Chapter 272
At this moment, it was very late at night. Due to the spreading news, Justin had been having meetings with the staff of the entire Public Relations department for consecutive nights to come up with solutions to tackle the issue publicly.
Rachel walked out of the office and coincidentally bumped into Frankie, who had just returned from the hospital.
“President Hudson.”
She nodded in response. “President Burton and the rest are inside. I’m going out to get some food for everyone.”
“I’ll go. Please rest, President Hudson.”
“No. Go join them. He’s waiting for you.”
Unable to counter Rachel, Frankie hastily went into the meeting room.
With that, Rachel turned around and took a glimpse, only to find out the window blinds behind the meeting room’s glass walls weren’t closed, allowing her to vividly witness the meeting from outside, as well as Justin’s tensed brows that loosened at Frankie’s arrival. In the last few years, Burton Group had undergone major staff reshuffles. Everyone who was once close to Justin had left except Frankie, and that was why Justin had utmost trust in this assistant of his. Rachel figured the reason Frankie was able to remain wasn’t because of his work capabilities, but because of his obedience-his obedience to Arthur.
As Rachel was heading to the twenty-four seven convenience store on the other side of the road, she dialed a number. “I’m getting some food right now. It’s about time we put an end to the news.”
“That’s it?” In the phone was Jolly’s voice, along with the rhythmic clicks of a keyboard. “I was just getting started on these comments, though…”
“We’ve achieved our goal. There’s no need to overdo it.”
“Why? Is the old man having a huge quarrel?”
“Yeah.”
