Ch. 1781..1790
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1781
"What did you just say, Snow? We should talk to President Wolf directly if we want to obtain sole proprietorship of Cynthion Group's products. Why do you say so? Does he know some way to help us achieve that?” Julianna could not believe her ears.
Timothy was just as puzzled. He glanced dubiously first at Snow, then at Leon.
"Well, you have to ask Leon yourself, see if he's willing to help," Snow replied vaguely. She said that out of annoyance at Timothy’s arrogance, but she was not certain whether Leon would be willing to offer them sole proprietorship or not-only he could make this decision!
However, since Julianna was her friend, she was willing to give her a helpful push in the right direction.
"Is that true, President Wolf? Can you help us obtain sole proprietorship of Cynthion Group's products?" Julianna asked rather nervously, a glimmer of excitement and anticipation in her ears.
Although she advised against Timothy trying to win over Cynthion Group multiple times, she could not deny that Cynthion Group was indeed a powerful and influential company to work with. If Leon was truly able to help, of course, she would take him up on his offer!
"Um, I'll consider it!” Leon replied calmly. He put two and two together and figured out that Cynthia probably decided to offer sole proprietorship to proxy companies because of his recent mass manufacturing of Energy Nurturing Pills.
Considering Julianna's connection to Snow and the fact that Zeller Group was one of the largest proxy distributors in the region, he could indeed consider offering a proprietorship to them!
However, Cynthia was the one in charge of this, and even if he wanted to do so, he needed to discuss it with Cynthia first!
Besides, his first impression of Timothy was a bad one as a result of his rude behavior, and thus he was reluctant to give Zeller Group what they wanted!
"Consider? What does Cynthion Group have anything to do with you, anyway? What on earth do you have to consider? Are you suggesting that Cynthion Group needs to go through you first before making any decisions as though you're the boss?" Timothy was amused by this. When he first heard Snow's statement, he thought Leon might be able to help obtain the proprietorship of Cynthion Group's pills, but now he realized that these two were just messing with him!
Why on earth would Cynthion Group need to go through a nobody like Leon for decisions like this? This was the funniest thing he ever heard in his life!
"You don't believe me?" Snow snapped when she sensed Timothy's contempt toward Leon. 'I'll be frank with you—nobody gets their hands on sole proprietorship of the Energy Nurturing Pills unless they get Leon's approval!"
"Is that so? What nonsense! How dare you make such atrocious claims!" Timothy sneered. He learned some background information about Leon and Snow from Julianna, and considering that Elegante Group was a newly established company in the Southern region, he did not think these two were capable of making any huge influence in the business world!
However, he would not say the same for Cynthion Group-ever since the success of their sales drive, everyone in the region knew of Cynthion Group's connection to the Thompsons, and not only that but the two supervisors, Iris Young, and Cynthia Shear, were known as the Twin Beauties of the Southern Region and the object of many men's fancies!
There was no doubt that Elegante Group would never match up to Cynthion
Group, and he would be a fool to buy into Snow's lies!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1782
"Well, believe it or not, it’s your call!" Snow was infuriated at not being taken seriously. She decided to give Zeller Group a helping hand on behalf of Julianna, but she could not believe that this was what she got in return for her kindness!
Not only did Timothy refuse to listen to her, he even continued looking down on Leon!
One could only imagine her rage at this!
"Come on, Leon, let's go home," Snow said as she grabbed hold of Leon's elbow, intending to leave.
"Please don't go, Snow-" Julianna quickly tried to stop them. She invited them to dinner out of gratitude for them giving her a chance, but Timothy's rude attitude angered Snow and Leon to the point where they refused to stay even another second. She could not possibly let them leave just like that!
"President Wolf, Snow, I apologize for my husband's arrogance, and I beg you not to take his words to heart," Julianna said earnestly, but before she could even finish, Timothy interrupted her.
"Julianna, they're just upset because I saw through their lies and exposed them! You don't have to apologize on behalf of me for embarrassing them!’ he snapped.
"Can't you just shut up for a moment, Timothy?" Julianna snarled.
"I'm telling the truth! Well, why not this? Since they keep claiming they'd be able to help get our hands on Cynthion Group's sole proprietorship, why not they go with me to meet the president of Cynthion Group right now? I'd like to see what tricks they have up their sleeves!" Timothy said, sneering, and cast Leon and Snow a disdainful look.
