Chapter 39 A Honda Accord stopped right in front of Wolfenden Corp.‘s entrance. As soon as the driver got out of the car, he sprinted for the lobby without a care for his car. Not even the security guards could stop him. The driver looked panicked as he jabbed his finger on the elevator button–and he was none other than the boss of Capital Building Material Corp., Kenneth. 

Taking Gabriel‘s suggestion, he had come straight to Wolfenden Corp. to apologize in person! He was not wasting even one second with it, and this was the first time in his life that he felt how tortuously slow the elevator was. 

In the meeting room. Miles snorted. “Mr. Oxley, do you think we should be praising you for being efficient?” Easton‘s heart dropped. Miles‘ tone did not sound kind! Ben stood up with a glower. “G–Grandpa—” 

Ben raised a hand to slap Easton, stunning the latter. The young man was frightened and asked shakily, “G–Grandpa, have I done something wrong?” “Idiot! You‘ve caused so much damage to the company!” roared Ben. 

“Who asked you to go to Mr. Young personally without Ms. Wolfenden‘s permission!? Do you think you‘re capable? Stupid!” 

Easton felt utterly wronged. He did not understand it. It was the company that had asked him to get the contract signed, and it was also the company that had said he would not be able to accomplish it. Now that he had accomplished it, no one was praising him. Even his grandfather, who favored him the most, had slapped him in front of everyone! 

Trevor and Miles watched with a smirk. Trying to play the pity party card? The joke‘s on them – they were not going to be bothered. 

Sadie sucked in a deep breath. “Easton, not too long ago, Mr. Young called all the construction material suppliers in Clouspring and asked them to stop supplying materials to Wolfenden Corp. 

“What have you actually done to have angered Mr. Young so much?” 

Easton felt chills run down his spine. ‘H–how could this be? I did not know things would turn out like this! 

He simply felt this was a trick from Miles and must not let the latter succeed. 

“I–I...” Easton was so frightened that he was at a loss for words. Miles mocked, “Mr. Oxley‘s brain isn‘t functioning very well, obviously. You didn‘t think of this when you did it, huh?”

It comes from the bottom of my heart!” Kenneth then asked anxiously, “Ms. Wolfenden, um, can I leave now?” Sadie‘s lips parted slightly. She did not exactly know what to say, so
