Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2453 - 1822: Awakening of Insects

Cilio, the son of Brown and formerly the Deputy Executive President of Zhenbei Group’s Africa Division, has found himself confined at home recently. This wasn't by his own choice, but rather Brown's insistence, resembling a form of house arrest.

When Cilio was initially suspended, resentment simmered within him. He harbored a desire to retaliate against Bai Xiaosheng and secretly defied the group's directives.

How did he manage this defiance?

It's essential to note that his father, Brown, still wielded significant influence as the de facto leader within the Africa Division's operations. His loyal subordinates naturally continued to heed his commands.

Consequently, Cilio, despite the removal of his official title, maintained control over numerous enterprises, effectively operating as an unrecognized authority figure.

However, this "capable individual," Cilio, harbored intentions to foment unrest among the businesses under his sway. His aim was to protest what he perceived as an "unjust decision from above" and to underscore his own indispensability in managing affairs.

Cilio firmly believed that the transgressions he committed were minor and that the severe errors unearthed during the investigation were the result of a deliberate setup, which he considered profoundly unfair.

Naturally, Cilio's clandestine plans were promptly relayed to Brown by a few trusted confidants.

While Cilio's approach was radical, none dared to join him in such risky endeavors.

Challenging superiors and openly defying those in higher positions?

Such actions are considered major taboos in the corporate world; anyone crossing this line faces ruin with no hope of recovery!

Upon discovering Cilio's intentions, Brown reacted swiftly. He confined Cilio to his home, strictly prohibiting any outings and, more importantly, enforcing a ban on enterprises complying with Cilio's directives. Immediate dismissal was threatened for any violators.

Cilio's influence stemmed entirely from Brown. Once the latter issued a decree, Cilio's commands became utterly powerless.

In his frustration, Cilio remained home for several days, seeing no visitors.

Yet, as time progressed, a sense of calm gradually settled over Cilio's mind.

One day, after partaking in breakfast, Cilio retreated to his study. He powered up his computer, intending to dedicate time to a business concept book he had been diligently developing.

Despite Cilio's numerous flaws, Brown often commended his boundless energy and optimistic outlook. Even during his suspension, Cilio viewed it as a temporary setback, confident in his eventual return to power. He felt the need to prepare a comprehensive strategy for that future moment.

Thus, Cilio was "preparing proactively.".

However, just as he was about to commence his work, a notification appeared, indicating the arrival of an important email with an attached document.

Initially, Cilio felt disinclined to investigate, but a fleeting glance at the file's name sent a jolt through him, prompting him to swiftly click and open it.

The file was ominously titled, "Second-Phase Investigation Report on Current Issues in Africa Division Enterprises!"

Cilio opened his email, observed the message, and the full title of the attachment, causing his eyes to narrow sharply.

With the final resolution issued by the group headquarters, hadn't the investigation into problematic enterprises within the Africa Division, overseen by his father, already reached its conclusion?

Why was there a second-phase investigation underway?!

Cilio was completely taken aback.

Most critically, who was responsible for compiling this report?

And who had sent it to him?

Cilio rapidly downloaded the attached file and immediately opened it to examine its contents.

The author of the report was evident; a signature within the document identified Bai Xiaosheng, the individual spearheading the investigation in this region.

"Is Bai Xiaosheng a hyena? If he sinks his teeth in, he never lets go!" Cilio exclaimed, a mixture of shock and fury causing him to slam his fist onto the table.

His loathing for Bai Xiaosheng was so intense that he gritted his teeth, holding him responsible for his downfall and the tarnishing of his father's reputation!

Despite the group headquarters issuing directives to cease further action, Bai Xiaosheng persisted relentlessly!

A chilling coldness instantly descended upon Cilio's gaze.

Furthermore, Cilio was plagued by a multitude of questions.

This second-phase investigation report, authored by Bai Xiaosheng, should have been directly submitted to the headquarters. So, why had it found its way to him?

Could Bai Xiaosheng have mistakenly sent it to him?

The likelihood of such an error was perhaps slimmer than the chances of Mars colliding with Earth.

Then, who was the sender?

Cilio checked the sender's details and discovered it was an unfamiliar email address.

It was clear that whoever sent it wished to remain anonymous to Cilio.

Who could it be? Cilio's brow furrowed deeply.

Individuals with access to such information would likely be close associates of Bai Xiaosheng or hold unusual positions within the group headquarters.

Regardless of the possibility, they should have been acting out of deference to his father.

However, another perplexing aspect arose: if this was intended as a warning, why was it directed to him instead of his father?

Cilio found himself utterly unable to unravel the mystery. He decided to cease contemplation and began poring over the contents of the second-phase investigation report...

Cilio read with a mixture of astonishment and indignation.

This report, which detailed the issues of twelve enterprises, was far from exhaustive. Ten of these entities were directly linked to him. Seven had prior dealings, while the other three, though not directly under his command, maintained substantial connections to the businesses he oversaw.

The company facing the least amount of trouble was none other than the renowned Yorko Company.

Glancing over the report's various listed problems, particularly those within the ten enterprises previously under his direct administration, Cilio found it difficult to accept the reality.

"Preposterous! How could the businesses I managed be riddled with so many issues? Who would dare to act so boldly right under my nose?!" Cilio's breathing grew ragged, his heart refusing to accept the findings.

The insignificant waste Tike had previously mentioned that Bai Xiaosheng might have had some disagreements with his father at the group's main office...
