Chapter 275

Sanderson was cut mid-sentence, his brows furrowing as he turned towards her.

Kermit scolded even more harshly, "What now? When did it become your turn to interrupt adults talking? You're really asking for it!"

After saying that, he looked at Lorna and Sanderson, "Big bro, sis, you really need to teach her some manners. Otherwise, it's our name, the Delaney name, that she's dragging through the mud!"

Indeed, Cordelia frequently interrupting the elders was impolite.

But Lorna knew that Cordelia was just overly concerned.

And as for Sanderson, his heart only warmed at her concern; how could he be upset with her?

He looked at Cordelia gently and said, "Lia, let it go."

But Cordelia turned to Dagmar, "This isn't as simple as you think, she's the problem!"

That statement made Dagmar's pupils shrink.

But having navigated the corporate battlefield for years, she had mastered the art of keeping her emotions under wraps. She put on a wronged expression, "Miss, you, you..."

After she finished, she looked at Sanderson and Kermit, "Right, it's all my fault, for not sealing the deal. This has nothing to do with Mr. Delaney!" Before Sanderson could respond, Kermit sneered, "What? Now planning to throw an assistant under the bus? Big brother, that's hardly honorable! We Delaneys, we own up to our actions. Hiding behind an assistant, what kind of man does that?"

Kermit then turned to Steward, "Dad, you see? This is the kind of man who pushes everything onto others, no accountability. Is this really chairman material? No wonder the company's performance has been tanking since he took over."

He tilted his chin up slightly, "Besides, bro, you made a promise that if the deal fell through, you'd resign. Going back on your word now?"

Upon hearing this, Dagmar started to feign innocence, "Mr. Delaney, don't say that, it's all my fault! Should I resign right away?"

Sanderson immediately defended her, “No! This has nothing to do with Dagmar."

He looked at Dagmar, "I'm not the kind to let my subordinates take the fall. Even though we don't yet know what exactly went wrong, I'll take full responsibility."
