Chapter 71
Sylvia’s expression turned icy. These people were clearly trying to put Ashton in his place.
Gritting her teeth, Felice declared, “Ms. Langley, Evermore Club has been going downhill as it is. You’ll only be making matters worse if you suddenly bring in someone new to manage the place. I’m afraid I can’t work under him and help him run the club.”
It was the first time she’d spoken to Sylvia that way, but she genuinely treated Evermore Club like a home to her. She couldn’t bear to watch it fall apart.
What would happen to everyone who worked here if it went under? They all had families depending on them.
“Ms. Langley, I’ve been responsible for Evermore Club’s security all along, and not once have we had any trouble here. What is this bunch of people Ashton brought with him even capable of? Are my men and I supposed to submit to their authority? We refuse to accept that!” Kurt declared.

“I think Ms. Hammond and Mr. Webster are right, Ms. Langley.”
“We’ll follow Ms. Hammond and Mr. Webster!”
One voice after another joined in as the staff declared their stance.
By now, Sylvia’s expression was stormy. She was just about to speak when Ashton stopped her.
“I’m sorry, Ashton. I didn’t expect this to happen…” she said remorsefully.
“It’s fine. Let me handle this.”
“But-”
“How am I supposed to manage Evermore over?” Ashton said.

“That’s right!” Felice retorted haughtily.
“As the manager of Evermore Club, Felice, you’re in charge of every single matter involving the club. But look at what’s happening now. The club is on the brink of collapse and losing money every day. You can’t claim to bear no responsibility for that.
“What gives a manager like you the right to object to having a new boss? On what grounds?” Ashton questioned sharply.
His words made all the blood drain out of Felice’s face. Ever her body started swaying a little. The dominance he gave off made it hard for her to breathe.
At that very moment, she even felt a deep sense of fear toward him.

“It’s not my fault that Evermore Club is having issues, and ‘ve been doing everything I can to turn things around!”
“So that means you don’t have what it takes at all to turn Evermore Club into a success. You couldn’t fix any of the issues, be it the liquor supply or the lack of patrons, so what makes you think you can speak so arrogantly now? At the end of the day, it still boils back down to your lack of ability!” Ashton declared.
“Why, you!”
Felice was so infuriated that her chest was heaving, and her eyes turned red. “And are you trying to imply that you can make things better for Evermore Club? Hah! Everyone is just as capable of making empty promises!”
“That’s right. I can do it,” Ashton said confidently.
“Setting aside everyone else for now, I can resolve the issue with the liquor supply tonight. By the end of tonight, Evermore Club will be signing a contract with Yorkshore Group. They will be supplying us with all of their stock and at the most favorable wholesale prices as well!”
“That’s impossible!” Felice retorted grimly. “From what I know, Natalie York, the CEO of Yorkshore Group, will be signing a new exclusive contract with Summit Lounge today. We don’t stand a chance at all!”
