My Ex-husband Begs Me Back

Chapter 1573: Passive

The general consensus was to temporarily withdraw from the SynergyCon project since the internal investigation showed no connection to the Simpson Group, implying that it was related to another company.

However, other companies were unwilling to admit their involvement. Mutual investigations wouldn't lead to a complete resolution, posing the biggest obstacle to the situation.

Ayan, of course, was reluctant to withdraw from the SynergyCon project. In his dictionary, there was no such thing as giving up halfway or backing down. He believed in persevering until a solution presented itself.

Ayan's steadfast attitude gradually made the atmosphere tense.

Several senior shareholders instinctively looked at Fletcher, their voices carrying a plea, "Mr. Fletcher, can you try to persuade Mr. Simpson?"

Fletcher also glanced at Ayan subconsciously and spoke calmly, "Let's take our time to discuss this matter, Ayan. Don't be too rigid in your words. If this project brings too many negative consequences for Simpson Group, it will have a significant impact on us. So, let's have a thorough conversation before making a decision, shall we?"

After Fletcher finished speaking, Ayan's voice followed, indifferent in tone, "Mr. Fletcher, at the moment, Simpson Group is under my control. My words have the final decision-making power. I hope you understand and support that."Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Ayan showed no respect for Fletcher, rejecting his request and displaying an extremely cold and emotionless expression.

He stared at Fletcher coldly and then glanced at the shareholders who had just sought Fletcher's assistance, saying, "If you have anything to say, speak directly. There's no need to find anyone to persuade me If your proposal is beneficial to the company, I will fully support it. But if it's of no use and only brings internal conflicts, then it's unnecessary!"

After Ayan finished speaking, he stood up from his seat and left the conference room. Kian immediately followed him. However, Ayan's departure did not alleviate the heavy atmosphere in the meeting room; instead, it became even more oppressive.

Everyone exchanged looks, examining each other's expressions, but ultimately, they couldn't glean much. They held their breath and looked at Fletcher, not daring to breathe heavily.

However, Fletcher smiled gently and said, "We apologize for the trouble. The child has grown, and we have grown old. We can no longer influence him."

Although Fletcher spoke with a smile, his words carried a sense of helplessness.

Naturally, everyone tried to console him. Those who had sought Fletcher's help in persuading Ayan quickly said, "Mr. Fletcher, please don't say that. Mr. Simpson has his own thoughts, and we all agree. Don't take it to heart. His actions are for the good of the Simpson Group. It's our fault, causing conflict between you and Mr. Simpson father and son."

Fletcher didn't mind and just chuckled softly, saying, "No need to feel guilty or blame yourselves. This matter is already in the past. We're getting old. Let's not worry about such things. Let them be!"

Although these words seemed to express dissatisfaction with Ayan, the content gave people a burning sensation, as if they had been slapped in the face, feeling the pain but unable to find evidence of the blow Compared to the self-reflection in the meeting room, the atmosphere in Ayan's office became much quieter.

Kian also remained silent, observing Ayan sitting at his desk, loosening his tie. Ayan's face showed a profoundly somber and indifferent expression. After hesitating for a while, Kian cautiously spoke up, "Mr. Simpson, was it not good to argue with Mr. Fletcher just now?"

Ayan raised an indifferent eyebrow and looked at Kian, "Why wouldn't it be good?"

Kian paused and silently asked himself the question again. Then he whispered, "Will Mr. Fletcher get angry?"

"I hope to keep personal matters separate. Since it's related to the company, everything should be treated as work." So he didn't think there would be any problem.

Ayan didn't want to continue the topic. He asked Kian to contact the head of the PR department and have them come to the office. This matter needed to be dealt with immediately.

The person claiming to be a relative of the victim had already traced his IP address, so should they directly contact the police to talk to him?

Initially, the other party agreed to sit down and talk, but then, in the time it took for him to turn around and go. to the restroom, he released a video and a distress message: "Save me!!! Leaders, join the police and come to my house. They said if I dont

cooperate, I won't see

sun

tomorrow!"

As soon as this distress message was posted, many netizens immediately responded below: "I'm coming right away, don't be afraid. Wait for me to rescue you!!"

"Are the police also bribed? Are they all in the hands of the leaders? It feels like us ordinary people are really struggling. Shouldn't we stick together?"

"I think the person above is right. We should stick together. Only by sticking together can we ensure our safety. It looks really scary!!"

"We should protest together. We need to let society know about this matter. Only when everyone knows can we be protected."

The netizens started a conversation, with each one adding their own words, all of them accusing the bosses of the companies involved in the SynergyCon project.

The situation escalated instantly. Ayan's approach was to release clarification messages together with the content of the dialogue with the police, in collaboration with several companies. But no one believed it. They thought it was all staged.

Now they were in a situation where it was hard to defend themselves, and it seemed that nothing they said could convince anyone.

This situation put Simpson Group in

a very passive position. Camille was one of the first to see this matter, and naturally, she was very worried. But it wasn't appropriate to contact Ayan or Kian at the moment. They were extremely busy, so it wouldn't she said.

be suitable no matter who?

On the other hand, there was news from Yessica. Yessica rushed to Camille's office as soon as she got the information.

She looked flustered and said, "Cami, something happened."

Camille instinctively looked at Yessica and asked, "What happened?"

Yessica hurriedly said, "Kian said Mr. Simpson had a quarrel with Mr. Fletcher!"

Yessica's expression was filled with excitement and nervousness. In fact, what Kian had said to her was just a small disagreement between Ayan and Fletcher, nothing more. But when it came out of Yessica's mouth, it turned into a quartel

between father and son.

Camille was stunned when she heard it, and then immediately stood up from her desk. She asked Yessica while getting dressed, "When did it happen? Just now?"

Yessica replied, "I don't know. I just heard it from Kian, and I came to tell you right away."

Yessica was also very worried because Ayan and Fletcher seemed to have a good relationship. She had heard Kian mention it before, so why did they suddenly start arguing?

Camille furrowed her brow tightly. She quickly called Talia and, while talking to Yessica, said, "I have to leave now."

Yessica nodded, and Camille turned off her computer and hurriedly left the company.

The call was answered.
