Chapter 71 - Chairman, Why Are You Here?
Chapter 71: Chairman, Why Are You Here?
At the auction venue, after Vincent called for help, he sat down a dozen meters away from Bruce.
Jacob and Graham were fanning him and massaging his legs to curry favor with him.
However, this obviously wouldn’t appease Vincent. If he didn’t see Bruce being beat up, he wouldn’t be satisfied.
“D*mn it! I’ll let you gloat for a while longer. When my men arrive, you’ll have to kneel down and kowtow to me!” Vincent cursed. His gaze never left Bruce, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
Bruce, on the other hand, sat calmly on the ground. He had no intention of leaving at all.
When Brianne saw this scene, she was extremely anxious. She even wanted to pull Bruce away.
At this moment, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the auction hall.
“Vincent! Vincent, where the h*ll are you!?”
This voice was filled with anger. Soon after, a middle-aged figure with an angry expression on his face quickly appeared at the auction hall.
This person was the chairman of the Hugo Group, Hugo Samson!
He truly stood at the top of the pyramid of Porta’s business world.
He was influential and powerful in Porta.
“Chairman… Chairman?”
Vincent, who was originally sitting cockily, immediately shivered when he saw this person. He immediately stood up and revealed an expression of fear and trepidation.
In the next moment, Vincent hurriedly ran in front of Hugo with a subservient look on his face, as if he wanted to curry favor with Hugo.
“Chairman, why are you here? Why didn’t you tell me when you came so that I could pick you up?” Vincent lowered his back and approached Hugo obsequiously.
“You actually have the sense to ask? If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have known that you nearly screwed things up for me!” Hugo immediately flew into a rage.
Just as Vincent turned his face, Hugo’s huge hand slapped him mercilessly.
The crisp sound of a slap reverberated throughout the entire auction venue.
Just by listening to this sound, one could tell that Hugo didn’t hold back at all.
Vincent, who had been slapped, immediately saw stars. He spun around on the spot before plopping down on the ground.
“Hugo… Hugo, you… how could you… ?” Vincent, who had been slapped, looked at Hugo in shock.
At this moment, Jacob and the others were so scared that they stood frozen in place without daring to move.
“Get lost! Don’t try to play the relative card. You and I are distant cousins. If it weren’t for the fact that you still have some abilities, I would have sent you back to the countryside to raise pigs!
I didn’t expect you to be such an idiot. You not only didn’t take my words to heart, but you even caused such a big mess for me?
From this moment on, you’re fired! Get as far away from me as possible! I don’t want to see you again for a moment!” Hugo flew into a rage.
If he hadn’t stopped the people in the company in time, he might have raised h*ll today.
This..
When Vincent heard this news, he was instantly dumbfounded. He hurriedly crawled in front of Hugo and said, “Hugo, it’s not true. You’re joking with me, right? You are…”
Hugo kicked Vincent to the ground. He didn’t show him any leniency at all. “Joking? Do you think I’m joking with you!?”
After kicking Vincent, Hugo didn’t even look at him. He immediately turned his gaze to Bruce.
However, just as he was about to go over and apologize, Bruce slowly walked over while holding the hand of the bewildered Brianne.
The moment he saw Bruce, Hugo’s heart couldn’t help but thump.
The others couldn’t tell, but Hugo, who had been in a high position for a long time, could tell that Bruce was extraordinary.
Although this person looked young, his every movement and gesture exuded a powerful sense of confidence and composure.
With this kind of confidence and composure, he was definitely the Mr. White that Rica had mentioned!
When he thought of this, Hugo’s expression immediately became more respectful when facing Bruce.
“Mr. White…” Facing Bruce, who was walking over, Hugo was about to address him, but was directly interrupted by Bruce. “Brianne, let’s go.”
Huh?
Brianne looked at Bruce in shock. Then, she looked at Jacob reluctantly. “Bruce, what about Father’s company?”
Bruce smiled slightly. “I think someone will send the transfer agreement to the Taylor family tomorrow morning.”
Brianne forced a smile when she heard that. How was that possible?
However, Bruce’s safety was the most important right now. It was better to leave this place as soon as possible. As for the matter of the National Flower Company, she could only think of a way slowly.
Just like that, Bruce openly brought Brianne out of the auction, while Hugo watched him leave with a respectful expression.
After Bruce had completely left the scene, Hugo’s face was once again filled with a solemn expression.
“Who is the chairman of the National Flower Company? Did you all hear what Mr. White said just now? !” Hugo said indifferently.
Huh?
Jacob and the others were stunned when they heard that. It was as if they were petrified and couldn’t react in time.
“Hugo, what Mr. White? Isn’t he just a prisoner?” Vincent crawled over again, but Hugo kicked him again.
“You are too reckless! You don’t even know who you have offended. You should go back and raise pigs! Get lost! If you dare to say anything about what happened today, I will make sure that you can’t even raise pigs!” Hugo said fiercely.
When Vincent heard this, his heart skipped a beat and a rueful expression appeared on his face.
Why was this happening? Why was Hugo so respectful towards Bruce? Who the h*ll did he offend?
Vincent was filled with regret and hurriedly tried to defend himself, “Hugo, this isn’t my fault. It’s their fault. They were the ones who provoked me into doing this.
“They were the ones who said that Mr. White was just a b*stard. He even went to prison. They wanted me to teach him a good lesson. That’s why I was so muddle-headed…”
When Jacob and the other two heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. They felt a chill run up their spines.
In the next moment, the three of them instantly knelt in front of Hugo.
“President Samson, it’s not like that. We, we…” Jacob and the other two begged for mercy, but Hugo sneered when he heard them.
“Great! Amazing! Even I, Hugo, don’t dare to offend him, but you dared to provoke him? That’s amazing! Hehe…”
The laughter on Hugo’s face made Jacob and the other two feel trepidatious and disheartened.
They were dead meat now..
The three of them sat on the ground with anguish all over their faces.
..
On the other side, Bruce brought Brianne out of the hotel. Since Brianne had been busying around for the whole day, his heart ached a little and he brought her back to the hotel to rest.
After returning to the hotel, Brianne, who was still in shock, looked at Bruce worriedly. “Bruce, are we really going back to the Taylor family tomorrow? But, we haven’t completed their conditions yet.”
Bruce rubbed her head with a gentle expression and said, “Haven’t you already completed two conditions? Perhaps, the Freeman family will send Father’s company over tomorrow?”
Brianne forced a smile, but her expression immediately froze, as if she had realized something. She looked at Bruce with puzzlement. “Bruce, how do you know that I’ve already completed two conditions?”
