"What kind of reporters are you? You have no professional ethics! Do you even know how to ask questions? On my very first day, you’re already trying to bury me with talk of bankruptcy! How could I have offended the head of Aurelius Dominion Group? You're talking nonsense! One more word, and I’ll have my lawyers bleed you dry!"
Simon was seething. He hadn't even warmed the president's seat yet, and this was happening? Why the hell would that bastard from Aurelius Dominion Group suddenly cancel their contracts with the Lockwood Group? This was supposed to be the peak moment of his life, and it had turned into a massive joke!
Simon was furious, throwing a tantrum on stage and losing all shred of dignity.
Edgar Lockwood immediately went on stage. "Ladies and gentlemen of the press, there must have been some misunderstanding between the Lockwood Group and Aurelius Dominion Group. We will certainly clarify this in person. I don't believe Aurelius Dominion Group will insist on canceling our partnership. We are going to contact their leader now. This press conference is now over!"
After speaking, Edgar dragged the raging Simon off the stage.
"You're an utter disgrace! What are you doing, making a scene up there? Don't you know everyone is watching? You're still so rash, not composed at all!"
Simon said angrily, "Who knows what that damn Aurelius Dominion Group is trying to do? I just became president, and they want to cancel our contracts. This is a deliberate act of sabotage! They’re trying to ruin me!"
Simon was losing his mind. The feeling of falling from the summit was unbearable. He was going crazy. He had finally become the president of the Lockwood Group, only for it to turn into a complete disaster!
It was infuriating!
"Don't be impetuous! This is precisely the time when you cannot afford to panic!"
Edgar tried to calm Simon down, but Simon was like a powder keg, completely unable to keep his cool.
"You don't know where he is? Can't you find out?"
Edgar was about to have a stroke. He used to think this younger grandson of his was very clever, but it turned out he was only clever about useless things. When real trouble hit, he was completely useless!
Daphne said, "Edgar, don't be so harsh on Simon. Look how upset he is."
Edgar shot back, "You just keep coddling him! He has no sense of responsibility at all! Am I supposed to go and apologize to the head of Aurelius Dominion Group myself?"
Daphne said, "Simon, hurry and go with your grandfather."

I think Terence must know something isn't right about Angela, that's why he agreed to figure it out....
Marie needs to be gone, she has caused enough trouble for Natalie. This is getting boring!...
This fiasco needs to end. Natalie and Terrance need to be together and in my mind somehow those twins are Natalie’s....
Time for Marie to get her end, this has gone on way too long, time to move on. It’s getting boring....
Payback time. Waiting for chapters 321 onwards!...
I love the sarcastic comebacks. Quite amusing!...
