The Cherished Wife

Chapter 105

Charles cracked a chilly smile. “Robert, you know what I’m like.” He set his water glass down, stood up tall, and looked down at Robert. “I don’t want to be too harsh, but I expect to see your resignation letter by tomorrow morning. Don’t worry. You won’t lose any Collosus Group shares, and you’ll still get your yearly share of the profits.” That was as nice as he could spare to be.

Robert was now fuming, puffing out his cheeks and glaring. He stood up so fast that his chair almost toppled over. “Charles, who do you think you are? Do you think I’m scared of you? This company isn’t yours to boss around. Your dad still shows me some respect, but you’re totally out of line.”

The more Robert thought about it, the angrier he got. He had been putting his heart and soul into Collosus Group for years. Charles was a new player in this industry, but he was acting like a big shot already.“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re plotting. Your fancy Hoffman family has always looked down on us, right? Well, if you start something, I’ll finish it. Just you wait!”

“I guess we’ll have to wait and see, Robert!”

Charles’s gaze turned icy. If Robert rejected his kind offer, he would not get any more mercy. “If I don’t hear the good news from you tomorrow, Robert, you’ll have to wait for the surprise I’ve prepared for you.”

Charles tossed the document bag aside. “You think this is all I’ve got?”

“What are you getting at?” Robert’s face went through a series of different expressions. “Charles, what are you trying to pull? I’m warning you! Even if I submit my resignation, the board won’t accept it!”
