At the event venue, Bruce White noticed that as soon as Robert Drey heard this voice, he exuded a palpable sense of fear. His whole body began to shiver involuntarily.

“Robert Drey, get your behind over here!!” At this time, that voice sounded again, bossing Robert Drey around with total arrogance.

Hearing those words, Robert Drey shuddered before he gave Bruce White an apologetic look. The moment he turned around, there was an ingratiating smile on his face as he headed straight for the man who summoned him.

“My dear Mr. Zane, it’s nothing more than a misunderstanding. Some random folk wanted to come in and have a look at the festivities. They are leaving right now, right this minute,” Robert Drey said with a fawning smile.

Billy Zane?

At this moment, Bruce White finally saw the man’s face clearly and it was none other than Thomas Zane’s younger brother, Billy.

“Billy Zane is now the Director of Business Development of the corporation and Bob’s immediate boss.” At this time, Howard Wagner informed him on the side.

Billy Zane was qualified to be the Director of Business Development?

Bruce White was slightly surprised. However, after some thought about the matter, he understood. Thomas Zane stole the Zane Corporation from him. How could Billy Zane as his younger brother not gain something out of the whole nasty ordeal?

However, it did surprise Bruce White that Thomas Zane would allow a useless waste of space like him take on an important position like the Director of Business Development.

Indeed, in the eyes of Bruce White, Billy Zane was just a useless piece of garbage.

Back then, Billy Zane had just graduated from college and couldn’t find a job, so Thomas Zane recommended that he work at their company.

Due to Thomas Zane’s position as one of the shareholders, Bruce White assigned Billy Zane to Business Development, starting from the bottom as a salesman.

But Billy Zane was not suited for a career that required hard work. Relying on Thomas Zane’s position in the company, Billy was lazy and loathed the work he was assigned. His favorite assignment was harassing the female staff of the company.

It was at this time that the company was in a phase of rapid growth, and Business Development was the most important source of capital. But Billy Zane proved to be seriously deficient as part of the organization.

Not only was he incompetent, he was also far too egotistical. He used Thomas Zane’s authority within the company to extort other business partners and caused the company to lose several key business accounts as a result.

Severely disappointed and angry with what he had done, Bruce White reassigned him to the assembly line as an entry-level associate.

However, he never dreamed that after he was kicked out of the company, this a sorry excuse of a human being would be promoted to such an important position. It seemed that Thomas Zane’s nepotism hadn’t changed one bit.

When he thought of this, a sense of indifference appeared on Bruce White’s face and he regarded Thomas Zane with coldness.

At this time, Billy Zane glanced at Robert Drey who was smiling obsequiously, and then at Bruce White with some curiosity. Then, he chided Robert Drey sternly, “Did anyone tell you that you can speak here?”

Robert Drey was taken aback by this remark, but he was still careful to keep that ingratiating smile on his face.

Then, Billy Zane brought Robert Drey and several of his lackeys up to Bruce White, and said to Bruce White sarcastically, “How about it, Chairman White, what do they serve you in jail nowadays?”

As soon as he said that, his lackeys started laughing. Their laughter was full of nothing but mockery.

Even Robert Drey was laughing with them at this time. Except his laughter did not satisfy Billy Zane’s ego.

Billy Zane glared at him with cold disapproval and screamed at him, “What are you laughing at? Did I give you permission to laugh?”

“I...” Robert Drey was a little stunned, unsure of what to say. A touch of sadness flashed across his face, but he maintained the smile on his face.

Robert Drey had an embarrassingly awkward look on his face and Howard Wagner couldn’t stand it anymore. He said to Robert Drey, “Bob! Don’t listen to him. Bruce is back now and we will take back the company. In the future, we won’t have to look at his face anymore.

“Just now, I told them I QUIT! Come on, Bob, this kind of company and this kind of boss—what’s the point in staying?”

But Robert Drey had an impatient expression on his face when he heard those words. “Fatso, shut your trap! Don’t you understand the situation right now??”

“Bob, you-” Howard Wagner looked disappointed as he stared at Robert Drey with disbelief. “Bob, when have you become like this?”

Robert Drey looked at Billy Zane wearily, before he continued impatiently, “Go on! Get away from me! My affairs are none of your concern and none of Bruce White’s concern either!”

“Hahaha...”

After hearing what Robert Drey had to say, Billy Zane burst out laughing. He looked at Bruce White with jest. “Did you see that, Bruce White? This is your good brother speaking about you.”

