The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 492

"Willow has it hard. She's only been the CEO for a few months and now the entire Southlake Corporation has been reduced to rubble."

"They used to be so arrogant back when we tried to seek cooperation with their company. They didn't even take us seriously! Well, she has nothing left now!"

Many sympathized with Willow, while some gloated at her misfortune.

Miranda and the employees of Southlake Corporation were devastated when they learned that the building had turned to ruins.

They might face unemployment even after the war was over. After all, the company was gone.

They were furious as they listened to the mockery from the people around them. Considering the current circumstances, everyone should be united in the face of enemies.

Willow was aware of the brutality of war. However, she simply couldn't accept the fact that the company had been bombed.

Although her tenure as the CEO had been short, she still poured in a lot of effort into the company.

Listening to the sarcastic remarks around her, she felt resigned. However, it couldn't be helped. It was easy for them to be targeted since they were so influential.

"Willow, you rejected me when I proposed to you. Now, look at you. Your company's gone. How do you feel right now?" Nicholas asked mockingly.

Willow simply couldn't be bothered with a pest like him.

Just then, Richard, Alicia, and the Stewarts walked over.

"You were so arrogant back then, Willow. I wonder how you'll still act all high and mighty now that Southlake Corporation has been destroyed!" Richard mocked.

"The CEO of Southlake Corporation who used to have a net value of a few hundred million has nothing left!" Alicia laughed gleefully.

"Why did you sever your ties with the Stewarts, Willow? At least our company is still intact. I wonder if you regret your decision back then?" Marilyn taunted.

However, Marilyn didn't dare to go overboard. She knew how formidable Caspian was.

Willow was a little surprised. The Stewarts were mocking her the moment they heard the bad news.

"So what if Southlake Corporation has been reduced to rubble? What gave you the right to mock me? I still have the branch office at Dhord City even if Southlake Corporation ceases to exist.

"I even have a strategically located villa at Southlake City. No matter how bad it gets, I'm still better off than the Stewarts!" Willow exclaimed indignantly.

Everyone fell silent upon hearing her words. Willow was right. She still had the branch office in Dhord City that was worth hundreds of billions.

She was still the richest person in the entire Southlake City!

"What's there for you to gloat about? For all we know, even your properties in Dhord City have been ruined. Your villa might've been blown apart by the enemies too!" Richard sneered.

"How malicious could you be? Do you think the Hudsons' properties won't be destroyed?" Willow retaliated.

"I'm going to rebuild Southlake Corporation immediately when the war ends. I don't understand what's there for you to gloat about!" she exclaimed.

Willow's words shut their mouths again. After all, she was right. She was fully capable of rebuilding the company.

She had billions in fortune. She still had her funds even if the building was gone.

Unable to retaliate further, the rest of them fell silent.

…

Meanwhile, a few troops had entered Southlake City to prepare for the battle ahead.

The Champion of the Central Plains, Dax, had received Balthazar's orders to deploy a million soldiers to the south.

Astronia's and Vadesia's troops were still a great distance away from Diatoran. They had to cross the sea to arrive.

There was no way Robert and Viktor could reach in such a short amount of time.

This gave Caspian ample amount of time to prepare.
