Chapter 618 A Significant Loss

At the Duncan Corporation, a high- level meeting was in progress, and Branden, who had maintained a constant expression throughout in the head seat, suddenly furrowed his brow.

The executives below were scared out of their wits and shivered, especially the manager who was reporting the situation.

He was already nervous. Seeing the change in Branden’s expression, he was now trembling in fear as if seized by an epileptic fit, unsure which part of his report had angered the big boss.

In that split second, Branden felt a chill down his spine, suspecting someone was cursing him behind his back. He could not help but furrow his brows.

Sensing the change in the atmosphere of the meeting room, the manager, who was reporting, paused in his narration. Branden waved his hand, gesturing for the other party to continue.

When the manager saw that Branden had no inclination to burst into anger, he carefully continued, “Based on the latest data summary from last week, as of the end of last week, our group has incurred a huge loss in the projects we are competing with the subsidiaries of the Breen Group.”

Hearing the financial report, everyone present turned ashen-faced.

Since Branden took charge of the Duncans, this was the first time they had suffered such a significant loss. However, facing the globally renowned Breens and entering into a battle with them, such losses were somewhat expected.

The manager stopped reporting after presenting the situation, waiting for Branden to speak.
