Chapter 609: Howard Made a Move on Ethan

"As a dad, I'm testing him. Firing a bunch of people on a whim? That's just too

emotional. Without replacements, how's he gonna compete with the Raymond Group for projects? The Douglas Group's already lost a ton of veterans to them and is on the brink of losing. If these projects tank, he won't dodge the blame.

Howard started aiming the beef at the Raymond Group.

Now, the only way Howard could make the Douglas Group lose faith in Ethan was by bringing up the Raymond Group.

Ethan sneered. "You really got nothing left to say, huh?"

"Ethan, you're still too young and not mature enough. You gotta get that the Raymond Group can never be our forever friend; only forever interests exist. If the interests don't line up, they'll switch sides sooner or later. Unless you can buy them out." Howard smirked, hinting at something Ethan couldn't possibly pull off.

At least with the Raymond Group's current growth, Ethan definitely couldn't do it.

The board members exchanged looks; Howard's demands on Ethan were way too harsh.

Buying out the Raymond Group?

The Raymond Group's growth in recent years has outpaced the Douglas Group.

"That's quite a statement." Ethan smirked. "If I can't do it, it seems like I don't respect you."

Howard frowned. "Arrogant."

"Those shares you hold? I don't even care about them. You don't need to keep embarrassing yourself here. The Douglas Group will be better off without you," Ethan

told Howard to bounce from the Douglas Group.

"I'll give you a big gift at the charity donation event," Ethan added.

By then, the Douglas Group's top brass and Howard's crew would be completely silenced.

He could truly take control of the Douglas Group, completely kicking Howard out with no chance to bounce back.

"Dream on." Howard sneered and stormed off.

In the underground parking lot, Howard, fuming, got into the car and looked at the driver. "Call Sophia and tell her it's time to act. The sooner we get rid of Ethan, the better."

"Yes, sir."
