Chapter 316 This Pot We Don’t Carry
“It’s Kevin!”
“Chairman… Chairman, why is he here?”
Everyone was shocked. They didn’t expect that the project manager of the company who finally took away Yusuf Group’s 700 million project would dare to come here so openly and even barge into their conference room!
Yu Qingshan turned around. When he saw Kevin, his face turned a little green. Before he could speak, Kevin had already said, “I heard that you will open this meeting because of me. I am the protagonist. Why can’t I come?”
It was as if in an instant, he had become the unruly and indulgent Mr. Harry from before. His words carried a joking tone, but one could hear the sarcasm in them.
“Since there are guests here, Ben, prepare a seat for Mr. Harry.” Damon glanced at Kevin coldly and instructed Ben.
This form of address caused Kevin’s expression to turn cold.
Everyone knew that Kevin was now the project manager of the JV Group. He was no longer the Mr. Harry who had nothing to do and relied on his family business. However, Damon continued to address him in this way, more or less with some sarcasm.
Kevin glanced at Damon and did not speak. He turned to look at Yu Qingshan. “Chairman Yu, I came here this time to explain some things.”
As he spoke, he turned to look at Adele and smiled at her without hiding anything.
This smile made Adele’s nervous heart suddenly relax a lot. Just now, she had sent a message to Kevin for help in a moment of desperation. She did not expect him to really come.
However, she was not sure if Kevin could explain the rest of the things clearly, but she had to gamble.
She also smiled at Kevin, but she suddenly felt a sharp gaze from the side looking at her. When she saw Damon’s gaze, her heart unconsciously tightened.
Even if Yu Qingshan was unhappy, it was not good to reject him in front of so many people, so he could only let go and say, “Tell me.”
“I heard that some people made an issue about me and Adele going shopping and eating together yesterday. They said that she had a good relationship with me, so they put the suspicion of your company’s proposal leaking on her and forced her to quit.”
Someone responded, “There is no such thing as force. We have a reasonable analysis!”
“What a good evidence.” “Let me show you what it means to have evidence!” Kevin sneered.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
As he spoke, he clapped his hands. His assistant, who was standing outside the door, immediately came in with a laptop in his hand.
“This is the surveillance video that Adele and I encountered in the clothing store yesterday. It is enough to prove that the two of us did not make an appointment in advance, but a chance encounter.”
As he spoke, he raised his hand slightly, and the assistant had already turned the computer screen to the crowd and clicked on the play button.
In the surveillance, Kevin barged into the fashion store and asked about the direction of the fitting room. Then, he opened the door of the fitting room. He could clearly see the confusion on their faces when they first met. Obviously, they had not made an appointment beforehand. Moreover, the two of them greeted each other and said “long time no see”. This made it even more obvious that the two of them were not as close as rumored.
After the video was played, the conference room was a little quiet for a moment.
Kevin curled his lips and took out his mobile phone to find a text message. He gestured to everyone, “The most suspicious thing is that I received a text message yesterday. Someone deliberately led me to meet Adele. It is obvious that someone is interfering and deliberately letting the two of us meet up. The purpose is to secretly take photos of us. This is the text message.”
As he said this, he handed the phone to the people next to him and asked them to send this message.
After reading a few people on the phone, they all fell silent and did not speak. When the remaining people saw this, they also guessed it in their hearts.
When the phone was halfway through, Kevin calmly said, “Yesterday, Adele and I were created by people with ulterior motives. We were also secretly taken photos. This morning, your company’s email system was hacked. The reason why you sent that kind of email was to mislead everyone and make you think that Adele was the culprit who leaked the proposal. Why do you think the person behind this would do this?””
There was no need for him to say it. Everyone could think of it. The purpose of this was to cover up the truth of the truth and launch a scapegoat. Only then could the real black hand be better concealed.
“If you don’t believe what I said, you can go to check the surveillance of the Fashion Store personally. At that time, the clerk was also present. You can ask her,”
After a pause, he continued, “As for this person who is playing tricks behind the scenes, no matter if it is a person or a ghost, once I find out, I will never let him go! You put the blame on Adele. Not only did you frame my friend, but you also denied my ability. We will not take the blame. If anyone has any objections, we will talk face to face. I will take care of this matter to the end!”
When Kevin said this, the faces of the people at the conference table became a little ugly.
In comparison, what Kevin said just now was indeed reasonable. They did not have any direct evidence to prove that the project proposal was leaked by Adele. If they continued to be in a stalemate, the scene would be very embarrassing.
Damon frowned and looked up at Adele. The woman looked at Kevin with bright eyes. For a moment, a strange feeling emerged in his heart.
“Chairman Yu, what do you think?” Kevin calmly looked at Yu Qingshan.
Yu Qingshan had a serious expression on his face. He put his hands behind his back and cleared his throat when he heard the voice. “Since Manager Cheng has said so, I naturally have no objections.”
“Who has any objections?” Kevin smiled and looked at the others. “I will accompany you to the end.”
The company’s chairman, Yu Qingshan, had already spoken. The other higher-ups and shareholders naturally had nothing to say. The originally active and active people also lowered their heads and did not say a word.
The corners of Kevin’s lips twitched. He looked up at Adele and met her gaze. He raised his eyebrows at her and blinked.
She looked like a child who had won a game by luck, cute and mischievous, full of childishness.
The tension in Adele’s heart was mostly relieved. Seeing Kevin make a face for her, she could not help but laugh.
On the other side, Yu Qingshan glanced at Damon and said lightly, “You can finish up. I’ll wait for you in the office.”
After that, he nodded at Kevin and then walked out of the conference room.
As soon as he left, the conference room became even quieter, as if a needle could be heard clearly.
After a moment of pause, Damon said coldly, “Since things have come to this, this matter is over. I will ask the technical department to strengthen the management of the company’s email system. Adele will retain his original position. As for those groundless rumors, don’t spread them from this room.”
After that, he raised his hand and buckled the table, and said in a heavy tone, “Dismissed.”
After that, he stood up and told Ben, “Send Mr. Harry off.”
After he finished speaking, he strode out, never looking at Adele again from beginning to end.
Adele’s heart sank, feeling a little uneasy.
Beside him, Kevin looked at Ben and said, “You don’t have to send me off.”
As he spoke, he walked to Adele’s side, raised his chin slightly at her, and said with a smile, “You send me off.”
