Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 163

Antonio held a temporary board meeting at noon, fully informing the Board of Directors of a series of actions he had taken over the past few days and receiving a lot of applause.

Facing his outstanding achievements, no one dared to doubt him.

Antonio spoke while looking around at them in a dignified manner. Many of the directors who had mocked him before lowered their heads unconsciously and dared not look into his eyes.

He paused and looked at a person for a while, and that person was Alvin.

In fact, Alvin, his uncle, was his prime suspect for being the mastermind of the skin care product incident.

He was looking forward to the message he could get from Olivia.

However, he had to wait to see the business status of the Delia's retail store after opening before he came to find Olivia.

Sitting on the sofa of the villa, Aadam smashed a glass vigorously. Mario, the boss of the Sunrise Company, just sat opposite to him and was scared. He swallowed his saliva. Obviously, he didn't expect the business of the retail store on the day they held opening ceremony would be so poor with the Delia Group's reputation in the world.

They chose to hold the opening ceremony on a weekend and invested a lot of manpower and material resources to publicize it in the early stage. As a result, only 30 people entered the store for a whole day. Two of them just had a look and left without buying anything.

Such an opening was a bleak unprecedented in J City. The turnover was not even enough to pay for the rent and fees of water and electricity on that day. No wonder he would sit there but dared not say anything.

"Mario, only 28 transactions had been completed. This is the lowest single-day trading volume ever since the Delia Group was founded. Are you kidding me? Or you don't take the Delia Group seriously at all."

Aadam grasped his collar and stared at him with a very unpleasant expression on his face.

Mario was stunned and quickly put on a smiling face, "No, that's not the case. Mr. Aadam, please listen to my explanation."

This was really not his fault. The small company was not listed and therefore was suppressed by every company and group. What's more, he got the chance to cooperate with the Delia Group. Those bosses had showed him mercy for not letting him have zero turnover in one day。

After all, there wouldn't be so many things if he was well prepared. Besides, he only cared about his own business, not knowing that Antonio had replaced most of the cosmetics in J City with the products of the Baron Group.

The Baron Group sold their products below the market price and their products were suitable for the skin of women in J City. Under such circumstances, who would like to spend three or four times the money to buy the cosmetics of Delia just for its brand? The key was that they wouldn't use it after buying it.

Aadam gave him cold glance and reluctantly let go. After Mario repeatedly promised, he agreed not to suspend the contract for the time being. If the business of the retail store was still poor, he would definitely suspend the contract.

"Why don't you get out of here? Do you want me to escort you myself?"

After saying that, Aadam glanced at him impatiently and was very disappointed at him who couldn't take hint.

"You don't have to. You don't have to!" Mario lowered his head in fear and said repeatedly.

After Mario left, Aadam squinted his deep blue eyes and then opened them.

He picked up the report of Antonio from private investigator on the table. He opened it and read several pages carefully. He darkened his face with these actions.

Antonio, a 27-year-old native of J City, graduated from a college whose name was kept secret. Aadam touched his chin. He was angry because of the following messages. At the beginning, the Baron Group was only engaged in real estate. After Antonio's grandfather passed away, he established cosmetics department firmly after becoming the new president.

The Baron Group would like to earn money from men, but it was easier to earn money from women.

Even his valuable words and phrases at the meeting were clearly written on the report by the private investigator. Aadam's eyes were cold again. Unlike the frivolity in the past, he would indeed be influenced by the atmosphere at work and be meticulous in his work.

The report with 10 pages was all about the miracles that Antonio had created for the Baron Group over the years, among them the purchase of the Swift’s Group at the price of 3 million dollar was most talked about by people with great interest.

Seeing the name of the Swifts Group, Aadam suddenly paused. He looked up, saw the housemaid hired in J City and asked subconsciously, "Is the boss of the Swift’s Group the father of Mrs. Baron?"

This old woman liked to gossip when she was free. She looked at Aadam. Seeing that he was looking at her, she threw the broom in her hand quickly and ran over with a happy smile. Soon, she lowered her voice and replied mysteriously, "Yes, Mrs. Baron is as beautiful as an angel. I heard that she..."

"PA!"

Before she finished her words, Angel came and slapped her in the face without asking her to explain. Angel warned her with cruel eyes, "Idiot, don't say that other women are good-looking in front of Aadam."

It was also well known that Aadam was not single-minded to love. Needless to say, those women would try to approach him. When she stopped one from getting close to him, another would succeed. After so many years, she would be furious when she heard others praise in front of Aadam that some women were good-looking without asking reasons.

"Yes." The housemaid didn't know what was wrong, covered the red half of her face and answered cautiously with her head down.

"Angel, you go too far! Our company chose to do business in J City because of its commercial value. The cosmetics giant here refused to cooperate with us, so I asked someone to dig up his past and tried to get to know his wife's family and experience. You are really..." He didn't continue to say. Anyway, Angel knew nothing about cooperation and development. She only cared about eating delicious food, wearing good clothes, and dressing herself up.

Hearing Aadam's explanation, she was somewhat guilty and disliked Adelaide for no reason. She pouted, apologized reluctantly, and then came back to her room.

Aadam sighed. Angel was spoiled by people around her. He took out a sum of money from his pocket and gave it to the housemaid, signaling that she could continue to say. Seeing a thick wad of money, she laughed happily, completely forgetting the warning from Angel who had just slapped her.

She praised Adelaide for being gentle and virtuous and thought: that foreign devil was so ugly and had a bad temper. If you wanted Mr. Aadam to marry you, you could daydream about it. Still with a smile on her face, she told Aadam the old news he didn't know one by one.

"That's to say, Antonio personally acquired the father-in-law's company?" Aadam couldn't stop wondering it.

In the past, he did underestimate Antonio who even acquired the company of his wife's father so openly.

The housemaid nodded with her eyes narrowed, "That's true. Mrs. Baron's uncle and so on went to see her, but she went abroad overnight. They couldn't meet her even if they wanted to and could only watch the Baron Group acquire the Swift’s Group."

"Oh? You even know that she went abroad?"

Aadam was a little curious about whether what she said was true or not. Anyway, what she said was not mentioned in the private investigator's report at all.

"Ah! People who live here might not know each other, but we housemaids, who just work in this area, know each other very well and will talk about it when we chat with each other."
