Chapter 1506


    If Daniel listened to Matthew''s order and let the agent stay behind, his prestige among these people


    would plummet—not only was he the leader, but he also instigated the agents to threaten Charles this


    time. Most importantly, if this agent stayed, then whatever conspiracy they had with Nevend


    Pharmaceuticals would be exposed. There was no doubt that Matthew would force everything out of


    the agent''s mouth. By then, they would inevitably be enemies.


    As much as Daniel wanted to disobey Matthew''s order, he was at his wit''s end. After all, this was


    Eastcliff, Matthew''s turf! His words were treated as scriptures here; if he wanted to keep this agent,

    then he would. No one, not Nevend Pharmaceuticals, let alone a nobody like Daniel, would be able


    to save the agent.


    Since Daniel wanted to reply to Matthew as diplomatically as he could, he contemted for a long time


    before he finally said, "Mr. Larson, I trust that the benevolence between us still exists even though we


    were unable to conclude a contract. Yes, Casey did rescind the contract with yourpany, but this is


    only temporary. As you know, words spread like wildfire. If you really make him stay behind for such a


    trivial thing, others will only see Cunningham Pharmaceuticals as an overbearingpany. Who would


    dare to continue cooperating with you in the future?"


    Daniel tried to pressure Matthew with the possibility of negative public perceptions; he would ensure


    every agent trying to do business with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals knew that Matthew was too


    domineering if he insisted on making Casey stay. He believed that would surely destroy Matthew''s


    business.


    Matthew sneered at Daniel as he didn''t take Daniel''s threat to heart at all. Cunningham


    Pharmaceuticals would only coborate with the Ten Greatest Families of Eastshire in the future, so


    why would he consider other people''s opinions? Now would be an excellent time to gradually eliminate


    other agents.


    "I will show you the true oppressive side of mine. What can you do if I decide to make you all stay?


    Hm? President Edwards?" Matthew replied coldly. Not in a million years would Daniel expect Matthew


    to be holding his ground that firmly, and Daniel looked appalled—he calcted everything but didn''t


    think of the possibility that he would have angered Matthew. Damn it, Daniel, you did it now. You got


    yourself into trouble with that smart mouth of yours.


    Daniel tried to redeem the situation as he hurriedly smiled to cate Matthew. "President Larson, I


    think you misunderstood what I meant. I... I didn''t mean it this way. C-Casey was disrespectful, and he


    shouldn''t have threatened Charles. How about this? Casey, go and apologize to Mr. Wesley. We''ll turn


    over a new leaf after that, and I—"


    Before he could finish speaking, Matthew cut him off, "We don''t ept apologies here! Daniel, I am


    giving you onest chance. Leave with your men now, or all of you will stay with him!" Daniel''s face


    turned livid at Matthew''s ultimatum; he knew he was deep in the game and had to y by Matthew''s


    rules. In the end, he didn''t dare to say anything more but left hastily with everyone else except for


    Casey. Casey knew he had been abandoned when he could only watch helplessly as everyone else


    scurried away, but he couldn''t even speak up in protest. After all, Matthew was just right before him.


    Matthew couldn''t be bothered by Casey or the other agents. Therefore, he approached Charles,


    wanting to make sure he was all right, to which Charles responded in the affirmative and left. As


    Charles was driving away, Matthew waved his hand, and right away, a fewckeys came out from the


    side and immediately took Casey away.
