The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 530

Chapter 530 

A loss of 20 million dollars! 

Although Albert was rich, 20 million dollars was not a small sum. It still made his heart tremble. 

After Lily said this, she opened her mouth and wanted to say something. However, she seemed to be a little afraid. 

“Secretary Lily, you don’t have to worry about anything. If you have anything to say, just say it. The chairman is here. No one will make things difficult for you, but you can only say the truth,” said Philip. 

“The chairman likes frank people. However, you have to tell the truth. You can’t make it up,” Ethan added. 

Secretary Lily didn’t dare to say it yet. She just looked at Albert timidly, waiting for Albert’s approval. 

“Speak, Albert said calmly. 

After Lily has gotten her approval, she finally relaxed. She seemed to be relieved and said, “Our company has been busy. Recently, in order to hold a board meeting, we have been doing various financial summaries and data summaries.” 

“However, after Mr. Jaber passed away, Ms. Labenz was listless about everything. Not long ago, Deity Pharmaceutical Group wanted to collaborate with our company on a big project.” 

“However, Ms. Labenz was immersed in sadness and rejected them directly. She even called the people from Deity Pharmaceutical Group to get lost and not bother her” 

‘And… 

Lily said a lot in one breath. In summary, she said that Reign had failed during the critical moment and caused the company to lose millions of dollars. 

The more she spoke, the darker Albert’s expression became. 

“Alright, stop talking!” Philip chided hypocritically, signaling Secretary Lily to stop talking. 

“Let her speak!” Albert said in a deep voice 

“Dad, Rei is usually very outstanding at work. This time, it’s mainly because she is affected by such a big incident that she lost her composure,” Philip explained. 

“That’s right, Grandpa. Rei has always been outstanding in managing the company. Even I can’t compare to her. The person who died this time might have a deep relationship with her, which is why she’s like this,” Ethan said. 

The father and son were both hypocritical. Their words were filled with excuses for Reign. 

This was a method of retreating in order to advance. 

They were hypocritical because they wanted to give Mr. Labenz a good image. They wanted to express that they were only focused on the company and did not want to seize power or anything else. 

Albert immediately caught the key information. “You mean, Rei and the dead Haylan have an extraordinary relationship?” 

“Yes, as far as I know, Mr. Jaber saved Ms. Labenz’s life several times. During this period of time, Ms. Labenz is seen being together with Mr. Jaber frequently.” Secretary Lily said. 

“Are you saying that Ms. Labenz has fallen in love with Mr. Jaber for a long time?” Philip asked. 

Secretary Lily shook her head and said, “I’m not sure either. However, when I was cleaning Ms. Labenz’s office previously found Mr. Jaber’s photos in Ms. Labenz’s drawer.” 

Albert, Philip, and Ethan looked at each other. 

“Dad, looks like Rei is really moved. No wonder she lost her composure like this,” Philip said. 

Ethan let out a long sigh and said, “Oh, Rei has had such an unfortunate life. Her mother passed away early, her father went missing, and her younger brother is suffering from a serious illness. She is all alone, without any support or companionship.” 

“It wasn’t easy for her to fall in love with a man, and that man was poisoned to death by his subordinates. My heart aches for her. 

After saying this, he pretended to be very concerned as he looked at Reign in the room. 

Albert frowned slightly and said, “In that case, let her calm down first. Philip, organize your people inmediately and report the company’s situation to me.” 

With that, he walked towards Philip’s office. 

Philip was overjoyed. 

The chairman had always listened to CEO’s financial report and the company’s summary for nearly a year. Now that Albert 

Chapter 530 

had asked him to report, it was obvious that he treated him as CEO. 

He quickly gathered his men and asked the finance department to bring all ledger over. 

“Dad, are you sure?” Ethan whispered. 

Financial statements were usually only available to the CEO. 

Philip was only the vice president. How could he prepare such a thing? 

“Don’t worry. Your father is a strategist. He always has a plan in mind. How can he not have a plan?” Philip smiled. 

Next, he closed the door and curtains of his office and took our a projector. He projected all kinds of reports on his computer on the wall and explained to Albert the company’s various operations, profits, and losses in recent years. 

During the report, he was fair and just. He acknowledged his achievements when they were his own, and he recognized Reign’s contributions as her own, never seeking to take credit for others’ accomplishments. 

This was because he knew his father well. He knew that Albert hated people who took others’ credit for their own. 

Therefore, when he reported, he did it fairly. 

Albert looked at the report and listened attentively. He nodded repeatedly. 

“Philip, you and Rei have done well all these years,” 

After Philip successfully presented his report, he looked up at him and pondered for a moment before asking, ‘So, which direction should the company focus on for future development?” 

Philip’s expression brightened, and he replied, “We should delve deeper into the pharmaceutical market, pursue horizontal expansion, and diversify the company. While maintaining our presence in the pharmaceutical market and exploring new opportunities within it, we should actively pursue further possibilities.” 

“Such as?” 

“For example, movies, investments, finance, and so on.” 

“It’s a good idea.” 

Albert nodded and said, “Rei suffered a huge blow. She shouldn’t be able to adjust in a short period of time. I plan to give her some time to rest,”
