Roland informed plainly, “These few projects I mentioned need a very large amount of upfront investment.”

"Of course, we know that. We don’t need you to tell us that.”

“What kind of project doesn’t need a large sum of upfront investment anyway?”

"The funds for these projects have been pre-allocated since the start of the year. You don’t have to come up with a measly excuse to justify your intentionally picking on us!”

All three of Jimmy, Charles, and Lester glared at Roland discontentedly.

The others joined in and threw snide remarks at Roland, “Mr. Roland, you’re only worried because you don’t want us to spend all the company funds that you hoped would go into your pockets instead, aren’t you?”

"The funds allocated to our projects are all in the public account. They won’t go into his pockets no matter what.”

Roland frowned. He decided there was no need for him to explain himself. He promptly shut his notebook and tucked away the pen, then he got up and walked out of the conference room.

After he left, a dull silence fell upon the conference room.

The three executives Jimmy, Charles, and Lester were all fuming. They jabbed their fingers at the door, where Roland had just walked out of, and began spewing insults at him, “What kind of attitude was that? Who does he think he is? Even if he doesn’t respect us, he should at least have the decency to tell President Decker that he’s leaving!”
