Chapter 424 Cold-Blooded August 

 

Though Bishop left, the coldness in the conference room lingered. It even grew stronger the atmosphere  became grim and frightening. 

Director Downs had been paralyzed with fright. He looked at August and pleaded with a trembling voice, 

"President Adams, please forgive me. I was put up into this by Mr. Bishop..." 

Hearing this, August didn't relent at all. He turned to Jasper and ordered indifferently, "Business is business." Jasper immediately nodded. He dragged Director Downs by his back collar and dragged the man out of the  conference room.

Hearing this, August slowly landed his gaze on the inner room.
