The senior executives thought Andrew didn't want to talk about this because it was the first time he made such a mistake since he sat down as the president of the Lu Group.
The commotion was getting louder and more out of control.
All sense of order was lost, and it truly looked as if they were at a public market.
Staring at the executives coldly, Andrew's voice cut into the noise. "Have you all finished yet?"
he boomed, his voice like ice.
They all fell into silence upon hearing Andrew's voice.
It was without a doubt that they were terrified of him.
Andrew clasped his hands on the table and glanced at them one by one, his gaze lingering at those who spoke ill of Ashley.
"Mr. Liu, I heard you went off to your private estate yesterday. Nice woman you had with you, too. Much prettier than that hag you married, if I may say so myself."
"Ah, Mr. Lee! Congratulations on your baby! I'm sure your wife wouldn't mind your infidelity."
"And you, Mr. Guo...."
There was a sly and mischievous smile on Andrews face. One by one, he spilled the dirty secrets of the board members.
The faces of the board members grew pale. How could Andrew know about something as private as their secret affairs?
It was not surprising for high-level executives to be unfaithful to their wives. More often than not, they were blinded by money, and their true aspirations were gone.
There were so many gorgeous women in the world that sleazebags such as themselves could not resist the temptation.
It just happened that Andrew didn't want to speak out, or else everyone would lose face and feel embarrassed.
He had stronger morals compared to anyone else at the table, which was why he was able to use the information he knew against them.
The senior board members who were vocal just moments ago fell silent. They had their heads hung low, their eyes avoiding Andrew's cold gaze.
A moment later, Kelly spoke up, "This matter hasn't been investigated on yet, and we are still waiting to come up with the facts. We still have no idea what exactly is going on. What is the point on making such rash conclusions? If this matter is not really what we think it is, then we will be condemning innocent people. Wouldn't you all
you all done talking now?" he sneered.
His voice was as cold as ice.
The people in the conference room remained silent.
It was apparent that Andrew was infuriated--no one dared argue with him further.
"What? Why are you so quiet now? Where is your momentum? Weren't you just involved in a heated discussion? As the board members of the Lu Group, I see that it occurs naturally for you to make rash conclusions before getting straight to the facts. This is part of your work ethic, correct?"
No matter what had happened between him and Ashley, it was not up to them to make judgments!
Most of the people there were much older than Andrew. They could even pass for his father or even grandfather!
And now they were all red-faced because of Andrew's reproach.
At this point, they did not know how to respond.
"That's all for today," Andrew spat.
With that, the meeting ended.
Andrew walked out of the conference room. Hurriedly, Johnny went up to Andrew's seat and neatly packed up the papers Andrew had left.
After which, he straightened up and looked at the senior executives. "This morning, the President has asked reporters from all the media outlets to come to the Lu Group. We will put this video incident to an end," he announced.
After that, Johnny followed Andrew out.
The senior executives were left in the meeting room, looking at each other in dismay.
They were wondering how things would go from here, and how Andrew would be able to handle it.
