Chapter 2440 You Should Quit
Chapter 2440 You Should Quit
Larry deliberately stayed until the end of the meeting.
Eric had already returned to his office.
Everyone who came out of the conference room had already left that floor.
When Larry came out, no one else was there.
Only Mitchell was waiting conscientiously.
Seeing Larry, Mitchell smiled politely and said, “Mr. Yeager, it’s a great honor that you came to attend
this meeting in person.”
The corners of Larry’s mouth twitched.
“What else can I do? You guys bullied my daughter, and she didn’t dare to leave the house, so I ought
to come. Where’s Mr. Ferguson? If he’s free, I’d like to talk to him.”
Mitchell smiled. “Of course. Mr. Ferguson knew that you wanted to speak to him, so he deliberately
postponed his schedule and waited for you.”
Larry snorted coldly and went straight to Eric’s office.
Mitchell came in with two cups of coffee afterward.
At that time, the air in Eric’s office was condensed and stagnant.
Larry sat across from Eric with a cold and gloomy expression.
However, Eric’s complexion was as per usual — stern, indifferent, and unenthusiastic.
Seeing Eric like this made Larry even angrier.
However, Larry also knew that his purpose in coming here was not to make trouble.
The Yeager family was not strong enough to go against the Fergusons, but what Eric did really
embarrassed the Yeager family.
The rumors and gossip in the circle had already reached Larry’s ears. It was also obvious how restless
Cindy was at this moment.
Mitchell took the coffee and put it in front of Larry, but he did not leave immediately.
Larry glanced at Mitchell and did not speak.
Instead, Eric spoke in a deep voice, “The case has been handed over to the police. If Ms. Yeager is NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
wrongly accused, I will naturally make a public apology. If not, then there’s nothing to blame. Since she
did this, she has to bear the consequences. Mr. Yeager, you should understand this very well.”
Larry took a deep breath.
His face became darker.
“Mr. Ferguson, I thought we have reached a tacit understanding. Isn’t the purpose of this cooperation to
further the relationship between you and Cindy? Was I thinking too much?”
The room fell silent for a while.
Mitchell looked at Eric.
Eric glanced out of the window silently with a calm and indifferent expression.
“No, I just didn’t want to continue this relationship halfway through. Ms. Yeager is indeed outstanding,
but she doesn’t have the right intentions. I won’t use my son to please women. To put it bluntly, I only
want a marriage partner, not a lover who will get bitter or jealous. If she can’t even accept this, then
there’s no need to continue the cooperation. She didn’t pass my test, so you don’t have to question
me.”
For a moment, there was a stalemate between them.
Larry clenched his teeth. His eyes were a little cold as he stared at Eric with hostility.
“That’s a high-sounding reason. Now, everyone in the circle is questioning my family’s reputation.
Although you don’t like my daughter, you shouldn’t have made the situation so tense, right?”
“Ms. Yeager made her own choice. No one forced her to do that.”
After Eric finished speaking, he took a sip of the coffee in front of him and put it back in its original
place.
Larry was about to lose his temper, which was in stark contrast with Eric’s calmness.
At last, Mitchell coughed and interrupted the silence.
“President, I think it’s more urgent to solve this matter first. The rumors in the circle won’t benefit our
company.
After all, Eric’s ruthlessness was evident to everyone in the circle.
If Eric did one more ruthless deed, it would be even more detrimental to his reputation.
Larry raised his eyes and eased his expression.
Eric pursed his lips and muttered, “How about this, Mr. Yeager? If you withdraw from the current
project, I can ask the police to withdraw the case and not pursue Ms. Yeager’s responsibility.”
Larry suddenly stood up and widened his eyes.
“What did you say? This project is about to be launched on the market, and the prospects are bright.
You want me to withdraw at this moment? Eric, you’re really clever, huh? You want to get rid of me after
using me?!”
Larry’s face turned red with anger as he pointed at Eric and cursed.
Eric was calm and had no intention to get mad.
Instead, Eric chuckled lightly with a bit of indifference and disdain.
“I extended the offer to you in the first place, so there’s nothing wrong with me taking it back now.
Otherwise, how could your company get this project without my help?”
“But you can’t just ask me to withdraw from this project at this time!”
Larry took a deep breath and organized his thoughts.
“Mr. Ferguson, I apologize for my attitude. I was too anxious just now, and I think we should talk
properly.”
Larry was now fully focused on the project and did not really care about his daughter’s grievances.
“My company has contributed a lot to this project and did almost all of the preliminary work. How could I
just withdraw from the project now?”
Eric’s eyes were impatient and indifferent.
Eric shrugged. He looked indifferent, reckless, and cynical.
He was ruthless by giving Larry the right to choose, but no matter what, he was the party that benefited
the most.
Eric was not a saint, so why should he care about doing them a favor?
Besides, he did not owe the Yeagers anything.
This happened because he had something on Cindy.
“You…” Updated at Drąmanovеls.cоm
Larry gritted his teeth angrily. His pale face gradually turned livid.
It was clear that Larry was forcibly suppressing his anger and humiliation.
He glared at Eric, turned around, and strode out of the office.
Mitchell looked at Larry, and then at Eric.
“Should we let them go?”
Eric looked at Larry’s back in thought.
“There’s no rush…”
