Chapter 39: Overconfidence


    After the morning jog, Katherine came to thepany after returning home to change her clothes.


    As soon as she entered the office, Be, the manager of the Finance Department hurried over and


    said, "Miss Hunt, I have something to report."


    Since Ewan was dismissed a while ago, the position of deputy general manager had been vacant.


    In order to mollify Sidney, Old Lady Hunt let Katherine be temporarily the deputy general manager and


    concurrently as the person in charge of the project in Binhu District. It could be said that Katherine was


    the most powerful person in thepany except Old Lady Hunt.


    It was precisely because Katherine had taken Ewan''s position that Ewan hated Katherine''s guts.


    "What''s the matter?"


    Be hesitated slightly and asked tentatively, "Miss Hunt, have you agreed to give the money to Mr.


    Hunt?"


    "What do you mean?" Katherine felt something was wrong.


    "Today, Mr. Hunt came to the Finance Department early in the morning, brought the proof you gave


    him, and took away 1.5 million dors, saying that he was going to buy building materials."


    Katherine was shocked and cried out, "How is it possible? How could I give it to him? Besides, he and I


    are against with each other. Even if I have to buy building materials, I won''t let him do the stuff. Why


    don''t you tell me in advance? "


    "I…"


    Be was a girl less than thirty years old. When she was scolded by Katherine, she panicked and felt


    wronged.


    Katherine knew that her attitude was not good.


    Be was not to be med for this incident. Ewan was domineering and fierce. Although he was


    dismissed, he was the young master in the Hunt Family, the grandson of Old Lady Hunt. Everyone in


    thepany was afraid of him.


    A little manager naturally didn’t dare to offend him.


    "Did you see the proof clearly?" Katherine was so angry.


    "Yes, it is indeed your official seal on it. The seal was brightly printed and it looked like that it was put


    on just now. So I didn''t doubt it. I wanted to call you, but Mr. Hunt scolded me, so..."


    Katherine quickly opened her drawer. Sure enough, her official seal was gone.


    This guy actually stole the official seal.


    How did he get in? Only she and her secretary had the key.


    Her secretary...


    Katherine was about to make a call. Be asked cautiously, "Miss Hunt, are you calling May?"


    "Yes."


    "She and Mr. Hunt left."


    Be was able to be a financial manager so she was not stupid. She guessed, "It''s obvious. May


    opened the office and gave the official seal to Mr. Hunt. The two forged proof. They might go out to


    have fun now!"


    "Asshole!"


    Katherine patted the table fiercely.


    She had never been so angry before. May was promoted by her. Katherine was very kind to May.


    Besides, she gave May high sry. She did not expect to be betrayed.


    This feeling was really unspeakable. Although she was angry, she felt more upset.


    The assets of the Hunt Family were not much. Although they signed a contract with Chengyu Group


    and got some design and construction funds, 1.5 million was not a small amount after all.


    If she didn''t pursue it, Old Lady Hunt would think it was her who took it away.


    "No, we have to chase it back."


    Katherine gave the call.


    After a few seconds, the phone connected. Azy voice came from the other end.


    "What’s up?"


    "Ewan, do you know what you are doing? Embezzlement of public funds! You want to be expelled from


    the family?"


    Ewan chuckled, "What am I afraid of? You took this money. It has nothing to do with me."


    "What do you mean?"


    "Don''t y dumb with me. I got on you. As long as I want to do it, you will fall into disrepute and


    be a celebrity in J City and even the Inte."


    Ewan became more and more angry. His voice became sharp and harsh, "Damn it, fight with me? I will


    kill you!"


    "I don''t know what you are talking about. Give the money back quickly. Otherwise, I will tell Grandma.


    You are waiting to be..."


    Beep, beep.


    The phone was hung up!


    Katherine was so mad and anxious.


    ording to the noise from the phone, Katherine knew Ewan was having fun in the club. This jerk!


    "Miss Hunt, report to Old Lady Hunt. I will help you testify it."


    Katherine looked back and saw Be''s firm expression.


    "After all, they took the money from me. Because I was afraid of Mr. Hunt, I didn''t call you to confirm. I


    have an inescapable responsibility. Regardless of the consequences, even if I will be dismissed or


    demanded forpensation, I will ept it!"


