“Please address me as the president when you’re in the company,” Sylphie said with a frown.

Jonathan immediately changed the way he addressed her. “President Sylphie, let me explain the situation. I found out that my uncle is selling a company-owned patent at a low price in order to get on someone’s good side,” he told her.

Sylphie was shocked upon hearing what he said. “Mr. Jonathan, it seems like you’re one who places righteousness above familial loyalty. However, shouldn’t you report something like this to the company discipline department? I’m not working in the corporation. Why are you telling me this?”

“That’s because I think that this incident has something to do with you, President Sylphie. It’s likely that someone is using your name to scam the corporation, and my uncle is simply a victim of this fraud,” Jonathan explained righteously.

Sylphie responded in an interested tone. “This has something to do with me? Explain everything to me in detail,” she said.

With that, Jonathan explained the deal between Jasper and the corporation in to Sylphie. “Jasper Laine asked for such a low price just because you recommended him to the company, Ms. Sylphie. MP3 is now a very popular product in the West,” he asserted eloquently.

“How could he buy a patent of a product like that just for 20 million US dollars? That is daylight robbery!”

“Indeed, I was the one who recommended Jasper Laine. What do you think we should do about this?” Sylphie asked calmly. Her tone and her expression were unreadable.