"I'm not interested in any of this! Let's go, Snow!" Leon scoffed and got ready to leave. As generous as he usually was, this was the last straw!
"Why, are you two afraid now? you shouldn't have made such outrageous claims if you didn't mean it! Please take this as a lesson and stop embarrassing yourselves!" Timothy snickered.
"You're the embarrassing one! It's just a meeting-no big deal. Leon, let's go with him so he can see for himself just what we mean!" Snow was utterly infuriated by this.
"Let this go. Snow. We shan't waste our time on people like this," Leon shook his head.
"No, I can't let this go! Didn't he say he wanted to go meet the president of Cynthion Group? Let's tag along so we can show him what 'tricks' we have up our sleeves! I’m tired of being treated like this!" Snow replied huffily.
"Um," Leon hesitated at this. Since Cynthia was going to be there anyway, it would not hurt to tag along-that way, he could ask her why she chose to give up the proprietorship of the Energy Nurturing Pills all of a sudden!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1783
"Okay, you said it yourself! They're meeting in the booth just upstairs. I'll bring you guys along!" Timothy said, sneering before Leon could even answer. It was as though he was worried that Leon and Snow would change their minds.
"What are you doing, Timothy? Are you trying to deliberately embarrass Snow and President Wolf?" Julianna exclaimed. The truth was, she had to admit that Timothy was right-it was unlikely that Leon and Snow were truly capable of doing what they claimed.
It was one thing to brag about something that was not true-she could easily let this slide, but she could not believe that Timothy was taking it too far and going to great lengths to embarrass Snow and Leon!
His insistence on bringing them along to the meeting with the president of Cynthion Group made it clear that he wanted to humiliate them in public!
This was getting out of hand!
"Julianna, they were the ones who agreed to go with me, so what did I do wrong?" Timothy said nonchalantly. One thing was clear-every proxy distributor in the Southern region wanted to hop on the Cynthion Group bandwagon, and Zeller Group did not have much chance of outperforming their competitors and winning over Cynthion Group!
However, this was a great opportunity-Leon and Snow were being incredibly disrespectful to Cynthion Group, and if he brought them along to the meeting and humiliated them, he could claim credit from Cynthia and even leave a good impression on her!
That way, Cynthia would likely place Zeller Group as the priority when deciding which proxy distributor to go with!
This was killing two birds with one stone!
"Please, go ahead! Remember, you were the ones who asked for this, so you'd better not regret this!" Timothy snickered, trying to trick them into going along with his plan.
"We'll see who's laughing at the end of this! Come on, Leon!" Snow sneered, then followed Timothy out of the room.
Julianna had no choice but to follow.
A few young, well-dressed men were waiting in a luxurious booth just a floor above. They, like Timothy, were descendants of some of the most powerful families in the Southern region and owned the largest proxy companies in the area.
Since the demand for the Energy Nurturing Pills skyrocketed, they sent endless offers to the president of Cynthion Group, Cynthia Shear, to become business partners, but Cynthia turned all of them down!
However, the time finally came when Cynthia decided to accept their offer for a meeting!
Therefore, they immediately put down everything they were doing when they heard this news and rushed over here to meet her!
"Thud! Thud!"
All of a sudden, the door swung open, and Timothy, Leon, Snow, and Julianna strode in.
"You're finally here, Timothy! You're the last one to arrive!" the men said when they saw him. They were competitors among each other and thus never saw eye-to-eye, but since Cynthia specifically requested them to all be there for fairness, they had no choice but to all gather in the same room.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1784
"Timothy, President Shear has requested us proxy distributors to be here, and just you alone will be enough, why did you bring so many people along? " they were displeased to see three other people standing alongside Timothy.
However, when they caught sight of Snow's good looks, expressions of awe crossed their faces as their displeasure gradually dissipated.
"Well, these two are clients of Zeller Group, and they claim that they can obtain sole proprietorship of Cynthion Group's products, so I brought them along to check things out," Timothy explained.
"What? Is that true?" the men were stunned to hear this. They all poured in great effort to get President Shear to finally agree to a meeting, and even then, none of them could say for sure whether they could get their hands on the sole proprietorship or not!
They could not believe that these two were making such atrocious claims! One would have to be an idiot to believe them!
"Did you hit your head or something, Timothy? These two don't look familiar at all, and, likely, they're not even in our field. How can you believe these two nobodies will be able to obtain sole proprietorship of Cynthion Group?" a man dressed in white replied, sneering.
