Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 933

Standing nearby, Timothy stated firmly, "I've made it clear before—there's no possibility of a partnership between the Barrett family and the Bowen family."

Connie quickly stepped in, saying, "Mr. Barrett, please remember that this contract was set by your uncle. As a younger member of the family, it might not be suitable for you to go against his decision."

Without missing a beat, Timothy pressed on, "Since you all seem so keen to work with Uncle Ralph, he will no longer hold the position of general manager at the Barrett Group subsidiary. I'll instruct the HR department to issue his dismissal notice immediately."

Ralph responded with a cold scoff, "Timothy, don't think for a moment that threatening to dismiss me will have any impact. The position of subsidiary general manager was never my ambition anyway.

"Remember, I entered into these negotiations after careful consideration. If you fail to see the value in this opportunity, there are plenty who will."

Lewis hesitated before speaking, "But, Mr. Hopkins, what the Bowen Group values is the societal impact and influence that the Barrett Group provides. Without the backing of the Barrett Group, our project simply cannot proceed."

Lewis' cutting words struck Ralph hard, bruising his pride. Furious, he lashed out, "Without my efforts, would the Bowen family even have had this collaboration opportunity?

"This contract could have succeeded independently, without relying on your family's support. Your lack of vision is staggering.

"It's no surprise the Bowen Group remains a small entity. If you're not interested in our partnership, there are plenty who are eager to collaborate with me!"

Ralph began to turn away, but Lewis halted him, insisting, "Hold on. If you're no longer interested in working with our family, perhaps you should return the stuff I previously gave you."

Ralph's expression soured instantly, erupting in anger, "You're spouting nonsense! What gifts did I receive from you? It was your family who begged for this partnership and sent trivial tokens. I didn't even pay them any attention."

"If you truly have no regard for them, then it's only fair to return everything," Lewis countered firmly.
