A look of disbelief appeared on Sebastian's face. He immediately got up and said, "Let's talk outside."

The rest of the people regained their composure and followed Sebastian out.

Returning to the conference room, Clint investigated the incident and updated Eudora, with some surprise in his tone.

"It's very strange. A customer who had invested a lot of money has withdrawn his funds suddenly. It's also strange that the platform is allowing the refund!"

Clint's eyes lit up at that point.

"Sebastian doesn't have enough funds to win!"

Eudora already knew that Sebastian would not win. Even without this incident, she still had other tricks up her sleeve. Therefore, when she heard Clint say that Sebastian had lost, she did not feel much.

On the contrary, she was curious about the person who had withdrawn the funds.

"What's the reason for the withdrawal? Why would the platform allow someone to

withdraw the funds so easily?"

Speaking of that, Clint's expression seemed more confused.

"The explanation given by the platform was that when the person made the transfer, he had accidentally added two extra zeros at the end. That had caused huge psychological stress on the investor which was why they proceeded with the refund."

Before Clint could finish his words, Sebastian's fierce voice sounded into the phone.

"What's wrong with the platform? How could they believe such an excuse? It's obvious that someone had done that on purpose! It's unfair. I want the platform to give me a reasonable explanation! Hello? Hello!"

The call was hung up from the other end of the line.

Sebastian threw his cell phone away, "F*ck!"

Sebastian was cursing so rudely in front of so many people. After he was done, he noticed that everyone was staring at him with their mouths agape.

Roger said hurriedly, "Sorry. Everyone is tired today. Let's go to Treasure Restaurant for a meal!"

Everyone immediately shook their heads,

"There's no need for that!"

Sebastian was hot-tempered and was easily triggered. It was possible that if they agreed to go to the restaurant, he would suggest something illegal to them.

There was no such thing as a free lunch. All of them naturally understood that saying.

Roger did not give up and wanted to continue talking. However, Eudora smiled and said, "Mr. Granger, let's check the accounts now!"

Sebastian gritted his teeth, "I've won. I'm not agreeing to checking the accounts now! We've checked them just now! It has been verified!"

Eudora smiled and said, "Although it's been verified, have you forgotten? Just now, it was just the verification of the transactions. Now, it's time to check the accounts!" Sebastian's face darkened, "Are you trying to trick me?"

Eudora shook her head, "I don't dare to. I'm just telling the truth."

Hearing that, Clint immediately ordered, "Let's begin checking!"

"I won't allow it!" Sebastian rushed forwards again and tried to stop the two men.

"I'm now the president of Valiant East. I've said no which means no. Who dares to still

check it?"

"We do!" Nick suddenly said.

Sebastian was stunned and looked back at Nick, who was suddenly betraying him, "What did you just say?"

Nick went to the front with the other shareholders and said, "We want it done! We are the shareholders of the company, and we have the right to decide the future of the company! We do not agree with you being the president. Therefore, we're requesting for the accounts to be checked immediately."

Roger was stunned, "Everyone, what's going on? Why has it become like this all of a sudden? If there are any problems, let's discuss it!"

Nick bowed his head with shame and said, "Mrs. Granger is right. We should never forget our roots and should instead take one step at a time. Back then, when my father handed over the company's affairs to me, he had told me that a man must have his limits. No matter what, a bottom line signifies one's morals. Without limits, they'll be close to destruction."

"We've watched Valiant East grow and develop to what it is today. Now that this has happened, we will not accept this!"

"Yes, we can't accept this. We want the

accounts to be checked and the company's situation to be announced!"

"I second that!"

Looking at the righteous looks on their faces, Roger thought of the villas he had given to them. He could not help but scold them in his heart. However, he could not show it on his face. He could only try to persuade them.

"Everyone, please think it over."

However, since they had already voiced their opinions, they had already made up their minds. There was no more room to turn things around.

Seeing that the situation was going out of control, Sebastian quickly stepped forward.

He threatened them in a low voice, "If you all want to go down together, then give it a try."

Several shareholders hesitated for a moment. Eudora suddenly said, "What do you mean by going down together? Are there some secrets between you all?"

After being pointed out by Eudora, everyone began to think of the possibilities.

These people cared about their reputation the most. How could they stand being threatened? If they were to back down because of Sebastian's warning, it would be

equivalent to them admitting that they had done something shameful.

They immediately straightened their necks and said, "We are the shareholders of Valiant East. We haven't done anything wrong to the company, so naturally we don't feel remorse. Valiant East Catering is the core of the company. Now that it has turned out like this, someone has to take responsibility for it. What's wrong with our request to check the accounts?"

As the shareholders had all betrayed Sebastian and Roger, they immediately surrendered.

Although Sebastian was fierce, he could not go against so many people.

In the end, the accounts had to be reexamined. The difference from the agreed amount from the bet with Eudora was only one thousand dollars.

It was only one thousand dollars! So exact that it was as if it had been arranged by someone.

If the difference was bigger, Sebastian would not have been so angry. Just because of one thousand dollars, he had lost the presidency of the company. He was so furious that he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

Roger shouted, "Call an ambulance, quick!"

Just as he finished his words, a policeman came in and showed his identification to Sebastian.

"We've received a report. Mr. Sebastian is being suspected of kidnapping and blackmailing. Please come with us to the police station to assist in the investigation."

Roger was stunned, "Kidnapping and blackmailing? We haven't done that. This is all a misunderstanding!"

"We'll know whether it's a misunderstanding or not after the investigation! We'll talk about other things after that."

With a click, the policeman cuffed Sebastian. Soon, the father and son both disappeared from the conference room.

After the incident, Clint sent away all the reporters. Soon, the only people left in the conference room were Eudora and some shareholders.

The facial expressions on the shareholders' faces were interesting.

In the end, it was Nick who stood up and said, "Mrs. Granger, since the matter has been settled, from now onwards, you'll take over as the president of Valiant East. As for the rest, let's talk about it by having a discussion! What do you think?"

Eudora smiled faintly and said, "No! I'm not interested in the position. Valiant East doesn't belong to me. People may say that I have used Amos. I won't intervene in the affairs of Valiant East. I'll leave it to you shareholders!"

After that, Eudora turned around and left.

The rest of the people looked at each other in dismay.

"If she's leaving like this, what should we do with this mess?"
