My mom’s expression was impassive, while Celine hid a smile. William, as usual, occasionally secretly gave me the middle finger.
My mom coldly asked, “Do you realize you were wrong now?”
I replied coldly, “The new project, the new building. They all have special meaning!”
“I know why he’s being so stubborn!”
“Why?”
“He’s the one who pushed and led the new project. He probably feels like it won’t go forward without him, so he’s being so stubborn.”
“That makes sense. He thinks he’s irreplaceable.”
Whispers arose, but these people were clearly not ordinary passersby. William likely arranged them. Sure enough, upon hearing this, my mom immediately sneered with contempt.
“Bertrand, I’m your mother, also the Chairwoman! Do you think you can use a project to control me?”
“Listen carefully, the new project and the new building have absolutely nothing to do with you from this moment on!”
My mom said coldly, “The new project and the new building are now entirely under Uncle William’s control! Anyone can do this project!”
“Agatha, you can’t do this!”
“Bertrand already has a problem with me. If I steal his project now, he’ll definitely hate me.”
