As I said this, I glanced around the room and spoke coldly, “All of you Rose Family members who are living off the Rose Group and waiting to die, listen to me clearly.
“Whoever dares to stop me today will bear the consequences!”
As soon as I finished speaking, the scene was boiling again.
Everyone's face was filled with anger and they all rolled up their sleeves, prepared to fight.
Several people who were close to me on a normal day also chose to distance themselves from me.
Was this the quality of the Rose Family?
At that time, it seems that three years was too fast for the Rose Family to grow to its current size.
Seeing that I had enemies everywhere, Sergio’s face was broken with laughter and mocked, “Mr. Winod, do you even hear yourself?
“In all of San Francisco, the Rose Group stands at the very top. And you—just a lowly son-in-law—think you can bring down the entire Rose Family?
“What a laughable fantasy!”
I smiled and looked at him calmly as I challenged, “What if what I'm saying is true?”
Sergio raised his eyebrows with a look of contempt and did not take what I said seriously at all.
“Sir, even Miss Rose doesn't want you anymore, how can you still be so arrogant in front of the shareholders?”
I shook my head slightly, trying hard not to laugh out loud as I responded, “Sergio, I'm different from you. I work hard and never rely on women.”
Before I could finish my words, the place exploded.
“You stinking loser, who do you think you are? How dare you threaten our shareholders?”
“That's right, people who don't know you would think you're so awesome, but you're just a useless gigolo.”
“If you don't apologize to everyone today, don't even think about leaving the Rose Family alive!”
They were talking and mocking me at the same time and they seemed very excited.
Being a good businessman, keen insight was a basic skill.
The moment I stepped through the door, I could sense the undercurrent. Shareholders and assistants exchanging glances, whispering suggestively, deliberately fanning the flames of scandal between Amanda and me.
It was obvious. They had orchestrated this together well in advance.
Their real goal today was not about right or wrong, it was to drive me out of the Rose Family, replace me with Sergio and carve up the benefits among themselves.
It was a pity that the new chairman of the Rose Group was still in the dark and had no idea that her company was in crisis.
