Chapter 359 Anthony took out his phone and called Luke. âMile-End Corporation has been too bored lately. Give them something to do.â
âYes, Sir.â
At Mile-End Corporation.
Julian reclined on his presidential chair languidly as he anticipated for a message to ring his phone. Plastered on his face was a determined expression.
Charmine pined after him for so many years; how could she stop loving so abruptly? She would come back to him so long as he put in some effort into what he did.
All of a sudden, Oliver ran into his room, panting, âThis is bad, Mr. Cabell. Something happened! A couple of luxury brands terminated their contracts with us, and they even said theyâd never work with us again!â
âWhat?â Julianâs brows furrowed at the report.
Mile-End Corporationâs main source of profit was derived from their shopping malls that housed all sorts of luxury shops.
Basically, they were places for the rich to spend their cash. If every luxury brand terminated their contracts, the corporationâs shares would plummet and would land them in a daunting position.
Head lowered, Oliver meekly added, âAccording to what I found, this was Boss Baileyâs doing.â
Boss Bailey?
Anthony Bailey?
It was then Julian recalled what Anthony spoke to him at Violet Villa the last time they met, and his words resonated in his ears:
âSheâs mine. If you disturb her again, Iâll make sure the Cabellsâ name disappears from Burlington!â
So, Anthony did this to him?
Was he not just fooling around with Charmine? Why would a man on such a high pedestal fall for Charmine? How could he attack the entire Cabell family for this woman?
Abruptly, a few shareholders barged into his room as they voiced their displeasure.
âMr. Cabell, whatâs going on here? Why did they terminate their contracts?â
âOur company shares have been dropping due to your personal issues not long ago. The loss was big, and weâve yet to recover. Who did you offend this time?â
âHow are we supposed to trust you? Are you trying to destroy Mile-End Corporation?â
âI mustâve been blinded to have chosen you as the president!â
Each one of them spoke more aggressively than the other.
Julianâs gaze turned cold and malicious as he glared daggers at them.âGet out!â
Everyone jumped in shock. Julian had gotten too comfortable with his position as the companyâs president throughout the years.
Even though the shareholders were scared of him, the scare of losing out too much gave them the courage to speak again.
âYou should give us a plausible answer!â
âThis loss isnât that money can solve on its own. You must do something about it!â
âHow am I supposed to solve this when youâre all here making a scene? Why donât you be the president then?â Julian glared at them with his authoritative look.
The men jumped a little. Them, becoming the president? How could they?
Although they were the main shareholders, their job as shareholders was to collect the profits. The real power to make decisions and solve problems still belonged to Julian.
One had to admit that Julian was indeed a capable man.
Well... That was before everything went downhill!
One of the men said, âAlright, weâll give you some time. You have half a month to turn Mile End Corporationâs reputation for the better. We wait to see the results.â
With that, he left with the rest of the shareholders.
After they left, Julianâs hands tightened with such force that the armrest of his chair showed some cracks. His aura was akin to a cold winter.
Charmine...! Charmine Jordan!
The once shy Charmine had all that confidence to make Anthony do this to him, just after sleeping with him?
Did she truly think Anthony would like her?
Did Charmine genuinely believe she would live happily ever after with Anthony?
