Chapter 694 – Three Groups
The four men, who remained behind, looked at Boris with serious expressions. Boris noticed their presence and looked at them. "Why are you four still here? I have said that the meeting is over."
One of them hurriedly replied, "Please don't say something like that. I have been with the company since your father's era. No matter what, I won't abandon this company."
"That's right. It's not that easy to destroy the bond we have formed between us." Another guy nodded furiously.
"This company has nurtured me since I was young. My life and death will be together with the company."
Boris widened his eyes and smiled. "You guys…"
When they were about to engage in a conversation, the last guy snorted before laughing. "Hahaha… That's impossible. You all have chosen death."
All of them turned around, looking at this middle-aged man.
"What did you say?" The oldest one glared at him and stepped forward.
"I already told you that you wouldn't be able to gain anything. You have been checkmated the moment Theodore Griffith sides with us." The guy harrumphed. His tone was filled with confidence.
"You…" Boris narrowed his eyes and realized who the guy was. "Tell that bastard that he wouldn't be able to acquire this company even with Theodore Griffith's help. If you don't leave now, I will beat you up."
"Come! Beat me up!" The guy wasn't afraid of Boris as he pointed at the small camera on the corner of his pocket. "Sir Carmelo has been watching you this whole time. And you three… Prepare to receive the retribution from opposing the Safulli Group."
Boris gritted his teeth and raised his hand, channeling his Magic Power to hit the guy's stomach, blowing him away.
"Gah!" The guy rolled a few times on the ground and raised his head as soon as he recovered. There was only hatred remaining in his expression.
Boris snorted and said, "Whatever you do, my company won't collapse. You should prepare yourself because I'm not going to remain silent."
The guy snorted before hearing something from his Skylink. He ultimately stomped the ground and left the room.
On the other hand, Boris looked at the three with a smile. Inwardly, he felt very sad when he realized there were only three loyal partners in this company.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry. I'm going to protect you with all my might."
"I need to call someone first…" Boris sighed and walked away, calling Agata.
"Hello, Dad? Do you need anything from me?" Agata's voice resounded from the Skylink, piquing the three guys' interest.
"Yeah. I need your help again…" Boris pinched the bridge of his nose and said with a troubled tone.
Even Agata fell silent for a moment and asked, "Okay, what happened?"
"Actually, Theodore Griffith has joined hands with the Safulli Group."
"What?! Theo has joined hands with them? Why did I not know any of this?"
"I am not very sure. That's why I want to ask for your help. Can you ask the pope for another favor? I don't mind paying the price as long as I can contend with the Safulli Group." Boris explained his plan with a calm tone.
"This… I am not very sure whether I can meet the pope or not. What's the time limit?"
"We only have two days before the company receives a massive hit."
"Two days?" Agata's shocked voice echoed, making everyone doubt whether the company could survive or not.
"Yes. I'm afraid Theodore Griffith won't make us rest in the next few days. As long as we can get the pope's help within two days, I have confidence in defending the company."
"Two days are too short. I don't even know whether I can meet him or not, let alone asking for a favor…"
"Please… We truly have no way out." Boris pleaded.
"I… I will try." Agata's voice was weak as if she had given up. She immediately hung up the call.
When the three guys heard their conversation, a doubt arose in their hearts.
The oldest guy patted Boris' shoulder and smiled. "Don't worry. I will be here for you. Even if everything fails, if you need a place to seek refuge, you can come to my place."
"Thank you." Boris smiled and gently hugged him, showing his appreciation.
"It's fine. I have been here since you were still learning from your father… I can't help but consider you as my own son. So, no need to hold back and rely on me." The old guy smiled and continued. "Anyway, I will return first. Seeing that bastard there, I'm sure that the Safulli Group will target me next, so I will put up a countermeasure first."
"Yes." Boris nodded with a serious expression.
The other two also approached Boris and assured him that he would stand beside him to solve this problem.
After thanking them, Boris sat down on his seat alone.
"Uuh…" Boris facepalmed, not having the energy to handle this. Although Theo had told him to prepare for something like this, it still hurt to know that his company could easily be shaken like this.
'As expected, those who left first seemed to be somehow loyal to me, but because of the pressure from the Safulli Group, they decided to leave. For now, I will put them in the second group.
'As for those who left the last, I could consider them as the first group. I should be able to trust them, but I need to make sure none of them is affiliated with the Safulli Group.
'Last but not least, the third group… They're the most dangerous. After everything is over, I won't do any business with them anymore.
'Either way, the first phase is now completed. It's going to be a hellish two weeks, but this is what I need to ensure the family's safety…
'Alas, I really want to know that guy's plan… Why did he choose to mess with this company?' Boris looked down as he spent his time contemplating the reason but to no avail.
He came up with several things, but the end results weren't that good, so he didn't know what Theo was thinking.
