"She was only the president of the Lins Group!" The disdain on the faces of the middle-aged man and his young companion replaced by shock.
"The president of the Lins Group?"
Before the middle-aged man could totally accept the reality, President Wang continued, "You even have the guts to threaten the president of the Lins Group? I think that our small company won't be able to accommodate your capacity anymore. I'd expect your resignation to be on my desk very soon. And the company car will be taken away from you tonight. Someone will inspect the apartment that the company assigned to you in three days. Be ready to move out then. I'll inform the industry about your behavior today. As a friend, I have an advice for you."
President Wang took a deep look at the middle-aged man and then said, "Change your career. I don't think you'll have another chance."
The middle-aged man was completely stunned. He had been working for so many years in this industry, and at the time he finally gained some kind of status for himself, he was forced to change career?
At this age, it was no different than taking his livelihood for good.
President Wang didn't say another word to the middle- aged man. She looked at his young girlfriend and snorted, "You're young and ignorant. Spending some time on educating yourself rather than looking for sugar- daddies. Mess with President Lin? You are looking for trouble!"
President Wang then turned to the toy store manager, "According to your behavior just now, President Lin has decided to sue you for consumer fraud and violation of the mall regulation. Your only hope is that they will assign a very generous judge to your case. Your behavior has damaged the image of our mall and the reputation of the Lins Group. The company may pursue a financial penalty. I suggest you prepare the money." President Wang cleared her throat. "Maybe you want to consider sell your apartment."
The manager's face instantly turned pale. Her eyes were full of helplessness and remorse.
President Wang shook her head and ignored the manager. The toy store manager had it coming.
After what happened in the mall, Sylvia and Henry had lost their moods for shopping. They picked a bunch of toys and drove home.
Stopping in front of the traffic light, Henry took a look at Sylvia, who was sitting beside him in silence.
"Sweetheart, what's wrong? What's on your mind?"
Henry waved his hand in front of Sylvia's eyes.
"I'm still thinking about what's happened in the mall."
Sylvia took a deep breath. "Maybe I'm too naive to think so, but I really hope there will not be anything unfair happens in the Lins Group."
"Dear, let's forget about it. We..." In the middle of Henry's words, he felt a wave of vibration from under their car.
Henry's face changed. Before Sylvia realized what happened, Henry unfastened Sylvia's seat belt. He jumped out of the car holding Sylvia in his arms.
In a few seconds, residents started to run out of their apartment buildings in panic. Some of them only had their underwear on.
The vibration came from underground. It lasted for more than ten seconds.
"Earthquake! Earthquake!"
Someone was shouting.
Henry felt that something was not right. Earthquakes rarely happened in Orafield Province, and there hadn't been one that was as strong as this. At this time, Henry's cell phone rang.
"Henry, we have problems in the underground palace!"
"Just as I expected!"
It was Silver Visitor who called Henry.
When an incident so abnormal happened, there would always be someone who was creating problems on purpose.
