2024-10-29 19:42:56Just after Roger entered the Emerald company, A Porsche car was slowly parked in a spot beside just where Roger had parked his bike.
A young couple got out of the car.
The man was wearing a branded suit, looking somewhat handsome and the young lady with him was dressed in a flamboyant style, although not to the extent of Hestia, she was somewhat a beauty.
As it turned out, the man was Joseph Moore and the lady was Hestia's cousin, Erza.
comming directly inside Emerald's building, they directly went to the reception and asked the lady there if they have an appointment to meet with the chairman.
The lady politely asked them to wait while she contacted the executives who work directly under the Chairman.
But as it turns out, It seems that the Chairman was in a meeting with a VIP, so she politely asked joseph and Erza to wait and guided them to the waiting room.
The Moore family always wanted to be a part of a shareholder in Emerald business but the problem was that the whole assent of the Moore family didn't even account for 20% of its share.
The Emerald company was a massive business company that was spread out throughout the states and was worth a whopping 10 billion dollars, it was still a wonder, how Roger had managed to take over such a huge company.
Joseph and Erza didn't need to wait much longer as an executive came into the room with several guards.
Joseph asked the executive officer in confusion, "Hello, May I know if the Chairman is available to see us now?"
The Executive glared at Joseph in response and said, "Sorry, Our Chairman said that the Emerald does not do business with beggars and asked you not to disgrace our company's fame. From now on, all the projects and collaboration with the Moore family will be severed"
"What did you say?"
Joseph gaped in extreme shock! he was so shocked that his jaw almost hit the ground. and more than the shock, he found the remarks somewhat familiar.
Oh right! He said the same thing to Roger yesterday! But that and this didn't make any sense, what connection would that poor loser have with the Emerald company?
Brushing that matter aside for now, he felt a surge of blood and great anger at the executive.
What did this excecutive mean by beggars? did the Emerald really intend to sever all their collaboration with the Moore family?
What happened?
What the hell happened for them to make such a harsh decision?
A large portion of Moore's family's profits come from collaboration with the Emerald company! and if Emerald terminate their ties with the Moore family, didn't it mean that the family's worth would plummet by half?
No, he couldn't accept such a fact!
His father and grandfather would kill him if that happened! He absolutely couldn't let that happen!
"I want to meet the Chairman, I will ask him personally!"
But the reality wasn't kind to him.
In response to his outburst, the executive just glared at him coldly and said, "I am sorry, the chairman is busy, he will not see you, and you are not allowed here in the future"
Joseph shouted in rage, "Are you freeking kidding me? We are a long-time business partner of Emerald, it isn't up to him to terminate our collaboration! don't mess with the Moore family"
The executive gaze turned colder at his words as he said in a deep tone, "Mr.Joseph, the Moore family didn't even amount to an ant before the Emerald company! I am talking with you patiently only because you were a long-time business partner with us, please leave right now, don't force me to resort to extreme measures"
"you...!! Do you know who you are messing with? If the family head hears of this...you will all..."
The Executive ignored his screaming and directed the security guards around him "Kick these beggars out!"
The guards around him immediately jumped on them, and the guard captain grabbed Joseph's Wrist and twisted it behind him, "Hurry and get out of here! If you dare to make a scene here, I will have to break a bone or two"
"You are just a security guard! how dare you threaten me, the heir of the Moore family?"
Joseph shouted at him.
Little did he know that the guard captain was the secret executive of 'Blackstrom' who was in a disguise.
Not like the guard captain bothered to tell him that instead he just give him a hard slap on his face.
Joseph felt his face burning from the slap and was about to burst into fury when his phone rang!
It was his father!
When he answered the call, a furious roar echoed from the other end, " You basta*d! What did you do? Emerald group wants to terminate all their collaboration with us! Who the hell did you mess up with, you damn unfilial son!"
Joseph in response whined sorrowfully, "No, Dad, I didn't offend anyone. I just came here to see the chairman, I haven't even seen his face yet..."
Joseph's father shouted again," You lowly garbage! The people at the emerald said they want to terminate the contract because of you! Our family is at a great loss because of you bastard! come and explain it to your grandfather yourself!"
Joseph was frozen stiff with his phone still in his ears hearing his father. But the guard captain didn't wait for him to come out of the daze, instead, he escorted them out forcefully.
Suddenly a face appeared in joseph's mind as he came out of a daze, 'No, it isn't possible, it isn't possible, he is such a loser...' He suppressed that thought even before he could think anything about that person.
-----
Meanwhile, in the hallway of the highest floor, Roger was smiling broadly after seeing everything that happened.
He especially liked the part where the guard captain gave a slap across Joseph's face.
"That was satisfying! I heard that he was the executive under 'Esconor', what was his name again?"
He asked the beauty behind him.
"Yes sir, he was the third trainee under sir 'Esconor', Kim-sohyun" It was Pearl, who responded to him immediately.
"Hmmm...give him a bonus "
He was overjoyed with his actions that he was even giving him a bonus.
"and one more thing, make sure to announce that the ownership of the Emerald business has been changed, just keep the name secrete for now and if anyone pesters you to reveal the name, just tell them if they want to know my name, then win tender bidding for the hospital construction, that we are conducting next week"
"Yes, Sir"
A lot of things are going to change now!

The announcement that the ownership of the Emerald has been changed and the news about how Emerald has cut all the ties with The Moore family shook the entire White bridge town. When the Taylor family heard about the news, they figured out that the reason that the ties with the Moore family has been cut off was probably that the new owner of the Emerald didn't think much of the Moore family. Rather than that, Lord Taylor was shaking with anger when the news reached his ears. He wanted to call off the marriage of Erza with Joseph at that exact movement but he knew that even if the Moore family had no ties with Emerald, they would still be stronger than the Taylors and without anything to guarantee, he couldn't lose the ties, so he could grit his teeth and bear it with for now.

It was a cemetery. Countless gravestones stood on the land, like swords stuck to the ground and the whole graveyard was surrounded by a board fence. Most of the headstones were no longer even legible. Grass and weeds grew rank over the whole cemetery. And in the middle of such cemetery stood a crowd of people. They were gathered around a burial hole that was dug out with a heap of sand just beside it. There were people crying and wailing on one side of the burial site and the people who were standing ideally, talking about something as if they were busy on the other side. And in the middle of all the wailing and talking was a boy, sitting just in front of the burial site with a corpse in front of him. By his appearance, he seemed to be about 10 or 11 years at most, but his eyes told otherwise. he was watching a corpse of a certain woman, who was covered in whole by white cloths.
