Chapter 0120
“Miss Chesire, have you made up your mind?”
Hugo looked at Amber’s pale face. He turned and sat down on the couch, crossing his legs smugly.
“Rectification, mandatory rectification, or revocation of licenses. You pick.”
Amber bit her lip as tears stung her eyes.
There was no way she could make a choice. The company was not stable yet. It
could not suffer another blow!
“What? Are you not going to choose?” Hugo smirked maliciously. “Since you won’t
be choosing, I’ll make the decision on your behalf. From today onward, New Chesire
Group will…”
“You’re just a lowly staff member!” a voice interrupted Hugo. “You don’t get to call the shots in New
Chesire Group!”
Loud footsteps rang out, accompanied by the young man’s calm voice. “Mister Jean,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtisn’t it? Go back to where you came from. It’s still not too late!”
Everyone looked at the door in unison.
It was Alexander.
He strode into the office and went up to Amber without even looking at Hugo and
the others. He smiled. “Don’t let this trouble you. They don’t matter at all.”
They did not matter?
Before Amber could say anything, Hugo noticed the Head of Security tag on
Alexander’s chest. He sneered. “Look at this little boy, trying to fit in with one of the
big boys. We’re the Food and Drug Administration. You’re just a lowly Head of
Security. Who do you think you are?”
Alexander raised an eyebrow.
Was Hugo trying to get himself killed?

“Alexander, calm down!” Alarmed, Amber quickly tugged Alexander’s arm and shook her head. “The
Food and Drug Administration is mad powerful. If we offend
Mister Jean, our company will be finished!”
“Hahaha!” Hugo sneered condescendingly. “Did you hear that, boy? The livelihood of the company is in
my hands! If you don’t want the company to shut down, you’ll apologize to me right away! You said that
we don’t matter, right? You take that back!”
Alexander laughed.
He was just a lowly Deputy Director, yet he was being so smug. Hilarious!
“New Chesire Group used to be Severn Group. Its net worth is over billions.”
Alexander looked at Hugo and said calmly, “The fate of a company of this magnitude can’t be decided
by a manager. If you want to put sanctions on New Chesire Group, you’d at least have to get someone
of a higher rank. Mister Jean, may I ask who’s this higher–ranking person backing you up?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHugo raised an eyebrow and whistled. “Who knew you understood all these? Fine!
I’ll tell you right now. The person imposing sanctions on the New Chesire Group is
our Director of the Regulatory Division, Ethan Burke!”
A director had to be a high enough rank.
In a city like Ol‘ Mare, the director was powerful enough to affect the growth of
many large companies. His powers were not to be reckoned with. Even a multi-
billion–dollar company would not dare mess with the Director of the Regulatory
Division.
“Ethan Burke? Alright, then.” Alexander nodded and took his phone out. He made a
call and said gently, “Is this the mayor’s hotline? Please transfer me to Lewis
Christian. I’d like to file a report.”
The beautiful operator was baffled to hear Alexander’s request. She smiled and
replied, “Sir, the mayor is busy. He can’t possibly answer every call. You can…”
“Tell him.” Alexander did not bother to wait for the operator to finish and calmly
said, “My name is Alexander Kane.”
