Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1202

The floodgates opened and memories came pouring in.

Jonathan opened up and talked about the past that he had buried for many years. When it came to the essential part of the story, he held back instantaneously. His throat choked a little.

“Grandpa, what happened to the company then?” Kyle asked eagerly.

Jonathan took another sip of tea. Both his hands gripped onto the cup and continued, “Seet Group received a big business deal from the Marston Group back then. Both companies rushed to produce a batch of valuable products together. However, Seet Group miscalculated two important data and there was a huge problem with the final product. Everything had gone to waste. Therefore, Seet Group was responsible for quite a huge loss. If we were to pay off everything based on our financial ability back then, bankruptcy might have been the next thing for us.”

“And then?” Kyle asked.

At that moment, his eyes deepened as if he had figured out something from within.

Jonathan sighed. “Kyle, do you know why your Great-grandpa did not hand over the Seet Group to me, but to your Dad instead?”

“Something to do with this matter?” Kyle postulated.

Jonathan’s face darkened and followed with a deep sigh. “That is correct. I had disappointed him too much because of this matter!”

“After delivering the goods with Sam that time, I directed all the faults to him in order to minimize Seet Group’s losses. I organized a drinking session and had Sam drunk on purpose. I swapped the two agreements and had him responsible for the batch of problematic goods! He was drunk and was kept in the dark. He thought he had received a profitable contract. After sobering up the next day, he came to realization that I had betrayed him when he found out that Marston Group was liable for a loss!”

“So, Marston Group compensated for the loss and they closed down because of that?”

“Our company was the one that produced the defective goods. Unwilling to be a scapegoat, Sam tried his best to defend himself. I was constantly living in fear and guilt, therefore, I bribed two witnesses to prove he was at fault. Then, he was forced to compensate for the losses and Marston Group went bankrupt. That incident was a great blow to him as he felt that the world’s unpredictable and was filled with evil people. As a result, he suffered from depression and committed suicide by jumping off a building not long after!”
