But Josh didn't even get a chance to change his clothes before Victor called him over to the hospital.

After learning that the Schmidt Group's assets had depreciated by two billion dollars in value, Victor

had thoroughly "refurbished" the VIP ward he was staying in. It was better demolition work than most

people could accomplish.

Money wasn't the most important thing right now. What was important was that the recent wave of

negative news had impacted one of Schmidt Group's big projects in Kontina, forcing them to stop

operations.

The Kontinian authorities even wanted to investigate Schmidt Group's financial status thoroughly. This

was the greatest blow to the company.

"Please calm down, Dad. Don't overexert yourself." Josh's voice was weak. His greasy hair and

stubbled chin gave him a disheveled look. "We can always earn back the money, but if we don't

"Earn back the money? Easy for you to say!" Victor was fuming in the midst of the wrecked ward.

overseas! Tell me, when exactly will we make enough to cover a loss of that amount?"

Josh's expression stiffened. He had no solution in mind.

"Don't panic, Dad," A clear voice rang out, making Josh's heart sink.
