Chapter 99: Chapter 99: Begging for ForgivenessSorrel shouted into the phone in a panic.

    But the call on the other end had already been hung up.

    He stood there dumbfounded, the phone slipping from his grip unnoticed.

    Dismissed by the Finske European division?

    Assets frozen?

    Corporate ban?

    Commercial investigation?

    As the CEO assistant, how could he not have bent the rules for others, accepted benefits, or taken kickbacks?

    Not to mention too much, but there’d definitely be billions!

    Once this investigation is over, with such a huge amount involved, wouldn’t he spend the rest of his life in prison!!!

    Moreover, not to mention a commercial investigation, those other issues already mean his life is ruined, his future destroyed!!

    "I’ve already told you, in ten minutes, you’ll be finished."

    Ye Huan’s words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in Sorrel’s ears.

    Sorrel shivered, looking at Ye Huan’s faintly smiling expression, his lips began to tremble uncontrollably.

    Wasn’t it just now, with that phone call, that within ten minutes he deprived Walker of his inheritance as CEO, and got him dismissed, with assets frozen?

    It was that call that plunged him into an endless abyss?

    How... how could it be?

    But if not him, then... then who else!

    Liu Tianyun’s... this husband, just what is his identity!?

    At this moment...

    A blond man came running from afar.

    He had accidentally gotten caught on a tree while parachuting down, leaving his face covered with scratches from the branches.

    Running, he cried and shouted loudly:

    "Sir, please spare me, I beg you!!!"

    Everyone’s eyes immediately turned to him.

    All eyes were wide open.

    This man... isn’t this the frequently seen-on-TV, the president of the Finske European division—Walker Finske? Why... why is he crying and pleading? What’s going on!

    Seeing Walker in this state, Sorrel’s eyes darkened, and he collapsed to the ground, barely able to breathe.

    He knew Walker had been doomed by him!

    Walker’s identity as an heir and the president of the European division had all been stripped away by Ye Huan’s call!

    He finally understood, Walker made him humble himself and avoid offending Tianyun International not because of some "underground mistress," but... but because of Liu Tianyun’s husband!

    Walker’s purpose... was to curry favor with this man!

    Looking at Ye Huan, Sorrel now had no disdain or scorn in his eyes.

    Instead... deep fear!

    "Who... who are you?" Sorrel asked with a trembling voice.

    Ye Huan smiled, pulling out his phone and twirling it in his hand.

    Suddenly, an incident from last month surfaced in Sorrel’s mind.

    During the giant quarterly meeting of the Finske Conglomerate last month, when Patriarch Stephen was in the middle of his speech, he suddenly received a call and became extremely agitated.

    Right afterward, he ordered Finske’s Asian division to purchase a batch of Tianyun International goods worth 20 million...

    Could it be that the call was... from this man?

    This man, could he... command such immense respect from the Patriarch?

    "Gulp."

    Sorrel’s throat moved with difficulty, his cold sweat soaking his collar.

    ...

    Walker had already run over from afar, hugging Ye Huan’s leg, kneeling, and crying out loud: "Sir, please spare me this time, I swear I’ll severely punish Sorrel!!"

    No need to guess, he knew that Sorrel offended this man, whom even grandfather Stephen held in utmost respect.

    It’s said he’s a member of the Dark World... that Lord!!!

    Not to mention himself offending him, even the entire Finske Conglomerate couldn’t afford to offend him, yet his assistant dared to act so recklessly?

    He hated, hated Sorrel with a passion.

    Upon knowing he was expelled from the family instantly, Walker understood that the Finske Conglomerate was severing ties with him!

    The fact that this man personally intervened indicated how angry he was, and the Finske family was striving to quell his wrath!

    He so wanted to slap Sorrel, the instigator of this mess, dead, to vent his anger.

    But now, the most crucial thing was to gain this man’s forgiveness!

    Walker shuffled back a few steps on his knees, then began kowtowing heavily, crying and shouting loudly:

    "Sir, I beg you, I accept the removal from my position as president and my inheritor status."

    "But I’m begging you, truly begging you, please don’t let my grandfather expel me from the family!"

    "I shouldn’t have sent Sorrel, that bastard, that idiot over here. Please forgive me, I will definitely not let him off!"

