The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 101 More Anxious Than Gwendolyn

Complex emotions were pooling in Maverick’s eyes.

After pondering for a while, he uttered in a tone that was even more firm, “We must return to Fairlake tomorrow!”

Nico didn’t respond, gritting his teeth. Suddenly, he made up his mind. He took advantage of Maverick’s current state and struck his palm toward the back of the latter’s head.

With a grunt, Maverick fainted on the spot.

The other subordinates were scared to death after seeing the scene. “Nico, do you have a death wish? Once Boss wakes up, he’ll definitely not let you off the hook!”

With a firm gaze, Nico obediently knelt beside Maverick’s legs.

“Boss is a reckless person. If I don’t stop him, he’ll surely want to return to Fairlake, even if he were to crawl there. He’s seriously injured and has a fever right now. I can’t let him risk his life like this. Even if he wants to beat me to death after gaining consciousness, I’ll let him do so!”

Upon hearing that, everyone sighed helplessly and said nothing in the end.

Two days later, inside the CEO’s office of Wright Construction Group, a sharp sound of things being thrown in the room could be heard even with the door closed.

Samantha glanced at the shattered pieces of the coffee cup on the floor and gently comforted, “Aunt Frida, please calm down. We were definitely tricked by Amryn Real Estate this time. They paid such a large sum of advance payment for the goods they ordered from Oceanic Constructions. We didn’t expect all of them to be defective products.”

“You couldn’t even take down such a small company. How on earth do you handle tasks!” Frida fumed angrily.

What she was even more enraged about was Samantha had spent 500 million in cash only to end up with a bunch of practically unusable defective products. Besides that, the main reason that led to this consequence was that the contract seemed to have been premeditated in which the type of goods was ambiguously mentioned on it. Although Samantha had checked the contract several times before signing, she still failed to discover the flaw. As a result, she couldn’t use the contract to argue with Oceanic Constructions, letting the defective goods go to waste in her hands.

“A whopping 500 million down the drain! If any issues arise in the company’s other projects, the company will face difficulties in cash turnover!”

Although Frida wasn’t good at running a business, she was still quite quick-witted when it came to losses.

Samantha knew she was at fault, so she could only apologize to Frida obediently in a partially coquettish attitude. “I’m sorry, Aunt Frida. I let my guard down this time. Rest assured; I’ll do my best to make an – amend for this loss. Please put faith in me once more. Although I messed up this time, I’ve still done a lot
