Chapter 652: Chapter 652: Has He Grown a Bear’s Gallbladder?
"Why? This was probably the funniest thing Brandon Piers had heard today.
A pair of amber-colored, narrow eyes looked coldly at the person on the ground.
Even though there was a distance between them, Nathan Moses was still intimidated by Master Brandon’s aura. He sobered up a little. Who knew that those boozy friends in the private room would rush over? Under everyone’s gaze, Nathan didn’t want to lose face. He thought about the imminent changes at the company’s top level. The alcohol emboldened him. "Don’t think I don’t know. You’re just a fancy figurehead without real power. Sooner or later, you’ll be kicked out of the board. What right do you have to fire my dad?"
This sentence made Abigail frown, her eyes turning cold.
Everyone else looked at the person on the ground in shock. Did he have a bear’s courage? Of all people to provoke, he chose this one? Did Fish Leong give him this courage?
"Really?" Brandon asked gently, smiling while thinking to himself that the third branch’s movements in the company were quite significant. Even the riffraff knew he was about to be ousted.
"Naturally." Seeing Brandon’s gentle smile, Nathan thought Brandon was afraid and answered more confidently.
"Thank you for informing me in advance, so I can be prepared." Brandon kept smiling. At this moment, the person in charge of April Sky arrived covered in sweat. Seeing that Nathan had collided with these big shots, his legs went weak, and he almost knelt.
Nathan mistakenly thought the general manager was there to soothe him. "Manager Lee, look at what happened today. If they don’t apologize to me, I won’t let April Sky off."
Manager Lee shot a fierce glare at the person on the ground, wiping cold sweat from his brow as he approached. First, he respectfully apologized to David Locke, then bowed deeply to the remaining four in the private room. "CEO Piers, Young Master Roberts, Captain Scout, Second Young Master, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault for allowing this disturbance. From today on, April Sky will never entertain him again. Please, let your anger subside."
"Oh, I heard his father is a senior executive at Piers?" Noel Roberts asked lazily.
"Yes, this is Nathan Moses, the only son of Piers’ shareholder, Maurice Moses." Manager Lee did not hesitate to sell out Nathan completely.
The drunk Nathan felt emboldened by the dim lighting and couldn’t see the people inside clearly. He didn’t notice Manager Lee’s cautious titles. Hearing that his identity was laid bare, he struggled to his feet and cursed, "Fuck, I’ve spent a fortune here, and you’re saying you’ll never host me again?"
"Someone, help Young Master Moses sober up," Manager Lee bitterly wanted to cover Nathan’s mouth but couldn’t, so he ordered security.
Security immediately stepped forward to hold Nathan. He struggled but couldn’t break free, being dragged out like a dog.
Brandon, though not familiar with Nathan, knew who Maurice Moses was. Maurice was the first to sell his shares to Oliver Piers and became a senior executive benefiting from the third branch’s dividends. He was also its most fervent supporter.
Thinking of this, Brandon slightly curled his lips, his gaze falling on the reluctant Nathan being dragged away. "Wait."
The others raised their eyebrows simultaneously, looking somewhat sympathetically at Nathan.
Nathan, finally released, furiously kicked the security guard who had dragged him. He looked back at Brandon triumphantly. "What? Now you realize you can’t afford to offend me?"
"Yes, indeed, I can’t afford to offend you. Thank you, Young Master Moses, for informing me. I’ll cover tonight’s expenses at April Sky." Brandon smiled and then looked at Manager Lee. "Go, arrange a new private room for Young Master Moses and prepare a gift for me to thank Director Moses."
"Yes." Manager Lee glanced at Michael Piers’ direction and immediately made arrangements.
Nathan, full of pride, pointed at Mary Scott, who was cowering not far away. "And her, I want her tonight."
David Locke almost laughed out loud. This idiot was so arrogant on his dying day. He was about to speak when he felt the woman behind him shrink and tug at his sleeve. "Please, don’t hand me over to him."
Mary had just seen this scumbag force-feed a bottle of liquor to a female saleswoman in the outer hall. He had then pressed her down in the booth for a blow job before dragging her to the restroom. She couldn’t bear to watch and had intervened, only to be tangled up.
She couldn’t imagine what the outcome would be if she were handed over now.
"Your conditions." David Locke, who had been ready to intervene, stopped after hearing Mary and coldly threw out two words.
Mary blushed, unsure if it was because she had drunk some, or because of the man’s opportunistic behavior. Nathan had come to grab her. Utterly desperate, she whispered to David, "I’ll sign. I agree to sign that contract."
"Oh." David’s tone held no discernible emotion, but he instructed Manager Lee, "Take Young Master Moses to a private room."
"Young Master Moses, this way." Manager Lee extended his hand to Nathan.
Nathan was about to start cursing when the security guard he had kicked earlier firmly pressed his shoulder down. "Young Master Moses, please."
"Ah..." The security guard did not hold back. Nathan howled in pain. Before he could say anything, seeing the gloating looks from the few in the private room, sobered up. Shivering, he was dragged out of the room without another word.
Mary let out a big breath. Her legs almost gave out, nearly causing her to fall to the ground, but David caught her arm in time.
"Th... thank you." Mary apologized nervously.
David scoffed coldly at her. "You’re here to serve drinks?"
"No, I... I’m not..." Mary quickly denied.
But David just glanced at her outfit and snorted.
Mary knew he didn’t believe her. "I’m here to sell drinks, not to serve."
"What’s the difference?" David sneered. This woman, who displayed such strong character in front of him during the day, now had a different approach at night. What a two-faced woman.
Mary’s face turned pale, and she stopped trying to explain, knowing that the more she said, the more humiliating it would be.
"Pullan, have the waiter bring this lady a cup of hot tea." When the atmosphere couldn’t get any more tense, Abigail suddenly stepped forward, taking Mary’s trembling hand, and instructed Pullan. Then, she kindly asked Mary, "I need to go to the restroom. Want to come with me?"
Panicky Mary gratefully nodded at Abigail.
David might have disregarded others’ faces but couldn’t ignore Second Young Master’s fiancée’s. "Trouble Miss Green for this."
Abigail flashed a faint smile and led the girl to the restroom.
Only then did the others turn to David.
David pretended not to notice and sat back down.
Noel Roberts, always enjoying a good show, winked at Michael Piers. "This is the gift second young master prepared for Director Locke? Not bad. She’s a beauty."
David gave him a side glance. "If you like her so much, why not have Second Young Master give you one?"
Noel shivered. "No, thanks. I have no interest in beauties."
"Oh, then men?" David snapped back.
Noel, speechless, thought, "Is it worth it just because I called your woman a gift?"