    Besaid firmly.


    This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Katherine was very pleased that thepany still had such employees. Her anger had finally been


    reduced a lot.


    "Don''t worry. This is Ewan''s responsibility. I will protect you."


    At nine o''clock, Old Lady Hunt came to inspect thepany.


    In the meeting room, she was talking with Lewis and other top executives.


    Suddenly, without any warning, two people rushed in.


    "Katherine, where is your manner? So rude. Now you don''t even take your Grandma seriously, right?"


    Lewis seized the opportunity and began to stir trouble.


    His son was dismissed because of Katherine, so he was naturally full of anger and hatred.


    Old Lady Hunt frowned and looked unhappy.


    Katherine nced at Lewis and then walked quickly to Old Lady Hunt''s side, saying, "Grandma,


    something has happened. Ewan was so bold and forged proof of purchasing building materials. He


    took away 1.5 million dors from thepany and went to the clubhouse to have fun!"


    The meeting room fell into dead silence.


    Lewis wanted to scold Katherine again. After hearing that, he waspletely dumbfounded.


    Then, he yelled hysterically, "Katherine, don''t talk nonsense."


    Several rtives on the united front with Lewis were also ming Katherine at this moment.


    "Katherine, Ewan has been dismissed. Why are you still targeting him?


    "Huh, what a mighty prestige."


    "I think the deputy general manager is going to frame Ewan. She has the power in her grip now. We


    can''t offend her."


    Old Lady Hunt gradually recovered and frowned, "Are you sure? Or did you deliberately frame Ewan?"


    "Grandma, you had watched me grow from childhood. Don''t you know what kind of person I am?


    Maggie has been targeting me, but I still promote her."


    This was indeed true.


    The rtives gradually became quiet. Lewis was nervous.


    "Old Lady Hunt, I can testify."


    Be stood up and said firmly, "Mr. Hunt stole the official seal of the deputy general manager, forged


    the proof of appropriation, and threatened me to give him money."


    "Grandma, we can watch the surveince video."


    Old Lady Hunt gave an order, "Bring the surveince video over!"


    A man ran out in a hurry. Soon, he came with hisputer in his hand.


    The surveince video was ying.


    In the picture, the secretary, May, opened the office and took out the official seal. Ewan put his arm


    around her waist. They left while talking andughing. Then they appeared in the Finance Department.


    After leaving a few minutes, the two appeared in the parking lot.


    They drove away in a Mercedes.


    Old Lady Hunt''s face was cold. She was furious, "How dare he!"


    Lewis''s legs softened and he almost knelt down.


    He couldn''t understand why Ewan dared to do such stupid things during such a sensitive period.


    Besides, Ewan didn''t know to delete the surveince video.


    Even in the screen just now, Ewan deliberately raised his middle finger to the monitor.


    Too arrogant!


    "Mom, calm down. Ewan must have his own difficulties."


    "Difficulties? If he has some difficulties, why will he be so proud and embezzle the public funds to take


    female employees to go outside for fun?"


    Old Lady Hunt used her walking stick to hit Lewis, and shouted sharply, "Let this little bastarde


    back and give me an exnation. Otherwise, just get out of the Hunt Family."


    Lewis panicked. He called Ewan quickly.


    The rtives condemned Ewan for being stupid. At this moment, the bnce in many people''s hearts


    began to tilt.


    Half an hourter, the door of the meeting room was knocked open.


    Ewan rushed in with embarrassment. Before he could speak, Old Lady Hunt pped him back, and hit


    his leg with her walking stick.


    Puff.


    Ewan knelt down with both knees.


    "Give me a reasonable exnation."


    Old Lady Hunt was fierce. Ewan, who was oppressed by Old Lady Hunt''s strong aura, was trembling in


    cold sweat.


    "Grandma, I, I..."


    Ewan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.


    He turned his head and stared at Katherine viciously, gritted his teeth.


    This bitch.


    How dare she?


    Was she not afraid of falling into disrepute, not afraid to be an "Inte celebrity"? Damn


    it.
