"It's over, Boris." Carmelo's smile became even bigger when he heard that call. He said with a sad expression. "Oh, Theodore Griffith intentionally came to your front door and you decided not to accept him.
"Instead, you threw him out… If it were me, I would have accepted him with an open arm. If he wanted my daughter, I would cut down everyone who refused." Carmelo smirked. "He's a genius. Just take a look at your situation.
"I haven't been able to take your company despite my preparations. And everything is solved within eleven days.
"This is the man you have thrown away." Carmelo snorted and looked down on him. "Unlike you, I know when to take the opportunity. So… Enjoy your time."
Carmelo walked toward Boris and slammed the table. "I give you one more chance. Since Theodore Griffith wants you to suffer for another two weeks, you can bring your entire family in front of me. I might be able to save you. Understood?"
Boris looked down while gritting his teeth. He clenched his hands and put pressure on the table until it started to crack.
His Magic Power began to leak, creating pressure in the room.
However, Carmelo also released his own power, not afraid of him. "Ah, I forgot to tell you one thing. At the shareholder meeting, we have dismissed you from this position and I shall be the new leader. So, scram."
Boris rose from his seat and glared at him. His boundless anger was reflected in his eyes, but Boris decided to swallow his pride and walked to the door.
Before leaving, he took another look at the old man who betrayed him. "Both of you are going to regret this."
"It's you who will regret this." Carmelo snorted, knowing that Theo hadn't finished playing with them yet.
Boris dejectedly left the company, wondering if this was all Theo's plan.
Still, he never expected that Theo indeed crushed their company this easily.
He opened his Skylink and called Agata.
"Dad!"
"Sorry, Dear. I couldn't complete the task Theo had given me. This is a failure." Boris gritted his teeth. "I will be going home now."
Without anyone knowing, Boris used his power to go back to his house, recalling all the Mythical Rank Experts he had dispatched.
When he returned and met with the other Mythical Rank Experts, he lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry. It's my fault that this happens…"
"Don't tell me…" Stefano's face became pale.
"Yes. The Safulli Group has more shares than me now and has become the leader of the company now." Boris nodded with regret.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't stop that old man…" Efrem gritted his teeth and apologized.
"No need. The old man must have planned to leave me from the beginning. In other words, there are only two loyal investors in the first place. Now that I have lost my power, they're going to suffer too." Boris let out a long sigh.
When everyone looked down, Agata suddenly received a call.
"Eh?" Agata widened her eyes in shock, never expecting to see the guy that caused all this to call her. "Theo?"
That name immediately grabbed everyone's attention.
"What? Did that bastard still call you? The audacity of that bastard!" Ghita gritted her teeth.
"Well, are you together with the others right now?"
"Y-yes," Agata answered. "Theo… Did—!"
Before she continued, Theo said, "Put me in speaker."
Although Agata didn't know why Theo wanted to talk with the others, she still let him talk.
"You bastard. Have you gone insane? Now that we have lost the company, what are you going to do? I'm going to rip you apart!" Ghita couldn't contain her anger.
"Hahaha. What are you talking about? I told you that everything will be resolved in two weeks, right?"
"And do you think we could survive that long?"
"Of course not. I think you have missed one point. I'm sure Agata has told you about the message from Sir Leonardo, right? What's Pata Corporation to me?"
"A stepping stone…" Agata looked down and murmured in a low voice.
"Exactly. Haha."
"Can you stop laughing?" Boris asked politely. "I still don't understand what you're planning to do, especially when you said that word to me."
"Oh, I think you can share it with others now."
"It's exactly the same as what you expect my daughter to tell the others. I have fought you with all I've got!" Boris bit his lips.
"Yeah. The only reason I told you only that was because I knew that you would be defeated."
"What?" Boris rose from his seat.
"What do you expect? You're fighting me, fully knowing that the company that will attack you is none other than a clean company without any problem. There's no way you can win since you can't exploit their bad images. Basically, acquiring your company is nothing but assured. And unlike you, they don't have many enemies."
"Are you mocking us?" Ghita shouted and stepped forward, wanting to crush the Skylink.
"Nope. I just want to tell you that do you want to be like them? A company without many enemies? In fact, your reputation is going to surpass them."
"What do you mean?" Boris frowned.
"Well, before that, I want you to send three Mythical Rank Experts to kill Carmelo in his office in the Safulli Group. I will take care of the rest… So, who's up to turn the situation around?"
"What do you mean? Now that we're in this situation, we can't really go out right now."
"Do I need to be blunt when telling you my plan?" Theo let out a long sigh. "If they looked like a hero without enemies in public's eyes, I just needed to create the enemies and make him the public enemies.
"And now, you shall become the heroes and slay these villains. So, yeah. It's time to eliminate Carmelo along with his Safulli Group. That's all I can say… The rest will be explained in the news, bye."
Theo didn't hesitate to hang up as the room fell silent.
Boris glanced over to his wife as if signaling her to open the news.
She nodded and took out her Skylink before they all dropped their jaws to the ground.