"He's right! Timothy, you can't just pluck two random people off the streets and try to scare us! There's no way they’d be able to help you get what you want! Get your head out of the clouds!’ the others agreed with him.
They all thought that Leon and Snow were on the same team as Timothy.
"You're all mistaken! I, too, didn't think they’d be capable of doing this, but this is what they claimed. It has nothing to do with me at all," he quickly explained.
"Oh, so it was all just their bragging!" the men gasped in realization.
"We're not bragging! Just because you can't get your hands on something doesn't mean I can't!" Leon replied calmly.
He did not intend to entertain Timothy at all, but he was dragged here by Snow out of sheer annoyance, and since he was already here anyway, he might as well give it all he got!
With that, he led Snow to a seat and plopped down in it, as cool as a cucumber.
"How dare you, you twat!"
"Who do you think you are, making such atrocious claims?"
"Go buy a mirror and look in it for once!" the men all snickered as they cast Leon glances of contempt.
Then, before Leon could even answer, Snow piped up, "What foolish men! Let me tell you this-if you want to work with Cynthion Group, you'd better show Leon some respect! If not, none of you are going to walk out of this room with the sole proprietorship!"
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1785
"What? Hey, gorgeous, it's one thing for this dude to brag about something that’s not true, but you shouldn't join in as well!"
"You're talking as though he's the one in charge of Cynthion Group-who on earth does he think he is?"
The men could not believe their ears. It was one thing for Leon to behave like this, but another thing entirely for such an attractive lady like Snow to do the same!
However, on second thought, they assumed that Snow was probably brainwashed by Leon into taking his side.
At the thought of this, they could not help feeling a little remorseful and a little envious of Leon for managing to bag such a gorgeous woman!
"Well, your loss! You'll see later on!" Snow scoffed and decided to ignore them.
"Is that so? Well, we'll stay tuned!" the men snickered and took no notice of Snow's statement at all.
All of a sudden, footsteps rang out from behind them.
The door swung open, and Cynthia strutted into the room, wearing an expensive suit that made her look elegant and refined.
Spencer and Stephen trailed behind her, looking equally as sharp and formidable in their suits!
"It's President Shear!"
"I can't believe it. It's no wonder she's regarded as one of the Twin Beauties!"
The men quickly approached her in excitement. A few of them could not help letting out gasps of awe as they admired Cynthia's beauty!
"Sorry to keep you all waiting," Cynthia smiled. Her voice was as melodic as a songbird's.
Since the men were all gathered around her, her field of vision was blocked and she did not see Leon and Snow.
"No, no, we just arrived not too long ago," the men quickly replied, grinning as they tried to butter Cynthia up.
The better the impression they left on Cynthia, the higher their chances of succeeding in their task!
"President Shear, let me introduce you. These two are-" Timothy pointed in Leon and Snow's direction, intending to humiliate them in front of Cynthia.
However, before he could even finish his sentence, Cynthia turned to glance in the direction he was pointing and let out an audible gasp. What are you doing here, Leon, Snow?" she asked as she made her way toward them.
"Ugh, stop bringing it up. I must've stepped on a pile of poop this morning- I've the most rotten luck today," Snow scoffed.
"Why? What happened?" Cynthia was puzzled to hear this.
"President Shear, do you know each other?" Timothy's heart lurched at the sight of this. A bad feeling began to arise in his heart.
He was not the only one surprised by this-the rest of the men were equally as shocked. They exchanged glances of sheer disbelief. It was clear none of them ever dreamed that Cynthia Shear, president of Cynthion Group, would know these two people and appeared to be close to them!
One could only imagine their shock at this!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1786
"Of course I know him! How could I not, when he's the president of Cynthion Group itself?” Cynthia replied solemnly, revealing Leon's true identity once and for all.
"What? He's the president of Cynthion Group? How's this possible?” Cynthia's statement was undoubtedly the most shocking thing Timothy and the other men heard that day.
Timothy was the most astonished of all-his entire body froze as though he was struck by lightning.
Up until now, he was under the impression that Leon and Snow were just bragging incessantly, and he never once imagined that not only did they tell the truth, but Leon would even turn out to be the famed president of Cynthion Group himself!
This was unbelievable!
"President Shear, are you mistaken? He's just the president of a newly established cosmeceutical company here, so how can he possibly also be the president of Cynthion Group?” Timothy was still unwilling to believe his ears.
