My Second Husband novel Chapter 641

In the spacious and bright conference room in TEM Company's Greene City branch, after playing the video about their announcement to end their operations and subsequent withdrawal from Greene City, David was about to rise from his seat, but Amos pressed his shoulders down.

"This is my responsibility. According to the company's regulations, I should be the one receiving the punishment!"

After that, he glanced at Clint and ordered, "Bring in the whip!"

Clint hesitated for a moment and said, "President Granger, you haven't recovered from your previous injuries!"

Amos chuckled, "It's alright. As a leader, I knew that it was wrong, and I still did it. Therefore, I should be punished..."

"President Granger..." Clint wanted to speak further, but Amos interrupted him.

"What are you dawdling for?"

Clint had no choice but to obey and take the whip. That whip actually had its own history. There were managers who were arrogant and abused their powers when TEM Company first started.

They didn't like to follow orders in their daily work either.

Amos introduced the whip to remove the toxic environment in the company. He would use that whip to punish his own body after making a mistake deliberately.

He had suffered through an extremely vicious beating at that time. Amos' body had only recovered after half a month because he had torn his skin and flesh apart.

However, he managed to deter those who were not willing to obey his commands because of that. They no longer dared to defy orders.

For many years, TEM Company's internal conduct was like the military. That whip was something that they hadn't used for many years.

Unexpectedly, the reason it was taken out again this time was because of President Granger.

Clint sighed and hoped that Miss George could understand President Granger's predicament.

Amos took off his coat calmly after the whip was presented. He stood with his back facing Clint. Clint was about to lift the whip when Amos raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Since my actions had been detrimental to the company, that also meant that my leadership was questionable. Therefore, I hope that each staff in the company could look through this process. This time, they should be the ones to do it..."

"President Granger..." Clint frowned. He thought that he could go easy on him, but if someone else were the one to do it...

However, Amos had made up his mind and ordered, "Get out!"

Clint took a deep breath and left the conference room. It didn't take long before the sounds of whipping could be heard. Clint could feel the pain just by hearing it.

However, Amos did not make a sound from the beginning to the end.

After that, Amos opened the door and came out. He had already put on his clothes again. If it weren't for his pale lips, it was impossible to tell that he had just been punished.

Clint said hurriedly, "President Granger, I'll escort you home to have a rest! I've also called Doctor Leon and asked him to take care of the injuries."

"That will not be necessary!" Amos shook his head. "Didn't you say earlier in the morning that we have a client from Valiant East whom we have to meet up with? Let's go!"

Clint was shocked. "President Granger, that's not right! I could always discuss it with the clients. Your health is paramount..."

"No!" Amos shook his head. "Clint, you're an assistant, a very qualified one at that. Tell me, as a leader, how could one damage the company's interests because of their personal issues?"

Clint was quiet.

Amos had delayed a lot of work for Miss George in the past, none of which had affected the company. Everything was still in order.

Clint knew from the bottom of his heart that Amos was punishing himself.

Fabian's words seemed to have touched on a sore spot. Furthermore, Fabian even hinted that Miss George was distrustful of him. These words alone were enough to sadden him.

What he was doing at that moment was to numb himself.

Clint knew it all. And because of that, he chose not to dissuade him.

Forget it!
