Chapter 459 Outstanding Talents


    Soon, they turned to look at Leo, with their eyes overwhelmed with shock.


    Just a moment ago, they seemed to forget that he was addressed as Mr. Cohen.


    While Ruben just said the one in charge of the branch of As in Hopkins was also called Mr. Cohen.


    Now the answer was obvious.


    At the thought of that, they felt like being shocked by greater horror.


    Not until now did they realize that they had just affronted someone they could never afford to offend.


    Both Caleb and n were those with incredible power and influence, whom they could never afford to


    mess up with. However, the two men were both bowing to Leo.


    Leo then handed the file over to Irene, “Just pass the file like that to Miss Garcia to decide. Now she is


    the only one in charge of the branch here.”


    What he said proved the status of Irene. Hearing that, both Ruben and Jemima looked stunned with


    regret. Meanwhile, n seemed to pay more respect while looking at her.


    He knew something about As, but the most news of which was about Lydia. So he had never heard


    about the name of Irene.


    Now she did impress him in some way.


    But Irene didn’t seem to notice the changes happening to them. She totally focused on the file.


    After reading the file for a few seconds, she proposed a few professional suggestions, some of which


    had even gone beyond what n could expect.


    He seemed quite amazed while looking at her again.


    “There is nothing to be improved in general. But a few strategic suggestions should be needed…” but


    Irene didn’t finish. Instead, she turned to look at Ruben and Jemima.


    n soon noticed that what she was about to continue must be involved with something confidential.


    So he hurried to make a call.


    “Tell the HR Department to initiate the discharge procedure of Ruben and Jemima. Now they are fired!”


    As soon as he finished, the poor couple both kneeled down in front of him, begging in panic, “Mr.


    Watts. Please! Please leave us a chance! We are so sorry!”


    “Mr. Watts, please, please don’t get us fired! It’s all on us!”


    “Fuck off!” n shouted with his fingers pointing at them, “I know what you’ve done in thepany!”


    “Jemima, one of the coteral of the Watts, pulled strings to get yourself a job in J Group. Meanwhile,


    you also got your husband a job in the same way so as to fulfill your selfishness.. Am I right about


    that?”


    Wearing a pale face, the couple were then driven out. Meanwhile, a series of gossips started to surge


    up among the rest of the restaurant.


    What happened just now had gone beyond everyone’s expectation.


    Annoyance started to mount on Jemima’s soberness. The longer she fixed her eyes on Ruben, the


    stronger her hatred was growing.


    Suddenly, she pped on his face.


    “You fucking bastard! What’s wrong with you? Why did you mess up with Irene? Now you see, huh? It’s


    over! Our jobs are over! Our lives are fucked up!”


    Ruben looked a bit pissed because of the p, “I don’t even know that guy is so influential! Can you


    freaking believe that even Irene is the VP of As!”


    Jemima continued with a pale face, “We’d better think about a convincing exnation to tell grandpa…”


    “But I am just a grandniece of his. I was trying to get a job in the J Group and do something to make


    myself a bit more trustworthy in the family. But now I am literally fired so soon! What can I do?”


    Hearing that, Ruben turned to be horrified once again. Even going home seemed so challenging for


    both of them at this moment. How ridiculous!


    Meanwhile, after the proposal for the financial support was settled, Leo suddenly squinted at n to


    question, “n, I told you to get rid of the Watts nted inside the J Group. All of them. But what’s


    going on with that one named Jemima?”


    His voice sounded serious. Though it looked like a trifle, it might probably turn into a disaster.


    Under the gaze of both Irene and Caroline mixed with great surprise, n actually got down on his


    knees in front of Leo, looking flustered.


    “Mr. Cohen, I have done everything as you said. I have fired everyone else from the Watts. But there is


    still something I could nevery my hands on.” While speaking, n appeared to be guilty.


    “What do you mean?” Leo squinted seriously. His eyes started to grow alert, “I know it has been a

    challenging job to explore the market in Hopkins. But remember, I also suggested you turn to Forrest if


    needed.”


    Hearing that, Irene was stunned. She couldn’t help staring at Leo.


    As the VP of As, Irene had met a lot of those among the upper ss, including Forrest, the head of


    the Kingston Chamber of Commerce.


    Actually, Forrest had ever been to the building of As to invite Lydia to join the Kingston Chamber of


    Commerce.


    But Lydia declined to take the offer.


    At that moment, Irene was there. So she had ever seen Forrest for once. But it had never urred to


    her that Leo actually got a connection with him.


    But n still shook his head, “But I am afraid even Forrest might fail to deal with it.”


    “Why?”


    Leo appeared a bit more curious.


    n let out a bitter smile, “Mr. Cohen, I am sure you could tell the reason. Hopkins has been the


    metropolis of economic artery in the state, while the business world of which has been controlled by


    two chambers ofmerce.”


    Leo nodded as Forrest had told him about it.


    “The Kingston and the JP Business Association, right?”


    “Yes, Kingston mainly remains dominant in Emerdale while JP has been the one in charge in Hopkins.”


    n added seriously, “Lane was the former president of J Group. While my father, the head of the


    family, Ayan Watt, is a member of JP. That’s why J Group had been financially supported by JP.”


    “But now I have taken over the group as the member of Kingston, which JP will never allow to happen!”


    “After I declined to join JP, they start their business attack against us.”


    “But does it have anything to do with the job Jemima got in the J Group?” Leo frowned.


    n continued, “The two chambers had once been in a business war around the J Group for a while.


    They both suffered some losses to some extent. So finally, they made apromise respectively—J


    Group would join Kingston but some cooperation projects with the members of JP must remain.”


    “Besides, the Watts must have the right to get themselves a position for each in the J Group. And I


    agreed. That’s why some of the Watts has been working in the group while the one named Jemima is


    just a nobody.”


    Hearing that, Leo frowned even more.


    He seemed to underestimate the threat.


    The enemy was stronger than he expected.


    “Who proposed this solution?” asked Leo.


    n answered slowly, “Jonah.”


    “Who?” Leo had never heard of him. Nor was he included within the list of the Watts.


    n exined seriously, “He is in the next generation of ours. Besides, he appears to be the most


    excellent one among his peers in the family. While he is also one of the board of directors of J Group.”


    “He has a twin sister. Her name is Laura. They had been studying abroad. They just returned home


    recently. And now they are both known as outstanding talents.”