Originally, he had wanted to see Bruce White infuriated by this blatant betrayal of his old comrade. But after seeing that Bruce White’s demeanor had not changed, Billy Zane suddenly felt a little disappointed.

He looked at Robert Drey again and the expression on his face gradually changed as if he thought of something interesting. “Come on Robert Drey, here is one hundred thousand dollars. As long as you kneel in front of me and repeat three times that Bruce White is not a man, the money is yours.”

This...

Robert Drey was a little stunned at first, but he immediately said with a pleading smile, “My dear Mr. Zane, don’t make fun of me.”

“Make fun of you?” Billy Zane let out a cold laugh, then kicked Robert Drey in the shin. “Do I look like I’m making fun of you right now?

“Immediately! Right now! Otherwise, you won’t get a penny from this month’s salary or commissions!”

With a bang, Robert Drey fell to his knees and prostrated on the ground, a look of immense shame on his face. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

“Bruce, this...” Howard Wagner was extremely indignant and offended. But Billy Zane had numbers on his side and there was nothing he could do. All he could do was pin his hopes on Bruce White.

At this time, Bruce White took a step forward and said to Robert Drey, who was prostrated on the ground, “If you are a man, stand up!”

But Robert Drey only shook his head dejectedly when heard those words. “Bruce White, save it. You can’t even save yourself now, so don’t bother telling me what to do.

“I’m not afraid to tell you that some bigwig from the Headquarters of the Eastern Defense will come here in person very soon. At that time, Chairman Zane’s power would become greater than ever. What do you have to use against someone like him?

“Stop dreaming your idiotic dreams. In this world, only someone like Fatso will believe your nonsense.”

After saying all this, Robert Drey crawled to Billy Zane’s feet like a puppy wagging his tail to beg.

This time, Bruce White didn’t stop him. Everyone had a choice. Since Robert Drey chose not to believe in him, it was useless to say anything more.

“Mr. Zane, I knelt down already, please forgive me this time. From now on, if you tell me to go east I will never go west.” Robert Drey returned to Billy Zane’s side and continued to plead with him.

But Billy Zane remained unmoved by his pleading and kicked him instead. “Piece of crap! My words don’t mean anything to you anymore, huh? You can forget about this month’s salary and commission! You’ll get NOTHING!!!”

Wow!

Robert Drey shuddered when he heard the news. He crawled over to Billy Zane’s feet and begged him bitterly.

But Billy Zane continued to dismiss him and kicked him again so that he was out of his way.

“Bob! Get up! Get up! You don’t need to kneel to this kind of human scum!” Howard Wagner exhorted fervently, no longer able to bear what he was seeing.

But Robert Drey was like a possessed man. Once again, like a puppy, he crawled to Billy Zane’s feet.

This was Robert Drey’s choice.

But just like before, Billy Zane kicked Robert Drey away again. Then, with a very provocative look, he glanced at Bruce White with a jeer.

“Are you not totally convinced yet? That’s right, in my eyes he is just a dog. Anyone who chose to follow you before is a dog to me.” Billy Zane laughed a cold laugh.

When Howard Wagner heard this, he was even more pissed off than before. He couldn’t help cursing, “You piece of crap! You are full of nothing but BS! You piece of garbage, you!!”

Billy Zane glared at him like his eyes could spit out fire, and mocked, “Fatso, your head must be filled with manure, right? Are you so gullible as to believe someone who just got out of prison? Take over the Zane Corporation? Really??

“Just him? How is he going to take it back? With what? With his head?

“Hahaha...It’s not that I look down on him, but he’s coming back this time just to mess around and make some money.”

Billy Zane laughed contemptuously. Then, with a wave of his humongous hand, he took out a checkbook and wrote out a check for a hundred thousand dollars.

“Come on, Robert Drey, bark out loud. If I am satisfied with the way you bark, this check is yours. Wait, no, it’s too boring if it’s just one person barking.

“Come on, Howard Wagner, I’ll give you a chance as well. As long as you kneel on the ground and learn how to bark like Robert Drey and make me happy, I will give you one hundred thousand dollars too.

“And you, ex-Chairman Bruce White, you are much nobler than both of them. Certainly, we must give you special treatment! Come on, kneel on the ground and kowtow to me three times, then I will give you TWO hundred thousand dollars!”
