Chapter 135 Completely Different
Then the Barnwell group held a board meeting. Not only was Terry late, but he also gave a look to the familiar board members. The other party immediately suggested, “Mr. Barnwell, now that Thunder Cup’s accident competition has become so big, the racing association has not given a statement. I think it’s time to take back the company’s investment.” Since it was related to money, people naturally echoed.
“Yes, now the outside world is waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves. I think it’s better to withdraw the investment as soon as possible.” Hank sat in the president’s seat and casually said, “The funds have already been transferred. We signed the contract in advance. How can we go back on our words at this moment?”
There was no way back. “Then we don’t need to pay for Nore’s medical expenses, do we? I passed by the department in the morning. They…” Before he finished speaking, Hank had already cast a glance at him. The director immediately shut his mouth in fear. Terry frowned and pretended not to know. “Mr. Barnwell, Director Li’s words are also reasonable. No one can say for sure what happened at the racing field. Since the company’s investment has been in place, there is no need to take responsibility that should not be taken. Otherwise, people will spread rumors and say that Mr. Barnwell is using public power for private interests.” “What do you mean?” Hank’s face sank. “Of course, we all believe in your character. But there will always be villains who will have evil thoughts behind your back. Now, isn’t your ex-wife Lyra Nore’s girlfriend? | think it is better to avoid suspicion at this time.” “Yes, Vice President Xiao is right, and Lubi family doesn’t lack this bit of money!” Hank’s eyes turned cold, and he slammed the folder on the table. “This matter has been discussed during the last meeting. You are just wasting everyone’s time now.” Terry curled his lips, and his smile deepened. “Mr. Barnwell means that we should consider the company, right?”
Soon, the meeting room was in an uproar.
Huaien originally did not attend the meeting, but when he received a report from his secretary, he had no choice but to step forward and be a peacemaker. “Our company is also responsible for this matter. A portion of the medical expenses is
nothing to the Barnwell group.” Huaien pressed down on the Barnwell group’s shoulder. “Moreover, be generous and there will always be returns.” Hank and Huaien’s shares combined were enough to dominate the entire Barnwell group. Terry could only swallow this anger. In the end, he left in anger. The few directors also knew how to judge the situation and did not say anything more.
Huaien coughed a few times. “Alright, you guys continue with the meeting. I’ll go see Vice President Xiao. As a young man, it’s normal to have different opinions. Everyone is doing this for the development of the company.”
With these few words from Huaien, the tense atmosphere in the conference room clearly eased a lot.
Before he walked out of the conference room, he whispered to Hank, “You have to restrain your temper too. I’ll go take a look at Terry. You don’t have to worry.”
Hank nodded and did not say much.
The meeting continued. After it was over, Keith came over with his phone. “Mr. Barnwell, the racing association hopes that you will go over.” “Let’s go.”
The man got up and left the meeting room. Then the directors all breathed a sigh of relief.
