Supreme Mars novel Chapter 135

Looking at the title, William fell speechless, with complicated emotions stuck inside.

With a long pause, he sighed in grieve, "Why did you take me here?"

Without saying anything, Leo walked inside straightforward.

With the look on his face turned into panic, William said, "Stop, Leon! You shall not get inside!"

It was clear to him that although he was the one who established Vesper Corporation, the Lawsons took it away from him, and now even the whole company was sold to others — In his mind, he was no longer qualified to step inside the place of which he was once in charge.

However, he had never expected that Leo would ever step inside as a matter of course.

In a panic, William had no other option but to follow.

At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps was heard in the company, and then there were 50, 60 people coming out from the corridors of both sides.

William, with his face turned pale, was obviously astonished by such a scene, taking them to be people sent here to drive them away.

The group of people, all dressed in suit and tie, stood before Leo and William and said loudly, "Greetings, president Ford!"

Dumbfounded, William took a few minutes to come to his sense, turned back to Leo with confusion and asked, "What's going on, Leon?"

Leo smiled, "From today onwards, dad, your ownership of Vesper Corporation will be retrieved, which means that you're the boss here now."

"Wait… What has happened exactly?"

Looking at the men standing firmly in front of him with incredible eyes, he reminded himself of the things happening these days — the exposure of 316 Event, the upheaval of the structure of Vesper Corporation, the downfall of Julton Pharmaceutical, and the his retrieval of the company's ownership… In a sudden, he began to realize something, as an expression of amaze spread on his face.

"Are you the one who made this happen, Leon?" He asked.

Leo nodded with firmness, "I said I would take Vesper Corporation back, and I always do what I say!"

As William heard his words, tears of excitement shed from his cheeks, and he clutched Leo's hand and said, "You make my dreams come true, Leon!"

Leo offered a thin smile, and patted William on his shoulder.

For William, he was the one who established Vesper Corporation, so it would be natural for him to feel excited about recovering the ownership of Vesper Corporation.

However, he soon cooled himself down and sighed, "You are the one who purchased the whole company, Leon. Why did you choose to transfer its ownership to me?"

Leo shook his head, "Dad, you were just the owner of Vesper Corporation, so it is right and proper that I shall give it back to you. What's more, I'm nothing but a mere retired solider, and know nothing about managing a company. Therefore, Vesper Corporation needs you."

With a pause, he continued, "Besides, you have the final say on the cooperation between Virgil Corporation and L group."

William replied with a bitter wry smile, "You are truly going to play like a hands-off boss, aren't you?"

Leo pointed at the men around and said, "These people are all the most trusted followers of yours three years ago. It broke their hearts when they heard that the company was sold."

William's eyes fell on those staff, and they were all looking at William with solemnity and respect.

Taking a deep breath, William said slowly, "Now, since I have successfully retrieved my place in Vesper Corporation, I won't let you down, and shall lead all of you to make Vesper Corporation great again!"

Leo nodded with satisfaction, and then gave William a list, on which there were names of different people. 

"Dad, take a look at this. These are all the names of the closest men to Peter. Whether they should stay or be demoted, it's up to you."

With his eyesight turned fierce, William said, "If they are indeed the men of Peter, they shall all be swept away from the company."

"But Vesper Corporation is currently having a tough time, so it will be inappropriate for us to conduct massive layoffs at the moment..."

Hearing that, William knitted his brows.

Suddenly, Leo burst into laughter, "But you don't have to worry about that. Those elite taken away by Darcey will soon come back a few days later."

Originally, the turbulence of Vesper Corporation was deliberately triggered by Leo, and his attention was to chasing Peter away.

"Such being the case, they shall all be eliminated from the Vesper Corporation!" Hearing the words of Leo, William decided to be crisp, clean-cut and clear. He looked through the whole list, and then his attention was attracted by one of the names.

"Ah, look what I've found! A traitor who turned his back on his master for the sake of his own profit! How dare he still stay in my company?"

Leo tipped the secretary standing aside with a wink. The secretary soon perceived his attention, and called Martin into the chairman's office.

Before he stepped inside the office, Martin, with excitement on his face, was expecting the new president to grant him a promotion.

However, at the moment when he stepped inside the office, he caught sight of William sitting on the chairman's seat and Leo lying on the sofa.

Stunned for a second, he soon shouted with his face turned pale, "William and Leo? Why the hell are you two here?"

It was the moment when his voice faded that he began to regret his impulse of speech.

According to what the secretary had told him, he was asked by the new president to come across to the chairman's office. Given that there was no one else but William and Leo inside the office, he began to realize the identity of his new boss.

Reminded of what he had done before, Martin was extremely terrified, and his face turned dreadfully pale.

"Gree…Greetings, Mr. Ford!" Said Martin with a trembling voice, daring not to raise his head.

"I think there is no need for anyone to remind you why I am here." Sitting on the chairman's seat, William said with a chilling voice, and looked at him up and down coldly with his narrowed eyes.

With William's eyes falling on him, Martin shuddered out of increasing fear. From the first glance that he saw William sitting inside the office, he knew clearly what was coming to him.

In a sudden, he knelt down before William and kowtowed, "Please forgive me, Mr. Ford! I knew I had done so many bad things before, but I sincerely beg for your mercy!"

Without saying anything, William still fixed his cold eyes on Martin.

"I promoted you out of kindness, but I didn't expect that you would ever betray me and expose our secrets to outsiders! It is because of you that the Ford family suffered from overwhelming plight!"

Shuddering out of fear, Martin struck himself with one slap after another, and begged, "I was deluded by Peter, Mr. Ford! I still have parents to support, and I can't lose this job!"

"Shut up, you shameless traitor! If I were to forgive you, you would be most likely to turn against me once more in the future. You shall no longer be allowed to stay here, you ungrateful soul!" Glaring at Martin, William growled with wrath, which made Martin couldn't help but to tremble.

From the beginning to end, Leo remained silent all along, looking at everything happening in front of him with indifference.

Under the cold eyes of William and Leo, Martin culminated in a breakdown and rushed out of the office staggeringly.

Subsequently, without any hesitation, William made up his mind and fired every single man of Peter.

The company's founder who had once flourished the prospect of Vesper Corporation had returned!

"Mr. President, your investiture is about to begin, and nearly every shareholders of the company is awaiting you in the meeting room." The secretary walked into the office and reported.

William nodded, "OK, I'll be right there."

Then, Leo and William stood up and headed to meeting room straightforward.

Coincidently, to their surprise, Caroline, Rebecca and Patricia encountered Leo and William as the elevator door opened.
