Chapter 839: Chapter 839: Fortunately, I Have You
People’s eyes were rekindled with hope. Now that Vivian Drew had apologized, surely Caleb Mat should let them go, let the Drew family off the hook.
The banquet hall was silent, everyone’s breath slowed down, waiting quietly for Caleb to speak. He remained silent, and no one dared to urge him, fearing to anger this living king of hell.
After a long silence, Caleb seed to have had enough of the humiliating expressions on Vivian and Boyd Drew’s faces. He slowly opened his eyes with an indifferent smile, “Fine.”
Sean Price stepped forward to convey his CEO’s intentions. “The CEO will imdiately drop the lawsuit, but you must withdraw all the perfus, destroy the perfu bottles, and also compensate the CEO 1.8 billion dollars.”
The faces of the Drew family mbers were ashen. Sir Drew felt a dull pain in his chest, so much so that he couldn’t speak. Even if they were unwilling, they had to grit their teeth and accept this outco.
Sir Drew could only clench his fists, gritting his teeth, “Soone will be in touch with the Mat Corporation to further settle the compensation issue.”
...
As his voice fell, Caleb left unceremoniously with Xaviera. The farce was finally over. The Drew family paid a heavy price, but at least they saved their reputation.
No sooner had Caleb and Xaviera left than Sir Drew collapsed on the ground, his body trembling. He pointed at Boyd and Vivian Drew, with no strength left to utter a word.
He regretted it! If he had chosen Winni and Caleb back then, if he handed the Drew Corporation over to them, maybe the Drew family would have been the leading group dostically by now. He wouldn’t need to worry about the company’s trivial matters at his old age.
But things have reached this point, he has no way out. From the mont he decided to keep Boyd, everything was already destined.
Soon, the Drew family swiftly suppressed the news, gave their clients a reasonable explanation, and issued so coupons to clients who had paid in pre-sale. Only then was the crisis resolved.
Counting all up, they paid Caleb 1.8 billion dollars, added to the expenditure on manpower, publicity, and other costs over this period, they lost about 2.6 billion dollars in total.
The Drew Corporation had already lost over 10 billion dollars. In just a few months they lost another 2.6 billion. The huge corporation was hollowed out; it could no longer withstand any storms.
…
Lowen Clubhouse.
Xaviera was laughing and complinting, “Yigol, you’ve beco smart! You knew to bring Mrs. Carter over.”
Yigol looked proud, “I’ve always been smart!”
Xaviera nodded with laughter. She suddenly felt the comforting sense of her son growing up. This little boy has grown up, no longer carrying the title of a playboy. Though he loved his freedom and didn’t want to join the company, he was now succeeding remarkably.
She couldn’t help but sigh, “Actually, Jenny Green has done one thing right, and that is bringing you to Caleb.”
Because of Yigol, Caleb’s grey childhood had a hint of color.
Looking back at their first eting, Xaviera thought Yigol was just an ignorant and incompetent playboy, always protecting Zara Woods. Now she couldn’t bla him for being too naive, too easily trustful of others. He would repay anyone who treated him well, who wouldn’t like such a loyal little puppy?
Xaviera looked at him with a beaming smile, “It’s good to have you.”
Tears welled up in Yigol’s eyes. His sister-in-law was the best. When he was kicked out of the Mat family, everyone saw him as a lost dog. Only Xaviera comforted him and helped him gradually co out of his shadow.
Just as he was about to express his gratitude to Xaviera, Caleb, who was watching him with adoring eyes, said, “It’s nice to have you.”
Yigol was instantly elated.
Even Caleb, this unworthy man, was praising him; he must be really outstanding. He danced with joy, “Yeah! It’s your honor, you scum, to have t !”
Xaviera choked on the soup she had just sipped.
This boy sure couldn’t take a complint! He was getting carried away after only a couple of complints, even having the guts to talk to Caleb like that?
…
Ten minutes later, Yigol stood in the swirling snow outside, looking like a puppy that had been abandoned.
He was wrong, he would never be complacent again.
Just because it was snowing today, his brother heartlessly threw him out.
Yigol was so aggrieved that he was on the brink of tears. As he watched the heavy snow, he could only sit in the car, pondering where to go. It was too boring to go anywhere alone.
