“But what does it have to do with you exposing the truth?” The reporter looked at the woman, waiting for her to answer.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on the woman’s face. “The person who saved our son happens to be the girlfriend of the CEO of the Klein Group. I was shocked and ashamed when I found out. She saved our son and was very kind to him. But I framed her boyfriend’s company. What kind of a mother am I? So, we are really, really sorry, Klein Group. Please accept our apology.” As she said this, the woman bowed deeply.
Corbett was too stunned to react for a while.
Meanwhile, the comment section of this live broadcast was abuzz with comments.
“What? Are you kidding me? Is that really the case? Is this woman serious?”
“It’s so dramatic! Fortunately, the child was saved.”
“I was right all along. Howard’s phone is really good. He was only framed intentionally. At least everyone knows now.”
“Karma is real. Whatever you do will come back to you. So, if you do bad, you will be punished.”
“This couple doesn’t know who bribed them to frame the Klein Group. But I know it must be Corbett. Believe me, I am very sure about it.”
“Yes, I agree. Corbett covets the Klein Group. It must be him.”
Now that the truth had been revealed, all suspicions fell on Corbett. Even the board of directors couldn’t help looking at him doubtfully.
Of course, they were more discerning than the netizens. No one would do such a thing except Corbett.
Corbett’s face darkened when he saw everyone staring at him. He snapped, “Why are you looking at me like that? I didn’t do anything.”
“So, it wasn’t you who did it? Did you exploit this incident to push Grandpa into unconsciousness and then seize the position of CEO? Corbett, do you really think I’m stupid?”
As he spoke, Andrew’s eyes were extremely cold. The powerful aura his body emanated made everyone hold their breath.
Corbett said through clenched teeth, “Andrew, stop accusing me. If I say I didn’t do it, I didn’t do it!”
After he said this, the conference room door suddenly opened.
“Someone reported that Corbett Klein had… Andrew Klein. Mr. Corbett Klein, please come with us.” One police officer went straight to Corbett.
Corbett’s face instantly darkened.
The directors silently averted their gazes.
How could Corbett win the battle against Andrew? The directors who had supported Corbett earlier became even more nervous. They wondered if Andrew would fire them for this.
Bruno was the first to react. He said anxiously, “Officer, it’s just a misunderstanding. My son is not that kind of person.”
“Don’t worry. We will figure it out through our investigation.” The police took Corbett away forcibly.
The conference room instantly quieted down.
Everyone fixed their eyes on Andrew nervously.
Andrew said nothing, but his slender fingers kept tapping the table. The sound was very conspicuous since there was pin-drop silence in the spacious conference room.
Andrew’s supporters didn’t say anything either. They just silently watched the show. At the same time, they felt that those who had supported Corbett were too stupid. Andrew had been in his position for many years and made remarkable achievements. Did they really think he was easy to betray and force to step down?
Could it be? Corbett was not even half as good as Andrew.
The directors who had supported Corbett broke out in a cold sweat. The sound of Andrew tapping the table was like a curse from hell, making them tremble with fear.
In the end, someone could no longer bear the pressure. He said, “Mr. Klein, didn’t expect Corbett to be so hateful and vicious. To seize power, he even framed the company. We’ve all been deceived by him. Someone like him can never be the CEO of our company.”
“Yes, if he became the CEO, he would ruin the company!”
“Yes, we have been deceived!”
The other directors who had supported Corbett also spoke up.
“The most crucial aspect for the company is unity, as my grandfather always emphasized. Clearly, some have failed to uphold this. Thus, the board can do without such individuals,” Andrew spoke these words slowly and with a frosty tone. Once he finished, he rose and exited the room.
The attendees in the meeting room were taken aback. They understood that Andrew intended to dismiss those who had supported Corbett!
They were board members, while Andrew, though the CEO, had not yet been officially handed the company by Damari!
How could Andrew dismiss them?
They felt a mix of anger and fear. Losing their jobs meant losing their lavish lifestyles!
“In my view, you brought this upon yourselves. You knew the sort of people Bruno and Corbett are.” The other directors showed no sympathy. Such rotten apples would only damage the company.
Bruno’s and Dora’s faces turned pale with anger.
“Damn it! What the hell is happening?”
Outside the conference room, Dora urged Bruno, “Darling, please figure out how to help Corbett!”
“He’s just useless!” Bruno seethed with resentment. He felt fate was grossly unfair. He couldn’t match up to his older brother, nor could his son compare to his nephew. Why?
At the police station, the couple was detained for conspiracy.
Tears streamed down the woman’s face as she looked at Isabella. “I admit my mistakes. I’m ready to face the consequences. I just want to see my son. I’ve done everything you asked. Can I see him now?”
“Okay,” Isabella replied.
She went out and returned with the young boy beside her.
Upon seeing his parents, the boy ran to them.
As the woman embraced her son, she sighed with relief and held him close. At that moment, she realized that although they were short of money, they should use the right ways to earn it.
“Sweetheart, please take care of yourself at home, okay? I’ll have your grandma look after you.” Tears fell as she caressed her son.
The boy looked up, his eyes wide with confusion. “Mom, why? Where are you and Dad going?”
Tears welled up as the boy said, “Mom, are you leaving me again? NO, you can’t do this again!”
He was terrified.
The woman’s heart sank with guilt, and she began to cry. She realized the truth: good actions bring good results, and bad actions bring bad consequences. It was because they had chosen to frame the Klein Group that their son had been sold by that evil woman.
If only she hadn’t harbored ill intentions, her son wouldn’t have been taken away.
Thankfully, her son was returned to her.
“Colin, I’m not leaving for good. I just have some matters to handle. Stay well with Grandma,” she said, though her voice quivered with emotion.
The man, with tears in his eyes, said to the boy, “Colin, remember, Dad and Mom love you the most. Make sure you listen to Grandma at home.”
The boy was sad to leave his parents.
The woman, distressed, looked at Isabella and pleaded, “Miss Patton, I’m sorry. I know we should not have involved you because we made serious mistakes, but please, our child is innocent. Could you perhaps visit him occasionally while we’re away?”
Isabella understood that despite this couple’s faults, they loved their son dearly.
“Okay,” Isabella said.
The boy was indeed in a pitiful state.
He was so young, yet he faced separation from his parents.
Isabella led him out of the police station. He looked back at his parents reluctantly. Once in the car, he bowed his head and asked, “Did my mom and dad do something wrong?”