    Ye Huan looked at him indifferently, without making a sound.

    Everyone was utterly dumbfounded, their mouths agape as if they could fit a stone inside.

    This... this second heir to the globally renowned colossal and ancient conglomerate, was actually kowtowing for Ye Huan’s forgiveness?

    "..."

    The whole place was silent, and everyone was thrown into disarray by the sudden turn of events.

    Even Liu Tianyun, who usually wore a cold expression, was at this moment astounded, astonished beyond belief!

    This... this convenient husband of hers, what exactly is his identity?

    He actually... truly managed to remove Sorrel with just one phone call, and not only that, he also took away Walker’s heir status!

    The heir of such a colossal entity like the Finske Conglomerate, can he... he decide life and death with just one call?

    This... how is this possible!

    She couldn’t believe it.

    But all of this happened clearly before her eyes, she had no choice but to believe!

    At the same time, her face blushed slightly, feeling a bit unable to save face.

    After all, she had not believed Ye Huan possessed such influence before...

    "Bang. Bang. Bang."

    The sound of kowtowing grew louder and louder, the flesh and blood on Walker’s forehead were clearly visible.

    Ye Huan was full of black lines.

    Stephen actually did such an "absolute" thing, directly expelling him from the family?

    If he continued to kowtow like this, this damn Walker would surely knock himself to death on the spot.

    His attitude of apology was indeed very sincere. The perpetrator of this incident was Sorrel, and Walker had repeatedly instructed him not to let Tianyun International harbor any dissatisfaction, it was Sorrel’s own fault.

    Moreover, he was Stephen’s grandson, if he knocked himself to death in front of Ye Huan, that really wouldn’t make sense.

    Ye Huan secretly nodded, and said faintly:

    "I can intercede for you, to prevent you from being expelled from the family."

    "I could even reinstate your position as President of the European division."

    "However, the premise is, you need to cooperate with Tianyun International unconditionally and help Tianyun International open up sales channels in Europe."

    He could actually regain the position as President of the European division?

    And... and also regain the heir’s position?

    Walker was overjoyed, he didn’t hesitate at all, he directly raised his hand in the air, and said with earnest seriousness and a resolute voice:

    "Absolutely no problem!"

    "I swear, Tianyun International will be Finske’s permanent strategic partner in Europe!"

    "At the same time, if necessary, all resources of the Finske European division will be completely tilted toward Tianyun International!"

    "Any form of cooperation will be free of charge!"

    Upon hearing this, Ye Huan nodded faintly, pointed to Sorrel: "You handle him, no problem, right?" S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    Walker turned to look at Sorrel, his gaze as cold as ice.

    He showed a meaningful expression on his face, and said: "Sir, please rest assured, the manner in which I handle it will definitely satisfy you..."

    "You deal with it first, come in the afternoon to sign the relevant cooperation agreement." Ye Huan said casually, then patted Liu Tianyun’s back, "What are you standing there for, let’s go."

    "Ah? Oh."

    Liu Tianyun said blankly, she snapped back to reality, yet still wore an unbelieving expression, but she followed Ye Huan toward the company nonetheless.

    Watching the two leave, Walker’s face bore an unrestrained sinister expression.

    To compete and fight his family peers and climb up to the current position as the second heir of the Finske Conglomerate, how could he possibly be soft-hearted?

    One could even say his methods are absolutely ruthless!

    Sorrel, as Walker’s assistant, naturally knew Walker’s methods.

    His clothing was drenched layer upon layer with cold sweat when Walker’s gaze fell upon him...

    Walker slowly bent down, a bizarre smile appearing on the corners of his mouth: "Sorrel, do you want to be chopped into pieces, or fed to the dogs? Or maybe..."

    "Oh yes, I just bought a new villa where I keep a dozen pythons. The cost to feed them is quite high, giving me quite a headache."

    "With you there, they should be able to feast very, very well at night..."

    Walker’s smile was extremely cruel.

    "No... No... No!!"

    Sorrel cried out, lips trembling.

    Seeing Walker’s increasingly sinister smile, Sorrel’s vision suddenly blackened, and in extreme fear, he fainted.

    When he awakes again, he might very much hope to remain in slumber.

    Rather than to watch himself be torn apart by pythons with his own eyes...
