Chapter 557 Trapped by Someone (2)_1
Indeed, as soon as Brown Kress left the last law firm, he received an exasperated call from his mother, Mrs. Brown, "Brown Kress, you — get back here immediately."
After Mrs. Brown barked out those words, she hung up the phone. Brown Kress, listening to his mother’s furious voice, had a bad feeling in his heart. However, he had not yet linked his mother’s rage to the contract issue with Dragon Society.
Having received his mother’s call, Brown Kress didn’t dare linger; he got into his car and hurried to the Brown family’s ancestral home. While on the road, he got another call from a shareholder of the company. It was from this shareholder that Brown Kress learned that the news about the issue with the contract he signed with Dragon Society had spread everywhere.
Not just the people from Brown Group but those from other families knew about it.
Over the phone, Brown Kress was reprimanded by that shareholder. At that moment, even if Brown Kress was reluctant to accept it, he offered no rebuttal, as the problem with the contract was a result of his own carelessness.
Moreover, should the contract issue remain unresolved, the shareholders would suffer great financial losses. So, at this time, what stance did Brown Kress have to argue?
Just after being scolded by the Brown Group shareholder and the call ended, Brown Kress’s phone started ringing again. By now, knowing that the contract issue had been exposed, he didn’t pick up the call, waiting instead for the phone to keep ringing until it stopped.
He himself, however, slumped onto the car seat like a deflated ball.
