Chapter 361 Abundant Gratefulness

Toto could feel its companion’s fear and barked at Xavia. It sounded rather fierce, which lured Joseph

out.

Guilt flashed across Xavia’s face. “I accidentally stepped on Oreo’s tail, so Toto thinks I’m bullying

Oreo.”

Joseph did not take it to heart. After all, Toto always barked recklessly. It was usually free and had

nothing to do. It just needed a good beating.

That trip to Docwood was to handle some trivial affairs of the Whitman Group. Jonathan knew that

Joseph would come today, so he waited anxiously. At eleven o’clock in the morning, Joseph arrived at

Docwood. All the executives came out to welcome him.

Jonathan walked over earnestly. “Joe, here you are.”

Joseph threw the former a sidelong glance but ignored him. Being ignored in front of people, Jonathan

opened his mouth slightly to say something to retrieve his dignity but Joseph gave him no such chance,

ordering Lucas to call the finance manager.

Hearing this, Jonathan became nervous. He followed Joseph and begged, “Joe, I just failed a few

times. Don’t scold me in front of outsiders. Our family will be embarrassed.”

Joseph glared at Jonathan fiercely. “You should know better than to invest wildly if you don’t want to be

embarrassed.”

“We all learn from our mistakes. I’m now learning the basics of future profits.”

“You don’t have such capability.” Joseph did not do Jonathan the favor at all. If Jonathan could make a

profit, he would have done that long ago.

The director of the finance department was an idiot too. He made trouble with Jonathan by spending

extravagantly.

Jonathan was reluctant to give in. “Joe, I’m your cousin. You can’t say that about me. When you were

working hard abroad, my father and I supported the Whitman Group. You should thank us.”

Ding!

As the doors of the elevator slid open, Joseph narrowed his eyes and emitted a terrifying aura. Lucas

knew that Joseph had been in a bad mood recently, so he inevitably retreated and dodged to the side.

Suddenly, Joseph kicked Jonathan into the elevator. He then cracked a cold sneer and revealed his

white teeth. “How should I thank you? Should I kneel before you guys? Or should I thank you for

ruining the millions I subsidized?”

Jonathan, who fell on the floor, held his aching hips. He was struck dumb on the spot, glaring at Joseph

with a wide-eyed gaze. He was engulfed in fear.

“Or should I thank you for rejoicing secretly after my father passed away?” Joseph leaned over a bit

and slapped Jonathan several times. It appeared like he did not exert himself, but

Jonathan’s face became red and swollen. “Hmm? Tell me. How should I thank you?”

“No, you don’t have to thank us. Joe, we’re family.”

Joseph savored the word in his mouth and scoffed. “Family…”

Yes, they were a family. They fought and schemed against him, hoping that he would die.

As the person in power within the Whitman Group, Joseph kicked Jonathan out of the board of

directors, making him an administrative director who held no power. As for the finance manager who let

Jonathan act wilfully, he was fired. Joseph then put his man on that post.

Octavia went to Harold to complain about it with Jonathan during the birthday party at night.” Dad, Joe

is out of the line. He’s not the only one who owns the Whitman Group. Jon has some shares too. Even

if he is to withdraw from the board, we need everyone’s vote to decide on that.” Her face distorted with

the overwhelming indignation she felt.

Similarly, Preston said seriously, “That’s right. Joe even hit Jon. He’s out of the line.”

Harold was in a good mood at first but now it was ruined. He glanced at Octavia disdainfully.” Why

didn’t you say this when you were investing? Jon should pay the price after making a mistake. You’re a

grown-up, so don’t you know that?”
