Let Me Stay The Night

Nathaniel raked his icy gaze across the people on the screen. They fell silent, not daring to utter a word. His question was both direct and sharp.

The bay project was still in its preliminary phase, attracting numerous companies competing for the bid to supply materials to Hadley Corporation. Even if Nathaniel agreed to meet with Winston, it didn’t necessarily imply that their discussion would revolve around this specific project.

Hadley Corporation had investments in a wide range of industries and undertook hundreds of projects, while Raveworks Enterprise also dabbled in other industries other than the construction industry.

Furthermore, the construction supplier for the bay project had not been finalized yet, so Percy’s insinuation that Nathaniel had already decided to collaborate with Raveworks Enterprise seemed dubious and raised suspicions.

In a way, Percy had just dug his own grave.

Nathaniel despised people who accepted bribes and exploited the company for personal gain, prioritizing their own profits over ethical conduct.

Percy quickly replayed Nathaniel’s words in his mind as a bone–chilling sensation ran down his spine. He stammered, “I heard it from someone else. A company recently signed a low–priced contract with Winston, and the batch of construction materials provided by Raveworks Enterprise to their company happens to be the same batch that Hadley Corporation specifically ordered from them a while ago. Moreover, many people are aware that you’ve been socializing and discussing the possibility of cooperation with Mr. Labarge frequently.”

Nathaniel remarked pointedly, “Mr. Sutton, it seems that you know my schedule

pretty well.” Percy strained his mind, desperately searching for a suitable response, barely managing to hold on. He wished he could abruptly end the conference call, but doing so would only reveal his guilt. Nathaniel would never let him off the hook if he did that.

The reasons behind Nathaniel’s sudden change remained unknown, but he had recently initiated a restructuring of Hadley Corporation. Along with it came unpredictable reshuffling of the staff, seemingly driven by his mood. The entire company was gripped with fear due to his erratic and unpredictable decisions.

The board of directors was really not amused. In order to exert more decision–making power within Hadley Corporation, they not only relied on their shares but also on the trusted aides they strategically placed within the company. These trusted allies helped balance the pressures coming from different sides, ensuring the board’s influence and control were maintained.

Percy forced a dry laugh, attempting to downplay the situation. “I’m merely looking out for the company’s profits and gathering information through socializing with others. Mr. Hadley, please don’t take it too seriously.”
