Chapter 45
His movements were a little obvious, but most of them focused on Victor, so they did not notice his
abnormality.
But some noticed it, it was Tom. He narrowed his eyes and thought about it. Then he immediately NôvelDrama.Org content.
figured it out. Zack was clearly feeling guilty and scared. The call Victor received must have something
to do with him!
Victor's expression changed from shock to anger to fear.
After he hung up the phone, his face was filled with dementia. He seemed to lose his soul, and he was
disbelieved.
When people saw this situation, they all had bad feelings. Could it be that something bad happened to
the company?
The scene fell into a strange silence. Richard frowned and said to Victor, "Victor, who's that?"
Victor swallowed heavily. He glanced from the crowd and then to Richard. "It's a call from the
company's finance department."
Richard's heart skipped a beat and he said calmly on the surface, "What happened?"
Victor said with a sad face, "The finance department said that the company had lost ten million dollars
this week..."
"What?!"
Hearing this, Richard could no longer maintain his composure. His face changed greatly and he stood
up, his eyes almost splitting.
The others were also stunned when they heard it. Their brains were blank and their bodies were chill.
The next moment, everyone's emotions burst out.
"How could it lose ten million dollars? Who did it!"
"Yes, it is not a small amount. Without this ten million, our Scott Family's capital chain would break
again!"
"Who did such a wicked thing!"
"Don't let me know who it is. I'll kill him..."
All the Scott Family members began to denounce and became agitated.
Phoebe was also stunned. Someone actually took ten million dollars out? Who would do that? The
Scott Family had just started. Without these ten million dollars, the capital chain would be broken again.
Those partners would definitely conceal the cooperation. By then, the Scott Family company would
slacken. And the last time the funds chain was broken, it left a bad impression on the partners. If it was
broken this time, it would completely offend them.
Tom stared at Zack closely. He found that Zack's face was pale and he kept sweating. Zack pretended
to be calm and his hands holding the glass were trembling.
Ten million dollars, how dare Zack do it.
"Shut up!" Richard slammed on the table, furious and powerful. He was the owner of the Scott Family.
Everyone was afraid of him and immediately quieted down.
Richard took a deep breath and said to Victor, "Who did this?"
Victor said, "I didn't find out."
"What are you saying?" Richard's eyes widened abruptly. "How can you not find out! Are you the one?!"
Victor immediately became anxious, "Dad! What nonsense are you talking about? How could I do such
a thing?! That's what the finance department told me. If you don't believe me, you can call him and ask
personally."
Richard's face was sullen. At this moment, a voice came, "Check out the receiver of this sum of money,
all would be known."
It was Tom. He stood up and said with an odd expression. He glanced at Zack from time to time.
Zack felt his gaze and he was very angry. He wanted to tear Tom's mouth off, but he did not dare to act
rashly, for fear of exposing himself.
It was up to grandpa Richard and the Scott Family to react. If they knew who the person was, they
would have killed him on the spot.
He kept telling himself in his heart that he should be much calmer when bumping into this thing. "I
couldn't admit it even if I would be beaten to death! Anyway, when I transferred the money, I did it very
cautiously and did not leave any trace. The account was directly transferred to Malcolm's account. As
long as I didn't admit it, I would definitely not be suspected!"
In any case, he was not the only one in the company who had the power to transfer the funds away.
Richard glared at Tom discontentedly. "Shut up. You're not allowed to interrupt here!"
Then he turned to Victor and said, "Ask the finance department to check who was the receiver."
Victor nodded and immediately called the treasurer. After a while, he said with a serious expression, "It
is clear. It was transferred to Malcolm's account."
"Malcolm?!"
Hearing this name, Richard's pupils immediately constricted and fear flashed across his eyes.
The other Scott Family members also subconsciously shrank their necks in fear.
Although Malcolm's reputation in H City couldn't compete with Howard Family, it was more terrifying
than it for Scott Family! If they were given the choice to offend Howard Family or Malcolm, they would
rather offend Howard Family.
It was indeed the first family, but they ran a serious business. If offending them, and at the most, it
would block their business, at least there was no problem with personal safety.
But it was different to offend Malcolm. This man had a deep social background. He was very fierce and
cruel and his style was ruthless. Many people who offended Malcolm ended up miserable, and the
whole family suffered a lot.
Just like in the early years, when someone in the Scott Family offended Malcolm, they were tortured
and now they still had a mental shadow. In the end, they had to give their money away.
They really didn't want to have anything to do with Malcolm!
But now, the money was actually transferred directly to Malcolm's account. What did that mean? Was
there any Malcolm's mole in the family?
It was impossible. Soon, they all rejected the idea.
First of all, ten million was a small sum for Malcolm. Malcolm didn't have to do this at all. It was illegal.
Malcolm wouldn't be so stupid.
Then the most reliable explanation was that someone in the family gambled in Malcolm's place, and he
lost money. Thus, the person privately transferred money to pay the debts!
Thinking of this, Richard's face was extremely gloomy, and his body could not help but tremble.
His eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze swept across everyone. He held back his anger, "Who did it?
Get out of here!" said him through clenched teeth.
Hearing his voice, all the Scott Family lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly into
Richard. Zack lowered his head the most and kept hypnotizing himself, "I must be calm."
"I'll count to three. Who did it? Come forward and admit it. When I find out, I'll break your legs!"
Richard's eyes were cold and murderous, making people shudder.
"One..."
"Two..."
Still, no one came forward to admit it. Zack also pretended to be angry.
At this moment, Tom stood up again and said jokingly to Zack, "Zack, at this time, don't you stand up
and admit it?"
Hearing Tom's words, everyone turned to look at Zack.
