Please Let Me Go

Chapter 34 - Iron-Blooded Method

Getting to know Adelaide for over a decade, of course she knew her family business. She remembered

the name of Clarissa and her stepmother's name Hanna even better than her own old brother's name.

After confirming with her sister-in-law repetitively, she finally realized that it really might be Clarissa.

She raised her head, thinking that Adelaide's family affairs in all these years were unclear to her, so

she put on a rarely serious expression,

"Adelaide, tell me honestly if that damn sister of yours is really having an affair with Antonio Baron."

When confronted by her lady friend's questioning, she could not even raise her head in shame.

However, with that close friendship before, Hanna soon realized what her reaction meant. She got even

angrier than Adelaide and slapped her small hand on the table, cursing,

“This bitch is digusting. She used to bully you. Now she dares to steal your husband, I'm going to kill

her."

Seeing how she was shooting up as if she really wanted to rush out to avenge her, Adelaide hurriedly

pulled Hanna back.

"Hanna, don't be impulsive, it's not certain that it's true, let me think about it."

Hanna nodded, feeling stuck in her heart. Even the food tasted unpalatable. Hanna knew she must be

very confused right now, so she comforted her with a few words, and sent Adelaide home. Before

leaving, she constantly said that they must expose the ugly face of Clarissa.

Adelaide waved her hands and said that she knew it already.

She did not know if she should tell Antonior now, and was unsure if he would believe her.

At the same time, Antonio was having a headache over the business. There was only the sound of key

strokes in the large office. He someimes slammed the mouse angrily, while at other times chuckled

over something, touching his chin.

Not long after that, a knock on the door interrupted Antonio's thoughts. He straightened his emotions

and said calmly,

"Come in."

Koby entered with a stack of documents. His face was still swollen from Hanna’s hit last time. Though

Antonio really wanted to give him a break, the tough battle going on these days and Koby being his

right hand man left no room for other potential men who could take over his works.

Antonio felt very guilty and bad seeing his face every day, but he could only gve him more salary as a

compensation for his hard work.

He put down the document in his hand and looked at Antonio in a serious manner, but looked

disturbed,

"Mr. Antonio, the stock price went down!"

Antonio squinted his eyes, he saw that the Barons' stock had been green for the whole day. In addition,

the declining rate was even more shocking, which was also why he slammed the mouse.

He was delighted for a bit because that old fox finally got involved in the actions. Although he united

with the Barons' sworn enemies to suppress the company, Antonio finally waited for him to make his

move.

Nodding his head to show his awareness, he then waved his hand. Koby understood his meaning and

was about to leave, but his phone rang.

His face turned sharply colder after answering the call, then he turned to Antonio with a serious

expression,

"Mr. Antonio, someone is going to jump off the roof of the building across the street because of today's

stock plunge."

"What!"

Antonio shot up.

“Let’s go!"

Saying that, Antonio grabbed his jacket on the chair and put it on. With a serious look, they went

downstairs. At this time, there were already a crowd of people under the building across the street.

Among them, there were pedestrians and pesky reporters. The police were in front maintaining the

order, drawing a long cordon and laying a thick air mattress beneath where that man was standing.

It was a twenty-floor building. Any human would crash into dusts if they fell from the top. The negotiator

was shouting from below with a microphone.

However, the mood of the man on the roof remained excited.

Antonio pushed out of the crowd with a heavy face, and went straight to ask the police about the

situation. The police knew Antonio so told him he that this guy had been standing for ten minutes

agitatedly. The negotiator did not really helped either.

He thought for a few seconds, and then said he would fix it himself.

The policeman led him inside the cordon in doubts and let the negotiator give him the microphone.

Antonio took a deep breath.” I am Antonio!

I am the president of the unscrupulous Baron Family. First of all, thank you for your trust and support of

the Barons. No matter how much you lost today, the Barons will compensate all of it. We have cash in

my finance department, if you come down, I'll immediately reimburse the money for you."

"Really?"

The disheveled man asked with the "junk"

microphone in his hand.

Seeing that his face loosened up and his feet taking two steps back, Antonio nodded.

"That's right, even if the Barons collapsed, the interests of shareholders will not be affected."

While the man lowered his head to think, the policeman who was helping with the lifeline at his waist

immediately rushed to his side and tackled him.

Antonio and everybody below exhaled out of relief.

"You will handle the rest!"

Antonio looked at Koby and commanded.

After a long time, Koby returned to his office to tell Antonio that everything had been taken care of.

Antonio nodded in relief. Koby hesitated for half a moment and continued,

"Mr. Antonio, Mr. Alvin has been working on the company's minor shareholders lately.".

Antonio sneered up.

"A childish trick. Thinking that with the stock falling and the stockholders losing confidence in the

Barons, he can bring me down by acquiring a few more shares from those minor shareholders?

Stupid."

Koby reached to push up his glass frames and asked,

"Then Mr. Antonio, are we going to acquire the minor shareholders' shares privately as well, or do you

have other plans?"

He enjoyed following Antonio and was loyal to him. This was a complete faith and affirmation in his

ability of doing his job.

In his opinion, considering Antonio's iron-blooded style, his uncle was definitely not his opponent.

Acquisiting shares?

He probably did not know that one thing Antonio was the best at was buying other companies at

absolutely low prices.

He was quick-witted, tricky, sincere and especially compassionate to the company's employees.

Antonio squinted his eyes as he tapped his fingers rhythmically on his desk,

"No. Since uncle likes to buy with money, let's give him the chance to tighten those small shareholders.

They should all have some hidden secrets, so let's see if the secrets matter more or the money matters

more."

His lips quirked up in a playful smile. He was interested in seeing how much his uncle was willing to

pay to buy those secrets.

Koby nodded,

"Okay, Mr. Antonio, I'll leave if there's nothing else for me now."

"Well, by the way, don't let any more troubles happen. About the reporters. Get someone to buy them a

cup of tea."

Koby lowered his eyes. He had already thought about this and asked his men to find those reporters

after dealing with that troublemaker just now.

However, saying that president Antonio was super meticulous was not a brag. Even his attentive

attempts to solve little things for him were commanded by the president unavoidentally, in which took

away all the fun parts.

He nodded, and then left the office. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

In the office that quieted down again, after dealing with business, Antonio got a even worse headache

thinking of Adelaide and Clarissa.
