The long U -shaped table was filled with Anderson Corp. shareholders and business partners, in a reclining chair located in a circle, a white -haired man dressed all in white and with a cane sat while blowing smoke from his tobacco pipe. His eyes widened watching the demeanor of the shareholders who were ready to be the willing pack in front of him.
The door of the meeting room opened and two handsome men about 6 feet tall stepped in, in neat suit jackets, they were Anderson's siblings who were raised by the Old master after the death of their parents, Cade and Daniel Anderson.
The shareholders in the company are used to dealing with Cade, but they have never dealt with Daniel, rumors had it, Daniel is more ruthless and calculating than Cade.
Everyone in the meeting room wondered about Daniel's presence, as far as they knew Daniel was not involved of Anderson Corp.'s matters . The old master nodded his head to Anwar who was standing at the door with Molly, they left the room, and closed the door of the meeting room.
The initially cold meeting room started to feel warm, the 18 Celsius air conditioner did not feel like the temperature on the remote control screen. Some people in their 60s often sipping the water served in front of them, each looking anxious as if they had a hidden secret about to be revealed. Daniel's eyes sharply highlighted the point of their actions, his smile is eerie like a slicing knife and it was metaphorically felt on the skin of the anxious -looking man.
The atmosphere was quiet even though every attendee was ready to start the meeting, however it had become tense without a single sentence being uttered. All of a sudden the man who had been silent at the end of the table stood up and slammed the table with his palms. He shouted and howled accusing the old man in front of him of accepting illegal money to lobby for the project and giving the project to an unauthorized company without a proper bidding.
The project had to be abandoned because the inspection found that the foundation of the building did not meet the safety features set by the federal government. As a result, the tens of millions that had been spent by Anderson Corp wasted, although that amount would not make Anderson Corp bankrupt, it was totally unacceptable, this negligence and greed would cause Anderson Corp's reputation to decline if its continue.
Molly was the one who discovered this, she diligently checking all the documents given to her before being signed by Cade, for this reason of discovery, the Old Master changed his perception of Molly little by little and of course with Helena's words of wisdom, he is willing to let it slide if that means he can still be in control of Cade.
"Enough!!!!" Cade roared, his expressions darken.
" We already know who is the mastermind behind this" Cade pressed the intercom in front of him and instructed the security at the company to drag the two men, they pleaded on their knees not to be sent to the police station.
Their foreheads covered in sweats as they begged for kindness from Cade, they also seem to try their luck to gain sympathy in front of Daniel, Daniel who had been silent from the beginning leaned back in the swivel chair and closed his eyes not wanting to know the company's affairs. He looked at his watch every few minutes, tired of the drama going on in this meeting room, if this happened in his casino, he would order his subordinates to cut off the hands of the perpetrator used to accept the bribes. His grandfather and brother were too gentle in dealing with this issue. There is no mercy for those that dare to swindle his money, he is not a very forgiving person, everyone knows he is petty when it comes about grudges.
The door opened and 5 men in black shirts headed inside and grabbed the arms of the two men who were still in a kneeling position on the floor. They screamed and howled as they hurled insults at each other,
Cade no longer able to endure hearing them and waved his hand with the intention of ordering the security to get rid of them quickly. His ears were ringing at their screams. The old master who was silent also finally breathed a sigh of relief after the two criminals were taken out. The other submissive shareholders did not dare to raise their faces, fearing of the situation that had already taken place.
If fear they wanted to show off just now so that no one would dare betray the company, then they succeeded.
All of the employees in Anderson soon heard the news regarding the two upper management that was apprehended without mercy, making them confirm to not ever crossed the Anderson Clan be it in business or life in general.
