Chapter 349 Let My Son Follow Up on the Project
The atmosphere in the conference room was tense. Some were in agreement, some in opposition, and some just there to watch the drama unfold.
Natalie looked at Victor. His eyes were slightly narrowed, and his expression was cold and indifferent, as if he didn't care about their arguments.
Seeing this, Aaron coughed heavily, and everyone instantly quieted down, looking at Victor's reaction.
Victor's gaze turned cold as he looked at Joe, his voice carrying a chilling tone.
"You really want to give your son a chance?"
Joe, though timid, mustered up his courage. If Billy didn't achieve something, he would definitely be abandoned by the Clark Group.
"Ms. Clark, Billy's performance in the business department is evident to all. I believe he can secure this project."
Victor's lips curled into a faint, almost imperceptible, cold smile, which quickly returned to normal.
"And what if he can't secure it?"
The atmosphere became tense and unnerving.
Joe's face instantly froze, his expression changing slightly.
Victor looked up, his voice cold.
"This project is the most important one for the Clark Group. It can be said that it involves everything the Clark Group has. If we can't secure it, the loss to Clark Group is not just about reputation."
"You want Billy to take on this responsibility, but whether he has the ability is another matter. If he causes Clark Group's rival company to get the project, who will bear the responsibility?"
Could it be easily brushed aside?
The conference room fell silent, and even breathing became cautious.
If Clark Group couldn't secure the project and the rival company did, it would not only damage Clark Group's reputation and shake its position but also affect a series of subsequent collaborations, potentially leading the entire group downhill.
Could he bear this responsibility?
Joe's expression changed. He had thought that, considering his years of hard work for Clark Group, it would be easy to get Victor to relent.
But Victor mentioned the consequences.
Everyone in the conference room started to focus on Joe.
Would he give up or persist?
A minute passed.
Natalie was getting a bit impatient. She checked her watch, thinking about going shopping later.
"I'll do it!"
Joe gritted his teeth, his voice firm.
"I believe in Billy. He can definitely secure this project. If he can't, I'll take full responsibility. I'm willing to give up all my shares."
There was an instant uproar.
Joe's status was second only to Ulysses, and he was highly respected among the shareholders.
He was willing to risk everything just for this opportunity!
Natalie couldn't help but look at him.
Joe's weathered face was determined. Where did he get such confidence?
Victor's lips curled.
"Not only that, but Billy will never be allowed to work in any subsidiary of Clark Group again."
Joe's expression changed several times before he resolutely spoke.
"Fine!"
Victor glanced at Natalie, "Hope can't be pinned on one person. We need a two-pronged approach. Natalie, you should also follow this project, just to relax a bit."
Natalie paused, looking up in surprise.
Why was she being dragged into this?
Joe looked at Natalie with an ugly expression. "How do we determine the winner between the two?"
"Whoever wins gets the credit, and whoever loses takes the blame."
Joe pointed at Natalie, his tone aggressive.
"Ms. Clark, do you mean that if she loses, she leaves Clark Group?"
Victor's gaze swept over Joe sharply.
Before he could speak, Natalie responded first.
"Yes, we'll each do our best."