"Of course, I'm not mistaken! How would I-out of anyone-possibly commit such an idiotic mistake?" Cynthia replied sharply, displeased at being questioned like this.
"I-" Timothy's heart sank at this.
Julianna and the rest of the audience were all gaping at Leon with stares of absolute disbelief. They finally realized that Leon and Snow told the truth all this while, all of them have naively underestimated Leon and refused to believe him!
"Cynthia, why did you choose to open up a proprietorship all of a sudden? Why was I not aware of this?" Leon asked, ignoring everyone's stares. 1
"Oh, here's what happened," Cynthia began explaining her point of view.
Now that Cynthion Group successfully established its roots here in the Southern Region, it was only an eventuality that they would expand their business to the other regions in the future-this was the only way they could flourish!
Since Leon already manufactured millions of Energy Nurturing Pills a while ago, they finally resolved the issue of insufficient supply here in the Southern region, and this was why Cynthia decided to open up the Energy Nurturing Pills to the proxy distributors!
Several proxy companies in the Southern region had great connections in the other regions of Sky County, and if Cynthion Group could find someone reliable to work with, they could export the Energy Nurturing Pills to these places and establish their foundation there!
However, since Cynthion Group was not a local company, she was not too familiar with the candidates of proxy distributors available, and so she accepted their invitation for a meeting to meet them and get to know their background!
She did not intend to decide on a company to work with right this instant, which was why she did not tell Leon about this beforehand.
She was just trying to go through the selection process first and inform Leon of the decision after picking out two or three suitable candidates from the array of proxy distributors out there-the ultimate decision would still fall into Leon's hands.
That way, she could spare Leon of the time and energy of having to go through the selection process himself!
"Oh, I understand now!" Leon gasped in realization.
"Well, since you're already here anyway, Leon, I might as well hand over the selection process to you right now!" Cynthia said, smiling.
Timothy and the rest of the men gasped when they heard this and immediately approached them.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1787
"President Wolf, please do forgive us for offending you just now. I sincerely hope you don't take our naive words to heart."
"Ford Group sincerely wants to work alongside Cynthion Group, and we hope that you will consider giving us a chance."
"Yes, Gill Group feels the same way. Please, President Wolf, kindly take a look at this brochure for relevant information about our company."
These men exclaimed, clamoring for Leon's attention as they handed him the documents regarding their respective companies.
"President Wolf, this is all my fault, and I sincerely apologize to both you and Miss Pooole. Please consider offering your sole proprietorship to Zeller Group, on behalf of Julianna." Timothy, too, quickly tried to make amends for his rude behavior. The earnest and rather demure smile on his face was a stark contrast to his arrogance just a few minutes ago!
"Zeller Group? Do you think that's even possible now, Mister Zeller?" Leon scoffed. He agreed with Cynthia-it was certainly a good idea for Cynthion Group to open up their proprietorship to proxy distributors to expand their business to the other four regions.
Since Julianna was a good friend of Snow's, he seriously contemplated the idea of giving priority to Zeller Group, but not only had Timothy doubted both him and Snow multiple times, he even attempted to humiliate them in front of everyone else!
This was way out of line, and there was no way he could offer sole proprietorship to Zeller Group anymore after this!
As for the other proxy distributors, they also looked down on him and Snow when they first arrived, and he still held a grudge against them over this.
"Thank you for feeling so strongly about working alongside Cynthion Group, but I've decided that we'll no longer open up sole proprietorship to anyone for the time being! We shall discuss this again in the future should the need arises," Leon declared calmly without even glancing at the documents that the men were brandishing in front of him.
Although opening up sole proprietorship would indeed benefit Cynthion Group's future business expansion, there were still limitations in the mass manufacturing of the Energy Nurturing Pills, mainly due to a shortage of raw herbs, and thus the quantity that he managed to produce was only sufficient to meet Southern region's supply.
Therefore, expanding their business to the remaining four regions of Sky County was not his priority and would not have too big of an impact on Cynthion Group for now should they fail to achieve that!
Besides, his first impression of these proxy distributors was severely lacking, and thus he decided not to go with anyone for now. Instead, he would consider it again once Cynthion Group hosted their second sales drive in the future!
"Come on, Snow, Cynthia, let's go!’ Leon said to them, then turned and left the room without even looking back.
"Um," everyone’s faces were ashen as they watched Leon leave.
All of them were well aware that their poor attitudes offended Leon, which led to him deciding to give up offering the sole proprietorship!
