Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Eradicating the Roots
President Fuller shivered all over, sweat pouring down his face, "Y-yes."
Chairman Halloway didn’t know that President Fuller had personally negotiated the cooperation and expressed regret, "It’s a pity President Vaughn wasn’t interested in cooperating at the time... If ever you consider cooperation again, please do keep Ansel in mind."
Upon hearing this, Ann Vaughn confirmed that Chairman Halloway was unaware of the despicable things President Fuller had done.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t mention cooperation so openly.
"So this is what President Fuller told Chairman Halloway?" A look of surprise and astonishment appeared on Ann Vaughn’s pretty face as she glanced at the trembling President Fuller with an enigmatic smile.
Someone capable of holding the position of chairman is certainly no naive fool.
Chairman Halloway detected an underlying message in Ann Vaughn’s words, immediately frowned, and asked President Fuller, "Didn’t you say President Vaughn refused to cooperate with us and wanted to wait for another opportunity? What is really going on?"
"Chai...Chairman, I..."
"Chairman Halloway misunderstood. President Fuller was right, it was I who refused to cooperate with Ansel."
Hearing Ann Vaughn’s words, President Fuller’s face lit up with joy and he nodded vigorously.
After all, he was the general manager of Ansel; if this woman offended him, she wouldn’t have an easy time in The Imperial Capital.
Smart move!
However, before Chairman Halloway’s expression could regain composure, Ann Vaughn continued, "The main reason I disagreed with President Fuller’s idea of dividing special medicine into parts and exploiting slow patient recovery for profit."
"I sincerely wish to collaborate with your company, but President Fuller seems to belittle women, boasting to buy me out..." With that, Ann Vaughn gave President Fuller a contemptuous look, "Are you worthy?"
Upon hearing Ann Vaughn’s words, Chairman Halloway’s face grew increasingly grim, and he even slapped President Fuller right across the face!
The slap resounded loudly,
"Bastard! You stole the job from the vice president, and well, do it right, but hear what you’ve done?!" Chairman Halloway scolded furiously.
Seeing the Vaughn Clinic’s prospects, and wanting to cooperate initially stemmed from Chairman Halloway himself.
This task was initially delegated to the vice president, a rank lower than President Fuller.
President Fuller taking over didn’t bother Chairman Halloway much, as competition motivates subordinates to be driven and aspiring.
Who knew this fool not only lost the cooperation but offended them to the death!
Ostensibly, Ann Vaughn was merely the president of the Imperial Glory Branch, but Chairman Halloway had long received news that the undisclosed owner holding the majority of Imperial Glory’s shares was indeed her!
President Fuller, after receiving such a heavy slap, was already crying uncontrollably, wishing he could kneel, "Chairman, I’m wrong, it’s all my fault, please calm down!"
Many people’s attention at the venue was drawn to the commotion, eagerly munching on the drama.
Suddenly, the sound of chimes echoed continuously.
Everyone present heard their phones buzzing and took them out to check.
"What the hell?!"
"Always suspected President Fuller of Ansel lacked character, but didn’t imagine he’d be such a beastly dog!"
"So damn disgusting, a pedophile! How could he?!"
"A single rat’s turd spoiling the whole pot of porridge, he’s degrading the industry’s image!"
Whispers filled the venue, casting disdainful and repulsed glances at President Fuller like observing a pile of garbage.
Huh?
Ann Vaughn was puzzled by the sudden comments from the guests, as the drama she arranged hadn’t kicked off yet.
It seemed to start after they checked their phones...
"Sorry, what are you looking at?" Ann Vaughn curiously asked a lady nearby.
The lady didn’t mind, directly showing her phone to Ann Vaughn, "Look, not sure who sent this to our phones, seems like everyone here received it."
Ann Vaughn focused her eyes, seeing a video displayed.
The evidence was even more detailed than the document Cian gave her.
It was imaginable what punishment this disgrace would face if this video got leaked—
Just as this thought finished, the banquet hall’s doors suddenly opened, and several officers in patrol uniforms entered, confirmed the location, and headed straight for President Fuller.
In less than five minutes, President Fuller was arrested and escorted out, and the venue was filled with hissing sounds.
They had just received the video, and the efficiency with which the patrol officers arrived was astonishing.
Meanwhile, completely stunned, Chairman Halloway nearly fainted after looking at his secretary’s phone, struggling to remain standing.
Fearing he might collapse, the secretary quickly summoned bodyguards to escort Chairman Halloway away.
Ann Vaughn was equally shocked.
The show she prepared hadn’t even started before President Fuller’s beastly mask was exposed and arrested.
Making her suspect someone was stirring things behind the scenes.
Was it Cyrus Hawthorne?
Simultaneously.
Far away in the child’s room of Villa No. 8’s third floor.
The sound of typing finally stopped, a small figure at a little desk turned the chair and leaned back comfortably.
The computer screen still displayed the business banquet’s surveillance footage, message alerts appearing at the lower right corner incessantly.
Kenny ignored those messages, only switching off the surveillance once President Fuller was captured, erasing all traces and leaving.
Getting revenge, after all, shouldn’t dirty his mommy’s hands.
He handled it sufficiently.
Once those videos emerged, tomorrow’s news reports would lead to President Fuller’s complete ruin, even if he were released from prison in the future, The Imperial Capital would not have a place for him.
Thus Kenny ensured everyone received a copy of those videos, cutting weeds without leaving a chance for recovery.
However... Judging by how swiftly the patrol officers reached the hotel, The Archfiend won’t let him have any opportunity to leave prison.
Daring to drug his mommy...
Ha.
The computer screen’s glow reflected on Kenny’s face, highlighting the coldness in his beautiful big eyes, sharply contrasting with his soft and cute appearance.
...
Due to President Fuller’s arrest and the atrocious acts he committed, the banquet scene stirred varied debates, which quickly shifted to focus on the belated arrival of the Crawford father and son.
"Isn’t the Young Master of the Crawford Family on the verge of death? The Crawford Group’s stocks plummeted recently... Tsk tsk, unbearable sight."
"You’re kidding, right? Someone near death can appear so vibrant, looking so vigorous?"
"No lie, everyone knows Keith Crawford had cancer, I thought he was long gone..."
The shock at the arrival of the Crawford father and son wasn’t felt by just a few.
Especially seeing Keith Crawford filled with vitality, it was even more unbelievable.
Keith Crawford’s suffering from terminal illness and his nearing demise was widely known within the circle, not baseless hearsay, or else the Crawford Family wouldn’t have let the stocks plunge without action.
