to make,” shouted Willow.

Chapter 385 Counter–Attack

Everyone stared at Willow while holding their breath.

“Morrison Group wishes to stop us from expanding after all we’ve done to reach where we

are now. I’m sure everyone already knows how much we’ve sacrificed for our company’s

growth, so we can’t afford to be stopped by our opponent here!” declared Willow.

“Speak your mind, Ms. Stewart. We’ll always follow your instructions!”

“That’s right! We won’t be easy prey for Morrison Group!”

The higher–ups were all fired up.

They had been around and witnessed Southlake Corporation’s growth to their current

state, especially during the time when Willow became CEO and business skyrocketed.

They were naturally angry when Morrison Group appeared to put a halt to their

progress.

“From now on, I need all of you to work harder. Try and take turns to work overtime. We

need to stand firm against our opponent and expand into the north!”

Everyone stood up and solemnly replied, “Yes, Madam!”

No one dared to slack off now that Southlake Corporation was facing a crisis that could

potentially affect their own lives.

“Don’t worry, we have a new product that will surely dominate the market up north!

Believe in us, and believe in yourselves!” said Willow.

The crowd’s unprecedented pressure was slightly alleviated with Willow’s words.

It would seem that the CEO had plans of her own.

Suddenly, Caspian walked into the meeting room.

Everyone looked toward Caspian as he entered.

Rumors about Caspian’s hidden strength were rampant around Southlake City.

It was rumored that the Massey family’s collapse was directly related to Caspian.

Everyone was curious about why Caspian had appeared at this moment.

“It seems that my wife has forgotten about something. If Southlake Corporation manages

to stabilize themselves in the north, everyone here will receive a bonus of a hundred

million.

dollars each!” said Caspian.

The higher–ups all looked at each other in surprise.

+15 BONUS

There were around 20 higher–ups at the meeting, and a hundred million dollars each

would amount to quite a huge sum.

Caspian continued, “If we can manage to beat Morrison Group, we’ll allocate another one

and a half billion in bonus.”

Some of the higher–ups were so shocked that they almost fell off their chairs.

It was too generous for a bonus.

“Thank you, Ms. Stewart! We won’t disappoint you!”

“Thank you, Mr. Lynch! We swear to win this war for Ms. Stewart!”

The higher–ups offered their words of gratitude one after another.

Money was a very powerful tool to incentivize and encourage people to work hard.

Caspian nodded his head with satisfaction as he scanned through the motivated

employees in the room. It would be safe to say that they would not be slacking off in the

near future.

Meanwhile, Willow remained in her seat with a look of confusion.

She felt uneasy as her earlier speech was made in order to motivate her employees.

But it was obviously not as effective as Caspian’s speech.

But then again, a few billion to be issued as a bonus wasn’t a lot for Southlake

Corporation.

As long as the company could penetrate the northern market, the profit would be beyond.

mere billions.

It may well be tens of, if not hundreds, of billions of dollars.

Everyone immediately returned to their workstations and started working.

Back in the CEO’s office, Caspian and Willow were enjoying each other’s company.

“You should discuss with me before you say something so outrageous next time. If it’s too

sudden, it’ll make me look bad! I’m supposed to be the CEO here!” complained Willow.

Caspian’s sudden announcement was too much, and Willow couldn’t even react in time.

Even though it was quite an effective declaration, Willow still hoped that Caspian would

discuss things with her before making such decisions.

“I understand, honey. I won’t do it again. I’ll make sure to tell you everything,” replied.

Caspian.

“Really? Then, what’s the deal with Jyn? She came here all the way from Dhord City just to

look for you. I didn’t even know you had such a good friend from the military. I reckon she

has

lyn had already become a thom in Willow’s side.

+15 BONUS

Willow felt that a married couple should be honest and shouldn’t hold any secrets against

each other.

Caspian was her one and only husband. She trusted him with everything about herself.

Caspian, however, seemed to be keeping many secrets to himself.

Willow couldn’t help but feel aggrieved.

“About that.”

Caspian felt embarrassed and was at a loss for words.

He actually had nothing going on with Jyn.

But Willow seemed to be extremely concerned about the matter.

“There must be something between the two of you, so just tell me about it.”

She would feel bad for the rest of her life if she didn’t figure it out.

“It’s a long story.”

Caspian hugged Willow tightly and started recalling his days back in the military.

“I used to be a squad leader, and it all happened during a joint exercise back then. It was

just the usual exercise in the forest, and no one was really worried about their safety.

“That was until some criminals came out of hiding and kidnapped a few of our female

soldiers. Jyn was one of them.

“I led my team to track down the criminals and rescue the kidnapped soldiers. And from

that. point on, Jyn…”

He roughly described what happened back then.

In his opinion, rescuing Jyn was just the right thing to do. Anyone would have done the

same.

Besides, Jyn wasn’t the only one who was rescued back then. But she had latched onto

him ever since that day.

She expressed her interest in Caspian and began her efforts to court him.

“So that’s how it is! And here I thought something bad had happened between the two of

you. Jyn sure is shameless to pester you like this…

Willow believed Caspian’s words.

Then again, his actions spoke louder than words.

Suddenly, Caspian’s phone started ringing

“Hello?”

+15 BONUS

Lincoln’s voice sounded extremely urgent. “Bad news, Mr. Lynch! Someone who claims to

be from Dhord City’s TMAA is looking for you!”

“TMAA? Just tell him I’m not interested,” replied Caspian impatiently.

He wasn’t free to just meet up with any random stranger.

Right as Caspian was about to hang up, Lincoln said, “Mr. Lynch, this man’s very strong!

Our men were all defeated!”

An impatient voice suddenly interrupted Lincoln, “Get lost!

“So you’re Caspian? You have half an hour to appear in front of me, or I’ll kill all your

men!”

The stranger immediately hung up.

Caspian frowned as he wondered what kind of hooligan dared to find trouble with him.

It would seem that Lincoln was in trouble.

“What happened, hubby?” asked Willow.

Caspian smiled. “It’s nothin

don’t worry. I’m going to fix some problems, that’s all.”

“Alright.”

Willow nodded her head as she unconditionally trusted him.

Caspian kissed Willow on her forehead. “Just focus on your work, okay? I’ll always be

supporting you!”

He never really saw Morrison Group as a threat, as he could have them disappear from

Dhord City in an instant if he wanted.
