Royce had been walking at the front just now, so his back was to the people behind him at the moment. As a result, his subordinates couldn’t see his expression all this time.

Liam was just a newcomer in the department. After being lectured, he immediately lowered his head.

He indeed had selfish motives when he spoke up for Nora, so he didn’t dare to refute the other men.

Inwardly, though, he thought to himself, I’m done for. I’ve offended Mr. Royce’s favorite subordinate. I probably won’t have an easy time in the company now.

The promotion he had just received might even be taken away soon.

Despite that, though, he still said, “You misunderstand. Lisa’s just someone I know, that’s all. She is not an unreliable person, she…”

The man beside Royce was still scolding him. “You don’t look at such external factors in a project, but at the project itself! So, Liam, you know Lisa? Then this means you’re blind! To think you can’t make a distinction between work and private matters! In my opinion, you are not suitable for our department at all!”

Liam: “!!”

As expected, was he really going to be fired?

He wanted to cry. He had only managed to dodge the bullet because of the investigation into Fred. Was he going to face another unemployment crisis now?

While Liam was thinking about this dejectedly, Royce finally turned his head slowly and looked behind him.

He stared at his trusted subordinate, his face totally sullen.

Seeing his sullen expression, Royce’s subordinate misunderstood even further. He immediately said, “Mr. Royce, don’t be angry. I will make sure to keep an eye on newcomers like him in the future. I…”

Before he could finish, Royce slammed his briefcase against his head and said, “Newcomer? The way I see it, the newcomer has more gumption than you do!”

As soon as he said that, with the exception of Nora, a ton of question marks suddenly appeared above everyone’s heads: ???

Liam’s head also whipped up and he looked at Royce in disbelief.

Royce snapped, “You must have gotten old, so your eye for things can’t keep up with the youngsters anymore! That newcomer is doing very well in my opinion! Hm, yeah, I also think this project is promising! I’m going to invest in this!”

Royce’s subordinate was stunned.

Actually, he didn’t do anything wrong.

After all, Wayne’s project was indeed too unreliable.

It was a good project but Wayne’s project proposal was simply too badly written. No one who received the proposal would invest in it.
