Ormand's expression twisted into a sneer, and his icy gaze swept over the Vice Chancellor, who was shocked, looking intimidated.
Meanwhile, Todd flashed a mischievous grin as he quipped, "How many brothers do you think I have in the Hobson family in the United States?"
As it was widely known that the Hobson Group had an adopted son, the Vice Chancellor went pale with realization. Could it be that Todd was bluffing and had brought the real Ormand with him to this meeting?
In a flurry of apologies, he bowed low and begged for forgiveness. "I’m sorry! It was all the Vice Chancellor's nonsense just now. I had no idea who you both were. Please don't take it out on us."
The vice chancellor shrank back when he saw Todd, his bravado of just a few minutes ago gone. He bowed his head, meekly following suit.
