Never Late, Never Away Chapter 424
As long as he doesn't ask and his wife doesn't tell him, everything would turn out fine. I willsuccessfully receive my cash reward for it too.
“I understand.” Finnick nodded and thanked the doctor, “Thank you.”
“No problem. In the meantime, take good care of your wife. When you are, you can take her out fora walk to lift her spirits. It is not a bad thing for her to forget about it either. After all, rememberingit might haunt her instead.”
“That is true.” Finnick thanked the doctor again before he left the office.
Seeing Finnick walk out of the office, the doctor thumped his chest and let out a sigh of relief. Hehas an abnormally strong aura. No matter how many times I look at him, I still get intimidated by hisgaze.
Luckily, he still seems fooled by me since he is out of sorts and worried for his wife.
After they left, Noah still felt uneasy about the doctor's words. He worriedly asked Finnick, “Mr.Norton, is Mrs. Norton's condition normal? Otherwise, should we look for another doctor to checkon her? If anything is wrong...”
“No need for that,” Finnick stopped him. He did not want another doctor to examine her because ofthat matter again. On the one hand, he was afraid it might trigger her. On the other hand, he didnot want people to gossip about it.
“Don't bring this up again. We will pretend that none of that happened,” Finnick ordered.
“Okay.” As a man himself, he somewhat understood where Finnick was coming from
"What were you saying about the board of directors earlier?” Finnick recalled what Noah first saidwhen he left the ward.
“The board of directors are in the meeting room, and they are making a big fuss. They want you tomeet them and give them an explanation,” his personal assistant explained.
Finnick already saw it coming. After such a big incident, the board of directors would not easily lethimself off. Therefore, he quickly headed back to the office with Noah.
Once they entered the building, Finnick could feel the tense aura hanging in the air.
Everyone in the office seemed startled and were not as professional as before. They were forminggroups and gossiping. Especially with his arrival, instead of dispersing, they started whispering moreanimatedly among themselves.
"What's going on?” Frowning, Finnick turned to Noah for an answer.
“Mr. Norton, the leak in Finnor Group's customers’ information had been exposed online. Now, theinternet and newspapers are all reporting about it, and we could not stop it. I guess everyone in theoffice heard about it. They must be worried about the company’s situation and are unable toconcentrate on their work,” Noah accounted.
At first, he tried to hide the matter from the employees since it was important to put their minds atease. Unfortunately, the news spread like wildfire on the internet. Before he could take anymeasures against it, the employees already found out what happened.
“The board of directors merely watched the employees react like so and did nothing about it?”Finnick was annoyed. In such a situation, did no one step up to manage it?
Noah helplessly replied, “Well, all of them were arguing in the meeting room, and they would notlisten to me. When the employees saw them arguing, they panicked. Rumors about Finnor Groupgoing bankrupt suddenly began to spread, and some are even preparing to transfer companiesnow.”
“Nonsense!” Finnick picked up his pace. “These people are tyrants.”
While waiting for the elevator, he noticed that the employees were staring intensely at him. Aftersome thought, he turned to walk towards them
“Mr. Norton, the directors are waiting for you,” Noah quickly reminded, unsure of what his boss wastrying to do.
“Then, let them wait. Meanwhile, can you bring me a microphone?” With that, Finnick headed to theemployees’ workspace.
“Okay.” Noah immediately took the hint and acted accordingly.
When they saw Finnick walking towards them, the employees stopped talking and fell silent.Moving to the centre of the space, Finnick announced, “Everyone, please return to your seats. I wantto address the matter.”
