Chapter 379
Zeke explained hurriedly, “What are you thinking about? I am only Summer’s employer. At that time, I was only
posing as her boyfriend for her to shake Humpty off.”
Dawn scoffed, “Humph. The more you explain, the more you have to hide. Also, you are so mean to me and rather
sleep with an outsider instead of me. Am I so unattractive?”
Zeke was at a loss for words.
This girl has such an innocent appearance. Why is her mind so corrupted? She is hopeless indeed!
Sofia rubbed her forehead in bafflement, not knowing whether she should laugh or cry at the situation before her.
To think that I am worried about Zeke’s marriage. My worries are unfounded.
Zeke then said to Teeth, “You are still useful to me. I shall let you off this time. Remember not to tell Humpty that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou have betrayed him. Continue to cooperate with him. I want to beat him at his own game.”
Teeth was relieved and nodded fervently before he scrambled out of the place.
At least, I manage to save myself today.
After that, Zeke led Sofia and Dawn into the meeting room.
He pointed at the senior managers who had resigned and said, “Dawnie, help me investigate them. If they have
neglected their duties and abused their positions to reap benefits for themselves, report them to the police
immediately. If you can’t find any problem with them, then make something up to get them locked up.”
Hades, who was standing aside, chuckled to himself.
He will go to the extent of making something up to land them in trouble. Indeed, he is quite devious.
Hades caught a glimpse of his young self in Zeke Williams.
The senior managers were frightened to the core, as all of them had done dirty deeds before, which they could not
risk being exposed.
If we get locked up, then we are done!
Hence, they pleaded, “Mr. Williams, we are sorry. It is all our fault.”
“Mr. Williams, we have decided not to resign. Please give us another chance.”
“Mr. Williams, we were forced by Teeth to submit our resignations just now. Actually, we are the victims too. Please
spare us this time.”
Zeke asked coldly, “Do you want to continue working on this project?”
All of them nodded hurriedly.
“But we have signed on your resignation letters, and our employer-employee relationship is terminated. You have
no obligation to carry on working on this project.”
One of the senior managers caught his meaning and replied immediately, “Mr. Williams, we will work on this project
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor free. We won’t take any salary. Since you aren’t hiring us, there is no need for another employment contract.”
Zeke feigned a troubled look and looked at Sofia, “What do you think?”
Of course, Sofia was delighted.
Only a fool will reject such a good offer.
“Okay. But rest assured, if your performance is outstanding, I will compensate you for your services.”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Zeke stared at the dark, burly man who was their supplier and said, “Dawnie, investigate this man. He used to be
our supplier, but I suspect he has shortchanged us and pocketed the difference himself. If it is found to be true, we
must punish him severely.”
Dawn nodded instantly, “Got it.”
The legs of the dark, burly man turned into jelly, and his heart was beating furiously.
Indeed, I always deliver ten percent lesser than the contracted quantity and pocket the shortfall, which would have
accumulated up to 10 million by now. If they find out, I will be imprisoned for at least ten years! Ten years! How
many decades does one have in one’s entire life? Furthermore, a lot of people are coveting my assets. Once I am
in jail, those people will surely lay claim over my assets and split them among themselves!