If any one of them listened to Snow and chosen to treat Leon with more respect, they would have gotten their hands on Cynthion Group's sole proprietorship by now!
However, they wasted such a valuable opportunity!
One could only imagine their shame and remorse at this, but it was too late now!
However, out of all of them, Timothy was the one who regretted this the most!
Based on Julianna and Snow's connection, he could have easily gotten sole proprietorship of the Energy Nurturing Pills, but his arrogance cost him such a precious opportunity!
He wanted nothing more than to slap himself across the face for this!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1788
"Please don't go, President Wolf," Timothy was reluctant to let this go just like that. After a moment's hesitation, he decided to chase after them.
The next moment, he slid to a halt in front of the three of them and gave himself two hard slaps across his cheek. "President Wolf, this is all my fault. This is a gesture of making amends toward you. Please forgive us and give Zeller Group another chance," he pleaded.
How arrogantly he behaved just now determined just how demure he was now!
"No can do! I’ve already made it very clear that Cynthion Group won't be offering sole proprietorship to anyone for the time being. We'll talk about this again in the future!" Leon ignored him entirely and did not even pause in his footsteps. Instead, he continued to make a beeline toward the exit alongside Cynthia and Snow.
"Oh no/ Timothy wailed, his face ashen. He knew that he severely offended Leon, and if he allowed Leon to leave right this instant, there would be no chance of Zeller Group getting their hands on Cynthion Group's sole proprietorship again in the future!
"President Wolf, I truly apologize for my husband's rude and disrespectful behavior, but I hope that you'll still consider working alongside us when it comes to Elegante Group," Julianna said, looking a little worried. She never once dreamed that Zeller Group would even be able to win over Cynthion Group in the first place, and so she never got her hopes up. In contrast, she would rather place her attention on working alongside Elegante Group, and she was concerned that Timothy's disrespect would cost her this precious opportunity!
This was the last thing she wanted to see!
"Don't worry, President Song, these are two separate issues, and since I've already decided to work with Elegante Group, I won't retract my decision!" Leon replied, smiling. He knew that this had nothing to do with Julianna at all-on the contrary, Julianna was kind and understanding throughout, and never once behaved rudely to either him or Snow. Therefore, he was not at all angry at her.
"Thank you, President Wolf," Julianna shot him a grateful smile as the weight lifted off her shoulders.
Leon did not spare another moment. Instead, he led Cynthia and Snow, as well as Stephen and Spencer, out of the restaurant.
The only people who remained in the room were Timothy, Julianna, and the rest of the guests.
"What a pity! President Shear finally agreed to offer sole proprietorship to us, and I can't believe how terribly it ended!" the heir to Ford Group exclaimed in remorse.
"Yes, it's all that wretched Timothy's fault! None of this would've happened if he didn't insult the president of Cynthion Group!" the heir to Gill Group replied rather indignantly, shifting the blame to Timothy.
"Yes, you're right! We didn't stand much of a chance of getting the sole proprietorship anyway, so it doesn’t even matter that much to us, but that idiot ruined such a great opportunity! What a moron!" the rest of the men agreed, all casting Timothy glances of disdain and contempt.
They all knew that Timothy was the one who brought Leon and Snow over, and so it was clear that he had some sort of connection to them before this.
All he had to do was grovel a little to Leon, and it would put him on a clear path to obtaining sole proprietorship of Cynthion Group's Energy Nurturing Pills, and yet he sabotaged his only chance of doing so!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1789
"You!" Timothy's expression was dark when he heard this, but he knew that they were right.
After all, they were just spitting facts-he indeed cost himself a valuable opportunity by being arrogant and disrespectful!
"Well, let's not deal with that idiot anymore! Since President Wolf has already said that he'll consider opening up the sole proprietorship again in the future, let's go home and prepare for this so that we might stand a chance again in the future!”
"I agree. Let's go!"
The men all cast final glances of contempt in Timothy's direction before leaving.
Soon, the only people who remained were Timothy and Julianna.
"Rats!" Timothy's heart sank as he watched his peers leave. He knew full well that as long as Cynthion Group intended to expand their business elsewhere, they would eventually need to offer up sole proprietorship of their products, and when that happened, the other proxy distributors would stand an even better chance of obtaining it after what happened this time!
Whereas he, on the other hand, lost his one chance of winning over Cynthion Group because he offended Leon greatly!
One could only imagine his remorse at this!
