Chapter 39 A Honda Accord stopped right in front of Wolfenden Corp.'s entrance. As soon as the
driver got out of the car, he sprinted for the lobby without a care for his car. Not even the security
guards could stop him. The driver looked panicked as he jabbed his finger on the elevator buttonâ
and he was none other than the boss of Capital Building Material Corp., Kenneth.
Taking Gabriel's suggestion, he had come straight to Wolfenden Corp. to apologize in person! He
was not wasting even one second with it, and this was the first time in his life that he felt how
tortuously slow the elevator was.
In the meeting room. Miles snorted. âMr. Oxley, do you think we should be praising you for being
efficient?â Easton's heart dropped. Milesâ tone did not sound kind! Ben stood up with a glower. âG-
Grandpaâ"
Ben raised a hand to slap Easton, stunning the latter. The young man was frightened and asked
shakily, âG-Grandpa, have I done something wrong?â âIdiot! You've caused so much damage to the
company!â roared Ben.
"Who asked you to go to Mr. Young personally without Ms. Wolfenden's permission!? Do you think
you're capable? Stupid!â
Easton felt utterly wronged. He did not understand it. It was the company that had asked him to get
the contract signed, and it was also the company that had said he would not be able to accomplish
it. Now that he had accomplished it, no one was praising him. Even his grandfather, who favored
him the most, had slapped him in front of everyone!
Trevor and Miles watched with a smirk. Trying to play the pity party card? The joke's on them â they
were not going to be bothered.
Sadie sucked in a deep breath. âEaston, not too long ago, Mr. Young called all the construction
material suppliers in Clouspring and asked them to stop supplying materials to Wolfenden Corp.
âWhat have you actually done to have angered Mr. Young so much?â
Easton felt chills run down his spine. âH-how could this be? I did not know things would turn out like
this!
He simply felt this was a trick from Miles and must not let the latter succeed.
âI-I..." Easton was so frightened that he was at a loss for words. Miles mocked, âMr. Oxleyâs brain
isn't functioning very well, obviously. You didnât think of this when you did it, huh?â
Easton's gaze on Miles was furious.At that moment, the door to the meeting room suddenly swung
open, and a middle-aged man whose right nostril still had scrunched-up tissue barged in a little
hastily. Trevor looked alarmed when he saw the man. He was shocked. âWhy is Kenneth
here!?âKenneth started awkwardly. âMr. Wolfenden, s-sorry. I was in too much haste...âSadie stood
up, looking very surprised. âWhy is Mr. Young here?â Kenneth went up and explained politely, âMr.
Wolfenden, I'm so sorry. It's a misunderstanding. I called the other company owners and told them
that it was all a misunderstanding!âWolfenden Corp. will always be Capital Building Material Corp.'s
VIP. As long as there's a demand on your side, our company will prioritize it!âLiam and Sadie were
astonished. What was going on? Was this the Kenneth Young they knew?Trevor was in disbelief as
he glared at Kenneth. It was just that the latter did not even glance at the Lawsons but looked at
Sadie earnestly. âMs. Wolfenden, I've already transferred the $ 440,000 that I owe to your company
account. âIt's only logical that a loan is repaid. I hope you can forgive my previous offense!âSadie
was dumbfounded.âMr. Young, you make it sound too serious...â
Kenneth then looked at Easton with glowing eyes. âMr. Oxley!" He approached Easton and grabbed
his hands fervently. âYou're really the team leader of The Tetrad, Mr. Oxley. We had a smooth
cooperation today."Please give me the chance to work with The Tetrad if it's available in the future!âI
believe that The Tetrad will definitely become a pillar of support in Wolfenden Corp. under your
leadership!â Easton's grandfather, Ben, was baffled. Was his grandson... so skilled? Easton was still
confused but seeing how servile Kenneth was being, he puffed up his chest promptly. âThank you
for the flattery, Mr. Young.â Kenneth hurried to say, âNo, no, not at all. It comes from the bottom of
my heart!â Kenneth then asked anxiously, âMs. Wolfenden, um, can I leave now?â Sadieâs lips parted
slightly. She did not exactly know what to say, so she only replied dryly, âof course..."Kenneth was all
smiles even though he looked rather funny with the tissue in his nostril.âUh, okay, please, go on with
your meeting, Ms. Wolfenden. I'll excuse myself now!"Liam snapped out of his daze and asked,
"Sadie, send Mr. Young off.â Kenneth waved his hands in a frenzy. âNo need, no need! Please, stay
put, Ms. Wolfenden. I'll leave on my own!"Kennethâs panicky and terrorized look confused both Liam
and Sadie. The meeting room was lulled into an unnerving silence after Kenneth left as well. That
was until Easton broke it."Ms. Wolfenden, can I go now?"Sadie broke out of her trance and nodded
with an odd gaze. âHead back to the projects department first..."
Easton fled. As for his grandfather, he was upset now and did not want to care about the
oldman!Trevor and Miles looked incredibly dismayed.Liam could care less as he called some of the
construction material owners right in front of them.âMr. Sun, it's me, Liam Wolfenden...â âMr.
Wolfenden! I was just about to call you. The call earlier was just a misunderstanding! A
misunderstanding!â âThat's good to know..."Several calls down the line reflected a similar attitude
from the owners. After the calls, Sadie asked Trevor, âMr. Trevor, you've asked The Tetrad to handle
this, What do you think now?â There was a slight change in Trevor's expression, but he held it back
and said with a blank face, âNot bad. Reward them with some bonuses.âHe could no longer sit
around and got up to leave the meeting room after that.Sadie scoffed upon seeing Trevor and Miles
leave in a hurry and rejoiced. That was for shooting themselves in the foot! Trevor called Kenneth the
moment he was in Milesâ office."Kenneth Young, what's the problem with you!? Are you playing me
for a fool?â Trevor questioned fiercely.Kenneth was even more furious as he cursed, âF*ck you, Trevor
Lawson! Don't drag me along if you want to die! âI almost died because of a fool like you! Call me
again, and I'll get someone to end you!âB*stard! F*ck!â Kenneth cussed and hung up right away
without any regard for Trevor.
