Surely, thats a sufficient punishment.
Another added, Mrs. Rhodes has always been known for her fairness.
If this is the judgment shes made, it should be enough.
The elder who Kingsley had previously slapped glared at him and said furiously, Mr. Baldwin, why do you keep harping on Mr. Rhodes? What are you trying to achieve? Kingsley shook his head, his gaze filled with disdain.
He said calmly, You’re all nothing but accomplices, birds of a feather flocking together.
Thats exactly why Rhodes Corporation is in todays mess
Michael and his supporters immediately bristled, ready to hurl insults and accusations at Kingsley, their anger boiling over.
However, Tianas icy voice cut through the tension like a blade.
Enough! she commanded.
Let him continue.
I want to hear everything he has to say.
Lets see if he can back up his bold claims with anything worthwhile.

Kingsley smiled faintly and said, Mrs. Rhodes, your wisdom is admirable.
Allow me to elaborate further on what it truly means to uphold fairness and justice with clear rewards and punishments.
First, Kingsley continued, the punishment for Michael is far too lenient.
Given the gravity of his mistake, theres no need for further deliberation he should be immediately reassigned to a lower department.
Making him a department manager or supervisor would suffice.
Letting him keep a supervisory role is already plenty generous.
Michaels anger flared, barely restrained
He felt as though Kingsley was stabbing him in the heart.
A department manager or supervisor? That was a massive demotion, pushing him miles away from ever reaching the CEO position.
The audacity of Kingsley to suggest such a punishment felt like a public flogging.
Tiana, with a cold sneer, interjected, Youve spoken about punishments
Now, isnt it time to talk about the rewards you think are warranted? Kingsley, unfazed by the sarcasm in her tone, carried on as if he hadnt noticed.
Indeed, Mrs. Rhodes, its time to discuss the individuals who deserve substantial recognition Under the scornful glares of several executives, Kingsley calmly pointed to Lauren and said, The first is our vice CEO, Ms. Rhodes.
She may not hold the position of the companys president, but she certainly takes on responsibilities befitting one.
When Troy leaked the formula, she was the first to notice something was amiss.
Moreover, it was she who uncovered Ruby as the corporate spy and did her utmost to stop her. Though she was unable to fully prevent it, due to Michaels poor judgment, Ms. Rhodes contributions cannot be overlooked
At the very least, its thanks to her that Rubys treachery was exposed
Even though Ruby managed to obtain Rhodes Pharmaceuticals formula, the fraudulent nature of the so called partnership between Rhodes Pharmaceutical and Amberpeak Corporation has now been revealed.
In short, Lauren, single handedly, has saved the company from incalculable losses
Therefore, she rightfully deserves the highest merit for her efforts! Kingsleys words flowed smoothly, his confidence unwavering.
Laurens cheeks flushed as she listened.
She didnt think of herself as being nearly as impressive as Kingsley described, but his glowing praise left her feeling both surprised and flattered
However, being praised so openly front of so many people made her a bit self conscious.
Stealing a glance at Tiana, she was startled to see that Tiana didnt sneer or mock.
Instead, she nodded in agreement and said, Indeed
Laurens performance in this matter is worthy of the highest commendation.
Michaels heart sank, and he couldnt hold back.
Aunt Tiana- Tiana raised a hand to silence him.
Be grateful I’m not demoting you to a department head.
So, at this point, its best if you don’t entertain any more unreasonable thoughts Crushed and humiliated, Michael bit his tongue, though inwardly he burned with fury, wishing he could tear Kingsley apart.
Kingsley continued, The first merit goes to Lauren
As for the second, I believe it should go to the former head of the Pharmaceutical Division, Mr. Chapman
Standing quietly in a corner, Marcus, who had been trying to avoid everyones gaze, involuntarily looked up in shock at Kingsley.
His expression was a mixture of surprise, joy, and unease
He didnt want Kingsley to risk confronting Tiana on his behalf
Knowing Tianas personality, pushing her too far would only provoke a harsh reaction.
Marcus wasnt afraid of suffering further consequences himself; he had already resigned himself to his fate.
However, he couldnt bear the thought of Kingsley or Lauren being dragged into trouble because of him. Summoning his courage, Marcus stepped forward and said Mr. Baldwin, the punishment Ive already received was well deserved.
Please… don’t speak on my behalf anymore.
Im content with things as they are now.
Kingsley snorted coldly.
I said I’d help you get justice, and I always keep my word.
Turning to Tiana, Kingsley continued, The former director of the Pharmaceutical Division was Mr. Chapman.
But Michael, using a fabricated excuse, removed Mr. Chapman from his position and replaced him with one of his cronies
With tactics like that, its no surprise that Rhodes Corporations Pharmaceutical Division ended up in such a mess
Theres only one phrase for this: they deserved it.
Michaels face contorted with rage.
Kingsley, instead of thinking about how to help the company recover its losses, are you going to just stand here and make sarcastic remarks ? Kingsley glanced at him dismissively.
Trash is trash.
If you can’t handle criticism after making a mistake, you might as well just end it all by smashing your head against the wall
Tiana smirked playfully
Youve said all that, so you’re implying you want me to give the position of director of the Pharmaceutical Division back to Mr. Chapman, right? Kingsley replied earnestly, No, I’m not asking you to give it back.
That position belongs to Marcus by right.
Now that Troy is done for, looking across the entire company, Mr. Chapman deserves fair treatment.
He should be reinstated to his original role.
Tiana nodded.
Fine.
As you suggest, Mr. Chapman will resume his position as director of the Pharmaceutical Division.
Marcus, who had long since given up hope and expected nothing, froze in disbelief.
Tiana, known for her cold indifference, had actually agreed to give him another chance ? For someone like her, a Pharmaceutical Division director was an insignifican’t figure, barely worth a second glance. Even if Marcus had been outright fired, Tiana likely wouldnt have batted an eye.
Then, a sudden realization struck Marcus like a jolt of lightning.
No, it wasnt that Tiana was willing to give him a chance.
It was Kingsley who had convinced her, securing a fair resolution for him.
Gratitude swelled in Marcuss chest, an emotion he hadnt felt in a long time.
Kingsley and Lauren had gone all out to help him, sparing no effort.
While Marcuss heart was filled with joy, Michael was far from calm.
Aunt Tiana, I believe the position of pharmaceutical director is critical, Michael argued.
Since Marcus has already been transferred to another department, bringing him back would be inconsistent.
Its like playing a game with personnel changes, and that kind of instability isnt good for the company.
Moreover, Michael added, Ive already identified someone even more qualified than Troy to take on the role of director.
Tiana raised an eyebrow, her tone sharp.
I don’t care who you want to promote
I just have one question for you: if you put your person in the directors chair, can you guarantee theyll recover the departments losses and restore Rhodes Pharmaceuticals most profitable division ? Michael froze, his expression shifting between anger and fear.
Uh… I will certainly try my best, he stammered
He knew he couldnt make that promise, so he resorted to vague assurances.
Tianas tone turned icy.
Try your best? Thats meaningless, just empty words.
