Hearing that, Eugene sneered. Then, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Lara. “How did you know that I was poisoned?” At once, Lara felt her heart sink. Immediately afterward, she explained herself by saying, “I was also deeply concerned about you. We couldn’t see you, and your dad was thinking about you.
So, I asked my assistant to inquire about your condition. I have no idea who she inquired from and let us think you were critically ill, but it’s better now that you’re fine. It saves us the time and effort in worrying that the company has no leader and figuring out who to elect as the new president.”
Listening to Lara’s watertight statement, Eugene scoffed. “Deeply concerned about me? When I was critically ill, you guys convened all the shareholders together to fight for my current position. You guys even bothered my aging Grandpa to make a trip to the company and fight with his own brothers to the point that his face turned purple with rage. And you dare to call this concern?!!!”
At this moment, Edward frowned slightly as he was a little dissatisfied with Eugene’s attitude toward Lara. “You were lying in the hospital for a few days and didn’t come to the company. Do you know how messed up the situation in the company was? Do you know how panicked the company’s employees were? Lara and I were simply discussing how to help you stabilize the situation. So, how is that not regarded as our concern about you?”
There was no ounce of expression on Eugene’s face while his pair of sharp eyes stared at Edward. Eugene then retorted with a cold and deep voice, “So, the solution that you guys discussed was to take over my position while I was critically ill? Not to mention, Doctor Maxwell had already made it clear to you all that I was fine.
Even if I was really critically ill, shouldn’t you guys keep a tight lid on my illness and look for Grandpa to figure out a way to make the company operate normally? Yet, you guys still allowed the news to continue circulating around and let the company fall into such a mess. Panicked? Instead of finding a way to solve the problem, you guys looked for someone to inquire whether I was really critically ill. Just like this, you guys still have the nerve to speak or fight.”
After he spoke, he paused for a while. His eyes blinked lazily. “From what I see, you simply wish for the company to be as chaotic as possible. That way, you can take advantage and gain profit from this chaos. For someone as selfish as you, do you think how long can you stay in position even if I give it to you?”
