Chapter 849 The Funds Were Gone
Rock felt as if he had been struck on the head, his entire being turned pale by Olivia's words.
He took two steps back, a chill enveloping his body, causing his mind to stop thinking entirely.
He thought the Blanchet Group was his possession, but from the day he joined the Blanchet Group, it had been Lawrence's scheme.
Both Lawrence and Winnie were pretending to be weak and Winnie even handed over the Blanchet Group to him back then!
It turned out to be Lawrence's conspiracy, causing him to lose all his funds.
He figured it out. Those shareholders downstairs were deliberately used by Winnie to delay him.
She immediately signed his money to the project, making it impossible for him to get it back now!
"You all plotted against me. Winnie, did you time this to humiliate me? I won't let you walk out of this door now!"
Rock completely lost his mind, swinging an arm and knocking all the documents off the table.
Winnie was hit hard by him, but as she staggered back, she calmly took out a small knife she had prepared and held it in front of her. Rock's ferocious and sinister face froze for a moment.
Winnie sneered coldly, slowly raising her lips, "You better calm down, Rock! Fighting with me here won't do you any good."
"You should think about the Harrington Group, your money has already gone into The Serene Haven Hotel project. The documents you just tore up were just copies; I can make ten thousand more for you. But soon, you'll be in big trouble."
"For example, the bank will start pressing for debt, and a large crowd will block your company demanding payment. The reputation of the Harrington Group is also on the brink of collapse."
"If you cause any more trouble with me now and end up in the police station, your reputation will be utterly ruined! All your years of scheming against me will be for nothing. Are you sure you want to make a move on me now?"
Rock's face turned ashen.
Winnie remembered Lawrence's words: as long as she handled it well, Rock wouldn't dare do anything to her on the spot.
Sure enough, he really couldn't afford to deal with her at the moment.
Using the small knife, Winnie slowly backed away under Rock's murderous gaze.
Rock gritted his teeth in hatred, retracting his fist and slamming it onto a chair, which he then flung towards Winnie. The financial office echoed with a terrifying crash. He shot Winnie a venomous look; the urgent matter was to retrieve his funds.
He turned and rushed out immediately, "Finance Manager! Get over here, retrieve my funds at once, stop the accounts at the construction site, now!"
The entire building echoed with his furious roars.
The office looked ransacked, Olivia took a deep breath and quickly ran to Winnie's side.
Winnie, standing straight, finally relaxed a bit, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Olivia said, "Rock just now looked like a demon, so terrifying."
"When a person is driven to the brink, they become ferocious and capable of anything," Winnie said, closing her eyes quietly.
Olivia added, "I also think Lawrence's move was too ruthless! Not too early, not too late, just at the right time to take Rock's last bit of money. Don't you think he went a bit too far?"
Winnie packed her things, glanced at her, "Rock has never been gentle with me."
Olivia thought about the bad things Rock had done to Winnie before, and shivered. "He deserves it!"
Winnie said nothing more, grabbed her bag, and walked out of the financial office. But she didn't leave the company; instead, she went to the president's office of the Blanchet Group.
This place had been occupied by Rock and Ishara for half a month.
Winnie stood in the spacious central floor, looking at Carlos's chairman's office, squinting slightly, her fingers tightening.
The Blanchet Group could now be taken back.
"Ms. Anderson! You're here." Lysander appeared behind her at some point.
Winnie glanced at Lysander, her gaze coldly sweeping towards her own office, "Ishara didn't come today?"
"Since the Harrington Group's product launch failed, Ishara hasn't dared to come today. Ishara is full of schemes, with a keen sense, as if she knew Rock would be in trouble today."
Winnie laughed coldly, "Throw out her things, and everything in Rock's office too, throw it all out."
Lysander replied, "Yes, Ms. Anderson! Rock should be on the verge of bankruptcy, and the court will soon come after him. He has no chance of controlling the Blanchet Group anymore. Just in time, you can return to the Blanchet Group."
"Mr. Potts and Mr. Jones are smart people; they must have seen through your actions just now. The power of the Blanchet Group will eventually return to you."
"Moreover, the Rodriguez Group's new product is making waves, and all major companies want aerospace new materials. Lawrence will soon return to the public eye, continuing his glory. With him backing you, no one will dare to mess with the Blanchet Group."
Winnie listened to him getting more and more outrageous and was about to say something to refute him.
Olivia laughed, "Lysander, you really know how to speak. Lawrence just made a comeback, and you already have such high hopes for his future?"
Lysander hadn't forgotten how much he used to dislike Lawrence, quickly saying, "I really didn't expect Mr. Rodriguez to be so formidable, so patient. For two whole months, he pretended to be weak and took the hits."
He added, "Not just me, but even Mr. Blanchet and any prominent family in Trento City thought he had no chance of making a comeback."
Olivia pursed her lips, thinking that if she didn't know the inside story, she would also think Lawrence had done nothing for a month.
It proved that having a smart mind meant one didn't have to do much.
Compared to him, Jeremy was just a doer.
Olivia clenched her fists, wondering why she was thinking about him. His relationship with Lynn must have progressed smoothly over the past half month.
Her heart still felt like it had been cut by a knife, painfully stabbing.
Rock arrived at The Serene Haven Hotel construction site.
Getting out of the car, he yelled at his secretary, his gloomy eyes narrowing in rage, "Winnie wants me to fail? Immediately hire netizens online to help me."
"Lead them to curse Lawrence, saying he cheated on Winnie, and now he's colluding with NexaCore Group to mess with me. He and Winnie maliciously froze my investment money in the Blanchet Group!"
He continued, "Their goal is to push me to the brink so they can be together openly! Have the hired netizens cry out for me, stir up the public's anger. I need to get public opinion on my side now. If I can gain the sympathy of the netizens, I might be able to make a comeback through public opinion."
