Chapter 149 At Daggers Drawn

When Monday arrived, I had many matters to handle and people to meet. When I reached

my office, I noticed how quiet it was I even wondered if I had got off on the wrong floor

Despite the dark circles around his eyes. Josh knocked and entered my office with a smile.

“Ms. Chloe,

will the meeting start on time today?”

“Of course, why wouldn’t it be?” I replied while observing his expression. I couldn’t help

but wonder why he

was so excited

He said. “Great, then I’ll inform the rest

demanding I settle

accounts today

Before the meeting I invited Adrian to come. After taking over Tanum Corporation, I signed

engagement agreement with him. He was my personal lawyer and the company’s legal

counsel.

Josh was presiding over the meeting trying to ease the tension among the crowd. When he

saw me, he

introduced me to those present. I glanced at the people in the room, who looked like they

were glaring at

a common enemy.

retorted, staring at the person speaking.

He shouted at me, “What did you say?! Can’t you see we can’t keep tossing the ball back

taken over,

settle the accounts and stop wasting our time!”

The others chimed in like clowns, and I felt like I was in a circus. Meanwhile, Josh carefully

assessed the

situation styly.

After another rude man finished insulting me, I couldn’t take it any longer. I slammed the

table and stood

up to glare at them. Even my employees were shocked.

Do you think I’m a pushover?! You’ve been dealing with Matthew in everything, yet you

come to collect

debts from me?! I pointed at Josh. Either he didn’t explain things well enough, or you

thought I was an

easy target.

Tve been in this business for a long time and uphold integrity and commitment. However,

that’s only for

My sudden retaliation shocked everyone, and they exchanged puzzled glances.

“I thought I could still work with all of you by reclaiming Tanum Corporation. I never

expected such misconduct from you. I do not associate with individuals who have skewed

values.”

Unable to bear the situation, someone became furious and questioned me, “What do you

mean?!”

Facing the standoff, I knew no one would leave this meeting room if I didn’t acknowledge

their claims
