Raymond merely scoffed, “Hmph! Be my guest. I have nothing to fear.”
Leyton floundered when he realized his threats fell on deaf ears.
Just then, an eavesdropping Jeffrey ran into the office and declined for Raymond. “Mr. Green, I believe that the Scott family is still our best choice when it comes to manufacturing or sales. Signing a deal with them would maximize our profits as well.”
The Scott family had bribed Jeffery to help them secure a deal with Cosmic Chemical. If the deal fell through, he would have to return the bribe and potentially face Leyton's wrath.
His advice angered Raymond, who bellowed, “Jeffrey, why are you butting your head into this contract business?
You're just an office administrator, and you don't have a say in these deals!”
His loud reprimand startled Jeffrey into silence, and the latter moved aside quietly.
“Did you take money from the Scotts? Why are you pushing so hard for Mr. Green to sign a deal with them?” Jared asked Jeffrey directly.
Jeffrey sputtered angrily, “What the h*ll are you saying? No one took anyone's money! I think you have poor character, and I've always believed an employee's character is a reflection of their company values.”
Raymond, on the other hand, broke out in a cold sweat.
He was aware of Jared's identity, and he could not believe Jeffrey had the gall to insult Jared to his face.
Does he have some sort of death wish? While I'm busy worrying if Jared is pleased with our service, my incompetent subordinate barged in to insult him and ruin my efforts!
He gave Jeffrey a kick behind his knees and seethed. “Shut it. How could you speak to Mr. Chance like that? Get on your knees now!”
