Chapter 118 [West Atlantics Int‘l headquarters, Capital City.)
The atmosphere in the company‘s regal building was dull and tense. The workers were all moving
about their daily activities with gloomy and forlorn expressions, unlike the usual bustling attitude they
had previously.
The employees were not to be blamed however, as they had already seen the negative news about the
chairman of their company. They were seasoned employees, so they knew how detrimental the effects
of such news could be to their company.
The higher ups, such as Erin and Zack, were more depressed at the situation at hand. The company
was still a very new one, so they were feeling aggrieved about the current turn of events. If their
chairman was unable to resolve this issue, then it would be a huge setback in their already laid out
plans.
The news had been embellished greatly by the media, so it had succeeded in creating a false
impression about the chairman of West Atlantics Int’l.
The public didn’t know the full details regarding the accident, and they only believed what they were fed
by the media, so it was understandable why they hurled insults and looked down unfavorably on West
Atlantics Int‘l.
While Erin and Zack were at a loss on what to do, Darius arrived at the company. After parking his
vehicle, he entered the building and headed straight to Erin‘s office.
“Mr. Reid!” Erin exclaimed in surprise when she saw Darius walking towards her in haste with a stoic
expression on his face. It had just been less than an hour since she called him last, yet he was already
present at the company. She couldn‘t imagine how fast he must have driven to get here so quickly.
“Call every higher ups in the company and tell them that we‘re having a meeting in five minutes.”
Darius ordered as he glanced at Erin and exited the office before continuing walking towards the
conference room.
Erin jolted back to her senses and nodded subconsciously at Darius‘ instructions before scurrying away
to obey his instructions.
The company‘s internal structure was no longer the same as it had been. With over 1,000 employees
working currently in the company and the number growing by the day, the company would definitely not
continue to operate in the same manner as before.
When the higher–ups received Darius‘ orders, they immediately halted their actions and rushed to the
conference room. They had been waiting for Darius to arrive and address the situation for quite some
time. They dared not dally now that he was finally around to deal with the problem
Sure enough, in less than five minutes, the conference room was filled with the higher ups already
present.
These higher ups were the core of the company, and majority of them were handpicked by Darius
painstakingly; therefore they heeded Darius‘ words with utmost respect.
“I trust we all understand why we‘ve gathered here.” Darius stated flatly. He didn‘t want to waste any
time on pleasantries, so he got right to the point.
“I‘m certain that by now you all have seen the news and rumors about me circulating on the internet.”
Darius started, as he looked straight into the eyes of the people present.
“Well, they‘re mainly false.” Darius said.
The higher–ups, including Zack, breathed a sigh of relief when Darius clarified his viewpoint. Although
they had never believed the rumors about their chairman, they were relieved to learn that they were all
false and that Darius had confirmed it himself.
Darius then went on to explain the real incident behind the accident. Of course, he left out several
details including when he paid for Vera‘s medical bills and the special paper the old man left for him.
There was simply no need to include them in his story.
“Now that we all know the truth behind the false rumors, we can say that everyone is on the same
page.” Darius said after taking in the relieved expressions of his subordinates.
He was well aware that he needed to improve his image in the eyes of his subordinates. His first step
would be to eliminate any possibility of doubt. After all, it was a new company, and while he was certain
that they were loyal to him and the company, the sense of unity between them had not yet formed.
Darius then informed the higher ups to pacify the lower ranked employees. He was not a fool. He
wasn‘t a moron. The employees were probably wondering if they had made the right decision by
leaving their companies and working for West Atlantics Int‘l. They needed to be appeased in order for
them to remain in West Atlantics Int‘l.
He then dismissed the higher ups and sent them on their way; and only Zack and Erin remained
behind.
“Hand me the detailed reports you‘ve compiled so far.” Darius ordered authoritatively.
Erin quickly fetched the reports and handed them over to Darius. Darius collected them from her
outstretched hands and read through the reports.
He had already informed Bruce to erase any news about his car accident and the old man‘s death.
With how efficient Bruce was, Darius was sure that in a few minutes time, the news would surely die
off.
In a matter of seconds, Darius was engrossed in the reports about the company. It remained that way
for over thirty minutes. Just when Erin and Zack thought that Darius would not separate himself from
the reports, his phone rang.
He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Bruce before answering the call.
“Young Master Reid, I have dealt with the issue. They are no longer any false news and rumors about
you.” Bruce stated as soon as Darius answered the phone call.
Darius smiled knowingly and thanked Bruce sincerely before disconnecting the phone call.
He then took another long look at the reports Erin had given him before laughing mysteriously.
Capital City was the best city for a company to develop. It was completely expected for a new company
like West Atlantics Int‘l to be targeted by the titans in Capital City after witnessing its growth speed.
After all, no one wanted another company to grow strong enough to compete for the resources with
them.
After reading the reports, he was sure that the person behind the rumors and news was from Capital
City, and a pretty powerful adversary at that.
Darius grinned. Now that the person had had his fair share of his fun, it was time for him to
counterattack
