Resent, Reject, Regret

Chapter 892 Plead Guilty

“Don’t deserve it, you say?”

Brendan clutched the glass and burst out in laughter upon hearing that, but his eyes

had no joy. “It seems that you’re not the one to determine if I deserve it, Mr. Griffin.”

“Brendan! You’re still unrepentant at this point!” One board member angrily pointed at

Brendan and berated him, “How will the Brighthall Group be in a crisis if not because

of you? Everyone is discussing how to handle the situation with great effort so we can

support the Brighthall Group through the crisis, yet you’ve actually brought a criminal

with you! You brought in the police as well! You’re creating trouble for the Brighthall

Group and bringing dishonor to your family!” “He’s right, Mr. Brighthall. You used to be

outstanding and capable in the past. Even though you were young and reckless, the

board of directors chose to tolerate you because we wanted the Brighthall Group to

grow and expand. Yet, you disregarded the company because of a woman, and

you’ve created such a big mess now!” said Mr. Church with a solemn expression.

“You’re such a disappointment.”

Desmond sneered and said, “Mr. Brighthall, you still have a chance to bring your

woman to plead guilty now. You still have time to get the woman to plead guilty to all

the crimes and serve a sentence in prison. If that is the case, you will be returned to

your position in the company sooner or later.”

Mr. Church refuted, “Don’t be so merciful, Mr. Griffin. Brendan can’t be bothered about

anything because of this woman. If he is fooling around with the company for this

woman today, he will do it again in the future. You’re the only person who can ensure

the growth of the Brighthall Group.” ‘That’s right, that’s right. Mr. Griffin, you can never

yield the ruling position of the Brighthall Group. Brendan has already lost his right to

compete with you.”

The top-level personnel who were promoted and valued by Brendan were looking at

him in disappointment at this very moment.

Everyone would seize the opportunity to attack a person when they lost their

influence, let alone Brendan, whose demotion was witnessed by everyone. Those

people immediately gathered around Desmond’s side and confronted Brendan.

“Mr. Brighthall, you were at fault in this matter from the start, so there is still time for

you to plead guilty to the police personally. It’s your fault for bringing this woman here.

Let alone ruining the party, the company will be in trouble if news of this incident

spreads.” “Quite a number of people are stirring up trouble at the company because of

the incident, and we have already lost quite a few old associates… If this continues, it

will not be beneficial for you. You should plead guilty to the police first and just bail

Miss McKinnon out of jail with your capability when the situation has calmed down.”

“He’s right, Mr. Brighthall. Go and plead guilty first for everyone and the company.”

The revolting voices echoed one after another. Even though they spoke softly, their

tone was rigid. It was as if Brendan would commit a heinous crime if he chose not to

follow their order. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Deirdre felt a shiver down her spine upon hearing that.

These people used to work under Brendan. His demeanor may be cold, but he would

never treat them shabbily. In the end, they chose to oppose Brendan.

Was Brendan such an immature man in their perception?

Brendan’s expression was cold, as usual. He only furrowed his eyebrows ever so

slightly when he heard one of those people’s remarks.

Soon afterward, he smoothed the crease of his sleeve and said, “Reagen, it was me

who promoted you singlehandedly when you were just a storekeeper. I stood my

ground at the time against the majority to stabilize your position, but you’re treating

me this way now?”

Reagan’s expression changed while Desmond took a step forward and chuckled

softly. “What do you mean by you promoting him singlehandedly? You’re

overcompensating, Mr. Brighthall. Frankly, Reagan is outstanding in his performance,

and you noticed his capability. What Reagan has now is the result of his hard work. If

he isn’t outstanding enough, what is the point of you promoting him?”
