Chapter 1104
Those small fries are still on it! But why?!
Looking at Jack''s serious expression, Grayson had no choice but to ept the truth. His hands formed
tight fists on his table while the wrinkles on his countenance rendered him appear older. His eyes
spoke of helplessness. "What went wrong?"

I just don''t get it. We apologized! Why are they still making a fuss over it?
Jack lowered his head as he saw through Grayson''s mind and a flicker of disdain shed across his
eyes.
Things have escted to this point and President Lore hasn''t realized his mistake yet. Geez. It seems
like I gotta consider Joshua''s advice to resign from my position and look for a new job. If this continues,
thepany will be led to its downfall by its very own incapable leader.
In spite of that, Jack kept it to himself and wore a worried expression. "President Lore, what should we
do now?"
Grayson tightened his fists without uttering a word, for he was clueless as well. Previously, he returned
to the old manor to discuss with Harry on how to retain the rtionship between their family and Toby.
After that, he rushed back to thepany to appease the shareholders since he had to give them an
exnation regarding the stock market crash.
Who would have known that such things would happen right after he promised them that the stock
price would rebound? Jack mentioned how the stock price dwindled profusely instead of going up after
the apology statement was released.
How could he ept the truth? It waspletely different from what he had thought of.
With that statement, he assumed that Sonia and the unreasonableizens would stop the bacsh
against his family andpany, as well as forgiving Lte.
Sonia should''ve forgiven us instantly, that was what he thought at first. Considering Harry and Toby''s
rtionship, she should''ve done that.
Even if Toby was angry at the Lore Family, he would never turn his back against them. Instead, he
would stay on good terms with them.
Sonia should''ve thought of that and get over this issue. She should''ve forgiven Lte after our
apology, but that woman did not do that! She even said that it''s an empty apology without sincerity!
Indeed, they were not sincere with their apology; they were not willing to apologize to that kind of
woman either.
It was because the Lore Family did not perceive Sonia as the perfect match for Toby, but Lte was.
If they offered their genuine apology, would it not imply how much they acknowledged Sonia as the
perfect partner for Toby?
If that happened, what would people say when Lte and Toby were together?
Grayson could never allow that to happen, hence the apology statement released on purpose.
Although they were mere empty words, they apologized nevertheless.
Shouldn''t Sonia Reed ept it as it is? We''re going to reconcile with Toby anyway. When that time
comes, isn''t she worried that we might speak bad of her in front of Toby and make him hate her? Sonia,
oh, Sonia. What a stupid little girl. Why can''t you think of this?
The self-conceited Grayson disyed contempt toward Sonia on his visage, yet he did not take Toby''s
love for her into ount, which weighed much heavier than Toby''s perception of Lore Family. In
actuality, Toby would not reconcile with them, let alone hate Sonia just because they drive a wedge
between them.
All and still, he overestimated the Lore Family''s position in Toby''s eyespared to Sonia. Grayson
was the exact epitome of being doused by his own fantasy and blinded from the truth. As for the
netizens, he was really displeased with them.
To him, they were nothing but immature nobodies. In other words, how dare those small fries talk to
someone of high status like Grayson?
Isn''t it normal to not mention them in the statement? Why would someone sessful like me keep
bringing up some nobodies? What is there that they can''t ept? We mentioned Sonia and Toby, but
they should take it as an apology directed at them too! How dare they request me to apologize again!
In their dreams! Who do they think they are? Morons. How dare they force us to do anything!
The more he thought about it, the quicker his breathing became. However, he soon recollected himself
and snorted coldly.
Just let those idiots be, Grayson. Let''s see how far they can go. Think we''re going to fall just like that?
Impossible!
Anxious, he looked at Jack. "Just let them be and inform the staff to stabilize the stock price."
Hearing that, Jack heaved a silent sigh while eximing how stupid his boss was. He never expected
Grayson to be this incapable in saving thepany. It was indeed the Lore Family and the employee''s
bad luck for having such a leader.
Still, the boss remained the boss. He suppressed his thoughts while fixing his sses before asking,
"President Lore, we can stabilize the stock price, but that won''t solve the issue. As long as theizens
don''t stop, the stock price will decline no matter how many times we do it. It''ll be troublesome if it hits
rock-bottom."
One would realize that it was a useless n if they had the brain to think, but Grayson was not one of
them. Instead of sensing something amiss with his n, he was displeased with Jack''s doubts. "What''s
troublesome? I doubt theizens will lead us to bankruptcy. Enough, just do your job and stop running
your mouth."
From that impatient tone, Jack could tell how Grayson was oblivious of the gravity of the issue. As
such, a wave of helplessness washed over him.
Nevermind. I''ll think of what to write in my resignation letter after tonight. I should leave this hellish
company and superior before things get any worse.
He forsake the idea to persuade Grayson because it was redundant to do that to someone who was
foolishly stubborn; he would rather not waste his precious time. After all, it was not hispany that
was going bankrupt.
As an afterthought, he nodded and left. "Okay, President Lore. I shall do that right away."
Grayson''s phone rang the moment Jack left. It was a call from the shareholder, who insisted he head to
the conference room, rendering him in distress.
Just a moment ago, he promised to rebound the stock price, but things did not turn out as he wished
and the stock price declined further. Thus, the displeased shareholders were eager to listen to his
exnations.
Grayson ced back the telephone and sighed in frustration. In the end, he stepped out of the office
and strode to the conference room, admitting his fate.
Despite being the president of Lore Communications, the shareholders actually possess most of the
authority. That was why he could never turn a deaf ear to their requests.
In the meantime, Sonia and Toby arrived at Bayside Residence.
Yet, they did not enter the residence immediately as they went to a nearby posh grocery store hand-in-
hand.
