Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 352

Pitkin was outrageous as he said, "It was just a sappy meeting. I didn't preside over it. Why did you ask me to be there?"

"You are not in charge of today's meeting, but it is held specially for you." Essie said in a gentle and cold voice.

Pitkin couldn't help shivering, and he felt uneasy when he saw Essie's deep eyes.

He tried his best to keep calm and sat in his seat, "Just say it. Don't hold me up. Let's get to the point. Don't delay my golden chance for my big development." He was cursing and intended to teach Essie a lesson. She didn't even have the chance to sit tight, but she dared to touch the Wang family. She was totally asking for death!

Without uttering a single word, Essie glanced at Vinton and decided to let him preside over the first half of the meeting.

"Grin." Vinton's voice was slow and clear, "On May 2, a company known as Sea Industry sent ten million dollars to your account. Please explain the origin of the huge remittance."

Grin felt a pang of nervousness, "I... I just did some private business outside."

"What kind of private business?" Vinton asked.

Grin was trembling and could not speak.

"Let me speak for you." Vinton snorted, "Someone gave you a sum of money to switch the newly purchased diamonds from Millennium Company, right?"

Grin was frightened that he was sweat all over his back. He couldn't help but look at Pitkin. Pitkin tried his best to keep calm, and there was only a piece of flesh on his face bouncing violently.

"Godin from the Warehouse Department stole the diamond. Hasn't he admitted it? He even handed out the stolen diamond. It has nothing to do with me," Grin argued.

"I'll give you one more chance. As long as you are honest and confess the identity of the mastermind, you will be dealt with lenient from Millennium Company," Vinton said seriously.

Grin wiped the sweat on his forehead, and when he was about to speak, he heard the low cough of Pitkin, so he quickly shut his mouth. "This matter... It really has nothing to do with me. You can't just accuse me to have switched the diamond only judging from the money on my account. You have to show evidence to prove everything."

"You have lost your chance." Vinton's eyes narrowed with menace. He took out his phone and showed the video to the liquid crystal display. It was from Godin's son who handed it to Malcolm. Grin came to see Godin, in an excuse to help him to cure his son, and let him take all the charges. Godin's son couldn't bear to see his father take the risk for his own life because of his sickness, so he secretly recorded their conversation.

Grin slid down from his chair and sat on the floor limply.

"Now you'd better tell me honestly who gave you orders," Vinton said.

Grin sneaked a glance at Pitkin. When he received his warning eyes, he lowered his head and did not speak.

But Essie knew that he didn't dare to speak it out, and she didn't care at all whether he could testify or not. It wouldn't stop the ongoing of the meeting. She would be the host of the crucial final part of the meeting.

"Well, you can leave the matter of Grin to the police. Now let's talk about the Xu's foundation." She said slowly, "The reason why Mr. Baron founded this foundation is to help people in need of help in the society. But when a man like Uncle Godin who was in need of help came to see the charity foundations, he was rejected. Where did the annual funding of 100 million dollars spend?" All of a sudden, Essie raised her voice and snapped at them, which scared someone in the room.

In the huge conference room, everyone sighed.

Essie turned to look at Pitkin and said, "Mr. Wang, as the vice president of the foundation, can you explain it to everyone?"

"Of course the fund for the charity is used to donate money to Hope primary school, disaster stricken area and poverty-stricken mountainous area. For something as trivial as Godin's, you don't have to use the money of the foundation," Mr. Wang replied unhurriedly.

"Then which Hope primary school do you donate to and which disaster stricken area?" Essie stared at him coldly.

I don't know the details. All of them were done by other staff." Pitkin snorted.

"Of course you know, because they are all in the account of the company called Sea Industry!" Essie said in a cold voice, like a slap in the face.

Everyone was shocked.

"Isn't that the company who transferred money to Grin and instructed him to steal diamond from us?" said one of the supervisors.

"What kind of company is this? How dare they do this!" another one said angrily.

Pitkin gave her a black look to Essie, "If you are able to do that, you can go to look up that Sea Industry. Stop talking nonsense with me here. These things have nothing to do with me."

Essie snorted. "If I hadn't found it out, I wouldn't have held this staff meeting for you."
