The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 839

"Head over to Sinclair Group to discuss the handling of this debacle," Leopold tossed out nonchalantly before hopping in his car and speeding off.

Amelia hesitated for a moment. Unease still washed over her so she decided to drive behind him.

Leopold arrived at Sinclair Group, but rather than seeking out Lysander, he made a beeline for the Public Relations department.

Typically, it was their job to handle such incidents.

Leopold laid out his case to the head of PR, "A smartphone manufactured by Sinclair Group malfunctioned, causing the deaths of two workers. You need to release a statement immediately, acknowledge your shortcomings, and compensate the families of the deceased with a billion dollars each."

The PR head was in a pickle. Releasing such a statement would be akin to admitting that Sinclair Group was responsible for the faulty product, and consequently, the fatalities.

This would undoubtedly tarnish the company's reputation, cause their stocks to plummet, and bring a wave of negative publicity.

It wasn't just a matter of two billion dollars; it would put the entire reputation of Sinclair Group at stake.

The decision was beyond his pay grade.

As he grappled with the dilemma, Lysander walked in. The tension in the room instantly spiked.

Upon seeing Lysander, Leopold's demeanor hardened.

"Lysander," he began sternly, "are you reluctant to have the Sinclair Group release a statement to take the toll?"

Lysander's gaze was piercing and intense as he retorted, "Is this your well-thought-out solution?"

Leopold locked eyes with Lysander’s piercing and adamant gaze. His heart sank.

At that moment, Amelia rushed into the office. Noticing the standoff between Leopold and Lysander, she asked in a nervous tone, "What's going on? Is there anything so serious that you two, uncle and nephew, need to confront each other like this?"

Upon seeing Amelia, Leopold's fists clenched at his sides; his jaw set and a hint of redness clouded his amber eyes.
