Chapter 584 Respect

The conference room tell into an eccle silence as everyone held their breath in the intense atmosphere

Gordon was helped to his feet, but the shock on his face remained.

Before he could deal with one problem, another one surfaced. He hadn’t even wrapped his head around the SAMsituation when Wesley showed up, alive and well.

All of Gordon’s plans had gone up in smoke, leaving him feeling like a pawn in Wesley’s game. He felt shock, anger, and frustration overwhelming him,

Gordon refused to accept his defeat, so he stormed up to Wesley and demanded, “Cronus, what have you done?”

How did he secure SAM? How did he get out of the ambush unscathed? How was he well and alive after the car accident?

Jodie warned. “Mr. Gordon, is that how you speak to the head of the family?”

Despite Gordon being an elder and a senior, Wesley was the head of the File family. In his presence, respect was non–negotiable. Otherwise, Wesley had the right to deal with him as he saw fit

One shareholder sensed the tension between them and stepped in to calm the situation. He pulled Gordon back with a conciliatory smile.

ot into a car accident last night and broke his leg, so Mr. Gordon is not in a good mood. Please forgive his rudeness. You’re all familles after all,” he explained to Wesley.

A broken leg

Exactly

While Cronus was perfectly fine, Barren had ended up with a broken leg

Gordon’s eyes were tinged with anger as he shoved the peacemaker aside.

He lunged at Wesley, shouting “Cronus.”

However, Marce quickly held him back

Wesley calmly watched as Gordon raged. He said, “There’s no puzzle here. Jaime realized that joining Fila Group would be best for SAM, and changed his mind. He transferred his 17% share to me. With that, I took down SAM with 48% of the share. It’s as simple as that.”

“Jaime? How could that be?” Gordon was shocked.

Everyone knew Jaime was someone who would rather break than bend. He would never willingly sell SAM.

Gordon had been keeping tabs on SAM’s shareholders and market movements. However, he never kept watch on Jaime. He believed Jaime would never betray SAM

Gordon shook his head. “I don’t believe you!”

Wesley didn’t need to explain everything to Gordon.

As Gordon pondered, a sudden realization hit him. “You’re doing this on purpose, Cronus. This is a trap!”

Wesley leaned back in his chair with his legs crossed. He said, “Why would I trick you, Uncle Gordon?”

Gordon replied,

“Because..

“Gordon! Calm down!” someone interrupted sharply.

Gordon felt as though a bolt of lightning had struck him. He instantly snapped out of his frantic emotions.

However, it was too late, and Gordon had let the cat our of the bag. Wesley would never let him off the hook.

“The reason you’re acting this way is that I didn’t die in that car accident bile you expected, right? Wesley said.

Gordon retorted, “Cronus, you need proof to accuse someone like that!”

“I don’t have to give you any proof,” Wesley retorted.

Gordon had covered his tracks meticulously. Even if Wesley suspected him, Wesley had no proof.

Wesley continued, “The police will deal with what needs to be handled.”

Gordon Instinctively asked, “What police?

“The police are here!” a woman’s voice rang out.

with the door to the conference room left open, everyone watched as a confident woman strode in. Behind her followed a team of police officers

Most of the shareholders present were members of the Filo family. They were taken aback at the sight of that woman

The shareholders disdained her superficial and flamboyant ways. Despite that, her status demanded respect. As she entered, they all stood up to greet her

“Mrs Filo,” the shareholders greeted
