Legend of Dragon Son-in-law

Chapter 403: 403

“What do you want with our Chairman?”

Dempsey Davenport looked at the people before her with great wariness.

It was obvious that they had ill intentions and were here to cause trouble for Quella Radcliffe.

“Our Chairman is in the office; I’ll take you in!”

Tess Radcliffe, on the other hand, was eager for someone to deal with Quella Radcliffe and volunteered to lead Bran Cook and his group.

At the moment, Bran Cook’s stomach was in unbearable pain, and despite a day having passed, he hadn’t recovered.

Sitting in a wheelchair, his eyes were filled with rage, and he didn’t even dare to speak.

Just uttering a word felt as if his insides were being torn apart, enduring inhuman torture.

But there was a flicker of excitement in his eyes!

Soon, Quella Radcliffe would kneel and beg for mercy!

To witness this moment with his own eyes was something he was overjoyed about!

So much so that despite being injured, he had to come over in a wheelchair.

“What are you doing!”

Dempsey Davenport wanted to stop them, but by then, Tess Radcliffe had already led the group inside.

For some reason, the usually obedient security guards today seemed to ignore the situation, letting these people barge in.

Normally, these men would definitely stand out and stop Bran Cook and his group.

“Forget it!”

Dempsey Davenport stomped her foot and called Quella Radcliffe upstairs.

She knew there was a lock on Quella Radcliffe’s door that no one but Quella Radcliffe herself could open.

As long as Quella Radcliffe didn’t agree, it was useless for these people to wait outside.

But to her surprise, Quella Radcliffe asked Dempsey Davenport to come upstairs too.

Even though Dempsey Davenport had explained the situation very clearly, Quella Radcliffe remained unmoved and insisted on letting these people in.

As she turned around, she noticed several cars parked at the entrance of the Group.

Dempsey Davenport was the financial director and often dealt with banks in Gonzalez City.

At that moment, seeing the people in the cars, she dropped her phone in fright!

Because all of these people were local bank presidents from Gonzalez City!

So many presidents gathered together, combined with the current financial situation of the Radcliffe Group.

The purpose of their visit was self-evident.

After picking up her phone, Dempsey Davenport hurried into the Group.

Meanwhile, in the Chairman’s office.

Quella Radcliffe sat in her chair, appearing nonchalant as she faced a number of entrepreneurs and senior executives of the Radcliffe Group.

“President Radcliffe, these people are here for you!”

Tess Radcliffe said in a mocking tone.

She had bullied Quella Radcliffe since they were young and had never stopped suppressing her in the company.

But Tess Radcliffe never imagined that there would come a day when Quella Radcliffe would become the Chairman of the Radcliffe Group!

This huge psychological gap made her feel very unbalanced, and she schemed to bring trouble to Quella Radcliffe.

However, Quella Radcliffe was a person of deep feelings. Faced with such petty actions from her own sister, she always pretended not to know.

“Is there something you need?”

Quella Radcliffe nodded at them, seemingly oblivious to the malice in their words.

“I said yesterday… I must… I must make you kneel down and beg for mercy…”

Bran Cook, who had been silent, finally spoke up.

His face was full of pain as he exerted all his strength to speak.

But these weak sounds reached everyone’s ears.

“Young Master Cook has already informed the presidents of all the major banks in Gonzalez City that Radcliffe Group is on the brink of bankruptcy and no longer has the ability to repay its debts.”

Although Graham Cook had been slapped, he clearly didn’t take the lesson to heart.

Especially since Amos Davenport wasn’t there, it gave him even more confidence!

“So what?”

Quella Radcliffe asked with a smile.

“So, the banks will demand that you repay the money! And it’s not just one bank, but they demand that you repay the money within three days!”

Graham Cook looked around Quella Radcliffe’s spacious chairman’s office and said with pride, “Otherwise, Radcliffe Group will be auctioned off! And all of those present will be left without jobs!”

“What! We’re going to be unemployed!”

“The assets that Grandpa left behind were meant to ensure we’d never have to worry about our livelihood! Now, thanks to Quella Radcliffe’s mess, we’re all going to be left out in the cold!”

“I knew it, when she took over she was bound to ruin the company! What are we going to do if we lose our jobs? How will I pay my mortgage and car loan?”

Graham Cook’s words set off huge waves among the crowd.

Some of the external employees were not too bad off; if Radcliffe Group collapsed, they could just go to another enterprise.

There were still many electronic enterprises in Gonzalez City, and finding a similar job wasn’t hard.

But for these members of the Radcliffe Clan, who had always been supported by Zade Radcliffe, they had no real skills and were just relying on the Radcliffe name to get by.

In fact, Quella Radcliffe was also supporting this group of freeloaders.

Dempsey Davenport had once suggested streamlining the organization, but Quella Radcliffe refused, using the excuse that she had just taken over the group.

After all, they were family, and she didn’t want to be too ruthless.

But it was clear that these Radcliffe family members were not appreciative.

Not only were they ungrateful, but they also began to resent Quella Radcliffe!

These people, without any real skills, would not be able to find work once they left Radcliffe Group.

Even if they could find a job, the pay and benefits could not compare to what they had at Radcliffe Group.

“Quella Radcliffe, it’s all because of you! Just get lost! Stop harming us! The old man was chairman for so many years and never had this happen!”

“Exactly! You’ve just taken over, and already you’ve turned the company upside down!”

Tess Radcliffe led the charge, cursing, and others joined in the chorus.

After all, they would face a significant financial crisis if they became unemployed.

“But…”

Just then, Bran Cook forcefully said, with a cold tone, “As long as Quella Radcliffe agrees to sell Radcliffe Group to me, I guarantee everyone’s benefits will remain the same, and you will continue working in your current positions.”

“Really? Quella Radcliffe, hurry up and sell the company! Think of it as accumulating some good karma, have some pity on us!”

“Don’t bring us down with you if you want to self-destruct and offend people! Hurry up and sell the company, otherwise, you’ll be our enemy!”

“If you don’t sell, I’ll go to your doorstep and curse you every day!”

Upon hearing these words, the Radcliffe Clan members, like grabbing a lifeline, attacked Quella Radcliffe with everything they had.

Bran Cook then sat in his chair, his face pale, silently watching how Quella Radcliffe would respond.

If it hadn’t been for Quella Radcliffe holding all of Radcliffe Group’s shares so tightly, he wouldn’t have had to go to such lengths!

Now he could only mobilize the employees’ power, forcing Quella Radcliffe to be left with nothing!

The money from acquiring the company would at most cover the debts signed by the company, essentially leaving Quella Radcliffe with nothing, completely cleaned out!

“Everyone, good day!”

Just then, as agreed upon, the bankers started arriving in Quella Radcliffe’s office.

Seeing them arrive, Bran Cook’s mouth curved into a slight arc.

“You see… cough, cough…”

He pointed weakly at the people behind him, “President Radcliffe, do you really want to go down with the ship? Are you truly not considering the life or death of your employees here? If it comes to that, then we’ll just have to proceed with the formalities! I no longer plan to take over.”

Bran Cook felt a surge of vengeful satisfaction in his heart.

“Of course, I could also give you a few months’ reprieve. The condition is, you kneel before me!”

He looked coldly at Quella Radcliffe.
