Roar of the Supreme Warrior -
Chapter 221
He looked at Howard and said, "Howard, promptly investigate the matter. If Thea was behind this all along, she won't be let off the hook that easily."
"Yes."
Howard nodded.
Meanwhile, Tommy wore a scheming look on his face. He flashed Wendy a victorious smile.
Lex stood up and headed upstairs to rest.
In the hallway on the first floor, Howard looked at Tommy. "Did you have anything to do with this?"
Discomposed, he hurriedly explained, "What are you talking about, father? How's that possible?"
Howard said coldly, "This is no small matter. If anything happens, it'll bring about the destruction of the Callahans. Thea is no fool. She couldn't have done such a thing."
Tommy indeed panicked when he saw the deceased's family making a commotion.
That was because his plan should have been flawless. He only wanted to create trouble for Thea. Although something was wrong with the medicine, it was not supposed to be fatal.
"Father, Thea's bossing us around. If this continues, she'll be the master of the family."
Tommy let the cat out of the bag.
"That's right. It was me. I bribed Yosef Zaborowski, who was in charge of handling the medicine, and ordered him to substitute them for substandard ones. I only wanted to show Thea who's boss. I didn't expect things to almost go out of hand."
Smash!
Howard slammed the table.
Tommy hurriedly explained, "Father, I did this for your sake. Although we now have twenty percent of the shares, Thea had used all the profits to expand the business. Since we didn't get anything out of it, wha use is there for the twenty percent shares? Only by getting rid of her can we get more money and ensure the power of the family will be in our hands."
Megan chimed in, "Father, you're the eldest son of the Callahans. You should be the one calling the shots, not Thea. Look at what happened today. They paid the compensation without even asking for grandpa's permission. Does she have grandpa's and your interest in mind?"
Upon hearing this, Howard nodded.
"Since it has come to this, we can only shift the blame on her. I'll replace Yosef and make the necessary arrangements."
Howard swiftly stood up and headed to Eternality Group.
A sixty-year-old man entered the vice-chairman's office in Eternality Group.
"Howard, I heard you were looking for me."
Howard looked at the man before him and asked, "Yosef, you've been working at Eternality for twenty years now, haven't you?"
Yosef nodded and sighed. "Yes. Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye. I remember Eternality was still a tiny workshop when I first joined. Now, it's become a huge corporation."
Howard put a card on the desk and pushed it toward Yosef.
"Howard, w-what's this?"
Howard said, "Yosef, you're nearing retirement. There are a million dollars on this card. It should be enough for you for the rest of your life. Tomorrow, I'd like you to accuse Thea as the mastermind behind the substandard medicine."
"1..."
Yosef was at a loss.
"Relax. No one knows you conspired with Tommy. Besides, I won't be pursuing the hundred thousand dollars matter further. Once things are done, take the card and retire with dignity. Otherwise, you'll be exposed for conspiring with Tommy. You wouldn't want to enter a legal battle just before retirement, would you? Do as I say. Shift the blame onto Thea and insist she held you hostage by threatening to fire you if you speak up."
Yosef looked at the card on the desk. Greed flashed across his face.
He had devoted himself to Eternality for twenty years with a meager salary. It would not be bad to make a quick buck before he retired.
"I'm in."
"Good."
Howard wore a satisfied expression.
