Chapter 27
"What?" Elliot was stunned. For a moment, he didn't know what the new chairman was trying to tell
him. He answered, walking on eggshells, "Yes, this is true. But, actually, I was just joking with the Scott
Family. I didn't really want them to send a beauty for me..." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Elliot had been observing Tom's expression, being extremely nervous and uneasy. He was increasingly
aware that the young chairman was so unpredictable. He secretly lent 20 million dollars to the Scott
Family in private. The news did not spread, and the new chairman actually knew it. This showed that
the new chairman really knew a thing or two.
Bang!
Tom suddenly launched an attack. He slapped the table, which scared Elliot into shivering and falling to
the ground. "Elliot! How dare you!"
"Chchchchchch... Chairman..." Elliot was so scared that his face turned pale. He was all of a tremble,
being in dread of him. "I was wrong. I was wrong! I beg your mercy!"
Tom stared at Elliot coldly. "Okay, then tell me what you did wrong."
"I... I..." Elliot's lips trembled as his mind was in a mess. He couldn't tell what he did wrong for a
moment. Yeah, why was he wrong? The Scott Family was just a small family. They didn't run the family
well in the past two years, losing a lot of money. The Scott Family was just a stray dog. Even if he had
actually fucked a beauty from the Scott Family and hadn't pay for it, it just seemed all right.
"Can't you tell it?" Tom's eyes grew colder.
Elliot felt the increasing pressure from Tom. His forehead was sweating crazily, and he was even about
to cry. He couldn't tell the reason, so he could only slap himself desperately and kept yelling that he
was wrong.
Tom waited until he slapped himself a dozen times, and his face became a swollen ass. He then said,
"That's enough. Stop your lame performance."
When Elliot stopped, he continued, "I know what's on your mind. The Scott Family is small, owning a
small company. Even if you have slept with Phoebe and then cheat them, refusing to borrow them
money, the Scott Family can't do anything to you. You can do whatever you want. Did I get you right?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Chairman, you are observant and intelligent. You said everything right. I'm wrong!" Elliot
nodded like a rice pecker, more in awe of Tom. What the hell? The new chairman is not an ordinary
person at all. He actually knew his little secret immediately.
Tom stared at Elliot, being exasperated at his failure, and said, "Elliot, you have been in the workplace
for many years. Are you still that simple-minded? Scott Family is small, that's true. If you break your
promise, they really can't do anything about you. But, don't forget, you live in the information age now.
When the media start to work, it's easy to spread this news everywhere! And you are my general
manager of ZQ. Once there is a scandal in our company, it will have a huge impact on our reputation!
Can you be responsible for the decline of the market value? Huh?!"
Every word of Tom's stabbed Elliot in his face, turning it pale. "Chairman, I'm going to reject Phoebe
now! I promise I won't hurt ZQ's reputation."
"Yes." Tom nodded. At this time, Tom received a message. His phone screen lit up. The screensaver
was a photo of Phoebe. Elliot happened to see it. He was stunned for a moment. Why did this girl look
so familiar?
"I don't mind if you agree to lend money to the Scott Family or not. But you should remember, wipe out
your prurience towards Phoebe, understand?" Tom frowned.
"I promise!" Elliot nodded hard. When Tom left the conference room, Elliot finally relaxed and broke out
in a cold sweat. The new chairman was too intimidating.
When he began to breathe more easily, he slowly calmed down, started to sort out what had happened
just now. After the new chairman's meeting, he was specially asked to stay. This meant that this matter
was extremely important to the new chairman.
But to be honest, this was not a big deal. First of all, the problem of affecting the company's reputation
that the new chairman had said was untenable. The Scott Family was small and weak. Even if they
hired the media staff, they could not compete with the media power that he had. Not to mention that the
evidence was hard to collect. With Elliot's insidious means, he could completely blame his victim and
charge the Scott Family with slander. By then, the Scott Family would even lose more.
Therefore, it was illogical for the new chairman to rebuke him for this. After their conversation, he did
not think that the new chairman was mediocre. The new chairman must have some deep meaning in
doing this! As a veteran in the workplace, it's a necessary skill to elicit the boss' mind by careful study.
So why did the new chairman do this? Censure him in order to establish his own prestige?
Suddenly, he had sudden enlightenment. He knew it!
It was because of Phoebe, the beautiful woman sent by the Scott Family.
Elliot remembered everything. It was Phoebe who was on the new chairman's screensaver, wasn't it?
The new chairman used Phoebe's photo as his screensaver, knew Phoebe's name, warned him, and
ordered him to wipe out his prurience towards Phoebe. It was obvious that Phoebe was the new
chairman's type!
Put everything together, and Elliot figured it out...
The new chairman was obviously interested in Phoebe, but Phoebe was already married. As a
chairman, it was unethical to directly rip her over. That's why the chairman knew that he had used 20
million dollars as a gimmick to threaten Phoebe to sleep with him. Only then did the new chairman fly
into a rage!
The more Elliot thought about it, the clearer his mind became and the more excited he was!
The new chairman just reprimanded him like this to imply that he should know how to do it. Otherwise,
the new chairman would have asked him to just cut it out. Why did he only emphasize the woman
Phoebe?
Now, it was him who was on the stage.
After sorting it through, Elliot was extremely excited, making a pig's cry. If he succeeded in fawning on
the new chairman this time, wouldn't his pay rise be a matter of certainty?
Tom did not know that Elliot had misinterpreted his meaning. Now he returned to his office, closed the
door, and walked back and forth with undisguisable excitement.
After four years of hardship, he finally returned to his peak and owned such a big company.
This feeling of recovering all that was lost was really wonderful!
Now that he was the chairman, he had to look like the chairman. At least in ZQ, he couldn't wear his
sloppy clothes bought at the stall. He asked his assistant to buy a few suits and plain clothes, which
cost hundreds of thousands dollars.
After having dinner in the company, he was a little tired. He prepared to take a rest, going back to the
Scott Family after he woke up.
There was a separate room in his office with a bed more than two meters wide. It was very
comfortable. He lay in it and soon fell asleep.
At the same time, Phoebe also came out of the house. To fulfill the task, she specially put on exquisite
makeup and wore a sheath dress, which perfectly outlined her sexy figure. At the first glance, she could
arise any man's sexual desire.
She was attractive tonight, but her face was cold, like a walking corpse without a soul.
"Phoebe, I know you have suffered a lot from injustice because of this. When you succeed, all of the
family will appreciate your efforts!"
"Yes, our Scott Family is in trouble now. We are facing a dangerous situation. You are the most
gorgeous woman in our Scott Family. Only you can help."
"Three days will pass quickly. You don't have to worry. Besides, it's not a shame. Mr. Cook is the
general manager of the ZQ Media. He owns a fortune of more than 100 million dollars. He was an able,
rich and virtuous boss. If you become his woman, you will be treated several times better, compared
with that loser Tom!"
Before she left, many of the Scott Family were talking hypocritically to comfort Phoebe.
Suddenly, someone remembered and asked curiously, "By the way, where's Tom? Where did he go?"
