even felt like they had been a joke all this while.
The more she thought about it, the more dissatisfied she was. She gritted her teeth and said,
“Since that’s the case, then we won’t play fair either! If Valiant East is just an empty shell, no matter who comes to fight for it, it doesn’t have anything to do with us anyway, does it?”
Steven was stunned. “You mean…”
“Let’s transfer the properties and build up an empire that truly belongs to us!”
Steven was instantly enlightened by Kesha’s words. He had never thought of this before.
Ever since he was young, his father had told him that Valiant East belonged to them and that he would one day inherit the company and expand it. He had to prove that they were also good at business, that they were no worse than the main family.
Therefore, he had been thinking about ways to take over Valiant East, but he never thought about taking it away.
“This…” He hesitated for a moment, “Would it work?”
“Why wouldn’t it?” Kesha said.
“Think about it. You’ve lived in the Granger family for so many years. You’ve only ever lived below them and you always had to listen to them. Haven’t you suffered enough? You are capable too, so why don’t you give yourself a chance? I believe that if your father were still alive, he would certainly not hesitate to make this move.”
Steven’s heart was like a dark tunnel, and it was as though a ray of light had just shone into the tunnel. He walked towards the ray of light desperately, and finally, he and the ray of light merged into one.
“You’re right! Kesha, I was too stupid. Valiant East was also founded by men. As long as we have money, we could also establish a new Valiant East in the future.”
With this, he held Kesha tightly in his arms.
“Kesha, you really are smart!
Kesha smiled, “Since we have come up with a solution, we have to act as soon as possible. I will stand by your side. We could start from scratch!”
Steven nodded, but he then said again,
“Now, the financials of the company have all been taken over by that old hag…”
“What’s so difficult about that? You just need to find a few projects and take out the money. It’ll be fine! I have a lot of friends outside. If you need my help, just let me know.”
Steven’s eyes lit up and he took Kesha into her arms again.
“Kesha, I’m so lucky to have you.”
Kesha smiled, “As you said, we are already family, aren’t we?”
“Yeah!” Steven nodded, and the scent of perfume gradually filled his nose. Whenever Kesha came to see Steven, she would always dress seductively.
At this moment, the fragrance lingered around his lips. Steven could not control himself as he embraced her.
After a while, Kesha slowly got up from him and put on her clothes.
“I have to go and make the necessary arrangements so that there would not be any hiccups. If everything goes well, we could create a brand new Valiant East in just a few months!”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
…
When Amos said that he wanted to go on dates with Eudora, she did not seem to take his words seriously.
Hence, she began working on her design as usual after getting up the next day. It was the one she had measured at the amusement park a few days ago.
There were a few minor miscalculations in between, so she needed to think about it carefully.
It took Eudora the whole morning to modify it. Then, she brought it straight to Christopher’s company.
As soon as the door was pushed open, she saw many people lying there in a daze, and no one was working at their stations. Seeing Eudora enter, the girl at the front desk immediately stood up, “Miss George!”
“What’s wrong? Is your boss not here yet?”
“Yes!” The receptionist nodded, “He has not been here for a few days! He did not even arrange any work. It seems like many people are not in the mood to work too!”
Eudora frowned and walked in.
As soon as she walked in, she saw that everyone was whispering in the lounge.
“In my opinion, the company is going to shut down soon. The boss hasn’t been here for so many days. What’s the point of coming to work then?”
