Bai Xiaosheng and Kaleb get into a public brawl at a banquet after an argument over Miss Clark. Reid reports the incident to Vice Chairman Morgan, who suspects Bai Xiaosheng's actions are a calculated ploy to target him, not just a spontaneous outburst over a woman. Reid confirms Morgan's suspicions, suggesting Bai Xiaosheng is using the incident as a smokescreen for a larger scheme.

Chapter 2918: Chapter 2030: They’ve Started Fighting! (2)

Whenever Vice Chairman Morgan hears this, he will think of how he praised Kaleb today, and by comparison, his own impression will improve, counteracting any disparaging remarks…

“Hmph!”

After listening to Reid’s words, Vice Chairman Morgan didn’t say much, just gave a light snort.

He then asked, “Is Mrs. Margery there at the moment?”

“Mrs. Margery took Bai Xiaosheng to the lounge to appease him,” Reid hurriedly replied, “But from the look of things, it seems Mrs. Margery is not inclined to stand up for Mr. Kaleb; she hasn’t said a strong word yet.”

Reid, having pledged allegiance to a new master, actually hoped the friction between Vice Chairman Morgan and Mrs. Margery would intensify.

Only then would he be worth the attention.

“Understood.” Vice Chairman Morgan said without showing his emotions and then added, “Thank you, Mr. Reid. If there are any new important developments, you can still report directly to me. That’s all for now.”

“I understand, you take care.” Reid replied promptly.

After hanging up the phone, Reid looked at his phone with satisfaction, then put it away and headed straight for the banquet hall.

“Your conflict, my gain!”

All along the way, Reid was overjoyed, unable to resist the urge to hum a tune in celebration.

As soon as Reid’s call disconnected, Vice Chairman Morgan received another call.

The caller was none other than Kaleb.

Kaleb had been assigned to compete for the position of Executive President of the Sixth Business Division, giving him the power to directly call Vice Chairman Morgan.

Such treatment was not afforded in the past.

However, Kaleb usually wouldn’t dare to make such a call and disturb the great figure that is Vice Chairman Morgan.

Today’s matter, Kaleb thought long and hard before deciding to make this call.

After all, it involved Bai Xiaosheng!

Once the call connected, Kaleb respectfully called out to Mr. Morgan, only to be immediately met with a barrage of scolding.

Even over the phone, Kaleb was startled by the reprimands, feeling both shocked and dejected.

Finally, Vice Chairman Morgan, exasperated at Kaleb’s incompetence, angrily said, “Useless! Don’t sleep tonight! I will have someone contact you to clean up your mess first!”

Kaleb meekly agreed, not daring to refuse.

After hanging up, Kaleb felt pent up, aggrieved, and dejected.

Soon, he realized.

An early exposure to the situation, leaving him no time to cover up, was what caused Mr. Morgan’s anger.

Whoever reported the situation before him was the one making him suffer!

“Reid, you dog!” Kaleb gritted his teeth in anger.

Reid was the only one present who both witnessed the event and could report to Mr. Morgan!

Kaleb’s resentment towards Reid was palpable, swearing to find a chance to seek revenge.

Reid’s clever schemes and sweet words, intended to ease tensions, proved entirely ineffective…

Meanwhile, Vice Chairman Morgan was working overnight to sever all business related to Kaleb, doing his utmost to eliminate evidence…

This was no surprise.

In reality, Vice Chairman Morgan was mad at Kaleb’s incompetence, not overly concerned with Bai Xiaosheng’s next moves.

For Bai Xiaosheng, no strategy or approach could possibly deliver a fatal blow.

However, Vice Chairman Morgan had absolute confidence in eradicating Bai Xiaosheng this time!

Leaving Vice Chairman Morgan aside, returning to the banquet hall, the guests were whispering among themselves, occasionally glancing toward the lounge.

Half an hour later, Bai Xiaosheng and Mrs. Margery emerged from the lounge.

Their private discussion didn’t take long, as they were mindful of the time, aware that a banquet awaited them outside.

Outside the lounge, Fei’er and Miss Clark quickly approached upon seeing the two.

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng again, Miss Clark’s beautiful eyes cast subtle glances filled with curiosity and scrutiny.

This man, so young, holds a position equal to that of Mrs. Margery!

