I’m Someone Else

Chapter 379

“Miss Pearson, what should we do next?” asked the six vice presidents in a whisper. This was the first time Keyshire Property had suffered such a huge loss since its founding. How dare these business partners actually tear up their contracts unilaterally! They must be really tired of living! As long as Miss Pearson gives the order, we can easily make these former business partners pay for it!

Although Keyshire Property appeared to be in a precarious situation now, it still had a solid foundation. If the company really made up its mind to engage in a showdown with those business partners, the other party wouldn’t be able to handle it either.

“Phew!” Olivia took a deep breath to compose her emotions. Then, she instructed frostily, “Don’t let off any single one of those who are working behind the scenes against our company! Deal with them one at a time, but don’t be greedy. Crush one of them and then move on to the next one! Aren’t they trying to bankrupt us? Well then, we’ll bankrupt them before that!” She continued, “Also, aren’t they trying to poach our employees? It’s just a matter of who is paying more. Get everyone in the human resources department to go to their companies to recruit their core employees and executives. Anyone willing to switch to our company will have their salary and benefits doubled! Moreover, I’ll give all of you three days to make those companies who tore up their partnership agreements pay the price! Tell the Legal Department to follow the legal procedures and take them to court. If we can’t make them pay a devastating price, then there’s no point in having a Legal Department anymore!”

At this very moment, she looked just like a goddess in all her glory, calmly and methodically giving one instruction after another. “Trying to bring us down, huh? I’d really like to see who gave them the nerve to do this!”

“Alright!” The six vice presidents were stunned. This was precisely what they had been waiting to hear from Olivia! With her giving the nod, the clarion call sounded for Keyshire Property’s counterattack. This isn’t going to end so easily after they made us lose so much money! Those villains must pay a terrible price for this!

It wasn’t solely because of Rafael that Keyshire Property had gotten to where it was today. The company was filled with talented individuals, especially those with an iron fist. Once it began to fight back, the world would certainly be shocked by the sharp fangs displayed by this behemoth!

Just when the six vice presidents were about to leave, Thomas came out of the kitchen. “Wait a minute!”

The six vice presidents were all stunned by his appearance. “Mr. Clifford! Y-Your hair—”

Thomas said with a wave of his hand, “This isn’t time to talk about that! Here, Olivia, take these.” He placed a thick stack of business cards in front of Olivia. There were over 40 of them, which were exactly the ones Emily had given him. Each of these cards belonged to the person in charge of each of the Travis Family’s businesses in Irieson!

“What are these?” Olivia looked puzzled. Why is he giving me so many business cards?

Thomas smiled. “If you need help, these people on these business cards will lend a hand. Just tell them that I’m asking for their help.”

Olivia immediately picked up these business cards to take a look. As she looked through them, the gloomy expression on her face vanished and was replaced by a smile!

These companies weren’t as big as Keyshire Property, but their sheer number alone made them the leading companies in Irieson. If they were truly willing to help, there was no way Keyshire Property would fail to make a turnaround! But where did Thomas get so many business cards? Does he personally know the people on these business cards?

Just then, Thomas added, “Also, you can ask the Mortons, the Peralta Family, and the Elliotts for help. Just approach them directly. I’ll call them later to let them know about this in advance.”

“Gasp!” The six vice presidents let out a gasp of astonishment. “The Mortons, the Peralta Family, and the Elliotts? Aren’t they all some of the most powerful families in Irieson? Each of these families alone can rival a nation in terms of wealth! And yet, Mr. Clifford can actually command their assistance? Just how capable is he, then? He’s really out of the ordinary!” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

At this point, Thomas lovingly patted Olivia’s head, saying, “Look at how worried you are. Come on, smile a little. It’s not a big deal. Don’t forget that if all else fails, you still have me standing at your back. I promised you that I’d protect you for the rest of your life, whether in business or any other aspect of life! Alright, the food is almost ready now. Just come and eat if you’re done. I’ll go serve the dishes.”

He had caught the gist of her conversation with the six vice presidents earlier, so he naturally knew she was angry. At first, he hadn’t intended to intervene, but since those people dared to make her angry, he couldn’t let them get away with this! I may not know anything about business, but my friends do! Connections, funding, you name it—I’ll take on all of these people!

Olivia stood there transfixed while watching the man from behind. She couldn’t help but feel that he had changed. He had become more and more powerful, so powerful that even she had no idea what other hidden aces he had up his sleeve! But then again, when she thought about it, he seemed to have never changed. Whenever she was in danger or trouble, he would always step up to the plate and save her from her predicament! That’s what he promised me: to protect me for the rest of my life! “I love you, Thomas!” she murmured unconsciously.

The six vice presidents exchanged knowing glances and smiled, keeping their thoughts unspoken. None of them said anything.

Olivia’s words were spoken in a whisper, but they heard them clearly. In reality, rumors about her relationship with Thomas were well-known within Keyshire Property, so it went without saying that they had also heard about them. Especially after coming to Northpine Villa and seeing the pair living

together, they became undoubtedly certain that she and Thomas must be a couple! Those rumors must be true! Well, only a man with extraordinary abilities like Mr. Clifford is good enough for Miss Pearson!

The six of them said goodbye to Olivia and left the villa. Olivia did politely invite them to stay for dinner, but they weren’t that blind, of course. Staying here would only keep the couple from having a sweet time together, no? Hence, they all declined her kind offer.

Thomas and Olivia had just finished dinner when his phone rang. He picked it up to take a look, and it was none other than Quincy, his friend from an older generation. “Hey, Quincy. What’s up?”

Quincy came straight to the point—the purpose he called was to ask Thomas about his plans for the Ancient Martial Arts Family Ranking Competition scheduled for a year later. After explaining the qualifications and requirements for entry into the competition, he said, “Thomas, if you want to take part in the competition and seek revenge on the Flynns and the Wilkersons, you can join the Duncan Family where my student Theodore is. I’ve talked to him about this. Alternatively, you can establish your own family.”
