Chapter 1365
A Life Debt Repaid
Sam said, âIâll come up with something.
Peter looked up at Sam in disbelief, though he was not at all convinced that Sam could come up with a solution. The man never even took any notice of Saunderia when things were going smoothly!
Now that it was a mess, Peter was never going to believe that Sam would shape up and take the reins, let alone have what it takes.
Nonetheless, Quinn spoke up just then. âThank you. Now that we understand the specifics, let us have some time to resolve the issue. You can get back to work for now.â
She naturally could tell that Peter was belittling Sam and had no faith in the man. She therefore quickly sent Peter away-who knew if his attitude would provoke Sam.
With Samâs fiery temper, he might just let loose once things went south. Moreover, they were in the middle of a crisis and naturally should cater to him.
As Peter left worriedly, Quinn turned to Sam. âSo our most pressing issue is capital and then the censure of our core technology. You could ask John for some ideas.â
âYeah.â Sam nodded.
He certainly knew nothing about business at the moment and needed Johnâs help⦠only to remember something else when he whipped out his phone. âBy the way, isnât he still on his honeymoon?â
âAhâ¦â Quinn realized with a startâthat seemed to be the case.
âWhatever. Iâd be eating dirt by the time he comes back.â Sam snorted and made the call without hesitation.
The dialing tone lasted for a while before John answered with a tired voice, and Sam glanced at a clock to see that it was already half past ten in the morning.
He could not help teasing just then, âTough day, huh, Johnny? Sounding exhausted at this hour?â
âWhat is it?â John offered no explanation, but his voice was so hoarse anyone would get funny ideas.
âMy familyâs in trouble.â Sam, however, dove straight to the point as well.
âWhat?â Johnâs tone in turn became serious.
Sam quickly gave him a rundown on Saunderiaâs current situation, and Quinn added further details when necessary.
âThe priority is to restore capital flow,â John said bluntly after they were finished. âThough thatâs still the short term priority-the real issue is Saunderiaâs core technology.â
âFirst of all, find out if there are actual problems or if itâs deliberate slander or speculations that took root. Then, you should tailor the solution according to said issue. If there never were problems, get international specialists to verify the tech and prove your innocence.â
âIf there are problems, however, you have to fix everything without worrying about the losses or there would be more issues to look forward to. Your fatherâs collapse wouldâve sent Saunderia spiraling into internal discord as well, so you need to keep everyone in line and ensure that operations are running smoothly. If they donât, the company would still collapse if you resolve your tech issues.â
âAlso, the number of people in an organization would mean there are that many people thinking for themselves. Thereâs no telling when someone would use the chaos to their benefit, so that must be avoided at all costs. Any company needs to be stable internally before they tackle external issues.â
âOkay.â Sam nodded, having complete faith in John.
âGive me a week-lâll resolve your capital issues for now,â John added. âDo as I tell you for the other matters, and call me any time youâre having trouble.â
âWell, when are you coming back?â Sam asked-the man was gone for almost two weeks now and not showing any inclination of returning.
âItâs still too early to say.â
âPlanning to conceive a second child first?â
ââ¦Maybe.â John admitted to it openly.
âYouâre not exactly young, brother,â Sam joked. âShow some restraint.â
âYou take care of yourself too.â John chuckled. âIâd rather not see you in the dirt when I get back.â
With that, they hung up.
