Amy was talking to Andy about something. When Richard came in, the two stopped talking and both looked at Richard.
"I just came in to serve you guys water. Please continue your discussion." Richard put the tea down and went out. He even closed the door behind him on his way out.
"Well. Have you decided to do this?" Andy took a sip of tea and asked Amy.
"Yes. I'm going to do it. I don't want to flinch anymore." Amy nodded firmly.
"OK, I'll help you." Andy nodded. He would help Amy unconditionally as long as it was what Amy wanted to do.
"Mr. Carter, our goods were delivered last time, but the other party hasn't paid. This time, they directly rejected it because the goods are faulty." The sales manager rushed into Halbert's office, panting.
"What? Faulty goods? The quality of our goods is always up to standard. Why didn't it reach the standard this time?" Halbert was surprised. HD Group had invested a lot of money in the goods.
"I do not know. This is the returned goods. I have checked it. They are indeed our productions. But our productions have been inspected." The sales manager had several unqualified goods in his hand.
"Mr. Carter, bad news! Those quality inspectors are missing for no reason. They haven't come to work for several days." The manager of the HR department came to Halbert's office to report.
Halbert had a headache. Each time the other party would pay for the first goods only after they received the second goods. If the second goods were unqualified, HD Group would get much less money for the first goods, and even have to compensate the other party for the second faulty goods.
"How can so many things happen at the same time? Is there someone behind it?" Halbert suddenly heard so many things and was a little overwhelmed. He had never encountered so many troublesome things at the same time.
"You go find out what's going on. Get those quality inspectors back and ask who's behind it." Halbert almost roared to his men.
"Yes, I'll go check it out right away." The sales manager and the manager of the HR department then both went out.
"Halbert, look at your good son. What's going on? Why don't you even tell me about it?" Cathy came in with a newspaper in her hand. She slapped it down on Halbert's desk in anger.
Halbert opened the newspaper and saw the headline, "The second son of the Carter family has embezzled hundreds of millions of public funds." In addition, there were the photos of William and his mistress being taken on the street, and the photos of his luxury villa. Those were all exposed.
These things about the Carter family were spreading online. Soon, the hits were over 10,000, and still increasing.
"Dad, Dad, I am too ashamed to see anyone now. What should I do?" Sophia cried and ran into Halbert's office, showing the video on her phone to Halbert.
Sophia was drinking tea with some rich ladies at that time. She didn't know which bitch saw the video first and showed it to everyone. Then, those people looked at her with contempt. In a short time, they all kept a distance from her, as if she was a virus.
Halbert watched those things and a spurt of anger flashed through him. He felt a little dizzy.
