Chapter 262 Let Him Play
<Chapter>Chapter 262 Let Him Play </Chapter>
Besides that, Joshua couldn't think of any other reason.
"Are you getting on the elevator or not?"
A voice from inside the elevator suddenly interrupted Joshua's chaotic thoughts.
He looked up in a hurry and stepped inside.
The elevator slowly ascended, and Joshua's fist clenched tighter and tighter.
His mind was in chaos.
If that's really the case, then it means that he made this mistake.
Considering Vito Curtis's current level of dislike towards him, if he found out, he definitely wouldn't let him off easily.
Unconsciously, Joshua had already arrived at the entrance of the conference room.
The voices inside were filled with anger.
Joshua didn't know who was reprimanding.
"Luann! How could you make such a basic mistake?!
"Checking the contract before departure, isn't that something you should do?!
"Nine billion, nine hundred million!"
Luann quietly sat in a chair with lowered brows.
Vito Curtis stood in front of her, not saying a word, with a somewhat gloomy expression.
"Sorry, it was my carelessness," Luann said softly.
"Carelessness? Can carelessness make up for the loss you caused to the company?
"Yeah! If everyone was as careless as you, how should this company continue to operate?"
"Chairman, although Luann has the ability, she doesn't have much experience. It's not quite suitable for her to be promoted to director right away."
"I agree, although nine billion is not a large amount for our company, what if there's another mistake?"
"Luckily it's only one billion, if it were ten billion, we would be in trouble."
Vito Curtis leaned on his cane, looking at Luann.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Luann slightly opened her red lips and said, "I..."
Bang!
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Joshua walked in from outside, his face showing signs of hesitation and guilt.
He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Vito Curtis glanced at him, ignored him, and continued speaking to Luann, "You've only been a director for a short time, but you've made such a serious mistake. It's not suitable for you to continue in this position."
Joshua's body shook.
"Go back and rest for a few days. You don't need to come in these two days," Vito Curtis said as he stood up.
"Okay," she replied, bowing her head and passing by Joshua.
Joshua couldn't see her expression, but he guessed that Luann must be feeling especially upset right now.
After she left, Joshua hesitated for a moment before speaking up, "Chairman, don't you want to investigate this matter further? There might be some hidden information."
Vito Curtis responded expressionlessly, "She personally negotiated the contract. What hidden information could there be? Even if there were mistakes made by the people handling the printing of the contract, she not only didn't notice but also signed the contract with the wrong information. Therefore, she bears full responsibility for this.
"As for the nine billion, Luann doesn't have the ability to repay it, so let Myron take care of it.
"Besides, when he was working for the company a few years ago, he must have saved a considerable amount."
Joshua wanted to say something but then stopped himself.
Nine billion was not a small amount for him.
If he spoke up, then he would be the one to bear all the blame.
Joshua walked out of the meeting room, feeling lost.
Clearly, this was the result he had wanted.
But why did he feel somewhat uncomfortable when he heard Luann being suspended from her position as director?
Joshua rubbed his hair irritably and murmured to himself, not knowing if he was trying to convince his own heart.
‘Wasn't the original plan to find Luann's mistakes and then turn the tables on her?’
When he was by Luann's side, Joshua had already made up his mind.
Even if Luann didn't make any mistakes, he would find a way to fault her.
Sooner or later, he would pull her down from this position!
Creak.
Joshua pushed open the door and saw Luann standing by the desk, packing her things.
She looked up when she heard the sound.
Her almond-shaped eyes were clear as if she could see through his twisted thoughts.
Joshua understood that Luann must have thought he was behind this.
Because the contract was confirmed by Luann and then handed over to him to submit.
"It seems like I can give this position back to you," Luann's words were light and ethereal.
Joshua, who should have been extremely happy, couldn't force a smile at this moment.
Luann picked up the box and walked towards the exit.
Joshua suddenly grabbed her arm.
"Luann, if I were to say that I had nothing to do with the contract, would you believe me?"
Luann glanced at him and her voice was clear, "Then why didn't you tell Chairman?"
"I..." Joshua was speechless.
The sound of the door closing echoed behind him.
Joshua stood still, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
Meanwhile, Luann rode the elevator down to the first floor.
It wasn't a very long distance from the elevator to the company's entrance, but she could hear people whispering around her.
"The director was fired?"
"Oh no, that's serious,"
"Ah, for those who make mistakes, they're indeed not suitable to stay in the headquarters," Hill said as they stopped by the roadside.
"What's wrong with you?" Luann asked, looking at her dirty face and smiling.
"It's nothing, just helping with a play," Hill replied.
As soon as she finished speaking, a pitch-black car stopped in front of her.
The driver got out of the car and respectfully opened the door for her.
Luann approached the car.
The car quickly stopped in front of a coffee shop.
She pushed open the door to a private room.
A figure leaning on a cane walked towards her.
They grabbed her hand.
Their face was full of affectionate smiles.
No trace of seriousness from before.
"Oh Luann, I'm sorry for what happened," they said.
"When the time comes, you must explain it clearly to Myron, otherwise he'll definitely get angry," they added.
Luann smiled faintly, "Grandpa, he's not that easy to anger."
"That's true for you," Vito Curtis couldn't help but jokingly remark.
"What did you say?" His voice was too low, and Luann couldn't hear clearly.
Vito Curtis waved his hand and pulled her to sit down.
"It's nothing."
"This incident gives us the opportunity to eliminate the cancer within the company.
"I hope this has nothing to do with Joshua."
If it turns out that Joshua caused the company to lose 900 million, Vito Curtis would definitely tear him apart!
Luann took a sip of tea and leisurely said, "He wouldn't dare."
Joshua lacks the courage, whether it is harming others or plotting, he falls short.
"Well, Joshua is someone I watched grow up. This kid just has too much ambition. He always thinks I treat him unfairly and favor Myron," Vito Curtis sighed as he rubbed his temples.
But the truth proves that Joshua reaching the top of the company without any foundation is not a good thing for him.
"Ah, I'll keep the director position for you," Vito Curtis said.
Luann shook her head, "Let him sit there and play for a couple of days, so you can see how much progress he's made."
