CHAPTER 381 ARREST WAYNE IN FRONT OF EVERYONE

Wayne almost couldn’t hide his joy. Previously, he could never trust Charles Sawyer completely. But

now he was sure of Charles’ abilities by witnessing what he taught him to crack Hannah down.

Therefore, Wayne firmly believed that he would win the Cooper Group sooner or later

He suddenly stood up from his seat and said, “I’m not qualified for this position yet. And I never thought

of taking up it.”

He was taking his stand.

Hannah glanced at him, thinking that it must be Charles who told him to say so—that was taking one

step back today for two steps forward tomorrow, and he could be trusted more easily for that.

As expected, Simon Moss quickly praised, “Wayne disappointed us before, but he grew up a lot after

what happened with his father. Now he has become much more responsible and stable, and he can

clearly know who he is. Instead of thinking big, he starts working in a down-to-earth way. I believe that

he’ll make something for himself one day.”

“I’m very grateful for your instruction.” Wayne seemed to be humble. He won Simon’s favor by using

language skills.

“You may sit down. If you develop well, the board can see your change.” Simon said to him earnestly.

“Yes.” Wayne sat back on his chair, and his heart how indescribably happy. Because he was hardly

ever praised for all that time, but he was recognized now for Hannah’s failure this time. So he attributed

all the credit to Charles.

He felt lucky that he had ignored Jane Cooper’s prejudice against Charles but chose to trust him. Now

thinking about it, he suspected that Jane’s death had only herself to blame. She must have tried to

seduce him. Otherwise, as such a tough man, Charles would never have something with that stupid

girl.

In the conference room, Wayne was secretly pleased, which was all noticed by Hannah.

Simon added, “So, you cannot take people at face value. Before, we all thought Hannah was a dark

horse in front of us, bringing a lot of interest to our company. But actually, she couldn’t afford any

setbacks and just ran away when getting into trouble. She’s never gonna do anything great after this, I

bet. Wayne, in contrast, is willing to learn from lessons after experiencing failures. A man like him will

accomplish great things sooner or later!”

Hannah didn’t refute him. Some executives were saying something agreeing with him, while others just

waited and saw.

Simon affirmed, “I’m not gonna say I’m one hundred percent sure, but I’m still eighty percent sure that

based on my experience over these years, he’s going to do better than Hannah does in the future!”

Hannah just looked at him. She did not suspect that there was a secret relationship between Simon

and Charles. Because he might not be so eager to carry out his plot just yet, and he would give himself

away if he didn’t succeed in colluding with Simon. He was never a fool, and he was stroked by her just

because of his self-conceit most of the time. So as long as he woke up to reality, he was not an easy

man to deal with.

And now Simon was putting her down like this, just because he wanted to get off his chest as losing an

important project on her. He deliberately used Wayne to deny her, to find a reasonable excuse to vent

his anger. However, Wayne seemed to take what he said seriously.

“I don’t want to say too much.” Simon said directly, “My own feeling is that I certainly don’t approve her

to be the future vice-president of the Group, cause she has no capacity to up to such an important

position. We haven’t hired an external vice-president before, cause it’s usually a member of the Cooper

family. But rules are fixed, not man. Currently, it’s difficult to single out a Cooper family member to take

responsibility. So I personally suggest that we should recruit a vice-president.”

“I agree.” A shareholders said. Others started to vote by raising their hands.

“I agree, too. The company shouldn’t shut down just because the Cooper family has no abilities!” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“Yes. You shouldn’t be the dog in the manger.”

The people in the conference room kept talking loudly, and Simon was the loudest of them all. The

atmosphere was kind of out of control. Obviously, Miguel’s face took on a bad-mood expression.

When he was gonna get mad, Hannah spoke.

“I disagree,” Hannah suddenly stood from her seat and said. Her intonation was determined, and even

forceful.

“You disagree? You just rely on the identity that you’re the president’s daughter...”

“You’ve just said a lot, is it my turn to speak now?” Hannah cut him short with a straight glance.

The one who talked paused again because of Hannah’s tough attitude. After all, Hannah was the

president’s daughter, so he didn’t dare to offend her too much.

“About the project, I apologize for nothing. I have utilized the best plan and calculated the most

accurate offer, so I haven’t done anything wrong!” Separating every word to emphasize, Hannah said,

“If you wanna say something is wrong...”

“If that’s not your mistake, then whose mistake is that? You wanna say the competitors are the ones to

blame? Sawyer Group is the one to blame?” Simon stated in a loud voice, sarcastically.

“Will you just hear me out!”

“I don’t want to hear anything! I can’t accept a person as irresponsible and arrogant as you running the

whole Cooper Group! Even if our company doesn’t allow both presidents to be external employees, I

would rather recommend Wayne for this position than trust you again!”

“Did you just mention Wayne?” Hannah smiled slightly with sarcasm.

“What is your look!” Simon looked green, “Now you look down upon him, actually, you’re not qualified to

look down on anybody like that! At least he has learned his lessons, what about you? You’re so

haughty!”

“You think he’s better than me to be Cooper Group’s vice-president?” Hannah asked.

“At least he’s better than you. What I want to say is that we should either hire an external vice president

or let Wayne fill this position. I can’t accept you anyway.” Simon said and turned to walk away. He didn’t

afraid to disappoint anyone at all and seemed a bit unruly. Obviously, he was determined to bring her

down.

Hannah just looked at how he turned away, looked as he flung open the door of the conference room.

Outside the room, three men in police uniforms suddenly showed up and said, “We work for the

supervisory department of Kensbury City, this is my badge, and this is the warrant for Wayne’s arrest!”

Not only Simon but all people in the conference room were rendered shocked.

“He’s facing charges arising from revealing trade secrets, now we need to detain him for investigation.”

After saying this, they walked straight into the meeting room without asking anyone and approached

Wayne, “Wayne, Please come with us for the investigation.”

Wayne didn’t even know what happened and numbly looked at the policemen in front of him.

He had no idea what law he broke to get arrested!
