Invincible Heir

Chapter 17 Humiliation and spite

Feet catching, Henry stumbled and collapsed into the sofa, dazed.

“Don’t panic, Granddad. There has to be some misunderstanding here. The contract was printed just this morning. The ink’s not even dry. How exactly are we violating the contract?” Phillip said hurriedly.

An iota of liveliness returned to Henry’s pupils, and he perked up. “That’s right. We couldn’t have. Did they mention which term of the contract we supposedly broke?”

Phillip shook his head. “All they’re saying is that we violated the agreement and would have to pay fitting reparation, or else they’re liable to sue.”

“What?”

Henry’s budding hopes dashed themselves to pieces. “Call up everyone for a meeting!”

“Granddad, I...”

Henry shouted any questions Phillip might have had back down his throat. “I want everyone in the meeting room in ten minutes.”

Ten minutes later, in the penthouse meeting room.

“Granddad, everyone’s here except for Tracy,” Phillip reported.

Henry’s brow twitched. “No need to wait, then. Phillip - explain.”

Phillip nodded and proceeded to explain everything about the phone call from the beginning.

Everyone on the scene wore the same expression of shock as he finished.

“Mr. Chairman, how is this possible?”

“Right? We secured that contract in the morning; the day’s not even over yet and they’re accusing us of breaking terms?”

“It’s a plot hatched by Tracy and the Brone company. They have it in for us!”

The attendees’ collective surprise had boiled over into self-righteous indignation.

“Enough yammering!”

Henry slapped the desk, quieting the mob with a roar.
