Chapter 492 On the Brink of a Great War

“Willow has it hard. She’s only been the CEO for a few months and now the entire Southlake Corporation has been reduced to rubble.”

“They used to be so arrogant back when we tried to seek cooperation with their company. They didn’t even take us seriously! Well, she has nothing left now!”

Many sympathized with Willow, while some gloated at her misfortune.

Miranda and the employees of Southlake Corporation were devastated when they learned that the building had turned to ruins.

They might face unemployment even after the war was over. After all, the company was gone.

They were furious as they listened to the mockery from the people around them. Considering the current circumstances, everyone should be united in the face of enemies.

Willow was aware of the brutality of war. However, she simply couldn’t accept the fact that the company had been bombed.

Although her tenure as the CEO had been short, she still poured in a lot of effort into the

company.

Listening to the sarcastic remarks around her, she felt resigned. However, it couldn’t be helped. It was easy for them to be targeted since they were so influential.

“Willow, you rejected me when I proposed to you. Now, look at you. Your company’s gone. How do you feel right now?” Nicholas asked mockingly.

Willow simply couldn’t be bothered with a pest like him.

Just then, Richard, Alicia, and the Stewarts walked over.

“You were so arrogant back then, Willow. I wonder how you’ll still act all high and mighty now that Southlake Corporation has been destroyed!” Richard mocked.

“The CEO of Southlake Corporation who used to have a net value of a few hundred million has nothing left!” Alicia laughed gleefully.

“Why did you sever ties with the Stewarts, Willow? At least our company is still intact. I wonder if you regret your decision back then?” Marilyn taunted.

However, Marilyn didn’t dare to go overboard. She knew how formidable Caspian was.

The Stewarts were mocking her the
