Expert Down The Mountain by Summer

Chapter 23

“Mr. Salazar, you have no right to speak here!” Korah said sternly in a cold voice. Stefano smiled and

looked aggrieved for Cyrus. “Ms. Gardner, I don’t think that’s the case. Since Mr. Salazar attended this

meeting, he has the right to speak. “Ms. Gardner, aren’t your words too harsh?” Korah clenched her

fist. She was fuming! ‘Team Four is infamous, even outside the company. Who would want to sign a

contract with them? ‘What do you know, Cyrus?!’ “Ms. Gardner, I think Mr. Blanke is right. Team Four

needs to show some results to prove its capability.”

Cyrus did not seem to notice what Korah was trying to do as he spoke seriously. Stefano smiled

broadly. “I truly admire such an ambitious person like you. If Team Four is able to sign projects worth

twenty million dollars and above…

“I will acknowledge the team and never again ask to abolish the team.

“However, I want Team Four to win this bet on their own. They must not seek any help in secret.”

Cyrus nodded and said plainly, “Deal.” Stefano jested, “Deal.” Korah’s expression was dark as she

glared at Cyrus furiously. She looked like she wanted to stab him a thousand times. When Stefano saw

Korah’s expression, his mood became better. He asked with a smile, “Ms. Gardner, are we dismissed?”

Korah took a deep breath. “Everyone is dismissed!”

Everyone collected their belongings and left the table.

Before Stefano walked out, he turned and looked back at her mockingly, “Ms. Gardner, remember,

tomorrow is the deadline given by Mr. Zuniga.” After saying this, Stefano walked out of the meeting

room triumphantly. “Do you have a screw loose?” Korah was fuming as she lashed out at Cyrus. “No,

I’m fine,” Cyrus said. “You’re fine? I think you’re pretty sick! Cyrus, do you know that no matter how

arrogant Stefano Blanke is, he can never abolish Team Four?!

“The company created Team Four! Stefano is just using Team Four to threaten me!

“And you made a bet that cannot be retracted. Team Four will get disbanded because of your impulsive

action. The chairmen won’t do anything to Stefano! “They will only attack you, you brainless b*stard!”

Of course, other than that, if Team Four was disbanded, another issue would arise too.

However, she could not speak of this.

Cyrus decided not to argue with her anymore when he noticed how angry she was. He smiled

cheerfully. “That’s good. If Team Four is disbanded, I can leave the company. You won’t need to see

me here anymore.”

Korah was stunned when she heard this.

Cyrus, on the other hand, walked out of the meeting room with a calm expression.

Korah only came back to her senses after some time passed. She cursed under her breath. That

b*stard just keeps making me angry!’ She went back to her office and said to her secretary, “Make an

appointment with Mr. Nathan Zuniga for the quality inspection! Tonight!”

In the office of the Chief Financial Officer, Stefano sat in his chair, smiling broadly.

Someone knocked on his door. Stefano said cheerfully, “Come in.” ;

Hamilton, the head of Human Resource entered. He asked doubtfully, “Do you think that bright guy will

be able to settle Korah’s problem?”

Stefano smiled plainly. “Of course. He has someone supporting him from behind the scenes.”

Hamilton frowned and said, “The chairman will back her up.”

“Haha, Hamilton…” Stefano suddenly burst out laughing. “Once Team Four is disbanded, there will be

no one to protect Korah.”

“I’m glad Cyrus bet with me on this. If not, I won’t be able to disband Team Four!”

‘Team Four has always been considered useless and idle. There’s no excuse not to disband Team

Four!

‘At least, now I don’t need to worry about how to disband Team Four.’

When Cyrus entered Team Four’s office, Talia instantly poured him a drink. “Thanks,” he said.

Talia, Nigel, and the rest of the team members surrounded him and asked curiously, “Cyrus, what did

you all discuss in the meeting?” Cyrus simply explained it to them. Their faces became pale. “Cyrus…

Twenty… twenty-million-dollar project?” Nigel stuttered. “Yes.” Cyrus nodded.

The six rich second-generation employees who were called “trash” and “garbage” fell to the ground.

Their legs had all turned numb at the same time. All of them were grief-stricken as if they had just lost

their parents. “Twenty-million-dollar projects…? That’s impossible…” Nigel murmured blankly. Cyrus

noticed their expressions. He could not help but ask curiously, “Is it that difficult? We just need to work

hard, no?” Talia cried out, “Cyrus, it’s not as easy as you think. Project Department’s Team Four in

Gardner Corporation is infamous…” “Everyone knows that our team is full of useless rich second

generations. No one will hand over any project to us…”

Cyrus frowned slightly. ‘I see. No wonder Stefano was so sure that I would not be able to hit the target

at all.’

“Good God… If I can’t even stay in Team Four, my father will definitely say I’m more useless than

trash.”

One of the members, Lucas Duncan, looked as if he was dead.

Everyone looked as if they had just seen a ghost. Cyrus comforted them when he noticed how

depressed they looked. “Don’t worry. Team Four will not be disbanded. I will take responsibility for it.

“If we don’t hit the target by then, I will ask Mr. Lufian Gardner to protect Team Four.” When they heard

this, they raised their heads and their eyes lit up. “Are you being serious?” Cyrus nodded. “Yes. Don’t

worry, okay?” The team members cheered up. They looked as if they had survived a disaster. They did

not worry about how Cyrus would achieve the target. With Mr. Gardner backing him up, no one would

dare to do anything to him!
