Chapter 1421

As soon as these words were spoken, Matthew’s face immediately darkened, and his beard visibly twitched.

Before he had a chance to speak, Darren, standing behind him, stepped forward. With furrowed brows and a stern face, he indignantly began to chastise Neera.

“How audacious! Mr. Lozano has promised the Gordon family so many benefits, even allowing an exceptional promotion for you to the second elder seat. This is an extraordinary favor toward the Gordon family. Yet, you are so ungrateful and dare to refuse Mr. Lozano. Do you not know what’s best for you?”

I didn’t expect you to turn into a great educator. I am quite curious, though. Among all of us here, who should really be careful with their words and actions? Wasn’t it you who misspoke just now? Mr. Torres, I think it would be best if you don’t forget your place. You’re just an assistant to the vice president, so why are you acting more important than, the vice president himself? Even Mr. Lozano hasn’t said anything yet, so why are you in such a hurry to speak up? Could it be that you think you can speak for Mr.
