The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power novel Chapter 77

Daniel's tone was serious as he spat out the words one by one. "Curiosity killed the cat, my friend. Stop being noisy if you still care about your family!"

"Y-Yes... I won't say another word..."

Jay was scared out of his wits! To think the Vice President was using his family's lives to threaten him! It was as clear as day that Daniel was more powerful than Jay had initially thought!

Kingsley's fingers tapped against the office desk as he asked, "Daniel, why did you recruit a person like him into our company?

"To answer your question, Mr. Nicholson." Daniel stood as straight as a ramrod.

"I've considered his family background. The Carters have long been a well-known aristocratic family in the city, so they have a good reputation. Jay is not only the young master of the family, but he has also graduated with a DBA from the bestranking university in the world. Hiring him will be very beneficial for Coliree Group's future developments."

Although Daniel was dressed in a suit, his mannerism and speech still had traces of a person who had once trained in the military.

"DBA?"

Well, this is new. Kingsley's initial impression of Jay was just a rich lad who was arrogant and domineering due to his family background. This dude is not as bad, I guess.

After all, the best university wasn't a place where someone could enter with just money and mere connections.

Worried that Kingsley would place the blame on him, he quickly explained, "Yes. Although Jay is a little arrogant, he's the real deal. If not for that, I never would have let him become the General Manager for the company..."

Kingsley nodded his head in response. If this lad could be trained well, there is a possibility that he could become a real asset to the company in the future.

Noticing that Kingsley's expression had relaxed slightly, Jay felt as if he saw a ray of hope, so he took the chance to make his plea. "Mr. Nicholson, as you know, I'm the young master of the Carter Family. I had to learn how to grow up under everyone's gaze on me. Everyone jumped at the chance to flatter me, yet they were all waiting for the day I would make a single mistake. I had no choice but to become who I am today in order to protect myself..."

Although Kingsley knew he was speaking the truth, he still questioned coldly, "Are you trying to give excuses?"

"N-No..." Terrified, Jay kneeled down and begged for mercy. "I fully understand that my attitude was the problem, and I'll promise I'll change. I swear on my life, so please don't fire me..."

"I can consider not firing you." His fingers were still tapping rhythmically on the table. "I'll consider it if you can correct your arrogant behavior and obey all my orders."

Feeling as if a huge burden was suddenly lifted from his shoulders, Jay bowed and thanked him, announcing, "I'll make sure to correct all my bad habits and follow your lead!" "Alright, I'll ask Daniel to keep an eye on you. If I ever received news that you looked down on someone again, I'll make sure to finish you off myself!"

"Yes, yes. I'll never do that again..." Jay was overjoyed to the point he felt like crying because he was finally out of danger...

As for Kingsley, he had his own reasons for keeping Jay.

Daniel was right, they had to build a connection with the local forces in order for their company to have a perfect disguise.

At the same time, they had to make sure they had a secured place within the business industry. In that case, Jay was definitely the perfect choice. By recruiting him, they could kill two birds with one stone!

"You can continue your work now. There are still a few matters I have to discuss with Daniel."

Kingsley gave a sign for Jay to leave. Noticing the meaning behind Kingsley's words, he quickly left the office.

"Come on, let's go and have a look at how Boris is doing." Kingsley stood up and said, "I want to interrogate him personally."