"Timothy, I've already warned you many times that you should be more down to earth, but you refused to listen to me! If you took my advice earlier and treated President Wolf and Snow with respect, we could've gotten our hands on Cynthion Group's proprietorship by now!" Julianna said, glaring at her husband. However, there was undoubtedly a hint of regret in her glance.
Although she never once dreamed of getting their hands on Cynthion Group's sole proprietorship, she could not deny the fact that doing so would bring Zeller Group many leaps and bounds forward in their trajectory!
However, Timothy wasted such a valuable opportunity even when it was just dangling in front of his nose!
As understanding as she was, she still could not help feeling upset at him about this!
"I realize my mistake now, Julianna, but it's too late. There's no point talking about this anymore!" Timothy said bitterly.
"What do you mean, there's no point? It's never too late to turn over a new leaf! As long as you recognize your mistake and try your best to change, we still stand a chance of starting over in the future!" Julianna reassured him.
"A chance? Are you saying that we still have a fighting chance of winning over Cynthion Group?" Timothy could not believe his ears.
"Of course! Snow is one of my best friends, and I can always invite her to dinner again! As long as you show your remorse and apologize sincerely to her, I'm sure she'll forgive you. When that happens, we have a chance of getting our hands on Cynthion Group's sole proprietorship again!” she replied solemnly. She knew full well that Snow was the only reason Leon even agreed to meet them for dinner in the first place, and it was highly unlikely that Leon would ever want to do the same again.
However, with her connection to Snow, she could still ask Snow out, and knowing her, Snow would certainly oblige!
As long as Timothy proved his sincerity and managed to make Snow forgive him, their problems would be solved!
"Well, you're right! I promise I'll apologize sincerely and make it up to her so that she'll forgive me!" Timothy perked up in excitement as hope reignited within him once more.
"Alright, alright. Let's go home now! I hope you can take this lesson to heart and stop behaving so arrogantly in the future," Julianna advised him.
"Yes, I'll certainly change my old ways!" Timothy murmured in response as he followed Julianna out of the room.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 1790
The next few days, Elegante Group focused their energy on manufacturing, and with the help of Hughes Group and Zeller Group, managed to steadily grow their reputation within a short time.
Their efforts were like a snowball rolling down a slope, propelling them into a prosperous new stage of their development!
In a little over a week, Elegante Group created a formidable reputation for itself within the Southern region, and was even beginning to expand its business, showing signs of great prosperity!
Working alongside Zeller Group, they managed to gradually export some of the products to the other four regions of Sky County, opening a new market and establishing a strong foundation for their future!
Elegante Group successfully carried out its business plan and accomplished its goal, paving its way toward a bright future!
The General Manager's office of Hiltons Corporation.
"Clang-’
A loud crack echoed through the air as Joel Hiltons, the heir to the company, picked up his glass and tossed it onto the ground in rage, smashing it into smithereens.
"Rats! Where the hell did this Elegante Group even come from? How did they even manage to gain such great traction in such a short time?" his expression was dark as fury raged in his eyes.
The Hiltons were one of the most powerful families in the Southern region, and Hiltons Corporation was the largest cosmeceutical company in the city!
Now that Elegante Group rose to power within just a month and even managed to expand so quickly, they had no doubt become a great threat to the Hiltons' business!
"No! I can't possibly allow Elegante Group to continue flourishing, otherwise, the consequences will be dire!" Joel declared, a glint of malice flashing through his eyes.
Although Elegante Group was still so new that their existence barely made a dent in Hiltons Corporation's sales, he knew that at the rate Elegante Group was going, they would eventually rise to power and become with Hilton Corporations in no time!
When that happened, they would not become a great threat to the Hiltons' power, but even evolve into their biggest competitor!
This was the last thing he wanted!
Therefore, he had to find a way to get rid of the Elegante Group before they could rise to power!
"Thud, thud, thud!" all of a sudden, someone knocked on his door.
A few seconds later, a young, elegant man pushed open his door and strode into the room.
This man was none other than Seth Golan, the heir to the Golan family fortune, and who also happened to be Joel's cousin.
"What happened, Joel? Why are you throwing such a tantrum?" Seth asked, puzzled when he saw the shards of glass on the ground.
"Don’t mention it any more! There's this new cosmeceutical company that appeared out of nowhere, called Elegante Group, and they're advancing so fast that they've already inflicted some damage on Hiltons Corporation,’ Joel stifled his rage and tried to explain as well as he could.
