    Chapter 700


    “Fools! Fools! What a bunch of fools!”


    Apanied by the smashing of items, a deranged roar echoed in the presidential office of Soaring


    Corporation.


    The secretaries and executive assistants exchanged nces. They hung their heads low helplessly


    and continued their work as though they didn’t hear themotion.


    Tony, the executive assistant soon received an inte call. The number caused him to hesitate


    momentarily before he answered it politely, “Mr. Harrington. Mr. Cody isn’t at work today.


    “I don’t think I have the right to ask for his personal business. Yes. I shall ry the message once he’s


    back.”


    Once the call ended, his colleagues began texting in the group chat.


    “Is Mr. Harrington calling for a BOD meeting?”


    “Please, don’t. Can he not cause trouble?!”


    “The King is on the verge of losing his sanity. Give him another blow, and we’re dead meat.”


    “When will this end?”


    “If this continues. I’m gonna resign. The pay is high, but the pressure as a presidential management


    staff is taking a toll on me. We’re on tenterhooks whenever the King loses his temper. This is hell.”


    “Talking about handling the pressure, can anyone beat me in that?”


    Sighing, Tony rose from his seat.


    He tidied his clothes and straightened his back. His soldier–like expression spoke of determination and


    despair at the same time.


    He informed the others. “I’m ready.”


    The others cast him a sympathetic look.


    He walked to the door to the presidential office. He knocked on the door only after taking a deep


    breath.


    “Mr. Cody.” he called, and themotion in the office stopped.


    Seizing his chance, he said everything in one go, “Mr. Cody, Mr. Harrington called for a BOD meeting a


    moment ago. May I know when you will be free?”


    Anxiously, he stood right there while waiting for an answer. However, all he received was stilling


    silence.

    “Mr. Cody?” Tony prompted gingerly. “Are you alright?”


    This time, he received a response. Something smashed against the door, causing it to shake, Tony,


    who was surprised, took a stride backward.


    “Scram!” Cody shouted in fury. Tony ran back to his seat without a second thought. His heart was


    palpitating.


    “That’s he scary,” he typed. “It’s Code Red, everyone. Do not provoke the King unless it’s something


    very important.”


    “Who has the guts to do that? That’s suicide!


    “Say, did something tick the King off? Is thepany going bankrupt?”


    “I’m not sure about that, but His Majesty’s project is a flop. We lost a lot of money. There’s nothing to fill


    the pit right now. That’s why Mr. Harrington has been calling in for a B00 meeting every single day.”


    “Let me add something. His Majesty seriously gotta up his game. He’s nowhere as capable as Mr.


    Rogers. Anyways, I’m gonna leave even il Soaring still manages to sustain itself. The King loses it


    every single day. I can’t take it anymore.”


    “Now that you bring it up. I’m thinking of leaving too


    “Me too


    Cody, who was in the presidential office, was unaware of the ruckus outside.


    After smashing thest item on his desk he flopped into his chair like a lifeless person.
