Chapter 760
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Although this woman appeared calm and collected, the subtle clenching of her hands around the hem of her dress betrayed her true sentiments.
A faint smile began to play at the corners of Rupertâs mouth.
In response to Rupertâs earlier comment, Jordan emitted a disdainful snort.
âDomenic is a good guy, but he has difficulty evaluating and hiring people.
â
Rupert, momentarily taken aback, swiftly concealed his surprise.
He proceeded to pour a fresh cup of tea for Jordan and inquired, âWhat do you mean?â
Enraged, Jordan pounded his cane on the floor.
âDomenic personally promoted Emilio, the vice president of Vitality Group.
He seemed Like a good person, but in reality, heâs a hypocrite embezzling company funds! He engages in a secret relationship with his employee and misappropriates company funds to lavish gifts on that woman!â
Emilioâs words still echoed in Jordanâs ears.
âOkay, Iâll tell the truth⦠Yes, it was indeed my doing.
I bought the necklace, gave it to Lindsey, and used the companyâs cash to pay for it.
I played hero for her once in the past, and did it again under the Vitality Group name during the accident that was on trend.
Itâs all on me, no one elseâs hands are dirty.
Iâm at your mercy now, Mr.
Walsh.
â
Emilio fell to his knees in front of Jordan and bowed to him on the cold floor as he spoke.
Jordan, fuelled by rage, sprang up from the sofa and directly stepped on Emilioâs shoulder, kicking him to the floor.
His overzealous retaliation threw him off balance, crashing back onto the sofa.
Emilio was kicked so hard by him that he lay down for a long while.
Jordan roared, âGet off! Get out of Vitality Group! Now! Donât make me break your legs and toss you into the sea as fish food!â
Emilioâs face darkened.
There was a lengthy pause before he quietly remarked, âAlright, got it.

Recalling all Emilioâs words, Jordanâs eyes, now resembling rubies, sent shivers down Caroleâs spine.
âEmilio Howard turned the whole place upside down for a woman.
Is Vitality Group his personal playground? I spared him for Domenicâs sake, or heâd be looking at a one-way ticket to disability!â
When Rupert heard this, he grimaced.
How was that possible?
Heâd schemed for eons, laying the groundwork to drag Lindsey through the mud.
Domenic was bound to jump into the fray.
If he dared to lend her a hand using his own name, Rupert aimed to exploit the situation, casting doubt on Domenic and exposing his link with Lindsey!
The talent showâs crew danced to Rupertâs tune.
His investment and resources made them act tough.
He thus utilized a lot of resources and spent a lot of money.
But now, Emilio was taking all the responsibility?!
Carole listened in silence, shrinking into the background.
Hearing this, she was down in the dumps.
Emilio was owning up to it all.
Was he trying to protect Domenic?
Fury flickered in Jordanâs eyes, and his words sliced through the air.
âIâve dealt with him for Domenic.
Emilioâs been in his shadow for ages.
If Domenic canât handle it himself, Iâll do the dirty work for him!â
