Chapter 466 Compared to the vibrant and spirited manner in which Grelle had entered, her departure was starkly different. Barely had her front foot crossed the threshold of the grand door when she could faintly hear the murmurs of the servants conversing behind her.
"Hurry up and clean up. Don't leave a single footprint." "Does it have to be disinfected?" "Definitely." As the conversation faded, Grelle stood where she was. Her face was filled with embarrassment.
'I've put in so much effort, but in the end, is this how I'm treated? Grelle bit her lip, a mix of resentment and grievance surging in her heart.
Then she made a decision. She wasn't leaving and was going to stay at the door of Royal Bay until Richard returned and see her love.
On the top floor of Royal Tower, the floor-to-ceiling windows on all four sides shone brightly.
In the clean, tidy, and luxurious CEO's office, Richard was sitting lazily on a leather chair. He was wearing a well- ironed and expensive custom-made suit. His every move was noble and elegant, and he exuded a forbidden aura. He was cold and charming.
However, such a perfect face was shockingly horrible at this moment. There was even a cold glint in his dark and deep eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the huge CEO's office, the atmosphere was oppressive as if a storm was coming.
Tyrone put down all the documents with trepidation. He tried his best to stabilize his trembling breath and said, "Mr. Hampton, these are all documents that you have to sign personally..." "Put it down and get out." Richard's voice was so calm. It was filled with indifference that seeped into the bones. Tyrone immediately put down the documents and left the office quickly.
The glass door closed, and there were three other people standing in front of the desk, Sidney, Garry, and John. The atmosphere froze for a moment. In the end, Garry said aggrievedly, "Richard, during the few days you were asleep, I was the one who took care of the company's matters. Even if I didn't make any contributions, I worked hard. I don't have to be punished, right?" "What do you think?" Richard glanced at him with a faint smile.
Obviously, Garry couldn't. He immediately shut up and did not dare to speak again. However, his hand behind his back secretly poked Sidney's waist as if he wanted Sidney to say something.
Sidney was annoyed and could not help but roll his eyes. Can't He tell what's going on? A horrible man who has been asleep for a few days now wants to settle scores with us. Would I dare to stand out at a tlike this?' Sidney rolled his eyes at Garry. The so-called brotherhood is so fragile.' In the end, John stood up and nodded. “Mr. Hampton, it's my fault." A few days ago, the engagement party that had stirred the entire city was a spectacle that captured everyone's attention, To Chapter 466 ensure utmost security, numerous personnel were deployed for layered protection and vigilance.
Roads were blocked and hotels were closed. He had thought that nothing would go wrong but did not expect something to go wrong.
John lowered his head even lower and said in a low voice, "Mr. Hampton, it's my fault for not protecting you well. I'll accept my punishment." Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, a document fell beside his feet.
Richard's eyes were cold, and the corners of his eyes were dyed with endless hostility. "You were wrong. You were wrong to make the decision and terminate the contract with the Kelley family. You were wrong to let others suppress the Kelley family! John, how dare you." "Mr. Hampton, I..." John looked up and saw the document that was thrown at his feet. It was a report from one of his subordinates, calling from Royal Bay, inquiring about how to proceed with their collaborations with the Kelley family following the assassination attempt at the engagement party.
At that time, he was filled with anger, so he said that he would cancel the collaboration.
It was precisely because of this that the other old foxes in the business world began to follow the trend and suppress the Kelley family. The Kelley Group's stock prices plummeted, and the losses were huge.
The others thought that Richard was the one who wanted to cancel the collaboration. In an instant, the Kelley family becthe target of public criticism. Other than the loss of the company's stock price, the Intewas filled with criticism of Tiffany. It was as unpleasant as it could get...
Speople even threw trash and stones at the Cedar Ridge Villa from tto time.
Not only had the window been broken several times, but a servant from the Kelley family had been injured the day before yesterday...
'Doesn't Tiffany deserve all of this? If she wasn't ruthless and fickle, why would the entire the Kelley family be implicated?' John raised his head and replied stubbornly, “I didn't do anything wrong." It was his fault for not protecting Richard well. However, in this matter, he felt that it was not satisfying at all. He refused to admit this mistake.
Richard slowly got up from his seat. Two of the collars of his high-end shirt had been undone. He was unruly and lazy. However, this indifference was accompanied by a huge killing intent.
A gust of wind blew, and John flew out without warning, hitting the tempered glass behind him with a bang! Richard ordered, "Get out and go to the darkroom to receive your punishment." "Yes." John struggled to get up from the floor. There was blood in his mouth.

The room was filled with murderous intent. Richard's face was terrifyingly gloomy. "Another fifty lashes." "Yes." John nodded and left respectfully.
In the office, Sidney and Garry looked at each other. They originally wanted to plead for leniency, but what that blockhead John said added fuel to the fire. If they pleaded for leniency, it would probably backfire.
Chapter 466 The two of them hesitated for a moment and finally decided not to say anything.
This was the first tRichard was so angry. If John was not someone close to him, he would have died based on his decisions.
Garry's heart was pounding. He suddenly remembered that he was the one who had been managing the company for the past few days, so John's decisions were actually tacitly approved by him...
With this thought in mind, he saw Richard's sharp gaze sweep toward him.
"I'll get my punishment myself!" Garry ran as soon as he finished speaking, afraid that he would delf he was a step late. Sidney could not even hold Garry back. He watched as this disloyal man instantly disappeared. Hence, he and Richard were the only ones left in the office. In the end, he managed to withstand everything alone.
Sidney secretly sighed and said, "Actually, I think John's worries are reasonable. Do you know how m serious your injuries were? Even I was helpless. If it wasn't for Grelle from Melvor Mountain Village who sent the medicine over, you would have died!"
Richard let out a cold laugh from his throat. His eyes were emotionless, emitting a coldness that seeped into the bones. "Do you think that the reason why I woke up and my wound healed so well was entirely because of the medicine?" "Wasn't it?" Sidney was stunned, his face full of confusion.
He had seen it with his own eyes. If it weren't for Grelle's medicine, Richard might not have woken up.
