BXBX NOVEL Chapter 844: Are You All Deaf?
They quickly walked towards Thomas’s position.
“Sorry for keeping you all waiting. I had to handle some matters, so I arrived a bit late!”
Thomas faintly smiled and called out in a soft voice.
“Not late at all…”
Clyde quickly replied and then glanced at the people around Thomas.
He noticed that they were all familiar faces, all shareholders of the Empire World Corporation.
So after hesitating for a moment, Clyde asked Thomas in a low voice, “Mr. Thomas, didn’t Mr. Connor come with you?”
“Mr. Connor should have come by himself…”
Thomas replied calmly.
Upon hearing this, the expressions on the shareholders’ faces turned unpleasant.
“What’s wrong with all of you? Why do you have such strange expressions?”
Thomas, puzzled by the shareholders’ expressions, asked.
“Mr. Thomas, a person claimed to be the chairman of our Empire World Corporation just now, but we…”
Clyde stuttered.
Upon hearing this, Thomas’s eyes flickered with a hint of surprise, and he quickly furrowed his brows and asked, “Where is that person?”
“Over there…”
Clyde pointed to the location of Connor and Quenne.
Although Connor had his back to Thomas at the moment, Thomas could still recognize him at a glance.
“Mr. Connor came so early?”
Thomas murmured softly, then walked directly towards Connor.
The shareholders were stunned in their places. From Thomas’s reaction, they could sense that something seemed amiss.
“Connor, please, I beg you, leave here quickly. My parents spent a lot of money and effort to get me a job at the Empire World Corporation. If you cause a scene like this now, I might really be fired. I haven’t done anything to offend you before. Why are you doing this?” Quenne pleaded, pulling Connor’s arm, oblivious to the fact that Thomas and the others had already approached.
“I’ve told you, as long as I’m here, no one can fire you!”
Connor looked at her in front of him, his expression equally helpless.
At this moment, he was unsure how to explain to her.
“Mr. Clyde is a shareholder of the company. If he wants to fire me, he can. Don’t you know the situation in our company…”
Quenne said in a frustrated tone.
“I…”
Connor was about to say something when a stern voice suddenly sounded by Quenne’s ear.
Quenne couldn’t help but pause upon hearing the voice and quickly turned around to look. Then, she was dumbfounded.
Because the person standing beside her was none other than Thomas, the General Manager of the Empire World Corporation.
Thomas thought she didn’t recognize Connor’s identity and mistook him for a thief who had entered the company. That was why he spoke so seriously.
“Mr. Connor…”
Quenne timidly replied, her eyes filled with despair.
Because she had never expected that such a trivial matter would actually alarm someone of Thomas’s status.
“I asked you, what are you doing here?”
Thomas repeated the question, looking at Quenne with a stern gaze.
“I… I… I’m sorry, Mr. Thomas, I was wrong…”
Quenne was so frightened by Thomas that her words became incoherent, and she quickly bowed to him.
Upon seeing her state, Connor’s eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness. He then softly said, “Mr. Thomas, it seems like you have scared my friend…”
“Mr. Connor, is she your friend?”
Thomas turned his head to look at Connor and asked softly.
“Yes, she is my friend!”
Connor nodded gently.
“I apologize, Mr. Connor. I thought she was an employee who didn’t recognize you and wanted to drive you out!”
Thomas explained hurriedly to Connor.
“It’s fine…” he replied calmly.
Upon hearing Connor and Thomas’s conversation, Quenne, Clyde, and the others were all stunned in their places, wearing expressions of disbelief.
Everyone present could sense the respect in Thomas’s tone when he spoke to Connor, addressing him as ‘Mr. Connor’!
In the Emperor World Coperation, there was only one person who could be called “Mr. Connor,” and that person was Connor, the Chairman of the Emperor World Coperation.
“Connor, you…”
Quenne looked at Connor with a look of astonishment in her eyes.
“I told you, I am the Chairman of the Emperor World Coperation, but you never believed me!” he said tp her.
Quenne was instantly dumbfounded, her expression filled with shock.
Clyde and the other shareholders who had mocked Connor before were also frozen in place, staring wide-eyed at Connor’s position.
“Perhaps none of you know Mr. Connor, so let me introduce him to you. This is Connor, the Chairman of our company, Mr. Connor!”
Thomas seemed to have guessed what was going on when he saw the expressions on the shareholders’ faces.
So he walked to Connor’s side and introduced him expressionlessly.
Upon hearing Thomas’s words, everyone was dumbfounded, their mouths wide open, their expressions extremely shocked.
For a moment, the entire conference room fell into silence.
After hesitating for a moment, Clyde quickly ran to Connor’s front and excitedly shouted, “Mr. Connor, I’m really sorry! I didn’t recognize you earlier. Please don’t lower yourself to my level!”
Connor glanced at Clyde lightly, then asked him expressionlessly, “Quenne hasn’t done anything wrong today. I think your previous punishment towards her was too severe. Do you have any objections?”
“No objections, no objections, Mr. Connor. Whatever you say, I couldn’t possibly have any objections!”
Clyde quickly replied.
“Good, since you have no objections…”
Connor nodded slightly and continued, “From today onwards, I don’t want any of you shareholders to interfere in the company’s personnel matters. The company’s decisions regarding employees’ selection and punishment have nothing to do with you. You only need to focus on doing your own job, and you have no right to meddle in other matters. Understand?”
Upon hearing Connor’s words, everyone was stunned.
“Are you all deaf?”
Connor frowned and shouted.
“Understood, Mr. Connor!”
Clyde and the others quickly replied in a loud voice.
