Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 224

Were the wealthy all so capricious with their money? These cufflinks were worth 8.4 million dollars!

…

On the other end, at Shuttle Ventures' CEO's office, Bernard was feeling irritated. She declined his call twice, and the third time he called her, she was on another call. Not long after, Frederick came to make trouble for him again.

Since the afternoon, Frederick kept nitpicking with small issues in their accounts, questioning Bernard aggressively.

Bernard knew that he was doing this on purpose. Frederick was also going all out to trouble him. It was the weekend, but he was willing to work overtime to squabble with him in the office.

As Frederick was also from the Killians, Bernard was willing to duke it out with him.

If Frederick wanted him to work overtime, then he would let Frederick work overnight. If one night was not enough, he would be prepared to let him work overnight for a whole week.

By the third day, Roman was ready to throw in the towel.

"Frederick, I can't do this anymore. I'm so tired."

Bernard was out, and only Roman and Frederick were left in the office. Roman took this chance to slump on the table while he whined.

Frederick was not doing any better. He had drunk countless cups of coffee, and the empty cups were still on the table. Even so, he was still tired. He kept yawning, and his eyelids were heavy.

He couldn't win against Bernard by brute force, so he wanted to find little mistakes in the company accounts to make trouble for Bernard. This was to knock Bernard's confidence down a peg.

Instead, Frederick also shot himself in the foot.

That night, he asked Bernard to provide all the information on an investment transaction. He thought that this would keep Bernard busy until dawn.

However, just as he reached his hotel and was about to find some nightlife entertainment, he received a call from Shuttle Ventures' vice president, Harold. Harold told him that the information was ready, but he wanted to check some things with him in person.

Of course, Frederick did not want to go to the office. "Let's talk tomorrow. I'd like to rest first."
