"Why are you staring at me? I just do what I should do. I will never allow anyone to harm the interests of the company. It’s up to Grandma!"
Katherine was very smart. What she said was very appropriate.
Ewan indeed embezzled public funds and acted boldly. But just relying these, it was obviously impossible to expel Ewan from the company. Old Lady Hunt must still favor this grandson.
If Katherine held onto it, it would leave a bad impression on Old Lady Hunt. Therefore, it was the best practice to stop in moderation.
"Grandma, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I was, yes, I was bewitched by Katherine's secretary, May Willis!"
Ewan felt that he had found a scapegoat. He shouted angrily, "Grandma, it's all May's faults. She is bewitching me!"
With another slap, Ewan's nosebleeds spurted out.
"A big man was bewitched by a little woman. You are still yelling. Shame on you!"
"Grandma, I know I was wrong."
Lewis quickly pleaded, "Mom, Ewan has made a lot of contributions to the company in past a few years. This is the first time. Please spare him."
Having said that, Lewis winked at those relatives.
All of a sudden, some people came forward to intercede for Ewan.
Old Lady Hunt made a decision and said, "Give back the 1.5 million dollars immediately. In the next month, just stay at home and ponder upon your faults."
Ewan felt relieved.
He only spent about 300,000 dollars. It was not difficult for him to pay it back. This punishment could already be very light.
the Hunt Group had strict rules. Misappropriation of public funds was a serious crime. If it were someone else, Old Lady Hunt would definitely expel him from the family.
"Thank you, Grandma."
Ewan got up, glanced at Katherine, followed Lewis and left the meeting room.
Although this was a small incident, it made everyone in the Hunt Family felt complicated.
In the meeting room, Katherine talked about some things about the project. After she came out, she found that the eyes and faces of her relatives looked much warmer and friendly.
"Really realistic." Bella complained lightly.
"Bella, bother you. Not only do you have to be the manager of the Finance Department, but also to serve as my secretary. Your salary will be doubled and your benefits will be generous."
Bella was overjoyed. She didn't expect that she would usher such a good chance at her career.
"Miss Hunt, don't worry. I will be loyal to you and help you take care of everything."
"No need. I’m not letting you be my servant. Just do your own job. If Ewan makes trouble for you again, don't be afraid. You just need to do things according to the rules. I got your back."
Bella nodded.
As soon as Bella left, Ewan popped out and blocked Katherine's way.
"Got a sec?"
Katherine really hated Ewan's guts. She said coldly, "There is nothing to talk about between us."
"Really? Don't you want to know what happened to you last night? You didn't find anything wrong with your body when you woke up?"
Ewan grinned grimly, eyes gleaming strangely.
Katherine knew everything well.
When they came to the office, Ewan didn't hesitate, kicked the chair, and yelled, "Damn it. Katherine, you really dare to tell Grandma!"
"Why didn’t I dare?"
"You are not afraid of the exposure of your nude photos? You're not afraid that the fact that you were raped by Oskar spreads all over J City?!"
Ewan yelled fiercely.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Katherine pretended to be angry and yelled, "I was drunk last night. Oskar let us go. Charlie take me home. If you still say those stupid words, I’ll accuse you of slandering me."
Ewan was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
"It turns out that Oskar hasn't told you yet. No wonder you are so arrogant. It seems that I am too rash."
"I don't understand what you are talking about. Please go out immediately. Otherwise, I will call the security guards." Katherine pointed to the door.
