Supreme Mars novel Chapter 132

Soon, as the elevator ascended, the two came to the top of the building, which was the branch of Kingston Chamber of Commerce in Emerdale.

As soon as the elevator opened, a man in suit and tie then walked up with cap in hand and greeted, "The chairman will be here soon, Mr. Cohen."

"Fine." With a smile, Leo responded, and then waited by the elevator together with Nadine.

In a little while, Forrest came, with Alan and Justin following behind.

"Boss!" Said Forrest.

Leo responded with a thin nod, and asked, "Is Thomas here?"

Forrest nodded, "Yes, he's now in the meeting room, and there are still five minutes to go before the conference begins."

"Well, arrange two seats for me and Nadine. We are sitting in on the meeting." Leo said.

His words caused Alan and Justin to shudder. Looking at Leo with fear and veneration, they believed that today would be the doomsday of Thomas.

"Yes, sir." Said Forrest.

Having a clear understanding that Leo had always been a man with low profile, Forrest knew that it would be inappropriate to arrange his boss to sit inside the meeting room. He then suggested with respect, "Boss, there is an office next to the meeting room, and it is possible to attend the conference online via computer."

"Perfect." Leo nodded, and then headed to the office together with Nadine.

It was more like a palace rather than an office — inside of the office, the whole place was decorated with numerous world-renown paintings and some antiques more than a hundred years old. For those who were blessed to work here, the place would give them a paramount feeling, as if an ancient monarch working on his governmental affairs.

Leo sat on a chair placed centrally inside the office, while for Nadine, instead of taking a seat, she chose to stay in a corner as silently as a shadow — she had accustomed herself to being subordinate to her Leon.

Soon, the conference began. Through the computer screen, the faces of every members present were clearly visible to Leo. These men, dressed decently and looked radiant, were all the bigwigs from different cities, who gathered around today for a conference.

Alan and Justin were then seated as well, with Forrest sitting between them. His eyes ran over every single member in the room, and, finally, with a swift and fierce look on his face, his attention was focused on a man, whose name was Thomas.

Thomas, as one of the attendees of the conference, was shuddering out of fear, with his face turning increasingly pale.

Since Darcey confessed his crime to the police and publicized the truth of 316 Event, the whole internet had been heated for that, and for Thomas, it would be least possible for him to know nothing about it.

As one of the initiators of 316 Event, he and Julton Pharmaceutical had thus been pushed to the forefront of the controversy.

Forrest turned on the computer, and played a video, inside of which Darcey was accounting the truth of 316 Event.

The whole meeting room fell silent. Each of the attendees caught her breath and could feel that a repressive atmosphere gradually filled the place.

"Now, maybe you should explain something about this, Mr. Reyes." Forrest turned off the computer and said coldly after the video was over.

The rest of the attendees, within a second, then all turned to Thomas with sharp eyes.

For Thomas, his face turned deathly pale, his forehead was drenched with sweat, and his back was soaked as if a drowned rat.

After a while of hesitation, he said, "I have to confess every wrong that I have done, Mr. Barker. But you need to believe that I was possessed by Peter's slanderous talk at that time! I …"
