Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 62

All the people laughed because they thought it sounded like a joke. And they even thought that he was really stupid, because it didn't work even though he didn't admit that it was his signature.

When Antonio calmed down, he took a deep breath and then said, "I have to check the accounts at the Financial Department first, please wait a moment."

Avid secretly tugged at the sleeve of the man standing behind him, and the man understood and immediately raised his own question, "Mr. Antonio, we trusted you before. But now we have to be more vigilant. You said that you were going to check the accounts at the Financial Department. What if you take the opportunity to make up for the funds or tamper with the account book?"

Antonio tried to control his anger and asked him patiently, "Then what do you want to do?"

The man smiled and touched his moustache on his chin and said, "I think we should check the accounts together with Mr. Antonio, so that we can confirm whether you are wrongly accused. And we won't divulge the secrets of our company."

Antonio sneered and then went upstairs followed by the shareholders. Many shareholders had been working in the company for many years, and they felt interested when they saw Antonio was accused. So they didn't regard him as their president at this time and they didn't even feel tired when they went upstairs.

They got to the Financial Department soon. The girl in the reception was too surprised to say anything when she saw so many shareholders. But no one would pay attention to her at this time.

On this floor, except for the pantry and toilet, as well as the office of the CFO, it was full of paper documents in this room of more than 100 square meters.

There was a horizontal row for every eight people, and a vertical row for every eight people. There was a young or skilled accountant sitting in front of each computer desk and working; some accountant were pressing the buttons of the calculator with their left hands, and writing down the data on the papers with their right hands; some accountants were carrying the paper documents to their computer desks to record the data into the computers.

They had no time to chat with each other. If he didn't come here to check the accounts, he wouldn't know that the staff of the Financial Department worked so hard. Someone walked out of the office and saw Antonio, and then she walked towards Antonio and asked him with respect, "Mr. Antonio, why do you come here?"

Antonio just nodded but didn't say anything. All the staff saw the president at this time. So they stopped working and stood up.

"It's none of your business, just keep working." At least he was still the president in their minds, and they had to follow his order. So they sat down and continued to work in one second.

Antonio stopped for a while and felt a bit angry because the staff who was standing in front of him didn't leave, and she even kept asking, "Mr. Antonio, I am the Deputy Director of the Financial Department. I can help you if you need."

Antonio didn't let them know what happened. Although he didn't do it, as the president of the company, he didn't allow himself to be embarrassed in front of his staff.

When Antonio wanted to ask her to leave, Avid said again, "You are the Deputy Director, right? Mr. Antonio is now suspected of embezzling public funds from our company. Please get information from the finance department for us."

Actually, all the staff of the financial department were pretending to focus on work, so when they heard about it, they all wanted to know more about it.

The Deputy Director was a middle-aged woman who was over 30 years old, with full breasts, golden curly hair, heavy makeup and red lipstick. She was definitely sexy, and she even coquetted with Antonio just now. But now she was thinking about whether the president had really done it after she heard about it.

She went back to her office with questions. And then she slowly typed the capital flow data of this month into files.

"Mr. Antonio, here is all the capital flow data of this month."

Antonio nodded and thought that she was an extremely inefficient employee. And then he said loudly, "Don't you have enough paper at the Financial Department?"

"What?" The Deputy Director didn't understand him.

Finally, Avid reminded her secretly. She was scared when she finally understood what Antonio wanted to say.

Antonio glanced at her and said to her with anger, "Koby, settle the salary for her. I don't want to see her in the company anymore."

She was really stupid. There were so many shareholders here, and she only typed the data to Antonio. She made the mistake when Antonio was angry, so she was fired.

And then Antonio suddenly thought that Koby stayed with Adelaide in the hospital, and he didn't know whether Flora kept bothering him and Adelaide or not after he left.

"OK."

Antonio turned back and found that Alvin nodded with agreement and asked his own secretary to help him do it. And the Deputy Director was shocked because she didn't expect that she would be fired in this way.

She didn't want to be fired, so she held Antonio's legs and cried out. However, Antonio hated her even more. He really felt bad now, so he didn't want anyone to cry out in front of him. Moreover, he had never liked her.

"Get away from me!" He held her hands and pushed her to the desk near him. And then he tried to calm himself down to check the data. And he found that the card number on the account book was the same as that recorded on the data in his hands. Although he wasn't the payee, 300 million was transferred through his bank card.

Antonio thought that he was in trouble, and he felt that someone was setting a trap for him and wanted to ruin him. The paper was a little deformed by him, and he said seriously, "If I can't prove that I am innocent after one week, I will resign from the position of president."

"One week? What if you run away..." Someone said.

Avid interrupted him, "I trust you. You can do it. But if you can't prove that you are innocent after one week, you should know what to do."

"OK."

Antonio nodded. And then he left under their attention, with the files in his hands.

After he came back to his own office, he took up his phone and called Koby at once. Before there was anyone speaking on the phone, he said first, "Koby, please come back as soon as you finish handling the matter about Adelaide."
