Chapter 233 Speaking on His Behalf

Mr. Ward was the first to break the silence. "Jae, we trusted you when we approved the launch of this production company. You even handpicked the entire team yourself. How could you let us down like this?"

Mr. Linden chimed in, "That's right! I heard the films the production company invested in have made no progress for months. What exactly is going on? My assistant went to the production office this morning. The place was practically deserted! Is this how you repay our trust?"

I remained silent, sitting there calmly as their complaints echoed around the room.

Mr. Plume sighed heavily beside me, his tone carrying a hint of reproach. "Jae, you owe everyone here an explanation. This isn't some small project. The company has already poured 20 million dollars into it. If it collapses now, do you know how much of a loss that would be?"
