Translator: 549690339
A tightening feeling gripped Cole, who promptly let his gaze turn toward the conference room’s entrance.
After confirming no one was there, Cole, whose heart had been dangling, let it slightly drop.
That scare gave me a heart attack!
Coming back to his senses, Cole immediately threw a disgusted facial expression at White Mitchell, and quickly spoke up in dissatisfaction: “Lousy brat! Quit playing tricks here!
This is our detection station’s report, even if the Chief arrived, I would still say this, this is the most authoritative report!”
Initially, Cole thought Mitchell actually had the capability to invite the detection station’s Chief over, but now there wasn’t even a shadow.
This kid was obviously trying to scare him.
But he failed to think who he was, he was the detection station’s Vice Director, what hasn’t he seen? He’d be scared from an undirected word?
What a joke!
Cole, thinking of this, wore a dismissive expression, even more vibrant, his demeanor, reaching its peak of arrogance.
But just as he was in the throes of success, a cold voice suddenly came from the conference room’s entrance: “Cole!!!”
Huh?
This time, Cole’s heart really started to tense up, the muscles on his face couldn’t help but twitched, before his gaze slowly turned to the conference room’s doorway, his mood wavering.
Only to see a figure, still wearing the detection station’s work uniform, holding a file bag in his hand, with a stony face, heading toward the stage and walked over.
Wow!
Upon recognizing the newcomer, Cole’s heart instantly skipped a beat, his expression instantly becoming frantic.
Calton! This is Calton! His direct superior Calton!!!
Cole was completely taken aback; Calton arrived at this critical moment!
This, clearly, was not good news.
Don’t tell me, that kid who just spoke knows Calton, and had him called over?
Or does Calton know about him taking money to falsify the report?
Gulp!
Thinking about this, Cole couldn’t help but swallow, his heart rising to his throat, he was panicking incredibly.
“Calton…Chief Calton, how are… you…” Cole, his voice suddenly started to stutter, his demeanor turning guilty, his legs even trembling.
“Humph!”
Before Cole could finish speaking, the middle-aged man in the work uniform couldn’t help but coldly snort, looking disgustedly at Cole: “You are the one saying your report is the most authoritative, right?
Come, come, then you tell me, between this report in my hand and yours, which one is more authoritative?!”
What?…
Cole’s face started to darken as soon as the sentence dropped, so nervous he didn’t even know where to put his hands.
“Calton… Chief Calton, listen to me, the situation isn’t…” Cole subconsciously tried to defend himself, but Calton instantly kicked him.
Wow!
Cole, who had been kicked over by Calton, felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, his heart instantly gripped by a bone-chilling cold.
“Chief Calton, things aren’t as you think, hear me out…hear me out…” Cole quickly crawled over, but Calton kicked him again.
Calton, looking disgustedly at Cole: “Get lost! I’ll deal with you in a minute, you low life!”
What?…
Cole was totally dumbfounded; his face instantly clouded over, frozen on the spot shocked, It took him a long time to regain his composure.
Afterward, Calton picked up the microphone, opening the file bag in his hand.
Calton picked up a detection report, telling the audience: “Hello to all the press friends here, I am detection station’s director Calton, what I’m holding here in my hand, this is the real detection report! The Jones Group products, have no issues at all!
The document just brought out by Cole is nothing but a counterfeit report he forged after accepting a bribe!
It was my poor management that led to such a villain as Cole be in the inspection station. Now, I am here, on behalf of the inspection station and myself, to formally apologize to the Jones Group.”
With that said, Calton deeply bowed to all the Jones Group employees.
Then, Calton turned his gaze back to the crowd: “As for Cole’s bribery, I have already reported it to the police. From today onward, Cole will no longer serve as the deputy director of the inspection station!
And, I have informed all my peers about this man. He will never be employed again!”
Wow!
As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate uproar at the scene.
All of the reporters, at this moment, pointed their cameras and camcorders at Cole.
“Vice Director Cole, do you have anything to say about this?”
“Vice Director Cole, do you know how many years you can get for accepting a bribe? Did you consider this before?”
“Vice Director Cole, who instructed you to do this, can you disclose that?”
You… you!
Wow!
Upon hearing this, Cole’s face immediately took on a mournful expression, then he blacked out and collapsed on the ground.
It’s over!
I’m totally done for this time, I not only lost my job, but I’m also blacklisted, and most importantly, I’m going to jail!!!
“Blake Thomas! You ruined me this time!!!” Cole scrambled to his feet, glaring in the direction of Blake Thomas.
“Cole, you mo…”
Blake Thomas, looking startled, immediately became flustered. He hastily turned his face away, avoiding Cole’s gaze, fearing it would implicate him.
But at this moment, some reporters had already noticed Blake Thomas, effectively blocking his escape route.
“Excuse me, sir, are you the one who instructed Vice Director Cole to do this? Now that it has come to this, what do you have to say? Have you considered that you might go to jail with him?”
Wow!
Faced with the journalists’ sharp questions, Blake Thomas could hardly cope and he hurriedly slipped away from the scene.
Meanwhile, witnessing the disheveled Blake Thomas, Will Jones and others stood in place, their faces gloomy as if filled with water.
They had lost, again, to Sherry Jones, their plan had completely failed!
Moreover, this press conference not only cleared up the bad public opinion about the Jones Group, but it also unwittingly attracted a great deal of public attention to the Jones Group!
As a result, they not only failed to bankrupt the Jones Group, but also seemed to have given them free advertising.
It is unbearable! They are vexed to the extreme!
Looking at Will Jones now, his eyes seemed to spit fire. There was a strong tinge of annoyance and humiliation about his presence. ”
“Who the hell is helping her!???” Will Jones glared at Sherry Jones, his teeth grinding in resentment.
Whether it’s Carlos or Calton, these are men who couldn’t meet on my own terms.
Let alone the fact that Sherry is just a fledgling rookie who just assumed her position, someone must be helping her from behind, and this person is undeniably powerful!
Who the hell is this person!?
“Dad, what should we do now?” Just as Will Jones was deep in thought, Snowden Jones’s voice brought him back to reality.
Will Jones gave Sherry a fierce glance, and then growled fiercely: “What’s there to panic about! The game is not over yet!
If Sherry wants to resist to the end, then fine, let’s play this game, I once ousted her father from the Jones family, and I can do the same to her now!
Let’s go! Get Antonio Woods and Blake Thomas, we are going back to Jones Family! This time, I will not give Sherry Jones, that damned girl, any chance to struggle!”
