“Is this a joke? What have you been doing behind my back, Maurice?”

Gerald slammed the table in the conference room with a resounding thud.

Everyone in the room remained completely quiet, and no one made a sound. Some of them even stepped a few steps away, scared of being drawn into the battle between the two enormous titans.

“Corbin.”

Angry, Maurice raised his voice. Corbin tossed a document at Gerald without delay.

“Uncle Gerald, I’ll let you look at it yourself.”

Frowning, Gerald grabbed up the document and went through it, squinting his eyes at it. His expression abruptly shifted.

“A landslide killed numerous people two months ago, just as you were beginning construction of the resort. You didn’t do anything to fix it. You, on the other hand, made enormous measures to keep the story from spreading, despite the danger, and continued with the resort project. Since another disaster occurred in the resort a few days ago. For that, I’ll have to put an end to the project. The situation is all your fault, Uncle Gerald, and I’m here to assist.”

Maurice’s comments caused a commotion. A lot of people were talking in the conference room. The individuals in attendance were only aware of the positive aspects of the resort and had no idea of the horrible events that had occurred there.

Clearly… The situation was impossible. How did Maurice come by this information?

Gerald’s face went from pale to red, then from red to black, and his eyes displayed complex emotions such as fright, fury, and dread.

All of his earlier efforts would come to naught if he admitted that he was wrong.
