Chapter 138 Donât Go Overboard In the office building of the Kenneth Group headquarters, at this time, the higher-ups of the Kenneth Group began to gather in the conference room.
Most of the higher-ups of the Kenneth Group were members of the Kenneth family. In this family.
company, apart from members of the family, it was impossible to climb to the higher-ups.
At this time, their higher-ups all received a call and immediately came to the conference room for an emergency meeting.
Yes, it was not every Mondayâs routine meeting, but an emergency meeting.
In the chairmanâs office, Holdenâs hands were trembling slightly âBeep, beep, beep. â
On the table, the phone was still ringing, but this time, Holden did not pick it up.
In the beginning, Holden was still calm. The business world was like a battlefield. He had also encountered such an unexpected situation.
The calls came one after another, and he was about to collapse when the tenth call rang All of the calls were targeted at the Kenneth family. It seemed to be a big conspiracy, targeting all the industries run by the Kenneth family in all the cities, not just in Sacramento.
Even Holden, who had experienced hundreds of battles, was caught unprepared at this time.
Besides Holden, Cole was also stunned. They had no energy to think about Stephen now. At this time, Coleâs heart was full of seriousness.
âCould it be Leandro who is against us? For some reason, he has always disliked us,â Cole said. âThere was some friction and competition between us before Mason, whom we expelled, was specially kept in Leandroâs company.â
Holden said with an ugly expression, âHurry up and call him.â
Cole nodded. He quickly took out his phone and found Leandroâs phone number. He dialed the number Soon, the call was answered Leandroâs voice sounded. âHey, Cole, Iâm in a meeting. Whatâs the matter?â
âMr. Hanson, why are you suddenly competing with us like this? If we continue the bidding war, no one will benefit,â Cole said.
âI am willing.â Leandroâs voice came out. âWhat can you do? Universe Group has too much money. Why donât I spend some for fun?â
Cole was at a loss for words.
âIâm coming to your company now Can we have a face-to-face talk?â Cole asked hurriedly.
âThereâs nothing to talk about This time, weâll fight to the death.â After Leandro finished speaking, he directly hung up the phone Cole s expression changed slightly âHe hung up.
Holden s expression was extremely ugly Then he let out a sigh and said, âLetâs go to the conference room first and think of a way to deal with it.â
Just as the Kenneth family was in a terrible situation, Gerald was standing on the roadside, yawning as he waited for the car to come over âYou are Gerald, right?â At this moment, a cold voice sounded in Geraldâs ears.
Gerald turned his head to look and found that a freckled woman was walking towards him.
âWho are you?â Gerald looked at her suspiciously.
âI am Clare Dobbin, Koenâs sister,â Clare said indifferently Gerald looked at her in surprise and asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
âYouâre still asking this.â Clare glared at him. âYou hit my brother, didnât you?â
âHe attacked me first I was just defending myself.â Gerald looked at Clare.
Then Gerald found that Clareâs appearance was just so-so.
Clareâs appearance was not bad, and her figure was well-proportioned. However, her skin was not good, and she was not as charming as Hazel.
âSelf-defense? He is a member of the Dobbin family. No matter what the reason is, you have to give an explanation for hitting him.â Clare took out the Diamond Card and said, âYou work in Universe Group, right? You should know about this card. Now you come with me to my house and apologize to my brother Otherwise, your company may suffer a great loss.â
Gerald smiled, âYou attacked me first, and I was not allowed to fight back. Where is the reason?â
âThink about it carefully.â Clare glared at Gerald. âIf you donât do as I asked, Universe Group will suffer a great loss. At that time, you will lose your job. And my family will not let you go. It is a good choice for you to apologize.
âYou can do whatever you want,â Gerald smiled.
At this time, a taxi came over and Gerald stopped it Just as Gerald opened the car door and was about to get into the car, Clare grabbed the car door and said, âYou have to go back to my house with me If you donât go, I will make a move Seeing Clareâs action, Gerald was slightly surprised.
It was obvious that Clare had practiced fighting before In fact, when Koen used the tennis racket to hit Gerald, Gerald felt that Koenâs strength and technique were stronger than ordinary people s However, at that time, Gerald pushed Koen to the ground and did not think much.
Now it seemed that the reason why the Dobbin family had a high position in Sacramento was that the family members were good at fighting.
âFreckled girl, donât go overboard,â Gerald looked at Clare and said.
Clare was stunned, and then her eyes almost burst out with anger She glared and said, âWhom are you calling a freckled girl?â
Clare stared at Gerald and said, âYou were able to subdue my brother at once, and I want to see what kind of ability you have Today, you must go back with me â
Her hand that was pressing against the car door suddenly turned into a fist. Taking advantage of Geraldâs inattention, Clare swung at Geraldâs face at an extremely fast speed.
Gerald raised his eyebrows and slightly tilted his body. He reached out with his right hand and instantly slapped Clareâs back.
Clare lost her balance and staggered forward a few steps. By the time she came back to her senses, Gerald had sat down in the car Then Gerald closed the door and said, âGo.â
Looking at the running car, Clare stamped her feet and said, âDamn it Gerald did not go to Keiraâs house this time instead, he went to Valeryâs. When he made it clear to his family, he would move to Valeryâs house âHuh?â The car drove on for a while Gerald suddenly saw a girl in a long black dress and, who was walking on the road with a small box She was wiping her tears as she walked It was Gigi that Gerald met in the bar when he returned to Sacramento.
They met several times in a row and followed each otherâs Line account, but they never talked on Line âStop the car here,â Gerald said to the driver The taxi driver did not say anything. After the driver stopped the car, Gerald paid the bill and got. out of the car. He walked over to Gigi and walked side by side with her Gigi didnât seem to care about everything around her. She was wiping her tears as she walked.
Gerald glanced at the box in her hand. There were many books inside.
After walking for a minute or two, Gigi felt that something was wrong She turned around and saw Gerald She was slightly stunned and said, âWhen did you come?â
âYou just found me,â Gerald smiled. âWhat is going on with you?â
Gigi tried hard to control her emotions. Then she smiled bitterly and said, âI was dismissed by the school.â
Gerald was surprised. âWhat?â
Generally, it was rare for a school to dismiss a teacher who didnât make a big mistake.
âWhat happened? Gerald asked.
âIt was because of Andrew,â Gigi sighed. âHe wanted to be together with me again. I didnât want to, so he kept harassing my family. Then he kept harassing me in school, which also caused a lot of trouble for the school.â
Geraldâs expression changed slightly âAndrew went too far Why were you with him back then?â
âI shouldnât have agreed to date him back then. One of my cousins worked for his company One time, I went to visit my cousin. Then he saw me and took my Line account from my cousin. He started to woo me,â Gigi said. âI am indeed at the age where I should get married My parents think Andrew is quite rich. Andrew is in charge of the company and has a high income. Therefore, my parents asked me to try to get along with him.â
Gerald frowned Sure enough, in this era, most parents would choose a rich man for their daughter.
âAt first, he was very good to me, but he always tried to trick me to spend the night with him outside. I felt that it was too fast, so I was unwilling. Later, I found out that... he was intimate with other women in the car, so I proposed to break up with him. It was the time when I met you at the bar that day,â Gigi said