Moreover, he saved half of the Sixth Business Division’s company from dire straits!

Just outside in the hall, hundreds of top entrepreneurs and managers were discussing his accomplishments, all offering their praise and admiration.

This was truly an extraordinary man.

Miss Clark was no longer a young girl inexperienced in the world, well past the age of youthful awakenings, yet at this moment she felt a flutter in her heart for this young man.

Mrs. Margery noticed Miss Clark’s expression, sighed inwardly but said nothing.

“Clark, Mr. Bai said he would support you in becoming Executive President, do your best!” Mrs. Margery quietly encouraged.

If Clark’s feelings for Bai Xiaosheng could become motivation for her to reach new heights, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

Miss Clark looked at Bai Xiaosheng in surprise.

Bai Xiaosheng gave her a smile, and Miss Clark immediately felt her cheeks flush, responding with an earnest nod.

Beside them, Fei’er smiled warmly, offering her congratulations, though the occasion wasn’t suitable for open expressions, she secretly gave Miss Clark’s hand a pull.

Furthermore, Fei’er also noticed Miss Clark’s expression towards Bai Xiaosheng. She, however, only sighed softly to herself.

My dear sister, if you knew the background of his fiancée and how exceptional she is, you would, like me, realize that such a remarkable man does not belong to us, and it’s better not to entertain such feelings…

What Fei’er thought went unspoken.

“Alright, let’s go over there, the banquet is about to begin, and everyone is waiting for us.” Mrs. Margery gestured with a smile.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded, following Mrs. Margery towards the center of the banquet hall.

Fei’er and Miss Clark followed closely behind Bai Xiaosheng and Mrs. Margery.

In fact, ever since Bai Xiaosheng and the others emerged from the lounge, everyone in the room had already taken notice and was spontaneously gathering around.

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng and Mrs. Margery walking side by side towards them, those present smiled and greeted them respectfully.

At the forefront of the crowd, with Kaleb absent, Reid stood out prominently.

At this moment, Reid watched Bai Xiaosheng with a smile, a glint in his eyes.

As Mrs. Margery and Bai Xiaosheng returned to the crowd, the banquet officially began.

All previous unpleasantness seemed forgotten, as Mrs. Margery enthusiastically thanked Bai Xiaosheng in public for everything he had done for the Sixth Business Division, while Bai Xiaosheng humbly praised the effective organization of the Sixth Business Division and the competent management of its business leaders, claiming he simply played a role in leading and coordinating efforts…

Their words were met with continuous applause.

Subsequently, the banquet continued in such a harmonious and friendly atmosphere until it ended.

After the banquet, Mrs. Margery proactively contacted Vice Chairman Morgan, her account closely aligning with Reid’s.

Although Vice Chairman Morgan had already made arrangements, he feigned surprise as if hearing the news for the first time.

However, such subtle differences, Mrs. Margery could naturally discern.

She had anticipated that Kaleb and Reid would report before her, even predicting to some extent the level of their reports.

After all, Mrs. Margery was a woman whose intelligence rivaled that of Caroline.

Mrs. Margery simply went along with Vice Chairman Morgan’s emotions, without revealing the pretense.

In the following days, Bai Xiaosheng remained in Wan Yu, taking the opportunity to inspect several companies.

During this time, Bai Xiaosheng also deployed personnel to conduct on-site investigations of Kaleb’s affairs, sending multiple teams in a high-profile manner.

While openly investigating Kaleb, Bai Xiaosheng was in fact waiting for progress on Mrs. Margery’s arrangements.

Several days later, Mrs. Margery and Bai Xiaosheng had a private discussion.

The next day, Bai Xiaosheng took a flight from Wan Yu to Ganande in America.

At this point, the end of his corporate assignment was less than a week away.

Simultaneously, time was running short for Bai Xiaosheng to complete his task of advancing to Vice Chairman.

Bai Xiaosheng’s mood as he returned to headquarters was like that of a general readying for battle, solemn yet remarkably calm.

The outcome of victory or defeat, life or death, awaited the final moment!

Fortunately, Wen Yan was working tirelessly behind the scenes at headquarters, making all the necessary arrangements.

However, just as Bai Xiaosheng’s plane soared across continents, Wen Yan received a message from his office at headquarters.

A piece of less-than-ideal news!
