Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game

Unless he takes action, if he does, he will certainly stir up a big storm. If outsiders attempt to shake the Hughes Clan, it’s unlikely, because Joshua Hughes’s personality would never allow such a thing to happen. Moreover, he couldn’t imagine anyone capable of challenging his authority in the business world, but if he acts himself, then he knows the weakest link of the Hughes Clan better than anyone else, this time he instantly grasped the Hughes Clan’s core.

Spring weather is often bright and gentle, but for some reason, outside the vast windows, shadows are slowly creeping in, bringing a sense of oppression, the storm is gradually approaching, and the man at the storm’s center sits there coldly, his gaze deep-reaching, his world is incomprehensible to others, and no one has ever come close to him. How many people will be implicated this time? How many financial storms will it trigger, nobody knows. Now Alexander King only knows that everyone needs to fend for themselves, because today’s stock price fluctuations are just the beginning, unexpected events will start happening one after another, catching people off guard.

Unexpected things began to occur one after another.

Joshua Hughes sat there, his eyes deep and thoughtful, wondering what exactly happened, what did she know? Did she meet Nora Thompson? If he knew what happened, he would have a strategy to respond, but now he doesn’t know what has transpired with her, what she knows, how should he handle her?

That feeling of powerlessness began to slowly rise from his heart, followed by waves of panic, no matter how big a transaction, it’s merely a matter of moving his fingers, but she is someone he can’t fully relax about despite racking his brains.

The phone on the desk rang, he picked it up, the department manager’s trembling voice was slightly shaky, last time he approved Avery Jane’s leave, he almost couldn’t keep his job, now that deity has already delivered the resignation letter to his desk, if he approves it, will it mean the end for him?

Death would be okay; the problem is it may make him die an ugly death.

”President Hughes, today Miss Jane submitted her resignation, what do you think......?” he asked cautiously, he wanted to ask President Hughes whether to approve or not, but he didn’t dare, fearing that saying one more word would be wrong; how could a minor employee usually be allowed to call and report like this?

But that Avery Jane definitely has an unusual relationship with Joshua Hughes, when Avery Jane went to Sydney, Joshua Hughes immediately flew there on a private plane, absolutely not a coincidence. Their relationship is already obvious, but cannot be openly discussed. Why is such a hot potato in his department?

This morning she got up, obediently ate breakfast, and went to the company with him, but she unexpectedly proposed to resign on her own. If it were before, he couldn’t wait for her to resign immediately, but judging by her condition these past two days, resigning might make her emotions worse. Being in the company, one always has to guard against Luis Hughes and his people doing anything detrimental to her, if she’s sent back to the old mansion, the situation might be even worse.

”Hmm.” sounded the response, the caller had already hung up, leaving the department manager there, cold sweat dripping. That ”hmm” meant what exactly? Approve or not approve? What should he do? That thin piece of paper on the desk seemed so irritating, almost to the point of wanting to tear it up.

”Come to the top floor immediately.” The man’s voice on the other end of the phone was deep and magnetic, even without seeing the phone number, one could know who the voice belonged to, possessing high recognition, a man with such a voice always evokes fantasies in women, but before she even started to fantasize, the phone had already hung up.

She glanced at Avery Jane sitting opposite, head down, her mood hasn’t been high all day, not too willing to talk much, looking uncomfortable all day, sipping cup after cup of hot water. She’s a smart person, naturally wouldn’t mention Joshua Hughes finding her to Avery Jane, took a folder pretending to have errands to run and walked out.
