The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More Novel - Chapter 367
Chapter 367 Increasing Unhappiness
Although Chen Man was old, she still had a very good hearing. She could clearly hear these discussions one after another. She frowned and slammed her hand on the table. “Sure! Since everyone unanimously thinks that this matter is my family and Xuan’er’s fault, I’ll make this matter clear.”
“If anyone has any objections to the decisions and actions of our eldest branch again, you can secretly keep it in your heart. However, if I hear any complaints, Huo Tao and I have the right to take back the shares and dividends that the other families of the Huo family have taken. I hope that everyone won’t blow up the matter so much. After all, when the news of the Huo family having internal strife spreads, the ones who will be affected the most will be everyone here, not my family!”
Upon hearing this, Huo Peng quickly stood up and waved his hand to persuade her. “Sister-in-law, you can’t do this! This is too much. No matter what, you’re still the daughter-in-law of the Huo family. How can you make Big Brother do something like this, not caring about the lives of his siblings!”
Chen Man looked back at Huo Peng disapprovingly with a lawless expression. “If you’re not convinced, you can report this to the old master. I want to see if the old master will side with you or listen to our family! If you want to take the lead and see if I’ll do that, you’re welcome to be the one to stand
out.”
“Chen Man, you! You’re going too far!” Huo Peng was already furious by Chen Man’s words. He did not even address her as his sister-in-law and directly called her by her name!
Seeing that Huo Peng was at a disadvantage in the confrontation, everyone was too ashamed to continue arguing with Chen Man. All of them lowered their heads and prepared to find an excuse to escape.
When Chen Man saw this, she patted the table in front of her again and emphasized, “I’ve already made myself very clear today. At this juncture, I don’t want all of you to insist on going against my eldest branch. We definitely have to deal with the Kang family. The rest of you only have to worry about how you should spend money at home as before and how you should enjoy yourself. If any of you are blind and still want to provoke us, you’ll end up like the Kang family. My family will definitely take back the Huo family’s shares and assets from all of you and let everyone starve with their families!”
Upon hearing Chen Man’s cold tone, everyone shrank their necks in fear. They ignored her and left the Huo Corporation resignedly, not daring to even sigh.
Not long after the Huo family left, Huo Xuan’s car arrived at the corporation.
He took the elevator straight to Huo Tao’s office. The moment Huo Xuan opened the door, he saw Chen Man sitting not far from the door.
Huo Xuan frowned slightly and quickly walked to the woman’s side. He held Chen Man’s hand and said worriedly, “Didn’t I ask you to rest at home? Why are you at the company now?”
When Chen Man saw that the person who came was Huo Xuan, she recalled that when she left the small mansion this morning, she had instructed the man to take good care of Mo Zhu. She thought that the girl had woken up and couldn’t be bothered to answer Huo Xuan’s question. She hurriedly held Huo Xuan’s hand and said, “Why are you here too? Has Xiao Zhu woken up? How is she? Is there anything wrong with her body?” When Huo Xuan heard this, he patted Chen Man’s hand lightly and replied softly, “Xiao Zhu hasn’t woken up. I came here to deal with something else. I asked Mo Jiu to stay and watch over her!”
When Chen Man heard this, she lowered her head in disappointment and replied in a low voice, “That’s fine too. I’m not that worried with Mo Jiu watching over her…”
After saying this, she suddenly recalled the question Huo Xuan had asked just now. Chen Man continued indifferently, “This afternoon, because of the Kang family, many people from the Huo family came to the office to argue with your father. I rushed here to help him deal with it.”
