Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1220

Chapter 1220 Hadfield Group’s Board Meeting

Nicholas was currently in his study, working overtime. Soon, Andrew knocked on the door before entering with Edward Nicholas saw Edward and asked coldly, “Who is it?”

“It was Oliver,” Edward reported truthfully. Nicholas wasn’t surprised, but his face turned sullen at the namedrop. Oliver! Him again!

“Considering how the fool still has the free time to provoke us constantly, it seems like the Hadfield Group’s situation isn’t as dire as we thought. If that’s the case, let’s give him something to do!”

Although his tone was cold, it was filled with fury. Edward looked at the angry president and quietly marked a plot for Oliver’s grave in his heart.

This man really won’t stop unless he’s dead.

Nicholas didn’t know what Edward was thinking.

Nicholas’ eyes were half-lidded as he recalled something. “Come here.”

He motioned for Edward.

Edward walked over obediently.

Then, Nicholas murmured a few instructions in his ears and said coldly, “Do you understand?”

“Yes, sir. I’ll get it done now.”

Edward shoved his surprise into a box, nodded, and left to fulfill his orders.

…

The Hadfield Group, who finally had some peace, made the news again.

‘Shocking! The president of the Hadfield Group had been stealing and embezzling public funds to satisfy his own needs!’

‘Behind Oliver Hadfield’s hedonism is the Hadfield Group, which is in financial crisis.’

‘Hadfield Group’s fake accounts have been exposed!’

The citizens were in an uproar as soon as the news headlines came out.

‘Tsk tsk tsk, I always thought Oliver was wealthy. It turns out he was just embezzling the public’s funds.’

‘Making fake accounts is illegal. So, it’s over for Oliver and the Hadfield Group now.’

‘It’s for the city’s betterment for companies like these to be shut down sooner.’

Unfortunately, Oliver was still his son at the end of the day. So, even if he was angry, all he could do was defend him for now.

That was because if Oliver had been sacked from his position, coupled with his semi-retired status, it would be difficult for the Hadfield Family to have the final say in the Hadfield Group.

“Everyone, Oliver has grown up amongst us. You all know how he is. I think someone is pulling the strings behind the news,” he tried to reassure the directors at the table.

Regrettably, those words did not affect the people attending the meeting.

One of them snorted coldly, “That doesn’t matter. People change.”

“There wouldn’t be a scandal if there was no such situation. Chairman Hadfield, you shouldn’t be speaking in tongues here.”

“We came here today to ask for a thorough investigation of the accounts of the Hadfield Group over the past few years. We also want to revoke Oliver’s position as president.”

“Hadfield Group has had accidents occurring one after another under Oliver’s poor management. Now that something like this has happened, it’s better for the company if it was managed by someone better suited to the position.”

Francis didn’t know how to turn the tides in the face of their unyielding stances.

As for Oliver, he was utterly flummoxed.

He had just solved the situation that those two women caused. Yet, the instant the storm had settled, another issue had broken out, catching him off guard.
