How could they elevate such an incompetent successor, replacing Marco with this eccentric as the CEO? If any group is doomed, it’s the Bryant Group.” “Marco is a child the Bryant family raised for over two decades, and he served them without compensation all those years. Their cold-hearted expulsion of him speaks volumes, let alone their poor treatment of their own employees.” As the news spread, netizens turned their backs on the Bryant Group en masse. It was at this moment that Marco’s phone rang once again.

As for whether those accusations are mere slanders or the hard truth, you are well aware of the answer.” Caught off guard, Liza was taken aback. Over the years, she had manipulated Marco through emotional blackmail, but having her tactics laid bare Left her somewhat chagrined. Regardless, she put on a facade and spoke in a softer tone.
“Marco, perhaps we were unjust to you, but you should think about the grace we’ve shown you.” Hearing this, Loraine couldn't help but feel repulsed.
Marco had more than compensated for any perceived favors the Bryant family had granted him with the value he had created and the sacrifices he had made over the years. The Bryant family had exiled him, yet they audaciously clung to this illusory notion of his indebtedness.
Wearing a sneer, Marco retorted sharply, “The alleged favors from the Bryant family were repaid in full each t| mopped up your messes Since the Bryant family was heartless tofirst, you have no right to blme.”
