Chapter 420

Teresa sighed. "Anyway, ever since you chose Vertex Holdings Group, your father-daughter relationship with her is over."

Julian looked indifferent. "It's better if I cut ties with her sooner!"

"You should go back to work. I'll think about how to handle this," Teresa said.

But with the evidence Constance provided, no matter how they explained it, it was useless and would affect the image of Redstone Group.

"Okay."

After Julian returned to the company, Teresa finally relaxed. If she hadn't given birth to a daughter, she wouldn't have wasted time helping Julian.

Moreover, her current status made it inconvenient to openly confront Constance, so using Julian was the best way.

But now it seemed that Julian had no wisdom and couldn't keep his cool over small matters.

Teresa sighed and turned to leave Redstone Group.

The Chambers family.

Jennifer saw the evidence Constance posted online and a look of mockery flashed in her eyes.

She didn't expect Constance to have had such a miserable past, but she deserved it. Such a lowlife should live in darkness forever!

She registered a new account and started badmouthing Constance under related topics. If anyone refuted her, she would curse them out too.

However, what she didn't know was that her new account was too active and soon attracted attention.

Before long, her real identity was uncovered.

[Didn't expect it to be the eldest daughter of the Chambers Group. What, did Constance offend you?]

[She and Constance were both employees of Luminary Ventures Group. She spread rumors in the company that Constance disowned her biological parents for money and got fired for it. She's probably sulking at home now!]

[Look at the things she posted. She's no different from a shrew! The Chambers family is one of the top eight families in Thundertop, but I bet they're close to bankruptcy!]

Jennifer was so angry she wanted to hit those mocking her and immediately started cursing them back.

However, her actions were soon noticed by the Chambers Group.

In a meeting, a board member directly said, "Mr. Chambers, I was already dissatisfied when you promoted your son to vice president, but I decided to hold my tongue to see what he could do."

"But now, your daughter is arguing with people on Facebook under the identity of the Chambers Group president's daughter. People are laughing at the Chambers Group, and it's affecting the company's image and stock price!" he added.

Preston's face turned ugly, and he looked coldly at Eric. "What's going on?"

He had never been mocked like this in the company, and he felt utterly humiliated.

Eric stood up with a stern face. "I'll look into it."

Bethany couldn't help but feel happy; he thought his chance had come.

He was the first son of the Chambers family, but Francis Chambers handed the Chambers Group to Preston. He had been resentful for years, and now that Eric was about to become the new president, Jennifer's scandal provided him with the perfect opportunity to make his move.

"Mr. Chambers, you can't just focus on the company's profits; you also need to manage your family. Otherwise, if something happens, it will affect the Chambers Group."

Preston looked at him coldly. "Eric is already looking into it. We'll discuss it once we have the results!"

The board member who spoke earlier snorted angrily, "Regardless of the reason, her actions have already affected the company's image. If Eric is as reckless as Jennifer, how can we trust him to manage the company?"

As he finished speaking, other board members began to agree.

"Exactly, if Jennifer is like this, how good can Eric be!"

"I always thought Eric was too young to manage the Chambers Group. He needs more time to mature. If Mr. Bethany Chambers is unwell and needs to retire, I think the president's position should go to Bethany!"

"I agree. Over the years, Mr. Bethany Chambers's contributions to the Chambers Group are evident to everyone."

The discussions made Preston's face very ugly. He slammed the table and said angrily, "It's not up to you to decide who should take my position! Seniority doesn't mean capability; otherwise, any of you could be in my position!"

He still held significant authority in the company, so the room fell silent immediately, and no one spoke.

Soon, Eric returned.

He looked grim and said in a low voice, "Mr. Chambers, I've told Jennifer to stop posting online. She's currently deleting her previous posts. I'll contact the relevant departments to resolve this as soon as possible."

Preston was about to speak when his secretary, Jade Carter, hurriedly entered the meeting room, "Mr. Chambers, there's a problem. The president of the Drake Group is here to see you."

The room immediately panicked. All cooperation between the Drake Group and the Chambers Group had been canceled. No one believed Timothy was here to discuss cooperation.

"Mr. Chambers, this is your daughter's mess. You should handle it yourself. If you can't, you should step down quickly!"

The Chambers Group was already on shaky ground. If targeted by the Drake Group, it would be over.

Preston said coldly, "Take him to my office. I'll be there shortly."

After Jade left, Preston stood up and looked down at everyone, his eyes cold. "It's not up to you to tell me what to do. I hold the most shares in the company. As long as I don't want to step down, none of you can make me!"

Adjusting his suit, Preston left with a cold expression.

The board members were unhappy. It was clearly Preston's failure to manage his daughter that caused the company's losses, yet he was so self-righteous!

As soon as Preston entered his office, he met Timothy's cold, angry gaze.

His legs went weak, and he forced a smile. "Mr. Drake, I apologize for the online incident. It's my fault for not disciplining my daughter."

Timothy sneered, "Mr. Chambers, I've had my secretary save screenshots of the things Jennifer said about my daughter. If you don't give me an explanation, I don't mind going to court!"

Preston panicked and quickly said, "Mr. Drake, there's no need to escalate this. I will properly discipline Jennifer and bring her to apologize to Ms. Drake."

"Jennifer's nasty online comments can't be offset by a few apologies?" Timothy retorted.

Preston knew this wouldn't be resolved easily and gritted his teeth. "Then what do you want me to do?"
